This week, in what might be the funniest episode yet, Molly and Emese are joined by co-stars Amy Schumer and Brianne Howey. They get candid about motherhood, career evolution, and their new film, Kinda Pregnant —which unexpectedly led to Amy’s latest health discovery. Amy opens up about how public criticism led her to uncover her Cushing syndrome diagnosis, what it’s like to navigate comedy and Hollywood as a mom, and the importance of sharing birth stories without shame. Brianne shares how becoming a mother has shifted her perspective on work, how Ginny & Georgia ’s Georgia Miller compares to real-life parenting, and the power of female friendships in the industry. We also go behind the scenes of their new Netflix film, Kinda Pregnant —how Molly first got the script, why Amy and Brianne were drawn to the project, and what it means for women today. Plus, they reflect on their early career struggles, the moment they knew they “made it,” and how motherhood has reshaped their ambitions. From career highs to personal challenges, this episode is raw, funny, and packed with insights.

What does it mean to "eat healthy" and how does that affect our mood, our energy/frequency level? Val shares her own journey from chronic digestive issues to a clearer gut and calmer energy. A veritable fountain of knowledge, she is. Tune in for a wide-ranging and informative discussion this week.

Send us a text CC and Val travel down memory lane this week and remember the one-woman play they co-wrote over 15 years ago. Never one to take the simple route, their sassy Seussian poem turned into a 70 minute monologue. What were we thinking? Chosen by the Fringe Festival, their play "Earth-bound Angel" was performed 12 times in Toronto in 2009. Val shares the memorable "Bare Down There" that kicked it all off, and CC tries to hold it together. Enjoy!…

Send us a text We were gonna' do a show on the health benefits of laughter, but it's January 20th and Trump was just inaugurated. So, there's that... means we need look a little deeper in order to add laughter to our daily recipe for well-being.

Send us a text Today's episode is one from the fall we never posted. (While it's introduced as our first videotaped episode, there's actually no YouTube post.) Because our bathroom is being renovated, which means loud noises, no recording took place last week.

Send us a text CC and Val take a look at the lies we tell, to ourself, and others. We all do it, but why? What are the prices we pay for them--and the pay-offs we get from them? Telling the truth can be uncomfortable short-term, but long-term it's freeing. Val shares a story and suggests with one bottom-line: trust your gut. CC says: guard your in-to-me-see.…

Send us a text CC and Val discuss places that evoke emotion; places like Stonehenge, or cemeteries, where energy can be felt. But, are all "sacred" spaces also "spiritual"? Perhaps connecting to nature, all by itself, without buildings in which to pray (or poop) is spiritual all by itself. But then how do we wind up talking Twin Peaks...?…
