Womaning

Um, what's a family? Babies? Dogs? Spouses? Who knows. Lauren and Caitlin get to the bottom of the issues with Cody Lindquist (Our Cartoon President) and Jeena Bloom (Get Nailed).

Caitlin & Lauren are joined my Lydia Boaz, a social worker and founder of the Boaz Org for Youth, who works with vulnerable undocumented populations in New York City, and comedian Natasha Vaynblat, who tells us about the challenges of immigrating from Russia including bad jokes, no sleep overs and helping her grandma learn English. They all take the US Citizenship test and ponder America's love of cheese.

Shrimp in a plastic bags, dream treehouses elude us, uncles keeping bringing up Trump and can we all still be princesses? The audience helps Lauren and Caitlin help you survive the holidays!

It's Q4, y'all! Time to get ready to stay inside, listen to music, watch TV and read books. Hosts Lauren and Caitlin go guest-less and dish on all their faves, even though Caitlin embarrassingly can't think of any books she's ever read until she does. Lauren believes buying a Halloween costume is "cheating," Caitlin won't turn the heat on, and there might be an opera singer in the background of this episode. Woman up!

Hosts Caitlin Bitzegaio and Lauren Adams talking eating hummus and being dog creeps. Guests Emily Wallace explains Reiki, a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. Somehow this also leads to the group's mutual childhood crush on Christopher Plummer and who were the worst side characters on Jersey Shore. 

Lauren and Caitlin talk to Cathryn Mudon (Higgins, Improvised Seinfeld) who is both a performer and former personal shopping. What basics do we need? Are online subscription services worth it? What's up with the way British people dress? Caitlin's phone died stranding her in front of her friend's office and Lauren considers taking Caitlin's last name. 

Caitlin and Lauren talk with designer Lacey Voss and comedian Glo Tavarez about sizes: plus sizes, minus sizes, why are their different prints for different sizes and what's up with Uniqlo, in general. We get audience questions about why big ladies have to dress like rockabillies and differences in sizing between the US and the UK. 

Lauren and Caitlin talk engagements with The Knot founder Carley Roony, comedian Tessa Hersh, and photographer Sarah Bibi Gainer. We learn the most expensive weddings ever and introduce the Womaning Players.

Lauren & Caitlin explore contouring, a makeup technique created by maybe Marie Antoinette or Kylie Jenner with guest Cholula Lemon aka Michael Ray Solis. They discuss makeup in the drag queen world and being sued by a hot suace. Caitlin's house is full of pads and Lauren cried in a dog park. Looks like we're Womaning! 

This week's topic is ACTIVISM! We'll be talking with hilarious organizing pros Lauren Besser, Priya Patel and Lizz Winstead from Lady Parts Justice League and Jess McIntosh from EMILY's List! We'll be talking PRACTICAL. What do you wear? How do you get involved? What's a clever sign? How do we defeat Trump?
