It’s getting hot in here, so gather up your clothes…and get rid of them? Before diving into hot takes, Jess and Caroline talk budget hacks and clothing degradation, culminating in a few ideas for beating the consumerist mindset and some thoughts on what indulging really means.

And then, the main event: hot takes galore. Jess and Caroline argue, research, and kook out about emotional support animals, finding yourself, the name Lowery, what qualifies as evening, emails, sleeping on top of the comforter, and trendy terms that drive them crazy. Plus, it’s not mid-2024 if there’s no discussion of what qualifies as Brat Summer. It’s so confusing sometimes to be a girl.
