Ladies & Tangents

You all showed up and flooded the inbox with the most incredible stories for Mother's Day and now Jeri has to sue you all for emotional damages. While she may never recover, you all made Ciara feel again- so we're categorizing this as a win.

We love a tiktok psuedo-science, especially when we have a little story to go along with it. We're both proof of its existence and also part of the problem perpetuating its debatable existence. In this episode, we discuss how we're crocheted together by the universe with invisible strings. Don't believe us? Have you even tried being spiritchal? Grow up.  GAZA/WEST BANK RESOURCES-https://medium.com/@scholarscoalition/for-immediate-release-u-s-4c2aecd11535https://irusa.org/middle-east/palestine/https://buildpalestine.com/2021/05/15/trusted-organizations-to-donate-to-palestine/https://www.vox.com/2015/5/14/18093732/israel-palestine-misconceptionshttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/52045757 WE’RE GOING ON TOUR - ladiesandtangents.comWE'RE ON PATREON - patreon.com/ladiesandtangentsMERCH - ladiesandtangents.com/lt-merch*NEW* SUBMIT YOUR STORIES - landtstories@gmail.comFOLLOW ALONG WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA - @ladiesandtangents 

After the success of the Sims episode, we decided that we're just going to start doing what you want more often and what you've been asking for is a place to vent your icks. We're back again describing all of the things that make our faces scrunch up in disgust. Did we accidentally just focus on men doing these things and discover that when women do the majority of these, it's more of a yum than an ick? Maybe.  GAZA/WEST BANK RESOURCES-https://medium.com/@scholarscoalition/for-immediate-release-u-s-4c2aecd11535https://irusa.org/middle-east/palestine/https://buildpalestine.com/2021/05/15/trusted-organizations-to-donate-to-palestine/https://www.vox.com/2015/5/14/18093732/israel-palestine-misconceptionshttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/52045757 WE’RE GOING ON TOUR - ladiesandtangents.comWE'RE ON PATREON - patreon.com/ladiesandtangentsMERCH - ladiesandtangents.com/lt-merch*NEW* SUBMIT YOUR STORIES - landtstories@gmail.comFOLLOW ALONG WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA - @ladiesandtangents 

We just finished up the last leg of tour and had absolutely zero time to record a traditional episode. We've been teasing Sims content for what feels like a year so we finally used our current situation as a reason to pull the trigger and see if we could make an episode out of playing the Sims. For warning, this was recorded on a cell phone in a hotel. If you like this, we will definitely properly record next time!

We've been needing it and you've been asking for it, it's a long overdue mental health check in.

We know you weirdos like to talk about dreams and so do we. The insane movies our subconscious projects on the back of our eyelids is the closest we get to tripping these days.

Because we've been enjoying doing a mashup of listener submissions, we are petitioning changing our beloved Scandals episodes to Smorgasbord episodes. IYKYK...

We've been on the road quite a lot recently and decided it was time to slow things down and lighten the mood with an episode about Snapple Facts. Before getting into the silly, goofy time, Jeri has some updates for the L&T fam. She has seen the questions and comments and is catching everyone while also making some requests for future comments, questions and concerns. As always, we appreciate you giving us the space and opportunity to be humans, as well as being our friend while we do it. REFERENCEhttps://bestlifeonline.com/snapple-facts/ GAZA/WEST BANK RESOURCES-https://medium.com/@scholarscoalition/for-immediate-release-u-s-4c2aecd11535https://irusa.org/middle-east/palestine/https://buildpalestine.com/2021/05/15/trusted-organizations-to-donate-to-palestine/https://www.vox.com/2015/5/14/18093732/israel-palestine-misconceptionshttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/52045757 WE’RE GOING ON TOUR - ladiesandtangents.comWE'RE ON PATREON - patreon.com/ladiesandtangentsMERCH - ladiesandtangents.com/lt-merch*NEW* SUBMIT YOUR STORIES - landtstories@gmail.comFOLLOW ALONG WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA - @ladiesandtangents 

This week Ciara decided to delve deep into the history of a term that has been floating around social media for awhile now. And by delve deep, we mean she found a few articles and decided to use that to strike up a conversation about something she knows nothing about. The male gaze was a term coined in the 1970s but we know it’s actually been around for honestly, probably the beginning of time. Join us in getting mad and also inappropriate for the majority of this episode, and please come into it with an open mind and remember that we do not now and have not ever known anything. RESOURCES https://www.verywellmind.com/what-is-the-male-gaze-5118422 GAZA/WEST BANK RESOURCES-https://medium.com/@scholarscoalition/for-immediate-release-u-s-4c2aecd11535https://irusa.org/middle-east/palestine/https://buildpalestine.com/2021/05/15/trusted-organizations-to-donate-to-palestine/https://www.vox.com/2015/5/14/18093732/israel-palestine-misconceptionshttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/52045757 WE’RE GOING ON TOUR - ladiesandtangents.comWE'RE ON PATREON - patreon.com/ladiesandtangentsMERCH - ladiesandtangents.com/lt-merch*NEW* SUBMIT YOUR STORIES - landtstories@gmail.comFOLLOW ALONG WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA - @ladiesandtangents 

We did a Q&A a few weeks ago and heard how upset you were that we skipped the Hey Ladies questions- well we hope you're happy. We've devoted an entire episode to giving you arguably terrible, but very much solicited advice. Once again, we don't know dick about shit and don't advise anyone ever do what we say- unless it turns out well; then you tell people we told you to do it.

This week we dug deep in the L&T files for a highly requested episode and asked you all for your “red flags” and “green flags”. Whether it’s a romantic, familial or work relationship - we’ve all experienced that spidey sense that tells our gut whether we vibe with certain people or not. As always please take these as the opinions they are and nothing more - we have never wanted you to listen to us and we hope you never will.  GAZA/WEST BANK RESOURCES-https://medium.com/@scholarscoalition/for-immediate-release-u-s-4c2aecd11535https://irusa.org/middle-east/palestine/https://buildpalestine.com/2021/05/15/trusted-organizations-to-donate-to-palestine/https://www.vox.com/2015/5/14/18093732/israel-palestine-misconceptionshttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/52045757 WE’RE GOING ON TOUR - ladiesandtangents.comWE'RE ON PATREON - patreon.com/ladiesandtangentsMERCH - ladiesandtangents.com/lt-merch*NEW* SUBMIT YOUR STORIES - landtstories@gmail.comFOLLOW ALONG WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA - @ladiesandtangents 

Once we broke the tradition of our annual Valentine's Day episode with the guys, we apparently forgot completely that the day existed at all. Ciara prepared a Smörgåsbord of stories for us and Jeri tried to make them hot in honor of the day of love. It was nearly impossible to do considering two of the stories included mehrder....  GAZA/WEST BANK RESOURCES-https://medium.com/@scholarscoalition/for-immediate-release-u-s-4c2aecd11535https://irusa.org/middle-east/palestine/https://buildpalestine.com/2021/05/15/trusted-organizations-to-donate-to-palestine/https://www.vox.com/2015/5/14/18093732/israel-palestine-misconceptionshttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/52045757 WE’RE GOING ON TOUR - ladiesandtangents.comWE'RE ON PATREON - patreon.com/ladiesandtangentsMERCH - ladiesandtangents.com/lt-merch*NEW* SUBMIT YOUR STORIES - landtstories@gmail.comFOLLOW ALONG WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA - @ladiesandtangents 

Get out your pencils and papers this week because class is officially in session. We're testing Ciara's attention span, Jeri's reading and your patience with us as we take the scenic route to the point. Jeri broke out her teacher hat again to teach us about “the three A’s" and how they might apply to more of us than we think. Grab your tools and your hard hats, because we're building a bridge of understanding that will connect us all while maybe, hopefully, also getting Jeri an honorary PhD from the University of Phoenix Online.RESOURCESPHILO- NOTEShttps://youtu.be/2iHJbfyUqZg?si=ugHuhiAjHnaGiHp_Griselda Iniguezhttps://youtu.be/LuYbi0rF5og?si=z0zvwJVFpzwP5IuxProfessor Givon’s Lectureshttps://youtu.be/YYZEJnrOTrY?si=6cMTdGFyZnBR80hHPHILO- NOTEShttps://youtu.be/2kw80Uzt2GU?si=0_4gES7Vg-EEy3y8 GAZA/WEST BANK RESOURCES-https://medium.com/@scholarscoalition/for-immediate-release-u-s-4c2aecd11535https://irusa.org/middle-east/palestine/https://buildpalestine.com/2021/05/15/trusted-organizations-to-donate-to-palestine/https://www.vox.com/2015/5/14/18093732/israel-palestine-misconceptionshttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/52045757 WE’RE GOING ON TOUR - ladiesandtangents.comWE'RE ON PATREON - patreon.com/ladiesandtangentsMERCH - ladiesandtangents.com/lt-merch*NEW* SUBMIT YOUR STORIES - landtstories@gmail.comFOLLOW ALONG WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA - @ladiesandtangents 

If you’ve ever spent a sleepless night wondering what part of a burrito would best represent each of us, or which one of us has a higher pain tolerance, wonder no more! Ciara surprised Jeri this week with The Couples Game- which is totally not weird in any way for two cousin besties to play together. Cousins can play couples games....couple means two, you're the one who is making it weird.

This week we took another break from having a silly goofy time to tell you about a psychology theory we stumbled upon thanks to a guy named Murray. Triangulation, multigenerational transmission process, a whole bunch of other words we barely understand, but we have a good feeling you'll relate to these family systems as well as we can. I mean, as well as the people on that one tv show we all collectively watched, not us. It’s definitely not us.

We can't believe 2004 was 20 years ago- especially since we ourselves just had our 12th 20th birthday last year. If you're ready to embark on the nostalgia train, then punch your ticket and step right this way. We'll take you back to a time when music videos ruled the world and a certain painter's code sent the religious world into a tizzy. Speaking of Tizzy...I can't remember but I think there was something to do with a ball and a mid game musical number involving Shmanet Shmackson and a one Mr. TizzyTimberlake?

You mother fathers are absolutely FOUL and we love you for it! We weren't sure what to expect when Jeri initially asked for disgusting stories, but we knew that if anyone could understand her wishes, it would be the community we've built on the foundation of not being able to hold our own bowels.
