Two Broads From Brooklyn

The Broads are back discussing tips and tricks for a solid night out that they've acquired from growing up in New York but should really be applied every where else. Why the best DJs are still from New York. And how Anna and Cola are both chaotic good and chaotic neutral.    We literally drop a new episode whenever we feel like it. How's that for chaotic neutral? 

The broads chat GPT (see what we did there?) Anna tries to make herself a morning person, and talks about how Atomic Habits can help change your mindset. Cola waxes poetic about why she is a morning person. They get into how people should be able to structure their workdays to best suit different working styles. Cola gives her review of Bupkis and end on the hot hot button topic of the writers strike. Solidarity Bro!

We took a bit of an unexpected break because Cola had to fly home for a funeral in New York but don't worry, we give you all the grim details in this lovely episode about death. The Broads dive into some Italian superstitions about the afterlife and Anna gets hit on at a funeral. Enjoy!

Anna gets into why she hates Seattle and the broads are back to waxing poetic about coming full circle and coming back to Brooklyn.  We missed you!

The broads are back late this week because Cola finally picked up her cats. They kick things off with some TMI and discuss what the post-pandemic workforce will look like. Anna gets into the issue of women and internalized misogyny and Cola refuses to not be an elitist New Yorker. 

Cola is over the moon about the Mets seven-game winning streak which by the time this is released has already ended. Anna details her unfortunate saga of what it's like getting sick (not with Covid) during a parallelogram. And the broads dive into the upcoming Friends Reunion special and why you can't have Sex and the City without Samantha. 

The broads are back a day late this week because Cola got her second vaccine dose and is ready for a tits out LA summer. Anna discusses different scenarios in regards to why some people may be waiting on the vaccine and how the future might be more comfortable if we all just wore masks anyway. Cola talks about the newest additions to her family and the broads chat about how New York is desperately trying to be cool again so Cuomo can save his job.

The broads go off-book this week for a quick check-in. Discussing how hard it is to find a hairstylist in a new place and why it's bullshit to pay more than $20 for a mani/pedi. Cola chats about her crazy family physician who didn't know her gallbladder needed to come out. And why certain delicacies are a must in Florida and others in a New England diner. But never order the duck in a Staten Island hotel Anna and Cola cannot agree on the best ice cream sandwich. All this nonsense and more on a broad check-in.

But most importantly they acknowledge that when we know better, we do better and that this show, while a familiar comfort, is just that.  

Anna's dad reminds us that the east river has a body count, and Cola falls down the rabbit hole of NYC influencers on TikTok. She also really needs to know if anyone actually likes macha lattes.

Cola and Anna are here discussing all things books! Passionate readers for life, they chat about their reading origins and how they actually kind of miss going to libraries.

Cola and Anna tackle one of the most difficult topics yet, what they don't like about New York.

But like true New York City masochist poets, they just can't seem to stay away. 

Read a fucking book! Cola and Anna have some thoughts on a beautiful Human's of New York story, the sketchy vote by mail ballots people in the city have received, and why Birds of Prey perfectly captures the love story of a woman and her breakfast sandwich.

God forbid Cola steps on one of her grandma's tomatoes! Today we're talking summertime in Brooklyn!

Jesus be a fence! It's episode eight! Cola is overjoyed by the sale of the Mets and Anna explains to us why the mayor's furlough doesn't mean jack. Then it's all about Brooklyn street games.
