    🎧 In This Episode:

    Stefanie and Meredith get real about body image, weight struggles, and trying compounded Ozempic (with a side of food noise freedom and stomach pain). Then they dive into parenting bittersweetness, from college scheduling to mature teen decisions. But don’t worry—it’s not all feelings. They bring the fire with viral TikTok recaps, insane government spending exposĂ©s, and an unforgettable AITA wedding guest scandal.
