A podcast by Melissa from The Real World and this lady Amanda. Two strangers getting to know each other the old-fashioned way -- the phone. They do! Bonus!

Amanda, a graphic designer from OH, invited Melissa, a NY stay-at-home mom on her podcast. Melissa, who has been hunkered down for decades after a cool but soul-crushing brush with fame on MTV’s Real World New Orleans, didn’t really do this sort of thing but Amanda seemed nice. They recorded twice due to technical difficulties, but ended up chatting for hours. Who the f**k talks on the actual phon

e? Two strangers getting to know each other the old-fashioned way. Get to know Melissa all over again as she gets to know Amanda for the first time. One’s white and one ain't.

Ohio is the “heart of it all” (it is, Google it) and I hope this visit has left a little Ohio shaped print on your heart.

We have had so much fun and hope the ladies Beck have too. 🤍

What a wonderful weekend! We will recap Amanda’s trip to Long Island to celebrate my becoming bat mitzvah later in the week. In the meantime, enjoy this photo of us at the TWA terminal at JFK. I was so delighted with the place when a friend of mine took me last month, I knew I had to show Amanda if she ever made it back this way.

If you’ve been listening for a long time you know one of our shared interests is mid century modern furniture and architecture because NERD.

Whole place is visually stimulating and dreamy AF. The s**t is legit enchanting. We walked around squealing the entire time. It’s the perfect place for an impromptu photo shoot too and so we, two people who don’t love having their photos taken, did just that. Real smiles and everything! At one point, in the gift shop, it hit me. “Not us spending quality time together!” Little hearts so full. 💕

This looks like an awkward but loving hug goodbye as I dropped her off at her hotel for the evening, but it’s actually a violent chokehold. “Is your foot on the f**king brake, Melissa? Jesus Christ.” And only now, are we officially friends. She survived my driving when you know full I do not drive! That’s the choice *she* made. Welcome to my life, Amanda. I been waiting on you at the do’…

Melissa and Amanda discover the subreddit called Xennials. Hypercolor. Cabbage Patch Kids. Serendipity books! Also, Melissa blames everything bad that happens on perimenopause. Also, men are Mars; women are superior.

…and they’re back after scrapping multiple bummer recording sessions before finally arriving at this new episode. Melissa is still on the mend from an actual fortnight of sickness, laryngitis and everything. Amanda performed a MAJOR solid by editing out at least 12 minutes’ worth of Melissa’s wretched coughing. If only there was a way for Amanda to edit out the start of her entire 2023 because so far, this hasn’t been her year. Also, enjoy a deep dive on the latest flesh-eating street drug Tranq.

Ever the studious ones fearful of disappointing others, the ladies sit down to record while Amanda is sick with a sore throat. Amanda discusses her hesitation in taking any kind of medication which makes Melissa crazy — just do the drugs! That said, Melissa is an insomniac who 100% cannot be trusted with Ambien.

Shabbat Shalom! This episode is out of control. The friendship has reached a dangerous level of familiarity. We’re talking imaginary prison barbers, s**tty legs, suppositories. And half of that is just Melissa telling Amanda about very awkward times where she was recognized from that reality show. Then! Be prepared to feel seen, foggy-headed people out there! The ADHD IS ADHD’ing.

Amanda’s 16-year-old dog Cocoa died. Thug down. Melissa’s husband sold his 22-year-old business. Thug down. Might need Kleenex for this one but not for long. After the musical break in the middle, join Melissa for a night out at a 90s R&B dance party, Covid be damned.

Melissa and Amanda respond to The Cut’s article on etiquette for the modern world for what they call “life after Covid.” After? OK, but we get the gist. It’s arguing time (in the most loving way). Do you cancel plans w***y nilly? Do you trip when you see a famous person? Do you pretend you’re not impressed by someone’s accomplishments? Apparently there are new rules for these things. Find out where these ladies (not allowed to say ladies anymore — did you know that!) agree and disagree. You can read the article and follow along here — https://www.thecut.com/article/tipping-rules-etiquette-rules.html.

Melissa is about to take a road trip to Vermont to visit Danny. We all know she is not a nature lady, hence why she prepared for the visit with a trip to the beauty supply. Amanda regales us with her expertise in a new segment called Old Lady Gym where Melissa gets to ask questions about health and fitness now that she’s an athlete. The two get serious and down deep about tackling negative self-talk too. [positivity overload] Let’s do this!

Ep 104: Every rose has its thorn. On this episode, Melissa and Amanda share the highlights of their weeks. For Amanda, her son earned his black belt. For Melissa, she’s closer to becoming bat mitzvah. Then, in a dreadful turn of events, the ladies overshare about the stuff that gets on their nerves on social media. The algorithm doesn’t care that they’re not interested. It just keeps serving them slop!

Ep 103 WOW! What A Difference!

Melissa might finally understand Amanda’s fitness thing because she is now a member of . Is this real life? Melissa also discovers the riveting new show and that Amanda is also an Alan Cu***ng fan. Plus, an update on Melissa’s journey with hot yoga. WOW! What a difference, indeed.
