Taking it in the Shorts

Our monthly unscripted convo

Happy Father’s Day! ‘Tis the week for our unscripted conversation!

Awkward? Yes.

Cringy? Mmmhmm.

Fun? The most.

We have an unscripted convo (rather than writing) about once a month. Why? Because we’ve never felt so alive.

If you missed the first time we did this, here’s the link to catch up!

We have a great time with it, and we hope you enjoy. (If you typically read—rather than listen to—our stuff, you can listen to our convo by pressing the “play” button near the top of the post.)

Here are a few highlights of this week’s convo:

1:19 — Talk about summer in Florida and Bethany’s pre-run donut disaster (“I might hit the floor.”)

3:02 — Our review of The Idea of You the movie (Shoutout to our pal,

Kuleigh Baker

who also discussed it in her Substack

Overbooked Mama

) (“It just plain blew.”)

8:00 — Kara talks about her recent read, The Last Castle by Denise Kiernan and her trip to the Biltmore in Asheville, North Carolina. Here are the promised pics.

Insta worthy, am I right?

10:52 — Kara is deeply concerned about the future of Jack in the Box. Do you share this concern? Visit heyjackbox.com and tell them yourself!

16:35 — Kara gives an update on her attempts to abstain from Starbucks (one of Kara’s 24 changes for 2024) and how much money she’s saved by not showing up (testing the guru theory that your daily latte can actually make a difference in your finances)

21:29 — We turn a phrase like Truman Capote (“It’s like taking it in the shorts.”) (“Do you know what it means to be catfished?”)

24:45 — We discuss Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship (Bethany refers to The Birth Order Book by Dr. Kevin Leman)

29:20 — “Ask Bethany!” — A segment that allows our Knockers to ask Bethany anything you want and receive an honest, unfiltered response! Have a submission? Leave it in the caaaaaaawments! (“You should get out if you can.”)

33:34 — “Taste of Kara” — see previous Biltmore and Jack in the Box discussions (Also, Bethany checked out last week’s taste, Bone Valley, and loved!)

34:32 — A preview of next week’s piece about Kara becoming a plant lady (“It’s gunna be riveting.”)
