    Brilliant Observations

    Real friends. Real funny. We swear. Like, a lot. Join us for unscripted, uncensored, and definitely unsuitable-for-work comedy conversation about relationships, marriage, friendship, sex, hope, parenting and prospering at midlife. It's like grabbing a weekly cocktail with your favorite girlfriends for a candid look at life that lifts you up as it pulls you in. From religion to porn to money, fears, our bodies, our brains, secrets, failures, food, family and finding your path, almost nothing is off-limits (except politics — gross). Longtime friends Melissa Brilliant and Amy Fugazi overshare about everything with the love and trust that only comes from a lifetime of being there for each other. So cut through the fake friends who try to glamourize all the BS masquerading as midlife. We're the bawdy, brutally honest best friends you never knew you had. And we always pick up the check. Love us? Tell your friends. Hate us? Tell your therapist.

    Self Care and Shoulder Squats

    Self Care and Shoulder Squats

    If you only knew. This week, we discuss the many twists and turns of planning for a whole new you in the coming new year. That, plus strangers removing their clothing to take a dump on the side of the highway. Which kind of feels like the same thing.

    Hannukah, Christmas, and the Invisible Onion

    Hannukah, Christmas, and the Invisible Onion

    A holiday pre-cap, yesteryear recap, and New Years claptrap all in one. In true Dickensian fashion, Missy is visited by the Ghost of Latkes Past. Amy continues the long slow march up Cookie Mountain (more than a thousand baked and counting). And everyone enjoys a few oddly timed cultural references to herpes, chlamydia, seasonal acne and our favorite, the Invisible Onion. Happy Holidays, everyone!

    Christmas Injections

    Behold, the magic of the Missy Gift. Join us, Dear Listener, as Amy bestolls the incandescent joy that is to experience such a miraculous treat. And reminds us all how much we truly suck at gift-giving in comparison. (Just in time for the holidays.)

    Culinary Trauma

    Culinary Trauma

    It's Nostalgic Tales of Family Meals Past, Dear Listener, and we are here for it. Join us as we wander down a culinary memory lane that neither exists in reality nor disappoints. All that plus Thanksgiving holiday recaps, female eating disorders (don't worry, it's all judgy, no triggers) and a thoughtful reminder that self care shouldn't take all that much thought.

    Missy Tests a Marriage

    Missy Tests a Marriage

    Oh, dear. Our good friend “Joyce” accidentally overhears some eye-widening content incriminating — AHeM — involving her spouse. What should she do with this ill-begotten intel? And how long must she wait until her spouse spills the beans? 

    Odds are Joyce explodes before we ever find out. 

    Also covered is the high cost of low brow comedy, frequency of bathing, participation trophy walkathons and Hoodie Hate. You heard me.

    Like New Is Not, Like, New

    Gather round, kittens. Missy and Amy traverse the murky, Karenesque waters of receiving "like new" products after paying an "actually very new" price. All that, plus sugar-based sexy talk, pre-wedding packing plans and life as an empty nester. Kinda. 

    Have you joined the Missy Pizza Party yet? Take the Pizza Challenge and share your love on our socials now. There just might be something wonderful in it for you.  

    And now, we promote.

    Feeling frisky? Why not tell another human to listen to this show. You might find it's just the kind of unexpected pickup line you've been looking for.

    Or, stay single and stalk us yourself.

    Penny for your Thoughts?
    Full disclosure: there is no penny. If you've got four minutes to kill, we'd love for you to waste it taking our Listener Demographic Survey. We'll use this data to fashion hand-crafted macaroni scultures of historic female librarians. And possibly to appease our soon-to-be sponsors. It's all anonymous, kids, so please be honest. 

    You can find the survey here:
