Suzanne’s new-old friend, who happens to also be gay, causes quite the stir among the ladies. We’re all learning lessons in this one: 90s style of course.
Come back later in the week for a round of Southern trivia with stakes of course. Who will be the victor? Nikki. Who will try but mainly just be nervous? Salina.

Let’s get ready to rumbbbbble! It’s time y’all, trivia time. In one corner, we have Nikki, calm, cool, collected. In the other, Salina, nervous, sweaty, and all over the place. Much like Highlander, there can be only one (or many if you count the people shouting the answer at their devices).
The winner will grab victory. The not winner will buy both of us brunch. And let’s get real, when bacon is involved, everyone's winning on some level. Play along with us: it’ll be fun.

Ruh-roh. Suzanne is plotting again – this time roping Anthony into impersonating Consuela who is on the brink of being deported. What could possibly go wrong?? We’re not sure, but we absolutely know we won’t be putting on a wig, a bra, or hose anytime soon. That. Is. Final.
Come back later this week if you want to learn how to achieve the American dream in just…10…simple…steps.

As we talked about - at length - this week, Suzanne hatched a foolproof plan for Anthony to pretend to be Consuela so he could overcome her citizenship hurdles. Consuela - and Anthony - and Suzanne’s - struggle in this episode is so real. For this segment, we’ll first talk process - what is citizenship and how do you get it - I’ll throw a couple numbers at Salina, and then, what the heck - let’s take a test!

Van Halen may have been “hot for teacher”, but this week – and probably only this week TBH – our Mary Jo is hot for preacher. Is this love that she’s feeling, or was this just an excuse for some fun baseball fan references? Speaking of: we’ll sidebar on some memorable “fan-on-the-field” moments including the ones that inspired this segment.
Come back on Thursday for an Extra Sugar that’s part-mythbusters, part-advice column, part-business development? Come back to find out!

This week, building on Mary Jo’s romantic religious rendezvous, we’re going part-mythbusters (is it illegal for people of the cloth to date?!?) and part-advice column (what do you do if you find yourself dating a person of the cloth?!?) And maybe part-business development (but also, maybe not - Nikki isn’t an app developer and maybe that’s a good thing after you hear this nonsense.)

Graduating is stressful, y’all. There are the last-minute exams, family coming into town, your half-cocked boss accidentally shooting you in the leg whilst trying to cheat at a Jeopardy board game…the list goes on and on and on. But if anyone can make it make sense, it’s our Anthony. And if anyone can help us “best the stress” – it’s Nikki. She’ll sidebar us with some much-needed tips
Come back on Thursday for an all-new Extra Sugar where we’ll talk about some lesser-known, influential historical figures in Black history.

This week, our dearest Anthony graduated college. The episode included some nods to the Civil Rights movement and Black history, which inspired us to discuss some lesser known historical Black figures and some important “firsts” you may haven’t heard about.

In one corner, we have Julia and Mary Jo: pampered, well-rested, stuffed on sundaes. In the other corner, Charlene and Suzanne: beaten with vines, exhausted, and hungry. All we can tell you is there’s gonna be hell to pay when the two collide.
Come back on Thursday for an “Extra Sugar” where we’ll take a closer look at fad diets and eyebrow-raising weight loss treatments.

This week’s spa episode and weight loss regimen for Suzanne and Charlene vs. weight gain regimen for Julia and Mary JO inspired this week’s segment.
Join us as we discuss the culture’s obsession with thinness and weight loss. What’s going on here? How is this affecting people? How do we put aside the fad diets for good and find long lasting healthy eating habits?
