Happy New Year y'all! While we planned to talk about our resolutions and moving forward into the next year, what we actually talked about were strip clubs, uncomfortable medical exams, puberty and other stuff. And our friends JP and Lyndey joined us for the fun! Enjoy!

The holiday season is here and times are tough. Between being overloaded at work and overburdened personally the month of December is shaping up to be insane. We break down the madness of December and touch on some other topics, like Adina's ghost tooth.

YouTube is filled with crazy nonsense these days. We chat about the things we love to watch and the things we love to hate watch. And for some reason, we also made each other cry.

We're back! Sorry we missed a week, but life has been hectic. We spend this week catching up with each other on our life's current events. It's just as interesting as it sounds.

It's our favorite time of year - Halloween is right around the corner! This week we pay homage to one of our favorite podcasts (How Did This Get Made?) by reviewing the 2003 horror movie Freddy vs. Jason.  And joining us for the fun is our best buddy and horror expert Matt! Listen to us break down this mess of a movie. We also give a Luo Dong update.

What do you do when you are feeling uninspired and unmotivated? No, really - it's not a rhetorical question, we need help! The ladies of Honesty Check are in a slump personally and creatively. It happens to the best of us.  So what do you do? Well, we complained about it on this podcast for 45 minutes.

Making new friends is never easy, especially if you're two socially awkward weirdos like us. This week we share about putting our foot in our mouth and oversharing when meeting potential new friends. Also, Sonya reads some poetry she wrote in high school and Adina is still confused and losing time.

Social media is ever present in most people's lives these days. It can be a great way to stay in touch and keep connections with friends and family. And it can also be a place where dishonest folks can take advantage of you. It's also a place where people can struggle with boundaries and disclose a little too much. Nothing is sacred and nothing is actually private. This week we break down what we think is the danger of oversharing on social media.

Would you fly halfway across the world to marry a stranger you met on the internet? What about washing your clothes in the swimming pool to save money? Yep, there are people out there that do these things and you can find them on TLC's shows 90 Day Fiancee and Extreme Cheapskates. We discuss how people are absolutely wild and do insane things that they willingly let a tv network record and show to the world.

Do you feel like you have your finances in order? Well, we thought we did too until we realized we didn't.  So we decided to get on a budget! This week we walk though the new budgeting program we are both trying, discuss where we bleed money, and come up with a new workout program. We are business minded and jacks of all trades.

Guest host extraordinaire JP (professionally known as Nasty Pants) joins us for another episode as we tackle the trickiness and stickiness of group dynamics. Navigating friendships can often be fraught with obstacles, but it seems especially so in a group where you have to deal with a multitude of attitudes and behaviors. We share some of our experiences dealing with difficult people in group friendships.

We have our first return guest! Our amazing friend JP (a/k/a Nasty Pants) joins us for this episode to discuss all things gay. We hit on more serious topics like coming out, dating in today's social media obsessed culture, and addressing hurtful gay stereotypes. And then we talk a lot about the Jonas Brothers (Nick Jonas in particular, hey how you doin'?) and which gay celebrities would make our top five lists.

The ladies of Honesty Check have had their fill of summertime. It's been three months of being too busy, too hot, too frustrated and too tired. The joke is on us though since we live in the South; it'll be summer until November probably.

Moving houses is a wild and unpredictable ride. Adina has been busy the last couple weeks packing up and moving out. She shares some of the misadventures that have kept her busy recently. In other news, paying bills is a pain and Sonya may need sensitivity training.

Y'all, we've had a rough couple of weeks so we haven't recorded a new episode. But fear not! We've repurposed a couple of clips from our Patreon for your enjoyment while we get our lives together. Enjoy some knock knock jokes and our review of Skyscraper to tide you over till next week.

You know what's hot? Treating people with respect, courtesy and kindness. We've encountered some folks recently who need a reminder about manners, so this week class is in session for Common Decency 101. Basically, don't be a jerk, be thoughtful to those around you, and don't litter. Littering is a big one for us.

As it sometimes happens, this week's topic chose us as we began venting about all the things that currently agitate us. Topics include: strange and uncomfortable YouTube videos, aggressive hammock swinging, mismatched barstools, the barefoot neighborhood wanderer, making yourself sick by laughing too hard, and bangs on dudes. None of it makes any sense, but it doesn't mean we're not wrong either.

We had the distinct pleasure of attending the PodX Conference in Nashville, TN earlier this month. We met people. We learned things. We got drunk on the first day. And we recorded ourselves being drunk. Don't worry about it! Stay tuned after the end of the episode and you'll get to experience a slice of that madness.

In our quest to become more physically active, we recently took a delightful stroll through the woods one sunny afternoon. And we brought the mobile recorder so you could be a fly on the wall during the experience. You'll hear us fart, be accosted by a Spanish ghost, complain about litterbugs, worry about troll attacks, fantasize about meeting Jason Bateman, and talk about our deceased pets. It's a journey in more ways than one.

A rant about Trading Spaces led to a rant about the Property Brothers which turned into a whole episode of trash talking about HGTV. We had a different topic planned for the episode, but sometimes you just gotta sail where the wind takes you. Adina and Sonya also come up with several new wacky business ventures they'd love to pursue if time, talent and finances weren't a hindrance.

Adina and Sonya have many talents between them; however, acting may not be one of them. This week your hosts embrace their inner thespians to perform a series of short plays for your listening pleasure (or torture). Special thanks to Monologue Blogger for providing us with the material.
