The original recipe is back, IRL. Aleen kicks things off with a revelation that one day, some day, she *will* turn 40, but at least she has a trip to Japan to look forward to. Of course, we have to discuss all things Taylor ahead of The Tortured Poets Department release. Even Jordana has to admit Tay and Travis looked really cute at Coachella. On a *not so shocking note * the Golden Bachelor Gerry Turner is getting a divorce after 3 months of marriage to Theresa Nist…. It’s giving Kim K and Kris Humphries. Our Betch of the Week is NCAA superstar Caitlin Clarke, who’s worth way more than she’s being given. Get your sh*t together WNBA. As for the Caymans? Gerry and Theresa are on their way, they knew this divorce was coming before they even got married…. We’re unable to be duped.

The trio is back in action. According to Aleen, the joke’s on us because the Caymans are lovely. We’re recording a day early, because the Betches are going on their collective bday trip tomorrow to Mexico, so first they dive in to KateGate. Of course we’re talking about the TMZ video. Is it a body double? Why are the Royals carrying plastic bags? Is Rose Hanbury the posh Raquel Leviss? Then onto America’s knockoff royal family- the Kardashians, or at least their exes... Caitlyn Jenner and Lamar Odom are launching a podcast together and their logo is giving clip art. What does Khloe think about all this? We won’t be listening. Onto another clickbait headline, Travis Kelce’s new hosting gig-- Listen and you’ll understand the irony.

Sup, betch. Sami is podcasting from DC today, before heading off to the White House! We fear she’s become a Gen Z TikToker, because she’s doing a GRWM while recording. A multi tasking queen.

Sami got a dog! Well, she exchanged dogs with her mom. Long story, you gotta listen. It’s been a slow week for celebrities, so we’re kickin’ it old school and talking about the most brow raising articles from The Cut and The NY Times, which include a scary scammer piece and VPR’s Assistant’s exposé…Ann has a bright future ahead of her. Jordana thinks she can scam Sami…now that would be a fun game to play. They wrap with Aleen’s hot takes on JLO’s awful movie. No srsly, we still have PTSD, it’s that bad. Our Betch of the Week is Beyoncé because she’s making history yet again! We’re sending Aleen to the Cayman’s, because she’s literally going next week! We’re trying to convince her to sell a timeshare while she’s there…No promises.

The company is officially a grown woman… happy Betch Mitzvah to you all on our 13th birthday. Sami, Aleen, and Jordana share some of their fave memories from the early days and tell an embarrassing Facebook story. They debrief a busy Super Bowl Sunday and there’s a lot to unpack: Travis let his bro-flag fly, Ben & JLo stole the show with their Dunkin commercial, and Taylor looked great every time she was on screen. They also tell us what they thought of Usher’s halftime performance (hint: the caressing of Alicia Keys got a little too personal). The Met Gala officially has a theme and it’s a good one. Ariana Grande is teaming up with Mariah Carey and people couldn’t be happier – if only we could get her song out of our head. Finally, Nicola Peltz Bekham and Meghan Markle made headlines this week. Travis will go to the Caymans this week, because he needs to work on his public speaking.

It’s been a long time comin’, but Sami and Holly are back for another episode of Speak Now (Betches Version). There’s A LOT going on at the moment, because Tay just made history at the Grammys, exhibited some very unhinged behavior, AND she simultaneously dropped a major announcement: a brand new album that’s been “2 years in the making”. Yes, we have some reason to believe that the title is a dig at you-joe-who. Fresh off the Grammys (fresh out the slammer), the Eras tour has resumed in Tokyo, and the Super Bowl just days away. Will Trav make a grand gesture if the Chiefs win? Listen and found out, Dear Listener. Speak now or forever hold your peace in the comments if you liked this and want more.

All three betches are back recording together this week and begin by discussing Drake’s NSFW video… IYKYK. Did he release this video himself or was it really leaked? They debrief a packed Grammys show that featured a few awkward Taylor Swift moments on stage, and an amazing performance of Fast Car by Tracy Chapman – Jordana’s her new biggest fan… even though she only likes the one song. Also Jay-Z made things uncomfortable for everyone and we have thoughts. The Super Bowl is happening this Sunday, so Aleen tells us why she thinks the game was predetermined – Sami’s not so sure, but Jordana only cares about her betting pool anyway. There’s more to say about Taylor’s big announcement, but you’ll have to wait until tomorrow’s episode of Speak Now Betches Version. In the meantime, Tracy gets her moment to shine as our Betch of the Week, and Phoebe Bridgers gets the honor of sending some guy named Neil to the Caymans. Good luck selling those timeshares while you “rot in piss” (Phoebe’s words, not ours).

It’s February - the worst month ever! But that also means that Betches’s birthday is in 2 weeks...and it's our Betch Mitzvah! Won't you please come up and light candle number 13? Sami is preparing a montage, and maybe we’ll include Levels by Avicii in it, if we can get the music rights (shout out to the TikTok vs. UMG feud). While Sami is sound mixing, Jordana is busy selling her wares on Facebook Marketplace (her Betch of the Week and part of our new sustainability initiative). Then they move onto this week's headlines: Justin Timberlake is in his flop era, Sami and Jordana re-forecast their Taylor & Travis relationship timeline to account for the Chiefs making it to Super Bowl. We’re so proud, but also just about ready for them to put their public honeymooning on pause. There's also Sophie Turner and her semi-hard launch with British aristocrat boyfriend Peregrine Pearson, and Tom Sandoval is on the press circuit. This week, Justin Timberlake will be sent to the Caymans. He needs to experience some rejection.

Sami and Aleen are back in the Betches HQ studio and they’ve got a bone to pick with the Oscar noms that were just released. Everyone is buzzing about Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie snubs, and we’re all ready to move past darkly-lit “complex man does terrible thing” movies. Onto things we love – Selena Gomez opened up about body image in a series of IG posts with an inspiring update on a throwback bikini moment. Aleen also shares a positive paparazzi (pos-arazzi?) red carpet encounter between some of our favorite celebs. They introduce a new segment called “some things people are talking about that we don’t really care about but we’ll mention anyway” – and the list goes on: Jason Kelce’s bare chest, Kardashian sponsorships, Jacob Elordi’s relationship status, and Tristan Thompson’s doping scandal. They wrap with some TV recs, Timothée’s resurfaced rap footage, a classic Anne Hathaway moment, and the Betch of the Week.

Then onto an Emmys red carpet roast recapping all their fave and worst looks – it’s giving Jovani. Switching gears to the music industry, Ariana Grande returned to music and dropped a new song for the first time in 3 years… Is it a bop or a flop? We’re divided. In other news across the pond, Kate Middleton was admitted to the hospital due to abdominal surgery. Spoiler alert, she’s doing fine. They wrap up with a preview of today’s live RHOSLC table read, and Mauricio will be sent to the Caymans this week because god knows how many times he’s cheated.

Happy Hanukkah, betches. Sami kicks off today’s episode sharing her Hanukkah celebrations from the VP and First Gentleman’s big bash at the *other* White House. While on the topic of celebrating, they wish Taylor Swift a happy 34th birthday — even if Travis was too busy to celebrate with her — which leads to more speculation about their relationship timeline. Speaking of couples, Kylie and Kris Jenner were spotted sneaking out of Timmy’s LA premiere for his movie Wonka– will Timothée become Stormi and Aire’s stepdaddy? The congrats continue with a shoutout to Hilary Duff who is now going to be a mom of 4(!!) and a reaction to the royal Christmas card, which has caused quite the stir online with a major photoshop fail of Prince Louis.
