The two Gen Xers on the show ask our resident Gen Zer how many things from our era he knows. Surprising, shocking, and funny….to say the least. We also talk about the major drama surrounding the Blake Lively/Jason Baldoni scandal and the massive lawsuit in our Double D Celeb Gossip segment. And, do you think Laura’s shoes are sensible and classy or ugly and witchy? She thinks they are great, the boys, not so much! Love you for listening. We’re here to make you laugh and take your mind off the daily grind.

Love your podcast!!

Fun fact, Erik modeled for Hugo Boss, among other designers, when he was a young thing. The story about how he was discovered is unbelievable! You’ve gotta hear it, including a story of the one time he modeled hung-over. This is kind of the “Erik Show” because after that he talks about his BIRTHDAY trip to Mexico complete with the playing of my birthday song to him. Producer Bryan cringing through the whole thing. Haha.
Unapologetically unfiltered.
New episodes coming your way next week!
Love your podcast.

We're all decked out in our terrible Temu outfits from the last episode to show you the horror. Producer Bryan makes the call...who ultimately won the big contest this year? Speaking of this year, we discuss our personal highs and special moments from 2024 and what we want to accomplish in 2025. Laura's big one might surprise you. Laura also gets serious for a little bit to talk about Charlie's Story and how she almost lost her precious son at birth. She explains how grateful she is to the people who saved him at Rady Children's Hospital. It's been such a fun year putting on this podcast twice a week for our fifth year in a row.

Watch the holiday horror unfold in this very funny, entertaining, ugly, shocking episode. Who do you think won the Terrible Temu contest? We’d love your input.

Erik busts out the Golden Globe nominees and we were stunned. The three of us haven't heard of half of these movies. Have you? Laura had an audition for a game show last week. Did she make it? And, have you heard of the Holi-Dog? Laura's Rando News segment includes that story and more. Coming up next week...our Terrible Temu Christmas Gift Exchange. It's ON between Laura and Erik. Thanks for being part of our podcast family.
Love your podcast.

This could be the most awkward show we've ever done..The Laura Cain After Dark Stand-Up Comedy Contest. Each of us had to perform a 2-3 minute set in front of professional comedian, Mal Hall, who was asked to give honest opinions about who did the best and who bombed. This is a can't-miss episode...the nervousness, the awkward content, and Mal's feedback are priceless. This will make you cringe and crack up at the same time. And, Laura thinks she took it too far and may have pissed off Erik forever. Mal is amazing for agreeing to do this. He's hysterical and you can find him at The Comedy Club in La Jolla, Lou Lous at The Lafayette Hotel, and possibly on Netflix soon. Love your podcast!

In our last episode, Laura served Erik and Producer Bryan her mom's infamous Jello creation. One of the ingredients of the horror is walnuts. Laura forgot that Erik is highly allergic to nuts. So, poor Erik sniffles, sweats, and tries to breathe while we do the show. He survived. This episode barely made it. It's funny, though.
