If We Started a Cult...

Explícito
What happens when two LARP-loving, fantasy-obsessed besties ask the completely reasonable question: "What if we started a cult?" (Relax, it's definitely a guild. Our imaginary lawyer made us say that.) This week, we're building the world's most wholesome "cult," complete with character classes, ridiculous guild rules, sacred snacks, side quests, chaotic good energy, and enough tabletop nerdiness to make your inner goblin feel seen. Grab your dice, your favorite bowl, and your emotional support cloak, we're rolling for initiative on the most unhinged episode yet. May your rolls be high, your snacks plentiful, your bowls never empty, and may you leave every tavern better than you found it.

Girls Girl Energy

Explícito
What does it actually mean to be a girls' girl? Jenn and Kellie dive into the good, the bad, and the downright petty, sharing stories about friendship, competition, jealousy, and the women who've had their backs when they needed it most. From bathroom compliments to "girl jail" offenses, this episode is equal parts chaotic, hilarious, and honest. Grab your favorite snack and join the conversation, because supporting women should be more than just a hashtag.

Kellie's Alive

Explícito
Well... we're back. If you've been wondering where we've been, this episode explains everything. What was supposed to be a short break turned into a medical emergency when Kellie landed in surgery with a bowel obstruction. One emergency procedure later (plus saying goodbye to 31 inches of extra skin in a panniculectomy), life hit the pause button in a big way. In this episode, we're talking about the terrifying moments, the unexpected wins, recovery, body image, gratitude, and the dark humor that somehow kept us laughing through it all. We also share why the podcast went quiet for a bit and what this experience taught us about slowing down, accepting help, and appreciating every single day. This one is raw, emotional, occasionally unhinged, and unmistakably Side Quest. Because sometimes survival becomes the biggest side quest of all. ⚡ Come laugh with us, cry with us, and celebrate the fact that... Kellie's alive.

The Father Figure Files

Explícito
In honor of Father’s Day, we’re opening The Father Figure Files, a chaotic, funny, and unexpectedly heartfelt deep dive into dads in all their forms. From biological dads to bonus dads, stepdads, grandpas, coaches, and every “dad energy” human who showed up when it mattered, we’re talking about the legends, the mysteries, and the men who taught us everything from life lessons… to questionable DIY solutions involving duct tape. We’re sharing dad stories, iconic dad logic, and the universal experience of being raised by someone who refuses to read instructions. Expect dad jokes, emotional whiplash, and a lot of love for the people who shaped us, even when they were emotionally unavailable but very committed to grilling. This one is equal parts laughter and appreciation, because fatherhood isn’t one thing, it’s a whole file system of chaos, effort, and showing up in your own weird way. Happy Father’s Day to the dads, the bonus dads, the stepdads, the grandpas, the coaches, and every father figure who did their best… even if their best involved zip ties and confident guessing.

Therapy Adjacent

Explícito
We asked AI to tell us who we are and then spent an entire episode unpacking the results. From eerily accurate observations to existential rabbit holes, we're discussing what our chatbots got right, what they got wrong, and why getting psychoanalyzed by a computer is way more unsettling than it should be. No therapists were harmed in the making of this episode—just our egos. 🤖💀😂

Character Development

Explícito
This week, we're pulling back the curtain and sharing a little more of who we are. From memories that shaped us to the realities of life today, we reflect on where we've been, where we're going, and the lessons we're still learning along the way.

Too Young to Feel This Old

Explícito
This week on Side Quest, Jenn and Kellie dive into body image, burnout, anxiety, aging, and the weird emotional rollercoaster of trying to function like a normal adult. It’s honest, chaotic, relatable, and somehow still funny.

Chronically Off Topic

Explícito
No outline. No structure. Barely a single completed thought. This week, Jenn and Kellie are fully embracing the chaos as they bounce from bad dates to public adventures, random life updates, mom commentary, side quests, and whatever else crashes into the conversation. It’s basically a long-form bitch sesh with microphones — and honestly? That’s the vibe. If you’ve ever started a conversation and somehow ended up twenty topics away from where you began, this episode is for you. Grab a drink, get comfortable, and come spiral with us. Also: we want to hear from YOU. Send us your stories, your questions, your drama, or topics you want us to dive into on future episodes. Nothing is off limits here.

More Than Our Bad Days

Explícito
For Mental Health Month, we’re diving headfirst into the chaos living inside our brains. We talk anxiety, burnout, intrusive thoughts, coping mechanisms, emotional avoidance, and the fine art of laughing through the pain. It’s honest, messy, comforting, and just self-aware enough to count as growth.

The Betrayal No One Prepares You For

Explícito
Your body is supposed to protect you… so what happens when it turns on you? In this episode of Side Quest, we get real about the quiet, confusing, and often invisible ways our bodies can betray us. From chronic illness and pain to mental health and burnout, we’re talking about what it feels like when the one thing you’re supposed to trust suddenly feels like the enemy. This isn’t a pity party—it’s honesty, frustration, dark humor, and figuring out how to keep showing up anyway. If you’ve ever felt like your body isn’t on your team… this one’s for you.
