And the City

Sara got home from Space at 9am. Alexa is in a dark hole, but kind of thriving? It's 8pm on a Sunday in Cabo and 11pm in Miami so this episode definitely has a different vibe. Episode 6 of Season 2 of Sex and the City, "The Cheating Curve", is a scandalous one. Carrie gets back with Big and doesn't want her friends to know, Charlotte gets "cheated on" on her second date with some shmuck which leads to a very interesting conversation at the farmer's market on what constitutes cheating. Charlotte, sick of men, goes on to try (unsuccessfully) to infiltrate the power lesbian scene in Manhattan.

What constitutes cheating? When does someone qualify as being your ex? We get into it. We talk about when we've been the ones being sneaky and shady, and fully expose our dark side. It's And the City...at NIGHT. Happy full moon!

[00:27:20] What constitutes as cheating?

Are your friends problems your problems by the transitive property of friendship?

In this episode, we get into the tricky topic of getting involved in our friend's toxic affairs.

Carrie's friend Susan Sharon puts Carrie in an awkward situation after Carrie experiences how verbally abusive her husband is and suggests she leaves if she is unhappy. What results is Susan Sharon sleeping on Carrie's couch and the girls get into the cons and cons of getting involved in your friend's affairs. Big comes back around for Carrie's birthday and does something toxic, Miranda is trying to learn how to dirty talk, and Samantha goes to couples therapy.

Overall, the episode emphasizes the need to trust one's instincts, be honest with oneself, and pay attention to red flags in relationships. It suggests that individuals should not expect marriage or other life events to miraculously change someone for the better. Instead, the focus should be on self-awareness and making informed decisions about relationships.

The girls talk full moon and manifesting at the end of the episode and Alexa shares an extremely powerful money mantra. Enjoy!

The season kicks off with Carrie in a major breakup fog, avoiding the ghosts of her past only to run into her ex by the end of the episode and embarrass herself in front of the hot new Yankee she was dating. Charlotte sticks to her formula for getting over someone, and Miranda is fed up with everyone.

Alexa has a crazy mom update that takes up the first 25 minutes so if you want to get right into the Sex and the City part of it all you can skip it.

This episode is all about RELIGION, so you know it's going to be casual and unproblematic. Miranda is dating someone who showers immediately after sex because he is trying to cleanse himself from Nun trauma, Samantha is dating a guy with a micro-penis and can't stop crying about it, Carrie is trying to get invited to Sunday Mass with Mr. Big and his mother, and Charlotte goes to a tarot reading AND a Santero in the Bronx. We get into people who shit on astrology and Alexa talks about something she has never told ANYONE, the time she got spiritually conned by some blonde bitch in Miami Beach.

That's a wrap on Season 1! Thanks for listening tune in next week for Season 2. WE LOVE YA!!!!!!

Carrie farts in bed with Big and spirals into oblivion. No, we're not kidding. Miranda tells her she's being insane. She can't even fathom the courage to tell Charlotte. Samantha looks her dead in the face and says, "oh honey, big mistake." Mr. Big actually is the MVP of the episode, it might be his most redeeming moment on the series actually. Listen to our take to find out why.

Thanks for watching, listening, stalking, talking about it!

Love ya,

Episode 7 is all about monogamy- is it possible, is it natural, is it worth it? Well you'll be getting a pretty one sided answer because both your hosts put the "hope" in hopeless romantic. The girls get into the initial stages of infatuation and how some people go all in on one person while others find it more natural to casually date until "the talk". Sara keeps asking her guy friends if they believe in monogamy and we get into major trust issues and how to believe in love no matter what. It's a cute one!!!! Calling all romantics <333333

The episode starts out with some Miami catch up, the girls are back home and running around town. Episode 6 of SATC, Secret Sex, tackles such relatable and complicated relationship dynamics. From the secret rules of how long to wait before sleeping with someone, to the secrecy of dating someone you don't really want anyone to know about, to the realities of feeling shame and anxiety over that shame. Mr. Big's red flags are getting more alarming as he seems to be simultaneously obsessed with her physically but also ashamed to be with her. Miranda wins the cringe award of the episode, and Charlotte remains full of surprises.

Season 1 Episode 5 of Sex and the City explores four distinct perspectives when it comes to the power of the female sex. It's definitely an episode worth watching there is so much to discuss. Can women receive freely without any expectations? How in power can you be while using sex for power? Is there really such a thing as free lunch? Is there anything on earth more powerful than the female sex? It's been starting wars since the beginning of time...

Season 1 Episode 2 of Sex and the City is called Models and Mortals. The girls explore their insecurities or lack there of when it comes to the topic of models. Mr. Big calls Carrie's column "cute", but saves the day with a killer line at the end where he says that beauty is great and all but at the end of the day you just want to be with the person that makes you laugh. Alexa goes into her personal experience as a model and they both discuss work they've imagined getting done and how impossible beauty standards have been and still are. Sara talks about what happens when you're in the middle of two friends that are romantically involved, and how it's usually never a good idea. Oh also, have you ever heard of a Full Moon hangover?
