The Randy Incident & Brooks' BTS Obsession

What started as a casual conversation about Father's Day, summer, and concerts somehow took a hard left turn into Brooks' admiration for Jimin and BTS. Toni shares what it was like being in the crowd for the now-viral "Randy" and Luke Bryan moment at the Carolina Country Music Fest, while Brooks makes absolutely no apologies for spiraling into full (baby) ARMY mode. She even has one simple request: help make her bucket-list dream come true by meeting Jimin (her brother from another mother) and the rest of BTS. Whether you're here for country music, K-pop, or just two friends who can't stay on topic, this episode has a little bit of everything... and a whole lot of laughs.

We Were Latchkey Kids. Of Course We Don't Ask for Help.

In this episode of Two Gals and a Mic, Brooks and Toni take a trip back to the days of being latchkey kids, when "figure it out yourself" wasn't parenting advice, it was a way of life. The conversation explores how growing up with a fierce sense of independence shaped the adults they've become. Why is it so hard to ask for help? When does being self-sufficient cross the line into being stubborn? And why do some people mistake healthy boundaries for selfishness? Along the way, Brooks and Toni reminisce about following their family and friends into questionable decisions, getting into trouble because everyone else was doing it, and the strange reality that many of life's lessons were learned through trial, error, and a complete lack of adult supervision. It's a funny, nostalgic, and surprisingly honest conversation about growing up Gen X, learning to stop people-pleasing, and discovering that protecting your peace doesn't make you selfish -- it makes you responsible for your own well-being. So grab your house key, be home before dark, and join us for another episode of Two Gals and a Mic.

Stagione 1

Surviving the Heat, Wild Turkeys and Questionable Decisions

It’s hot. Not “summer is nice” hot… we’re talking full-blown survival mode. This week, Brooks and Toni spiral from heat exhaustion into stories that somehow include a drought, a determined little fish that refused to quit (“just keep swimming”), and the time Janet may or may not have accidentally given a guest PTSD. From dodging golf balls, to dumb college games that should’ve never existed, to wandering through the woods at night like that was a smart decision... it’s chaos, it’s questionable judgment, and it’s very on brand. Oh, and Brooks gives Toni a full education on Sandy Ridge’s absolutely unhinged, borderline terrifying wild turkeys. If you’ve ever made bad decisions in the heat... welcome. You’re among friends.

It’s Hot, We’re Miserable, and TikTok Won

It’s hot. Like… question your life choices... hot. This week, Brooks and Toni talk about surviving the heat, falling down the endless rabbit hole of Facebook Reels and TikTok, and why no matter how much we complain -- we’re absolutely not giving them up anytime soon. From mindless scrolling to “just one more video” turning into an hour (or three), it’s a painfully honest look at the apps we love to hate… and definitely can’t quit. Come hang out, laugh a little, and maybe feel slightly better about your own screen time.

Marathons, Mountain Roads, and Brooks’ Deliverance Detour

This week, Toni talks marathon life while Brooks reflects on the harsh reality of going from athlete to proud couch potato. Somewhere in the middle, Brooks defends her self proclaimed famous bowler hat, both of us spiral over the absolutely unhinged roads in West Virginia and Maryland, and Brooks retells the (now infamous) story of the time GPS sent her down the wrong road and straight into what felt like a real life Deliverance scene. It’s part fitness talk, part road trauma, part chaos.

We Started with Mandela Effects… Then Brooks Said WHAT?!

This week on Two Gals and a Mic, things took a turn… What started as a casual conversation about Mandela Effects quickly spiraled into full-blown conspiracy territory. From CERN theories to alternate timelines, Brooks and Toni go down the rabbit hole—and let’s just say… not everyone agrees. At one point, Brooks drops a statement that stops the entire conversation cold: she’s not convinced we actually landed on the moon. Toni’s response? “…what?” This episode is equal parts hilarious, uncomfortable, and way too real. If you’ve ever questioned reality (or your co-host), this one’s for you.

This Episode Got Hijacked by Our Phobias

This episode was supposed to go one way… and immediately went another. What started as a normal conversation quickly turned into a full-blown deep dive into phobias -- specifically flying insects, spiders, and the kind of irrational fear that somehow feels completely justified in the moment. From unexpected encounters to full-on panic reactions, we share stories that prove sometimes it’s not fear… it’s survival. If you’ve ever questioned why bugs exist or found yourself reacting way louder than necessary, this one’s for you.

Things We Don’t Do Anymore (And Why We’re Probably Haunted)

This week, we’re talking about all the things we swore we’d never stop doing… but somehow did. From childhood habits that disappeared to the weird realization that adulthood feels a little haunted sometimes. We get into scary movies, unexplained vibes, and the difference between being paranoid and having real woman’s intuition. Because let’s be honest… sometimes you just know.

Creepy Masks, Childhood Shenanigans and All The Chaos In Between

In this episode, Brooks and Toni take a nostalgic, chaotic dive into the strange things that terrified us as kids -- starting with the unsettling world of masks and why they've always been just a little too creepy for comfort. That trip down memory lane quickly spirals into stories about the questionable decisions we made growing up, our siblings who absolutely helped us get into trouble, and the kind of childhood logic that only makes sense when you're ten. Somewhere along the way, Brooks recounts her showdown with a tree that did not end in her favor. It's a mix of childhood fears, chaos and the kind of stories that make you wonder how we survived our youth in the first place.

Duck Hunt, Downward Dog, and Sunday Guilt

Sundays are supposed to be for rest. In theory. This week, Brooks and Toni attempt to talk about relaxing “just because we can” -- and quickly realize how uncomfortable that actually is. Why does doing nothing feel like we’re doing something wrong?? Somewhere between Sunday anxiety, motion sickness, Nintendo 64 nostalgia (yes, Duck Hunt made an appearance), yoga, meditation, and the strange pressure to always be productive, the conversation turns into a surprisingly honest look at why rest feels rebellious. If you’ve ever tried to relax and somehow ended up mentally reorganizing your entire life instead… this one’s for you.
