Going Dutch

Bruh... internet issues much?! So sorry about the late upload. But here we are! We are going to figure this thing out one day... most likely it will be podcasts aren't cool anymore. Until then, though, we march onward! How best do you juggle your "balls of life"? We love you! You can always sit with us!

We love you but you got the wrong "granny". Marki and Bec cannot express "determination" enough... in all that you do. If all you can manage to do is try, you are KILLING it! Keep hustling, friends! We love you and you can ALWAYS sit with us!

Marki, we're sorry your Granny died. You are so loved, so seen, and so BEAUTIFUL. Dear Zach and Lacie, we miss you right back! We love you! Let's do some catching up, shall we? What hair extensions are best for what adults like to call, "intercourse"? HAHA! You can ALWAYS sit with us! We love you to the Gods!!

We are still here! Just... life! Marki and Bec are back from the beach and are rocking that sun-kissed glow. Livers are slowly recovering and new lessons are being learned even as whole, grown ass, women. Don't ever forget your worth, friends. We love you to death! You can always sit with us!

How you like YO eggs?! Gettin' back on our grind, preparing for our annual beach trip, & Bec's a bi***! We love you guys! You can always sit with us!

"Nah" - Rosa Parks. Marki and Bec meet up again for another episode of, "anything and everything". Blind dates are still cool and being a third wheel is truly the perfect setup! We love you guys! You can always sit with us!

When "Going Dutch" changed the music. Life is hard but we trudge on! Go easy on your people and strive to choose happy, even through your darkest days. Marki and Bec strive for new approaches at podcasting; the hope is that "Going Dutch" listeners just get to sit in on the catch-up, the good, the bad, the ugly, and join in. You can always sit with us! We hope you will go with the flow we feel moving us. Who knows where we'll end up! We're back! We love you guys!

Black Lives Matter! Marki and Bec encourage you to educate yourself. May we all become part of the solution. Also, DO NOT eff the police! Support law enforcement. Again, be part of the solution and let us not be contributors to chaos. We love you guys, and though we are far from perfect, you can always sit with us!

"I'm sorry your dad died." Marki and Bec are back with heavy, yet hopeful hearts. Dig deep and know what you know, no matter how dark the room gets. Always strive to be a "good egg". May the spirit of "J-Dub" (Jimmy Wayne), Bec's dad, dwell with "Going Dutch" forever and force Marki and Bec to mind their damn language! We love you and you can always sit with us.

One more week to gain back some balance. Thank you for sitting at our table! We love you guys.

Broken-hearted and needing some time. Come back next week for Episode 031. We love you guys! Thank you for sitting with us.

Happy birthday Jenn! And happy birthday Bec's maw! Marki and Bec are headed to celebrate Jenn's birthday this weekend; we are floating the river and plan to get all kinds of "white-girl-wasted"! Haha! Just kidding!!!!! (NOT) Having a podcast is HARD! We love you, we see you, we want to learn more. We love you guys! You can always sit with us!

Marki and Bec went back to church, y'all! Know your worth. Let the bad ones go. Identify those *eff* boys and MOVE ON. Marki and Bec just kinda be chattin' it up like always. We love you! You can always sit with us!

Don't get naked for tennis bracelets! Marki and Bec take a personality test and do some "hippie-digging". People.... WATCH YOUR WORDS. Also, coffee, anyone? We love you! You can always sit with us!.... and we hope you do!

When an elderly man in a Schriner's Club hat tells you to take his number, you take his number. Bec's been THROUGH it and all she wanted was a candle, dawg. Marki can't help but attract the pizza man; however, not your typical pizza man. "NO, James." .... but pizza? Can we get a large pan and "86" the cocaine?! We love you guys so damn much! You can always sit with us!

BRAS ARE NOT SLINGSHOTS. Happy Mother's Day to all the motherly broads out there! Haha! Marki and Bec have their first Monday without each other at work. It went terribly and Marki regrets her decision. JUST KIDDING. Marki had an amazing day! Marki and Bec get mushy about being, and not being, a mom. A 21-year-old offers to get Bec's nails and toes done. Psssshhhhh!!!! And life is just good, we are OK, and we love you! You can always sit with us! #NORAGRETS #NOTEVENASINGLEWORD

Happy Cinco de Mayo! Marki and Bec reminisce about when their friendship was just a baby and they remind each other about how weird and quirky they were/are. Marki reminds you that you are, in fact, good enough and you are absolutely PERFECT for what is meant for you. Always stay true to who you are. Food fixes literally everything... except for Murder Hornets. WHAT?! We love you guys! You can always sit with us!

Whoever you are, stop buying all the Belvita Breakfast Biscuits in Blueberry. How can Marki make even breakfast foods, sexual? Should you move in together before an engagement, or marriage, even? Hmmmmm... Bec says, "Get real. I ain't no trial shot!" We love you guys! You can always sit with us!

Bec fell down a whole flight of stairs; ahhh but she lives! Marki is making a move; not countries, states, or towns... just jobs. BUT STILL. Dreams are coming true and Going Dutch is grateful! Marki reads tarot and Bec reads "Phase 10". Would you expect ANYTHING DIFFERENT?! WE LOVE YOU! WE HOPE YOU SIT WITH US FOREVER!

We missed you on Easter, so, Happy Easter! Marki and Bec discuss bucket lists... let's all go sky diving!!! Is it GIF or GIF?! Toddlers are psychopaths. We love you guys! You can always sit with us!!

We still here, y'all!! Marki gets a dog....*yay!!!* Bec did not grow up playing card games with the fam-bam. We are all still fighting COVID-19. Marki shops for her Granny. Here's to marching ONWARD towards the inevitably unknown. We love you guys SO much! Thank you for sitting with us. We hope you always will!

Stay uplifted, stay healthy, and stay safe. Marki and Bec do what they do best and jabber away. We are all going to make it through this, hang in there! Happy birthday, Anita! We love you guys! You can always sit with us!!

Where ya gonna pawk the kaw?! Marki and Bec are "somewhat quarantined"... but that can't be used as an excuse for the craziness. We are just goofy and we said what we said! Owning a toddler provides zero dull moments and Bec's nephew goes to school with a dragon... so.... neat! Everyone, please stay healthy and safe. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. We love you guys! You can always sit with us! ... and we hope you do!

No one likes Corona, anyway! What even is going on in the world, YOU GUYS?! Ladies, don't you dare get in the car with a dude who texts you when he gets there to pick you up. You kiddin' us?! Life as we know it... there's nothing Marki and Bec don't jab about. We love you! You can always sit with us!

So much laughter! We promise we did not participate in "Tuesday Boozeday"... we just be silly sometimes. Marki is a bomb tattoo giver and Bec is gonna have a real "glow up"... one day. Life is good and no one is getting a dog. *insert eye roll* We love you guys! You can always sit with us!

We swear we aren't drunk... just caught the giggles (yet again). Dear future husbands of Marki and Bec, consider yourselves warned *insert wink* - no, but, for real. Marki and Bec discuss "open marriage" and how it's a thing. Bec refuses to believe it could ever work and shall not stand for it (personally). Is there such a thing as "too open minded", Marki? We are a mess, aren't we? We love you all! You can always sit with us!

We love you so much. You should MOST DEFINITELY love you, too! Marki and Bec get real for a second. "Relationship" - it's a fickle thing all on its own. Two human beings letting walls down, allowing their person to be experienced. Allow toxicity to survive within in it and you're asking for trouble. Take care of yourself, you're the only one that can. We love you! You can always sit with us!

Marki and Bec shoot the shit again. We love that you guys choose to sit with us! A little rambling, a bit of encouragement, and not all lesbians are after Bec. Geez! We love you guys! SO MUCH! ONWARD!!!

Bec is terrible at being a girl; she is such a "dude". Marki and Bec discuss transgenderism and ultimately decide that no matter WHAT, you can ALWAYS SIT WITH US! Bec says as long as you don't identify as "remote", we will get along. We love you and we are with you. Sending you all the lovey vibes and ish!

Happy Birthday, Bec! So Marki can sing, too?! Is there anything she can't do? ... nah! How did Marki and Bec even meet? Who did this? Thank you, Universe!! Marki and Bec just wanna get you pregnant. Join us at the table and find out how you can make your uterus sticky. You are welcome in advance. We love you guys! You can always sit with us!

Marki and Bec gave up REFINED sugar on 1/27/2020; literally, that day... specifically. Marki is STILL going to church... **gasp**... and is really becoming an expert at finding her own way that makes her soul full. Bec will never be the favorite but that's OK! Marki and Bec take time to deliver a little "follow-up Epi"... touching base on some topics they have gotten some feedback on. We truly adore you guys! We cherish this adventure and we hope you know that you are NEVER alone! You can always sit with us. Shoot us an email to say hi! markiandbec@gmail.com Share us, rate us, and... WE LOVE YOU!

Marki caught the bronchitis and, turns out, Bec is a doc! *Just Kidding*... but, really, Marki caught the bronchitis. It's Bec's turn to have the good voice this time... who are we kidding... even when sick, Marki has the best recording voice. *Insert eye roll* Bec is weird about funerals and she plans to have Kevin Gates do her eulogy. Marki wants her funeral guests to get their own chips to dip in the salsa that will be stationed on her casket. "Bubble Guts" are a real thing and you ain't human 'till you've had to speed home and risk it all to make it to the restroom! We love you guys! You can always sit with us. Thank you for your reviews and ratings! Share us with your friends... it means the WORLD to us. We just wanna have fun!

On to Season THREE of "Going Dutch", y'all! WE FREAKING LOVE YOU SO MUCH! Marki & Bec enter a new season with refreshed determination to bring you "funny" that is real, true, and authentic! Bec won't be accompanying her man to a strip club any time soon. Marki introduces the "No Cussing Challenge". Will you be the one to win a prize from, "Going Dutch"? Never forget that your existence matters. YOU ARE VALUED! You can always sit with us!

Plain and simple, WE LOVE YOU. Marki &Bec feel the concerns of listeners and reach out to remind you all of your seat at the table. You are worthy, valued, and accepted for exactly who you are IN THIS MOMENT. Onward to Season 003!

It's the year, "TWANKY-TWANKY", y'all! It won't be perfect, but it will be better than good! Even as adults we have to apologize to our mommas sometimes, you know, for sneaking string cheeses and shi***** your underwear. Do yourself a favor and know when your people are friends or foes; if a foe, take care of YOU! If a friend, take care of you...but also take care of your PEOPLE! We love you guys so much! If you have a chance, go rate us! It's the BIGGEST gift you could ever give us. Come hang out! You can always sit with us!

HAPPY NEW YEAR, Y'ALL!! We are steamrolling into 2020 with Episode 007! We are so pumped for the new year with goals and sh**! Listen to Marki and Bec wreck the Mario theme song, discuss pet peeves, and establish New Year's resolutions. We love you guys so much! Please don't ever forget that you can ALWAYS sit with us. Always!

The dating world, in your 30's, will throw you for a loop! But not near as bad as the ghost of Christmas audio issues will... UGH. Marki and Bec chit the dating chat with you and share some real, "no way that really happened", stories. We are steadily making tweaks - allow us to apologize ahead of time for the mic squeaks. All in all, though, we are having a blast and we are SO IN LOVE WITH YOU GUYS! MERRY CHRISTMAS, from "Going Dutch".

Marki goes to church with Bec!!! Marki & Bec touch on the feared and highly avoided subject of, RELIGION. {Insert "doomed" music} Bec loves Jesus and cusses a little. Marki loves goodness and grace that follow all the good in the Universe. Christians have got to get it together - be the hands and feet and get your knees dirty. Ain't NOBODY perfect, y'all! The world can turn, with love, even when your beliefs differ. We love you and you can always sit with us!

"Going Dutch" has been launched! YOU GUYS ARE LISTENING! Are we actually doing this thing? Marki’s sultry voice is a huge hit with fans and, oh yeah, Bec is just... “funny”. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride. Black people are super sleepy due to "extra melatonin". Marki and Bec share special Christmas mush-gush. Bec had braces, TWICE. What is YOUR Tinder profile like? WE LOVE YOU GUYS! YOU CAN ALWAYS SIT WITH US!

Marki & Bec find dope a** intro music {it even fades out, dude}. Marki was right about football - that precious, fem, fun-loving gal. Thanksgiving 2019 was (but also wasn't) the worst. Find your perspective and don't lay down. Bec's future kids are gonna come out dusty. It's OK to feel your "feels" and "Going Dutch", the podcast, is going live!! Remember, you can always sit with us!

Marki & Bec come up with an intro that needs improvement. Bec sits next to a lesbian at church. Marki is a fun, fem, football-loving gal. Penile photography is a "thing", and the BBQ wings at B-Dub's are spicy. We are "Going Dutch" and you can always sit with us!

Take off your "I'm offended pants" before you listen! National Coming Out Day. Bec runneth over a lesbian {almost}.
