On this week’s episode, we get real about the advice we wish someone had given us in our 20s and 30s. From people-pleasing, burnout, friendships, dating, and career pressure to learning how to stop caring about things that truly do not matter, we talk about the lessons that took us way too long to learn and the advice our moms never gave us. Some of it is funny, some of it is painfully accurate, and some of it honestly would’ve saved us a lot of stress.

On this week’s episode, we talk about why corporate culture acts like every email is a national emergency. From fake urgency and “ASAP” messages to pointless meetings and Slack panic, we get into why so many jobs feel unnecessarily stressful. We talk burnout, hustle culture, work anxiety, and the pressure to always be available even when nothing is actually that serious. Plus, we share our own experiences with workplace chaos, dramatic coworkers, and the corporate phrases that instantly ruin your day.

From MAGA losing it over Elmo speaking Arabic to the backlash around Sabrina Carpenter, it’s been a busy Arab American Heritage Month. We start with the reaction to Ramy Youssef and Elmo’s “habibi” moment, then get into the conversation around zaghrouta, what it actually means, and why Sabrina Carpenter’s comments sparked backlash. We also get into comedian Paul Elia after Google limited ads for his standup special over a Trump joke. And finally, we cover journalist Ahmed Shihab-Eldin, who has been detained in Kuwait for weeks after sharing publicly available videos related to the war on Iran, and why that matters for press freedom.

Every day feels like a bad season finale and honestly we’re exhausted. From genocide and ICE raids to the war on Iran and the Epstein files, it literally never stops.

If you’ve been feeling mentally drained, anxious, or just not okay lately, you’re not alone. We’re not okay, but we’re still here.
