Send us a textCat and Kyra are back for Season 3! They shot the original Season 3 release date by a year, but who's counting. They certainly weren't. In their Season 3 non-debut debut, in celebration of Black History Month, Auto (sound man extraordinaire) administers a Black Card test for the ladies. Join them for sh*ts and giggles, grimaces and grumbles, and all around fun. Welcome back, pod friends!
We've done it everyone! We've done and completed SEASON TWO! We're very proud of ourselves and one another. SUpER DUpeR LUpER grateful for all of you who tune in and listen. Thanks for being a part of our little world. You make it bigger, better and brighter. See you October for SEASON THREE. And hopefully some IG posts and animation fun in the interim.
Was it's Cat's fault or the Motorcyclist's? It's most never the cyclist's fault, but captured footage gets us talking. In the meantime, the motorcyclist is okay, Cat is okay and the vehicles in question, while not so okay, left no one (physically) injured. Phew.
One of us was in a sorority. A white sorority... that recruited (rushed, rather) a handful of blacks.
Kyra is taking a trip with the lovely Michael. We'll be back next week.
In the middle of recording an episode, Cat had a pull in her chest. So we stopped recording...
While recording this weekend we had a scare. We stopped recording.
Money talk again! Sharing the wisdom of our money worlds with a lot of off-track thoughts and laughs in between. And when we say wisdom we mean slowly, but surely attaining one quarter wisdom.
We discuss the rules of some of life's unspoken codes. Codes to follow if you want to be a good, solid, considerate samaritan, friend, partner, all around human being.
We discuss diet culture and where we fit in it. Sometimes popping cinnamon rolls and watching from the sidelines or participating (kinda) full on. Come not learn the tricks to being the best healthy version of yourself!
It's a good day to make sure Kyra is updated on (at least sOMe of) what's in the news. So get ready for Cat in her news commentator hat. Whoop!
Sometimes you wanna step in but don't... then wish you had. That's where this conversation gets started. Where it ended? We still don't know, ha, but it's a coolish one. Have a listen and see/hear for yourself.
Cat: Soooooo, as of today I'm swiping those mens! But why should I really? ...Maybe I'll go to France first. Kyra: Excuse me?Cat: That's right. Kyra: Uh...Cat: You don't think I should? Kyra: I got some thoughts.Cat: I've got some questions. (Continued on today's episode: DATING UPDATE!)
Most of us have had 'em, maybe even been one (oops). Either way it's not cool. Be gone toxic friend(s), be gone!
This episode is not for the faint at ear. We actually SAY words to discuss words that are on lists of words one should not say. We goof a bit, too. All in fun, but again, if you're sensitive to this debate, there are tons of other Ruppatahtah episodes for you to choose from.
We're SO wise. Okay, not SO wise. Not at all sO wise. But we have thoughts. And you might could maybe possibly find one or seven or two or four or more or less (but more) of them useful.
We delve into non-monogamy. The SUBJECT of it, rather. To be clear. But is the possibility of it being a reality for either of us? Yes and no and no and yes but no.
Repeat! Like the title says! Do NOT try any of these home remedies at home. Or in a box. Or with a fox. Not in any shape, with ANY animal. In fact, nowhere in or with nothing or no one. Ever. Just don't.
We weren't really sure how to go about this follow up. There are sO so so many stories. So we just talked. It's not our favorite, but we got to vent a little... and find high notes, too.
Cat and Kyra get fired... sometimes downgraded. And stuff.
When we first recorded this we talked about our own experiences with the police. But so freakin' much continues to occur with the police, we'll be talking about the topic again. Next week. For now, this focuses on the cops and us.

AI excites Cat and talks Kyra into embracing it (with a cringe).
If you steal, you know who you are. You're just like Cat and both of you need to follow examples set by Kyra. (This description was written by Kyra.)
Howdy everyone! It's the start of the New Year and some things have occurred. Nothing too major ...unless they become major, but only 2023 will tell. Come on into our pod space and start Season 2 with a little bit of [ ], a little bit of { } and a little bit of our before new year's (and no year's) resolutions at the tippy end to wrap it up. Wait, make that - to START it up. Whoop! HaPpY 2023! Gonna be a good one.
We said we'd start again on the 11th with SEASON 2. and HERE.WE.ARE! Just like we said. Mind ya'll, we're without an episode, but we are here. To tell you the episode is coming. Showing up is half the battle. This, friends, is called FUDGING IT with love. See you next week!
We did it everyone! We've come to the completion of our first season. You get a kiss, you get a kiss, you get a kiss! (No tongue.) What you also get is your questions answered, your comments told and your suggestions taken in for consideration. You also, every.single.one.of.you, get our utmost appreciation for your support. Like for real, all twelve of you (smile). We look forward to coming back and hanging with you JANUARY 4th (Which probably means the 11th. Google says it's a good number).
Drum roll... lady Cat has joined Kyra in the microcosm of dating apps and gotten her Bumble and Hinge on. How's it going? So good. In a not bad, TBD kind of way. Not yet exciting... but could be. Maybe.
Now look citizens! Of democratic societies. Particularly the American one in this case. Cat and Kyra learned all about (some thing[s] about... or at least became curious about) ranked-choice voting. They have some thoughts on it. Do you?
We discuss our feelings about not having children. Get your tissue box out. Kidding. Get it, KIDding. Har. Join us for some Ruppatahtah reflection on being childless. Maybe you'll relate. Or know someone who does.
Out intention was to get straight to talking about the people who are tripping off of black, fictional characters (like the little mermaid, of course), but we started off talking about a play we were about to attend. One that had a black night.
Can friends with benefits be a real thing? We're not quite sure yet.
Somebody's been getting calls from debt collectors. Somebody else has been knock, knock, knockin' on bankruptcy's door. Two debts, two experiences, probably a lot like some of ya'lls.
Introducing a new cat to a home that already has a cat is no small thing. It's a combination of The Lion King, Grumpy Old Men, and Mad Max: Thunderdome.
You're definitely going to want to listen so that you can be the toast of polite society. A little preview: unexpectedly leaning over and licking another individual might be considered in poor taste.
Trained professionals off of 1 trip to the range, we share our survival tactics for the societal crumble: THE APOCALYPSE. First though! We dish out our plans for the millions we received from the LOTTERY.
Cat asks Kyra questions regarding the impulse control disorder Kyra has dealt with for twenty plus years.
When it comes to Self Help, one of us is suspicious. The other comes at it from a tranquil accepting mind, woke with affirmation.
The theme of this movie night: Find bizarre movies. We went into it not knowing the definition of bizarre, but were confident you would find Gummo, Eating Raoul and Freaks there. Take a listen.
Kyra: Isn't love great?! Cat: If by great you mean tragic, yes, yes it is great.
We talk about money, savings, investing and creating wealth. It was a bit of a short conversation.
Kyra's online rejection sparks a conversation that explores the expectations and etiquette of online dating.
Cat and Kyra have a candid talk about personal habits. Like, really candid. Parent(al) guidance is suggested.
