After a weekend of tornado watches near Dr. Naomi's home, she and Jordana examine what rattles them both the most, especially when it comes to the unexpected and uncontrollable. But the storms in Dr. Naomi's hometown aren't the only thing brewing! The Overshare this week gets into the dirty topic of jealousy when one woman spills that her BFF's new, very cool, boyfriend is making her a little envious. In a complete 180, the Betchicist of the week comes from a listener who is trapped hearing weekly rants from their brother-in-law about his marriage, which has them feeling at a loss of how to escape the awkwardness. Speaking of chaos, Dr. Naomi helps set an intention for a Betch that is increasingly overwhelmed by the prospect of robots replacing all human interaction, and the hosts touch on the ever growing importance of making time for connection with others. It wouldn't be an Oversharing episode without a few Triggering scenarios and so Jordana and Dr. Naomi close out the episode with a little look at work/life boundaries and a friend and soon to be god parent that would rather scuba dive than celebrate their new god-child.

The ups and downs of puppy ownership continue for Jordana while Dr. Naomi is working to embrace that which she can not control when it comes to gardening. The Overshare of the week dives into the often divisive issue of whether or not to post images of children on social media when one Betch expresses her concerns with AI porn and online imagery. Continuing down the lines of “immoral acts,” a listener asks about the ethics of one couple's choice to crowdfund a house downpayment in exchange for a wedding invitation and Dr. Naomi and Jordana have thoughts... Later, both hosts offer up some salient advice after a write-in asks for ways to get around a lack of self confidence when it comes to creative pursuits. The Triggered of the episode comes from a childless listener who was told she and her hubby are “not a family” and a new segment sponsored by American Home Shield, “Planting Roots,” discusses all the reasons house hunting alone is hard but a commendable achievement.

The demands of puppy ownership are weighing on Jordana and Dr. Naomi offers her some “advice” on ways to not only work with the new dog but to work on her feelings around it all. But the work this week begins when one listener opens up about a recent breakup she endured via text after a seemingly good few months together. Our Overshare this week comes from a Betch who is anticipating the loss of her job after a very eerie letter was delivered to her at work and Jordana and Dr. Naomi offer up empathy and tactile tools for getting through the anxiety of it all. The Betchicist of the week presents the question if “is it okay to tell someone that you won't refer them for a job?” after a listener is approached by a former employee they know won't be the right fit for a role at their new company. And the episode closes out with some Triggered submissions from two listeners who feel like their family members could have chosen different words for their comments.

Are Brussels sprouts a millennial vegetable, and is that why they're not as trendy as they used to be? Sami and Aleen explain to Jordana why everyone this past weekend was “holding space” for the lyrics of Defining Gravity, and why the Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo press tour has been the inspiration for countless memes. This episode was recorded on Monday, so come back next week for their thoughts on the film. In the meantime, Aleen finally rewatched the original Gladiator, and it did make her cry. Our Betch of the Week is Tracy Gilchrist, the Out reporter who gave us the incredible gift of that Wicked interview, and we're sending the pilgrims to the Caymans for a multitude of past sins.  Make sure to finish reading Such A Bad Influence by Olivia Muenter, so you can join us on Monday, December 2nd for the final episode of our Betches Book Club, presented by Nutella Biscuits!
