Society & Culture

Season 1

Dog Crazy

If you have a dog (or a cat, or any type of pet) you know the drill: there's never a short answer to any question involving your furry family member. Lisa and Larissa chat about their dogs and cover bootie struggles, poop analysis and birthday party hosting.

Hairbands, Hats & Hair

Can you get a hairband to stay on your head? How do you deal with a bad haircut? Related, how do you feel about hats? Lisa and Larissa share some pretty devastating hair stories as Larissa tries to figure out what’s next for her head.

These Are a Few of Our Favourite Things

No white dresses with blue satin sashes here, friends. Larissa and Lisa have their favourite versions of every day things. Coffee makers, slippers, even toilet seats. Yes, toilet seats. And seasons, and toothbrushes, and.....join us for a fun chat about some every day things that we love!

Is It a Date?

When you've been living with someone for a bit dates can be harder to define. It isn't just spending time together - or is it? What makes a date a Date? Larissa and Lisa discuss date ideas while trying to define what makes something a date - is it more attitude than activity?

Content or Carpet?

Do you watch award shows for the content (winners) or the carpet (fashion)? What about big sporting events - ones that have a cup or a bowl involved? Lisa and Larissa chat about red carpet trends and whether they can name any of the movies or shows or music or artists or teams...but there are strong opinions about sheers!

Backyard Basics and Beyond

Lisa and Larissa discuss backyard must-haves, nice-to-haves and dream-haves. What are the essential items needed to fully enjoy your backyard and help you make the most of each season? What luxury items do you think about and how do you decide if they’re worth it? Are you pro or con squirrel?

Your Morning Routine is Self-Care

Larissa is very committed to her morning routine and struggles to course-correct when that routine is interrupted. Lisa can roll with a less organized morning but has some specific morning requirements, like coffee. Family members, work commutes, appointments…how do our morning routines support us engaging in our lives and enjoying the rest of our day?

Where's My Phone?

Have you thought about how you use your phone? Perhaps more importantly, can you find your phone? And why do you need to find it - how are you using it? Larissa and Lisa did not grow up with cell phones and yet use them constantly, although differently. Join us for an exploration of how reliant we've become on them and also, why though?

Shopping in Our Crone (or soon to be Crone) Years

When you hear “shopping” do you get excited or steel yourself for an unpleasant task? Has your relationship to shopping changed as you’ve gotten older, gotten a full-time job, gotten to know yourself better? Lisa and Larissa explore the different stages of shopping, from teenage mall “freedom” to the tragic acceptance of pants.

Meet the Pauses: Peri and Meno

Perimenopause and menopause is a fact of life. There is a lot of information swirling around out there and feeling overwhelmed with it all seems to be the new normal.. Lisa and Larissa talk about their experiences, their worries and their attitudes towards surviving and maybe thriving during this time of inevitable biological change.
