    Ivy Insights

    The Sunday Scaries Podcast is a delightful and comforting podcast that has become a staple in my weekly routine. The hosts, Will DeFries, Barrett Dudley, and Sally DeFries, have created a show that feels like sitting down with friends for a relaxing conversation. Whether you're recovering from a hangover or just needing some soothing content, this podcast provides the perfect escape.

    One of the best aspects of The Sunday Scaries Podcast is its ability to create a calming atmosphere. The jazz soundtrack that accompanies each episode sets the tone for a laid-back and enjoyable listening experience. The hosts' voices are soothing and their discussions range from personal anecdotes to interesting topics like fashion and trends. I particularly enjoy the Retail Therapy episodes where Will and Barrett dive into style and luxury in an approachable way. Their banter is engaging and their insights have helped me elevate my own fashion choices.

    Another great aspect of this podcast is its relatability. The hosts openly discuss their own struggles with anxiety and stress, making it easy to connect with them on a personal level. They offer advice and tips for managing these feelings, giving listeners something tangible to take away from each episode. Additionally, the inclusion of guest episodes adds variety and brings new perspectives to the conversations.

    While there are many positives about The Sunday Scaries Podcast, there are some aspects that could be improved upon. One critique is that some listeners feel like the Retail Therapy episodes overshadow the OG Sunday Scaries format. There have been requests for separate feeds so that those who prefer one over the other can listen accordingly. Additionally, some reviewers feel that there could be more diverse guest appearances to bring different voices into the discussion.

    In conclusion, The Sunday Scaries Podcast is an essential listen for anyone seeking relaxation, entertainment, and relatable conversations. From the calming jazz soundtrack to the engaging discussions between hosts Will DeFries, Barrett Dudley, and Sally DeFries, this podcast offers a much-needed break from the Sunday blues. While there may be some areas that could use improvement, overall, this podcast remains a top choice for those looking to unwind and find solace in their busy lives.

    The vibes shifted this week to The Great American West. Inspired by Beyonce's pivot to country, we go through the various reasons cowboy fashion simply won't go away. We also take the first part of today's episode to discuss The Rule of 5 — a way of consciously consuming by only buying five items for your closet per year. To round things out, we discuss some Kevin Murphy hair products, the viral caviar martini, Lorde's $170 water bottle, hotel robes, bogcore, and more.
