Pop Culture Playdate with Sahar & Anna

Summer is officially in full swing, and Sahar and Anna are catching up on everything they've been up to lately. From planning a ladies' cocktail party to getting excited for the Hudson Home & Garden Tour, they're sharing all the fun seasonal happenings filling up their calendars. Then the ladies dive into the latest pop culture headlines & trending stories.

We react to the explosive Summer House reunion and the conversation surrounding West and Amanda's relationship, then turn our attention to a modern phenomenon: people whose online personas don't quite match who they are in real life.

From work travel and questionable self-awareness to the downfall of the slick back bun, we cover a little bit of everything this week. Plus: a deep dive into all the tiny things that give us the ick. Prepare to judge us accordingly.

This week we’re talking about the absolute chaos that is the month of May for moms - school events, sports, concerts, field trips, and somehow still needing to function like normal humans. We also discuss why family vacations sometimes require a recovery vacation afterward, plus all the pop culture news currently taking over our group chats: Spencer Pratt running for mayor, Met Gala thoughts, Sydney Sweeney discourse, and The Devil Wears Prada 2.

We kick things off by talking about the big, overwhelming feelings that come up in us as parents when our kids are mid-meltdown — because the tantrum is happening, but something is happening inside you too. Then we dive into Belle Burden's book Strangers and share our thoughts. Later, we get into the ever-escalating world of wedding party expectations — when did being a bridesmaid become a part-time job? We also have a conversation about "midnight ballerinas" and what that term actually means. And to close things out, Anna adds yet another entry to her legendary list of things she cannot stand - because the list is never truly finished!
