This week on Double Shot of Anna, the Annas take on the summer slump with a very special birthday countdown and a brutally honest mid-year check-in. Anna D reflects on the emotional rollercoaster of birthday season, modern dating expectations, and the art of “dilly-dallying” with a Diet Coke in hand. Meanwhile, Anna M shares updates on big creative wins, including finishing her book and launching a pet networking app.

Together, they unpack the subtle difference between “princess treatment” and bare minimum behavior, share sangria recipes, rant about fast food loyalty apps (Code Moo, anyone?), and expose which male friends dropped their podcast donations. Plus, there’s astrology, Target walks, summer freebies, and heartfelt thoughts on burnout and letting go of over-functioning.

This episode is everything July should be—chaotic, reflective, slightly sunburned, and definitely unsponsored.

This week on Double Shot of Anna, Anna M and Anna D dive into a raw and candid conversation about navigating life in uncertain times. From global tensions and humanitarian heartbreaks to lighthearted tales of awkward weddings, mistaken houseguests, and Olive Garden brunches, the Annas cover it all. Anna M reflects on recent travels, a surprise graduation speech, and a chaotic-yet-charming wedding in Arkansas. Anna D shares the ongoing trials of modern dating and her accidental stalker sightings. The two also introduce their new “10 Minutes of Activism” initiative and announce a travel-themed contest with a sweet prize. Plus, they celebrate a major podcast milestone and swap thoughts on physical therapy, pet politics, and Trump-shaped dog toys. It's therapy, it's chaos, it’s the Annas.

This week’s episode is what happens when a movie moment derails into mistaken identity, mild panic, and an unexpected flirtation in the hardware aisle. The Annas kick things off with a wild “meet-cute” that’s less Notting Hill and more Oops, You're Not My Ex. From there, they dive into what makes a partner truly thoughtful—spoiler alert: it’s not flowers, it’s remembering how you organize your pantry.

Then, it’s time to get real about AI in dating. Could bots be the answer to ghosting fatigue and awkward first messages? Or are we just outsourcing our emotional labor? And if you’ve ever confused a double-tap for a real connection, you're not alone—we're unpacking the fine line between attention and actual intimacy.

Plus, an international take on America's chaos, the anxiety of being paid in USD, and the quiet beauty of someone who just gets you.

Listen in for laughter, perspective, and maybe even a little hope. Because even bad dates can lead to good stories.
