Classless Chaps

Join us for a jam-packed hour of Spongebob Trivia in honor of our favorite sponge's 25th birthday! But let's be real, we would take any excuse to play this game on the pod... This is a good one to watch on YouTube if you want so you can see our scoreboard and let us know in the comments how many answers you knew :) Instagram: @classlesschaps.podcast @maddy_bru @__phoebe.taylor Intro and outro music written & produced by CJ Essen

This week the girls are getting PASSIONATE. They recap their summer trips and hypothesize that they are, quite literally, prettier when they're happy. They also rant about ~career talk~ being the constant go-to when conversing in this day and age, and how it feels so disconnected from our true spirit and is, frankly, just getting boring. Maybe instead of focusing our daily life around work and sprinkling in the fun and connection, we should start structuring our days and our goals around fun and connection, and find time here and there for work and productivity.  Sounds like a pipe dream, but is it really? FORGET EVERYTHING YOU KNOW except for fine dining and breathing -- and start living your life the way that actually sounds good and makes sense for YOU.

Come with us on a long journey down Cancelled YouTuber Lane, chugging down the tracks of "misinformation," as we put together the official Classless Chaps YouTuber Apology Tier List. Some of this lore is truly so iconic we had to take an episode to talk about it. Sidenote: If you don't already, this would be a good episode to watch on YouTube because we visually create the tier list and show a pic of everyone we talk about.

This episode has been HIGHLY requested by one person. We're finally reliving all of our most embarrassing moments for your entertainment -- you're welcome. We laughed so hard while recording this ep and we think we'll look back on this one as a classic :') Instagram: @classlesschaps.podcast @maddy_bru @__phoebe.taylor Intro and outro music written & produced by CJ Essen

Today the girls shoot the shiz and hypothesize on the ONE thing that might be holding them back from reaching their highest potential... a midday ham & cheese? They also talk about weird things they've cried at and Phoebe's celebrity crush glow-up. If you're listening to this episode over lunch, let us know you're one of us.

This week the girls reminisce on their many, MANY business ideas that they were, at one time or another, CONVINCED would be their thing for the rest of their lives. And some of them were... a stretch. Ideas? Yes. Execution? Not so much. Instagram: @classlesschaps.podcast @maddy_bru @__phoebe.taylor Intro and outro music written & produced by CJ Essen

This week the girls are back with another ~amateur research hour~ WOOO! We did a little digging on some things we've never understood but never bothered to look up... until now. From hybrid fruits to the history of money to sneeze DNA, I think it's safe to say we ended this episode a little smarter than we started it... which isn't saying much.

This week Maddy interviews Phoebe! Phoebe explains how she ended up living in Australia -- and... how she got kicked out. She gets into the nitty gritty of friendship drama in college, her mental breakdown abroad, and how she almost turned right around and went home the day after landing in Australia for the first time. But first, she reminisces on her one "crazy" night in high school (lol). Instagram: @classlesschaps.podcast @maddy_bru @__phoebe.taylor Intro and outro music written & produced by CJ Essen

As if we don't yap about ourselves enough every week, we wanted to take a couple dedicated episodes to help you guys get to know each of us better. This week, Phoebe is interviewing Maddy! We talk about how she's different from her younger self, her life-changing graphic design program, and the messy career path she's been on since graduating 7 years ago. Buckle up for a nostalgic and inspirational ride down memory lane. Instagram: @classlesschaps.podcast @maddy_bru @__phoebe.taylor Intro and outro music written & produced by CJ Essen

This week the girls have a hard time coming up with a description for this episode. Maddy took a crack at the first draft to no avail. Phoebe approved out of desperation. You read this and realized they're kinda dumb... but alas, you listened to the whole episode anyway. And honestly, it kind of blew you away, because you had no prior expectations except for the title & the following keywords: style refresh, closet clean out, nostalgic kid shows, interior design, MRI gone wrong story   Instagram: @classlesschaps.podcast @maddy_bru @__phoebe.taylor Intro and outro music written & produced by CJ Essen

After a rather in-depth infertility update, this week we talk all about ~summer~! We share our bucket list items as well as routines we want to adopt this season. From fitness hobbies to over-the-top picnics and other oddly specific nostalgic activities, hopefully this episode gives you some inspo for your own summer bucket list :) Instagram: @classlesschaps.podcast @maddy_bru @__phoebe.taylor Intro and outro music written & produced by CJ Essen

Maddy and Phoebe dive into new technologies they didn't fully understand before. From AI to gene editing and other weird sh*t in between, how will this stuff affect our lives in the near future? Phoebe thinks robot-run stores will be open 24/7. Maddy worries the Apple Vision Pro will never fit her tiny head. And they both think Elon Musk should go live on Mars and take his cyber truck with him.

Maddy and Phoebe chat about following your gut and the difference between intuition and anxiety.  Maddy follows her whims, Phoebe cuts off all her hair and flees to New Zealand, and they both realize the importance of making decisions from a place of inspiration rather than desperation.

The girls chat about their hot takes that are *cough* actually hot.  And then the hot takes turn into lukewarm opinions - incredibly niche ones, nonetheless.  But first they break down the words and phrases they can’t stop using in 2024, and they can promise you they stray FAR from the trendy lingo that you hear all the time — I mean, unless asking “Mrs. Puff, what should I be working on?” is suddenly a gen z catchphrase.   Instagram: @classlesschaps.podcast @maddy_bru @__phoebe.taylor Intro and outro music written & produced by CJ Essen

Is the age of reality stars coming to an end now that anyone can be the star of their own "reality show" on YouTube?! This week the girls talk about the unexpected symbiosis between reality TV and social media. Maddy worships the ground Drew Gooden walks upon and Phoebe wants to barf at the phrase "parasocial relationships."    Instagram: @classlesschaps.podcast @maddy_bru @__phoebe.taylor Intro and outro music written & produced by CJ Essen
