This ramble starts serious and ends on a light note. We talk about those days where you just need to have a good cry, even if, sometimes, it’s over something silly (like Ashley’s smiley toes in middle school). Lauren talks about how hard it is to want to be a social person when you’re just so drained from living day-to-day and how all of that is made even worse with social anxiety. Then, Lauren gives us a lesson on the word nihilism. Naz suggests she and Ashley and Lauren go on a girls’ trip som...

It’s a rrrraaaaaamble! How many of you who have had dental work followed all the rules? Were you wearing your rubber bands in middle school? Do you keep your trays in all day like they tell you? Let’s be real, what percentage of people who have dental trays actually need them and what percentage just got talked into them by their money-grubbing dentist? We talk a lot about dental work in this one. We obviously aren't sponsored by Invisalign! After all the tooth talk, your hosts take you back to ...

Ashley, Lauren, and Naz are back together for their first ramble in a long time, so they've got a ton of stuff on their minds. Like, what's up with kids today and Mickey Mouse?
