Welcome To Your Midlife Crisis

Is the realization you are officially “middle aged” totally screwing with your head? Does the fact that all the favorite bands of your youth are now doing “reunion tours” give you a paradoxical feeling of joyful melancholy? Does realizing you can’t lecture your kid about their tattoos and/or piercings without them bringing up yours give you a headache? Wondering how in the hell you are still out marching about the same bullshit you were back in your Riot Grrrl days? Well you are not alone!
Life is hard, yo! Just when you think you have it figured out fate throws a handful of nails under your worn tires and there you are, spinning out of control and desperately trying to gain traction. Big or small, it is easy to feel alone in your struggles and it doesn’t have to be that way. If you are anything like the rest of us tired assholes trying to accept that “middle age” is something actually happening to us, you thought you would have this shit figured out by now too. It is time to tighten up the laces on those old Docs and touch up our goddamned roots; because we are going to get through this crazy shit together.

Huh... guess this is a monthly podcast right now. In this new episode The Gals talk to Katie’s childhood friend, and current hairdresser, Michelle Krause! We had a lot of questions for Michelle about how our hair and skin changes in middle age and beyond and she had tons of answers for us. Learn which products to spend your money on and which are total scams. Most importantly, laugh along with us because aging is hard stuff. We still haven’t replaced the broken guest microphone so Loni and Michelle had to share one; please bear with the sound imbalance. This is a good episode and you won’t want to miss anything (and we promise to replace the microphone before we have another guest).

Hey! Happy Effing New Year, listeners! Loni and Katie are back to talk about what bullshit New Year’s Resolutions are and how setting realistic goals may be easier on our middle-aged brains. Katie rearranged her studio and in the excitement of recording in the new space she set up, forgot to select the mixer as input. So basically the sound on this first episode of 2019 sucks because she accidentally recorded the entire episode through the microphone on her computer... which she had her back to. Anyway, instead of making poor Loni drive all the way back over from The Couve to record this episode over, we are just going to roll with it.

In this, our last episode of 2020, Katie and Loni talk GenX and holiday specific mental health issues and triggers with Portland Licensed Clinical Social Worker Shanna Branham. She is witty, insightful, and incredibly kind (and also looks kinda like the human embodiment of Jessica Rabbit)... we found her insights into our generation to be stunningly validating.
Although this was intended to go up before Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanza, the holiday advice still holds true for all holiday traditions and events. And we hope it starts your 2020 off right.

Holy shit balls... it has been a while! Here’s the thing, Loni and Katie have been pretty preoccupied by Midlife Crisis shit lately. We know you are feeling their feels. Anyway, there is a weird click in this episode. Katie tried to edit it out. It is still there. Sorry. You are going to want to listen to this one despite the audio anomaly because it is all about the heartbreak of losing our GenX Stars. Ric Ocasek’s recent death kindof triggered a weird flashback to all the big deaths of 2016/17 and we want you all to know it is okay to feel upset about losing these people. You are not crazy. You are not alone. You are not overreacting. They mean a lot to us and it hurts.

The Gals got their socially distant shit together enough to record a new episode. Join in as they discuss current events and how they are coping or not coping with all this. Obviously they weren't able to record in the studio (and won't be for the foreseeable future), so the sound isn't great. But hey... we are all in this shit together, right?

Whew! What a fucking year this has been, eh? Yes, we kindof curled up in a ball and hid from the world for the last half of 2020, but we are still here! This is just a bit of an update on us/year end episode. It’s a hot mess... but what the fuck isn’t these days? We talk a bit about what’s been going on in our worlds, and find some positive things that happened to us this year. Happy Holidays to you all, and may the New Year find us all in a better place (we’re already planning episodes for 2021 and have a couple guests lined up already).
Oh! And Loni’s Covid test came back negative!

Shit, Y’all! It’s been a minute! We realize it’s been months since our last episode, but we’ve all been living through this crazy pandemic and... well... energies around here have been low. But we also just marked a year of this craziness and we decided we should acknowledge that (and maybe get back on a regular recording schedule). Join us as we discuss everything we’ve learned in the past year (the good, bad, and ugly).
