Talk Shit and Laugh

We started talking about social situations we don't enjoy, but quickly realized the real issue is forced fun. From corporate retreats to weddings and holiday parties, we unpack why mandatory enjoyment feels so uncomfortable — and why so many of us secretly dread it.

In this episode of Talk Sh*t & Laugh, we're breaking down what we're cheap about and what we'll happily spend money on—no hesitation. From everyday things we refuse to overpay for to the categories where we're total spendthrifts, this conversation gets very honest and very funny.

In this episode of Talk Sh*t & Laugh, we didn't expect things to get quite so deep. Inspired by a conversation we heard on the Mel Robbins podcast about the Cornell Legacy Project, we talk through the five life lessons people say matter most at the end of life — and share how we honestly feel about them, how we're doing in our 50s, and where we still struggle when it comes to relationships, happiness, regret, and what really matters.

Perimenopause is not what we expected — and honestly, it's so much worse. In this episode, we talk candidly about the physical, emotional, and mental toll of perimenopause, the symptoms no one warned us about, and why women are so unprepared for this stage of life. If you're in your 40s or 50s and wondering what is happening to your body, this conversation will feel painfully familiar.

Dating in your 50s is a completely different experience — and Sarah having a new boyfriend proves it. In this episode of Talk Shit & Laugh, we talk about how dating changes in midlife, what we actually want now, and why we have way less patience than we did in our 20s and 30s.   Listen to us on: Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/talk-shit-and-laugh/id1833034299 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6J16PGZiWtQdWat83ULW3O Amazon - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/66e7c860-dcf4-4ca2-bdf5-bacc3901d510/talk-shit-and-laugh iHeartMusic - https://iheart.com/podcast/289659802 Sarah Walton -  YT Channel - https://www.youtube.com/@TheSarahWalton  Website - https://www.sarahwalton.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thesarahwalton Michele Wang- YT Channel - https://www.youtube.com/@themichelewang Website - https://www.themichelewang.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/themichelewang

We Weren't Ready for This… But We're Figuring It Out. At some point, the roles start to shift—and suddenly you're the one worrying, checking in, and making decisions for the people who raised you. In this episode, we talk honestly about parenting our parents, navigating aging, guilt, boundaries, and the emotional whiplash that comes with it. It's complicated, heavy at times, and surprisingly common—so if you're in this season too, you're not alone.

From free shipping to being way too messy, we're breaking down the red flags we bring to the table in this candid, hilarious episode. It's funny. It's honest. It's the good kind of chaos.

Happy New Year, friends! We're kicking off 2026 with a little truth and a lot of laughter: our morning routines are chaotic good energy. In this episode, Michele and Sarah look at how they actually start their mornings this time of year—what's working, what's wishful thinking, and which routines we'll probably keep… at least for now. Inside we're chatting about: Why we'd need a full 12-hour morning to fit in everything we want to do The tension between "ideal" and "real" routines—and why both matter The habits we love (and the ones that secretly stress us out) Some happy new year wishes for you, from two women trying their best and laughing through the mess This is a cozy, honest start to the new year—with zero pressure to be perfect, and full permission to reset in your own way. Come for the dry brushing attempts… stay for the real-life chaos. Listen if you've ever wanted to have a productive, magical morning… but also accidentally scroll for 45 minutes instead.

New year, new… ugh, no. In this episode, Sarah and Michele get honest about why we're skipping the resolutions this year—and what we're doing instead to create real change (without the pressure, guilt, or glitter-covered goals list). We talk about: Time feels like it's moving too fast—and how we're slowing ourselves down The problem with "new year, new me" energy (spoiler: you're probably already doing more than you realize) How Michele quit smoking—like, OMG - so Michele What Sarah is approaching differently in her love life, and how small shifts are already changing how she feels And remember - we will teach you nothing. LOL This is how we approach the New Year, and we'd love to hear more about how you ring in the New Year! Are goals stupid? Are they the best thing ever? We don't know! Tell us!

One wears a Santa hat. One is wearing black. Guess who wore what!  Because somehow—it's all perfectly "talk sh*t" festive. In this episode, we're dishing on our favorite holiday traditions, the food we look forward to all year, how Sarah has 2 Christmas trees, and how Michele rejects a few rules and celebrates with her amazing Mishmas. We talk about: Decorating chaos Comfort food Holiday joy (and how we wish people were nicer) And how weirdly healing it can be to make your kind of season—no matter what it looks like New episodes drop weekly Share your favorite holiday traditions—we might read them on the show! #TalkShitAndLaugh #FunnyHolidayPodcast #MidlifeCelebrations #MishmasMagic 🎁 Listen to us on: Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/talk-shit-and-laugh/id1833034299 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6J16PGZiWtQdWat83ULW3O Amazon - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/66e7c860-dcf4-4ca2-bdf5-bacc3901d510/talk-shit-and-laugh iHeartMusic - https://iheart.com/podcast/289659802 Sarah Walton -  YT Channel - https://www.youtube.com/@thesarahwalton  Website - https://www.sarahwalton.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thesarahwalton Michele Wang- YT Channel - https://www.youtube.com/@themichelewang Website - https://www.themichelewang.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/themichelewang

Which One of Us Is the FBI Profiler? Wait for it… In this week's episode, we leave this timeline on read and hop on over to the multiverse—where infinite versions of us are living totally different (and sometimes wildly better?) lives. We ask the important questions: Would Michele be a no-nonsense FBI profiler... or just someone who knows too much? Would Sarah have become a stand-up comic touring the world with emotionally devastating punchlines? Is Michele secretly a super chill mom in another dimension (no minivan, minimal PTA involvement)? Could Sarah be the CEO of a mega-business empire that runs on iced coffee, intuition, and hard boundaries? Listen if you've ever wondered who you'd be if you'd made just one different choice… or if you're 92% sure you're meant to be living near water with a mysterious past.

This week, we're talking about the TV shows that stole our hearts, broke our brains, and how much we loathe streaming bills. It's all about the shows we love and why we're subscribed to 97 things - except for Michele. She hates subscriptions. Think: Deep obsession with all things alien related (but only if the humans are in peril) Chills (and possible nightmares?) about The Fall of the House of Usher Softcore nostalgia for Little House on the Prairie Aggressive rejection (Sarah) and keep love (Michele) of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives We've got hot takes, comfort picks, and strong feelings about the fact that we're now subscribed to six streaming services just to rewatch one thing in fuzzy socks. Justice for our wallets. PLUS: We want to hear your faves too—send us your underrated gems, old favorites, and shows you'd rewatch annually like it's a holiday. Listen if: You love a strong TV opinion, secretly cried at the Lasso finale, and have no idea how to cancel Apple TV. New episodes every Sunday DM us your rides-or-die shows @talkshitandlaugh—no judgment (unless it's Mormon Wives).

Ever look at your own life and think: Why am I like this? Same. In this episode, Sarah and Michele go fully off the rails in the best way—comparing daily habits, weird quirks, and questionable routines that somehow… still make sense? Sarah doesn't wash her face—new habits needed! Michele has a multi-step PM skincare lineup and lives for it We talk about how we both sleep, eat, unwind, and notice all the small things we don't realize are… weird What kind of dogs we are? And we ask the big question: do we actually want to change, or are we just delightfully broken in cute ways? Spoiler: this episode is not about fixing yourself. It's about loving the version of you who texts from the toilet and loads the dishwasher "wrong" every night.   Listen if you need a laugh, a little self-acceptance, and permission to stop pretending you're doing it all right.

Stuffing, Side-Eyes & Silly Questions: Our Thanksgiving Special Warning: this episode pairs best with stuffing and a secret glass of cabernet. This week? We're talking turkey, traditions, and the most fun way to spend Thanksgiving—with ridiculous questions, lots of laughter, and absolutely zero forced small talk. In this episode, we: Talk Thanksgiving chaos, traditions, and secret survival tips Share the actual fun parts of the holidays (Hint: it's not the cooking) Pull silly (and totally entertaining) question cards from a girlfriend convo deck and ask each other the wildest stuff Swap stories, crack up, and keep it very unfiltered Forget the forced gratitude circles—we're here for real connection + second helpings   This episode is super fun, cozy, deeply unserious, and basically an invitation to sit at our table.

Spoiler alert: People are usually wrong. This week, we're unpacking the assumptions people make about us—and how often they're way off. Is Michele a total extrovert… or just really good at pretending she doesn't want to go home early? Does Sarah need the spotlight 24/7… or does she actually just love a solo nap and not talking to anyone ever? Have we always been confident… or is it just that we stopped explaining ourselves? In this episode, we reveal: The weirdest, most hilarious assumptions people make about us How personality isn't always what it looks like on the outside Why we each misunderstood the other at first! The difference between being perceived and being understood This one's funny, honest, and sneakily deep—because sometimes the most freeing thing is saying: "This is who I really am. Take it or leave it."

Blockbusters, Tearjerkers, and "Wait, You Haven't Seen That??" You can tell a lot about someone by their favorite movie—and this episode? Yeah, we go all the way in. On comfort films, ugly cry classics, questionable 90s crushes, and the movies we still haven't gotten around to (don't come for us—yet). In this episode, we share: Our favorite movies of all time (from rom-coms to chaos-core classics) The films that made us ugly cry on the couch—and we'd watch again anyway The comedies we can quote in our sleep (and probably have) The iconic movies the other still hasn't watched—and why we're personally offended The movies that saw us through sick days, rough times and the need for giggles (and scares) And the underrated gems we want you to add to your watchlist right now Whether you're looking for a soul-level rewatch or a popcorn-fueled laugh, this is your permission to hit play, cry a little, and remember how powerful movies can be when life feels completely out of plot twists.   💭 Listen in for a fun chat with friends so you'll know what to watch when you need to laugh, cry, get scared—or curse-laugh your way through the credits with snacks in bed.

Self-care in your 50s isn't always about spa days or skin serum. Sometimes? It's about being alone for an entire afternoon and not having to answer to a single soul. This week, Sarah and Michele get real (and a little raw) about what self-care actually looks like now—after decades of caring for everyone else. We talk about: It's time for permission to rest, reflect, and not "be productive" Why hobbies that no one profits from are the ultimate act of rebellion The quiet joy of reading, doing puzzles, or driving without music The grief that comes with losing your old self—and how to honor her The power of softening, staying in, and starting over Self-soothing, emotional processing, and grown-ass alone time (the good kind) Getting older comes with losses—of energy, of identities, of former selves. But it also comes with a soft kind of power we wouldn't trade for anything. This one's gentle. Thoughtful. Soulful. And just maybe…the permission slip you didn't know you needed.

Jobs We Never Had (But Would Totally Crush) Some people follow a straight career path. But a guy on the plane next to Sarah (after several drinks) got her thinking about all the jobs she should've ... would've ... could've. We had wildly specific dream jobs we never even tried—and we're still thinking about them. In this episode, we reveal: The top-tier jobs we really wanted (and why we would've been amazing at them) Why 1990s hacking felt like a ✨vibe✨ even when all we really knew was AOL How Sarah is still in her "author arc," and why naming nail polish colors is still on the vision board Why Michele always chose "secret agent" or "fashion mogul" in MASH The power of typing fast, and how it made us feel like unstoppable 12-year-olds with jobs And what we think all those old dreams were really about   This one's nostalgic, hilarious, and lowkey validating. Because adulting? Weird. And honoring who you were before the "shoulds" kicked in? Even better.   Listen if: You've ever switched careers, chased a weird dream, or still sorta think you'd slay as a forensic psychologist.

We're indoors, we're unbothered, and we're absolutely thriving. In this episode, we talk about the stories that shaped us, the books we'll never shut up about, and why the quiet life is anything but boring. We get into:     Our go-to books, old favorites, and unexpected recent obsessions     How staying in became our sport of choice     The deep joy of hanging out with ourselves (spoiler alert: not what you think… but also, don't be dirty)     How we recharge, reflect, and reset in a loud world     Why reading is still our ride-or-die way to escape, expand, and not answer texts Whether you're a full-on bookworm or just in your "leave me alone with a cozy beverage and a story" era—this episode is for you. Listen if: You've ever canceled plans to finish a novel Or if you believe pajamas + plot twists = peak joy Drop your favorites—we love a rec.

We Were Dumb in Our 20s (And Honestly? Iconic.) From one-night stands to questionable life planning (or lack thereof), this episode is a love letter to what we did in our 20s… and why we'll never do it again. Sarah and Michele get unhingedly honest about: The messy, hilarious, sometimes tragic choices we made in our 20s Why we would never go back (but still kinda love who that girl was) Wild dating stories, emotional gymnastics, and the fact that Sarah is now—in her own words—a jaguar, not a cougar 🐆 How we confused chaos for freedom (and grew all the way up) The true glow-up: peace, presence, and not texting the guy back Why aging is the best plot twist we didn't see coming We're talking dumb mistakes and laughing our faces off while we do it. Because if we can't mock our 20s selves with love… what's even the point? Listen if: You're proud of your wrinkles, wisdom and stupid mistakes (and have zero shame deleting an ex's number again).
