Episode five kicks off with big news: the podcast is officially live! Ash and Mikaila celebrate their first downloads, spiral into millennial slang nostalgia, and debate everything from frosted tips to regional catchphrases while adjusting to the reality that Gen Z has words that mean… absolutely nothing.

The vibe is cozy chaos with wine in hand.

Then it’s time for Curtain Calls, the rapid-fire anonymous confessions and “am I the jerk?” dilemmas. Topics include:

• A disappearing parent who leaves their kid for “20 minutes” that turns into hours

• A secret child from an affair

• A truly baffling bathroom confession that raises more logistical questions than answers

The hosts weigh in with equal parts common sense and disbelief.

The episode’s centerpiece is a deep dive into a a story featuring family revenge, identity twists, and a medical storyline so outrageous it has to be broken down step by step.

Along the way, the conversation detours into college horror stories, roommate revenge, and the universal rule that you can do a lot of things in life… but you still need to wash your sheets.

What to expect in this episode:

• Launch day excitement and behind-the-scenes podcast talk

• Millennial vs. Gen Z slang confusion

• Seattle sports, celebrity sightings, and wine chat

• Wild anonymous confessions and moral debates

• A legendary soap opera storyline that has to be heard to be believed

• Plenty of laughs, tangents, and absolutely no filter

Listener discretion advised: this one is not safe for work, not safe for kids, and possibly not safe for anyone drinking coffee while listening.

This episode gets an extra dose of insight and intrigue with a special guest: the other Ashley in our lives, Ash’s longtime friend and a licensed counselor who brings a whole new perspective to the wild stories we unpack. She opens up about her own jaw-dropping journey, from discovering her biological father in her 20s to what it was like growing up as a Jehovah’s Witness.

Along the way, we dive into tales that sound too outrageous to be real but absolutely are: pool boys with extracurricular activities that left more than ripples, a drunken hookup that crossed a family line, the curious case of Bear BNBs and Poop Processors, a cheating and manipulative predator who left chaos in his wake, and an unhinged mom-daughter duo that might just take the crown for most unforgettable pair. Buckle up, because this episode blends shock, humor, and real-life drama with a professional lens you won’t want to miss.
