Your favorite clucking hens are back with a new episode. They still have zero structure or format. Speaking of which, how does one get those things? They do have loads of energy (thank you Nicholas Coffee) and they love TV (is streaming considered TV?) and they love each other (which is why they get name-called by someone whose name rhymes with FLOHN FLAVIS).Gab wants the listeners to have ONE TAKEAWAY from this episode:TREAT YO SELF and get AMC +. (NOT SPONSORED BY AMC +, in fact I'm sure they would prefer I stop speaking about them). Seriously, if you love Halloween and you do. $8.99 and the amount of movies that you will have access to is incredible.AMC+ picks from the Two Guinea Hens:Rose's Top Three picks from the Halloween franchise:Halloween 1978Rob Zombie's Halloween II 2009Halloween III Season of the Witch 1982Gab's Top Three picks from the Children of the Corn franchise:Children of the Corn III: Urban Harvest 1995Children of the Corn 1984Children of the Corn V: Fields of Terror 1998We talk about other stuff too like mental illness (our lives) and Rose gives me credit for picking Kamala's VP running mate and for recommending Matlock.

In a rare, sober episode of The Two Guinea Hens... Gab and Rose are still as wild as ever! Who says, "You need booze to have fun?" Alcoholics do, but they also say you need booze to drive, perform surgery and exist.... So. Rosie and Gabby discuss classic cinema like the Sally Field Drama: An Eye For an Eye. They also discuss a super crappy documentary about John Wayne Gacy. Far less clowning than they had hoped. Anyway... The sisters discuss a lot of different subjects with their classic brand of ADHD focus!Enjoy! Thanks for your support!Ciao!
Ciao!Welcome to Season Four, Episode 3 of the Two Guinea Hens. This week your favorite (mostly) Italian sisters talk about all things religion, pandemic, dog poop, pop culture, psychology, family and so much more.

Follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.Ciao,Rosie and Gabby
We did it. We stuck to our word, we made a second episode. Woo Hoo. Ha ha, take that depression. We won (this week).This episode is a little longer than per usual because the Hens got super chatty during the second portion. Hey! You tune in to hear us cluck, right?Thanks for listening, downloading, supporting and sending kind messages. It means the World.Ciao,Rosie and Gabby

Our history!
In this episode of Two Guinea Hens, Rose and Gab discuss the state of the World and the state of their minds."The World is a dumpster fire." - Rose"I watched an episode of Friends and became a Buddhist." - GabBe sure to listen and share your thoughts with Rose and Gab on social media."The World is a Vampire." - The Smashing Pumpkins and The Smashing Rose Bonesso
After hours. After dark. More specifically, after two bottles of Coppola Pinot Noir. Rose hates feet and JD Salinger.Gab's apathetic. Or as a Psychiatrist would describe her, "depressed".Enjoy!Ciao.
In their second episode back, the Two Guinea try super hard not to be political or depressing. Sadly, they don't achieve their goal. Come on, with the current state of our country, what do you expect them to talk about? The World is on FIRE, y'all! They also polished off a bottle of Coppola Pinot Noir during this episode. Salami and Provolone were also present on set.Ciao!
Ciao!First - Let us apologize for going MIA during this Global Pandemic. We both were struggling mentally and we were adjusting to this "new normal". With that said, we're back and we hope you are ready to listen to your favorite Italian-American Sisters discuss mental health, politics, pop culture and life. The next few months of being an American are going to be intense and we hope to keep you laughing, thinking and getting away from your day to day by listening to us.Get cozy, grab a glass of wine (or fruit punch) and enjoy today's episode!Grazie!The Two Guinea Hens (Rosie and Gabby)
#CoronaVirus2020Your favorite sisters are back with another episode. This week they are CoronaVirus obsessed as are most of the World during this GLOBAL PANDEMIC. They talk CoronaVirus, they talk death, they talk about Gab's new "shitty" (literally) neighbors and Rose can't stop hitting the microphone. Enjoy!Ciao!
#CoronaVirus2020Our Two Guinea Hens are NOT panicking about the CoronaVirus. Or are they? In this week's episode the sisters talk about mortality and preparedness and mostly, toilet paper. Also.. Rose teaches the listeners how to make their own pasta while Gab teaches the listeners how to make their own toilet paper (maybe, don't listen to Gab).Thanks for listening!Ciao!
Your favorite Italian (sort of), wine-drinking (swilling) Sisters are back with a new season! In this mini-episode Rosie & Gabby explain where they have been, where they are going and everything in between. They have a new studio and new microphones. However there were a few technical difficulties which is why it's a shorter episode with an abrupt ending, but it's definitely better than nothing. Capisce?
In Episode 6 of Season 2, Rose Bonesso is officially Rosie Davis. Gab Bonesso still remains Gab Bonesso (despite Rose once telling her that Smokey Robinson is her real father). This episode is funny and intense. Rose was already drinking when Gab arrived and then your Two Guinea Hens polished off another bottle of Coppola Pinot Noir. You can actually hear them pouring the wine throughout the episode (ASMR). Ciao!
Season 2, Episode 5.*Recorded the Sunday before Rose's wedding. 10/13*In this episode the Two Guinea Hens (Rosie and Gabby) discuss Rose's upcoming wedding. They then go down a rabbit hole discussing reality competition shows. Fun Fact: Each Hen tried out for a reality show. Listen to find out which HEN auditioned for which show. F-U-N. They discuss generational differences, college, and the elephant in the room. WHAT HAPPENED TO EPISODE FOUR?!!!!!!Thanks for listening!Ciao!
The Hens are finally starting to return to their old form as podcasters. Sure this episode is slightly more "fired up" than most but they talk about serious subjects like "cancel culture" and The Sandy Hook Promise. They talk about less serious subjects too like the 25th Anniversary of the television show Friends and Rose going to see Erasure when she was only 16 years old in Cleveland."My paw was the only part of me in the room with them while they recorded but from what I heard on the other side of the door, this podcast is hysterical. Riveting, passionate and hilarious. I love the Two Guinea Hens and not just because one of them feeds me and cleans my litter box." - Stanley C. Tucci (the C. is for CAT)* All Episodes are ENHANCED but not SPONSORED by Coppola Wine.*Ciao!
In the much anticipated follow-up to their first-ever LIVE performance, your Two Guinea Hens (Rosie and Gabby) were horrified by how much Coppola Pinot Noir they drank at the Brillobox live recording. In fact, they didn't record for almost 2 1/2 weeks due to humiliation, regret and a short stint at the Betty Ford Clinic. In this episode the Two Hens discuss Rose's upcoming wedding, a fight with a Bernedoodle that turned bloody and Gab once again opines over the end of her favorite television shows Speechless and Criminal Minds. It's a more chill conversation (Gab's mania was in check) than their usual podcasts but they hope you enjoy all the same. Stay tuned to the very end when the Hens sing their #1 listener Jill Davis a lullaby.Ciao!
It's the Season 2 return of the Two Guinea Hens! Sisters: Rosie & Gabby host their first LIVE program at the Brillobox in Pgh, PA. The sisters interview the owners of Pgh Kettlebell and Performance (the hens favorite gym in America) Tony and Gina Chappie. They also interview comedian and author Michael Buzzelli about his new book "All I Want For Christmas" which comes out on September 24th. Don't forget to follow #2GH on all social media platforms to keep updated on other LIVE events. Thanks for listening! Ciao!DISCLAIMER: The sisters are VERY drunk in this episode.
In their final episode of Season 1, Co-Hosts/Sisters: Rosie and Gabby talk about the final details leading into Rosie's wedding which is only 75 days away. They discuss the new reboots of Pet Cemetery, Halloween and IT. The sisters also talk about the ridiculousness of spoiler alerts for movies that premiered a decade ago. They also talk about not really loving "Love Actually" anymore (whaaa happened?). Oh, and they premiered a new segment called: ASK ROSE where Gab asks Rose an important life question. Don't forget the sisters have their first LIVE show on August 25th at The Brillobox at 7PM. Shout-outs as always to Pgh Kettlebell and Performance, Detective Dave (Fave Dave) & Amanda and all of our faithful listeners. Ti vogliamo bene!
Episode 19 is possibly the most earnest, honest and personal episode yet. Co-Hosts/Sisters: Rosie and Gabby talk about their family, their mental health and so much more. The sisters finally discuss Stranger Things Season 3 (shout-out to our friends in Georgia).
In Episode 18 of 2GH, our fearless (or full of irrational fears) hosts/sisters: Rosie and Gab discuss AMERICA in a very special Fourth of July/Independence Day (not the Will Smith Movie) Episode. The sisters begin the episode by burping up WHITE CLAW (not sponsored) and then begin talking about the King of Pop: Prince. Yeah, they went there. Rose talks about Prince's dancing in heels and why it makes sense that rockstars do "the drugs". They segway into other topics such as almost getting arrested (paging DETECTIVE DAVE) and women's soccer (which brought Rose to tears because Gab wasn't "drunk enough" to cry. Thanks WHITE CLAW.)Thanks for listening! Ciao!
In Episode 17 of the Two Guinea Hens it's the FATHER'S DAY EPISODE. Hosts/Sisters - Rosie and Gabby share stories about their old man: James "Beanie" Bonesso. They talk about Rose living in the center of GatorsBurgh. Gab also raises the question: 'Do you people live in Antartica?" They discuss Bradley Cooper's "A Star is Born" (and by "discuss" Gab has a mini-stroke bi***ing about it). They educate the listeners on Bullet Journaling. They also call HULU LIVE on the podcast and beg for them to pick up Speechless (formerly of ABC Network).
In this week's episode of The Two Guinea Hens: Sisters/Co-Hosts - Rosie and Gabby discuss the events of the week including: Rose FINALLY finding a wedding dress and a fourth cousin (who is apparently NOT related to Gab. Say what?). Gab talks about her week traveling to different schools and mental health conferences around Pennsylvania. At one point the sisters hear voices coming from Rose's closet and Gab tells a story about a friend of hers who was home-invaded by a strange man. Join Rose and Gab as they chat about a bunch of different stuff over a bottle of Coppola.
In Episode 15 of TWO GUINEA HENS, hosts/sisters: Rosie and Gabby listen to the advice of their listeners and drink even more wine during this episode. The sisters tell fun family stories that involve not one, but two Christmas day shootings. A stabbing of a Grandparent and how gravity combined with booze can knock down a Christmas tree (every Goddamn year). The sisters also show a bit of their snobbish nature when they verbally piss on Mitch Albom's "literature". They also go into detail about Gab possibly thinking Dave's (the Detective) partner was a robot and how she was going to tail Dave to "help" with his current case. Truthfully, if this episode doesn't get Gab committed NOTHING will. Well, until Rose uses her power to 302 her sister.... It's just a matter of time.Thanks for listening.
In Episode 14 - Sister/Co-Hosts/Hens: Rosie and Gabby drink a little (a lot) of wine and spill family stories and Gabby accuses Rose of having crushes on multiple contestants of American Idol and Rose gets MEAN MAD (not really, but tipsy mad). They continue to drink wine and enjoy being nominated for a nomination. That's basically an Oscar to them.
In Episode (LUCKY NUMBER) 13: Hosts/Sisters Rosie and Gabby take on many a political stance. They want Hot Pockets to prove that they are (or could be) REAL FOOD. They demand that the city of Pgh reconsider McKees Rocks (specifically the neighborhood of Norwood) as the TRUE LITTLE ITALY. They also talk politics (briefly), being Italian (per always), Jon Bon Jovi's Rose', dollar store clorox, fun stories about their (jealous) mother and so much more. It's best hour of your day (if that's a true statement; we need to talk.)
In this shorter episode, our Two Guinea Hens, Rosie and Gabby discuss the cancellation of ABC's Speechless (DAMN YOU, ABC!). They talk all things Italian including a town where no one got sick (sort of. Listen!) They also discuss the legal issues with prostitution in that, well, it's illegal.
In Episode 11, Co-Hosts/Sisters: Rosie and Gabby discuss some personal and not so personal subjects. Topics range from but are not limited to: adult baths, licking armpits to get on a similar menstrual cycle, Netflix series: Chambers, Joe Biden for President, The Clinton Family BioDome, HBO's Barry, Bess Armstrong, Hot Pockets and so many other random topics. Rose admittedly wanted most of the podcast edited out, but by the end, Gab begs her to let her keep it in (mostly so the editing process would be easier, but also because Gab doesn't care if you think she's strano).Ciao!
In Episode 10 of Two Guinea Hens - Hosts/Sisters Rosie and Gabby go down memory lane telling family anecdotes. The sisters also converse about Gabby's recent performance with Jen Kirkman at the Rex Theater in Pittsburgh. Gabby is pretty manic in this episode which is a good reminder that mood disorders are legit, yo. The two sisters follow the podcast eating Rosie's homemade spaget and meatballs. Mangiamo!
On this episode of #2GH, hosts/sisters: Rosie and Gabby discuss a new loophole in Ancestry DNA that might reveal that the sisters are more Italian than originally thought in the pilot episode of the podcast. The sisters also discuss the HBO show "My Brilliant Friend" and how it reminds them of their brilliant Grandmother. "If she's so brilliant, why is she sitting in the neighbor's car!" (Tweet the the name of the movie that quote is from and we will send you some #2GH stickers!) Other topics include: Easter Sunday, Jen Kirkman, Speechless, Gina Chappie and Rosie's upcoming wedding.
