Summer's poking its sweaty little head out and Dr. Naomi and Jordana are discussing their run-ins with nature (yes, there was a baby bird situation), summer travel dreams, and the fantasy of becoming an effortlessly cool local in a town you’ve been in for like… three days. The Overshare takes a wild detour into “Craft My Text” chaos as one listener shares deranged text receipts from her sister-in-law, who did not take it well when she passed on buying a car from her dealership. Another write-in poses the very niche (yet deeply relatable) ethical conundrum: can you sell a product that was replaced by the company—and they didn’t want the old one back? The hosts have thoughts. And loopholes. Meanwhile, one listener trying to get healthy is over the current GLP-1 craze and is wondering why no one’s talking about the rapidly vanishing elephant in the room (spoiler: it’s weight loss, and yes, we went there). Jordana also half-apologizes for accidentally offending the entire veterinarian community, and the duo dives into a colleague’s loaded comment that sent one listener into a body-image spiral.

Is It Ethical To Embellish My Resumé?
Jordana and Dr. Naomi kick off this week’s episode with a rage-fueled rant after Jordana’s vet visit for Ronnie the dog goes from zero to WTF real fast. Then it’s on to listener chaos, starting with an overshare from a Betch who wants to tell her boss, “I’m chill where I’m at,” without sounding like she’s given up on life. (Can you vibe at work or nah?) Keeping it corporate, another listener is spiraling over whether to jazz up her LinkedIn with a lil’ title inflation—especially after seeing her former coworkers playing fast and loose with the truth. Girl, is it a resume or a fantasy novel? This week’s Intention segment features a newly diagnosed Celiac warrior trying to survive the gluten-drenched nightmare that is literally every menu. And it’s not just Jordana having a triggering week—listeners write in with their own personal horror shows, from invasive egg retrieval interrogations to a ghost-town wedding group chat that has one bride wondering if she should just elope and call it a day.

I’m Having An Existential Crisis About AI
After a weekend of tornado watches near Dr. Naomi’s home, she and Jordana examine what rattles them both the most, especially when it comes to the unexpected and uncontrollable. But the storms in Dr. Naomi’s hometown aren’t the only thing brewing! The Overshare this week gets into the dirty topic of jealousy when one woman spills that her BFF’s new, very cool, boyfriend is making her a little envious. In a complete 180, the Betchicist of the week comes from a listener who is trapped hearing weekly rants from their brother-in-law about his marriage, which has them feeling at a loss of how to escape the awkwardness. Speaking of chaos, Dr. Naomi helps set an intention for a Betch that is increasingly overwhelmed by the prospect of robots replacing all human interaction, and the hosts touch on the ever growing importance of making time for connection with others. It wouldn’t be an Oversharing episode without a few Triggering scenarios and so Jordana and Dr. Naomi close out the episode with a little look at work/life boundaries and a friend and soon to be god parent that would rather scuba dive than celebrate their new god-child.
