The Unpolished Two

Week two and somehow we’re still on schedule. 😂
This week, we’re talking parenting battles, school drama, the lives we thought we’d have at 22, internet chaos, Fat Bear Week, black ranch (and black toilets), and the reality that loving motherhood doesn’t mean loving every part of parenting.
Then ChatGPT joins us for Quick Dry—and immediately becomes the third member of the podcast.
Parenting is hard. Uno might be harder. 💅

Season 2! We’re back—and apparently, nothing has changed. 😂
After a summer break, we’re catching up on travel, school chaos, parenting fails, lice (yes, lice 😭), reality TV, and everything in between. Then we make the questionable decision to let ChatGPT analyze our lives based on our conversations…and it knows us a little too well.
Turns out our lives don’t have topics. They have browser tabs—and none of them ever close. 💅

School’s out, schedules are shifting, and we’re officially kicking off summer! ☀️
 
In this season finale, we’re taking a look back at the school year and sharing our biggest Nailed It and Failed It moments as moms, wives, professionals, and humans just trying to keep it all together.
 
We also chat about the realities of transitioning into summer while working from home, surviving the chaos of having kids home all day, and what we’re hoping to focus on during the break.
 
Plus, we’re sharing what’s next for The Unpolished Two:
🔎 Filed & Fatal with Kaleigh — a new true crime podcast for all our fellow crime junkies.
💙 Unpolished Stories with Steph — candid conversations and meaningful stories with people from every chapter of life.
 
While we’re pressing pause on the main podcast for the summer, don’t worry—we’ll be back this fall when the kids head back to school with more laughs, more honesty, and plenty of unpolished moments.
 
Thank you for spending this season with us. See you in the fall, friends. 💙

School is officially winding down and the moms are barely holding it together 😂 In this episode of The Unpolished Two, we’re diving into the chaos of end-of-year ceremonies, awkward mom small talk, and the emotional support iced coffees getting us through May.
We also spill the polish on the latest Summer House drama and give a teaser for our brand new true crime podcast, Filed & Fatal with Kaleigh 👀🔎
Plus, we talk about the new Netflix documentary The Crash and why everyone is suddenly becoming an internet detective again.
Basically? It’s school drop-off exhaustion meets Bravo gossip meets true crime era… and honestly, we’re thriving.

Join us as we walk through Maycember stress that all us mothers feel! We dive into new and returning Bravo shows, while also touching on communication in evolving friendships. Mothering is hard, adult friendships are hard, and we are here to share our experiences! Grab your coffee, mimosa or water (if your into that kinda thing) and lets be UNPOLISHED!

We dive deep into Motherhood advice from YOU - the listeners! Thank you for all the amazing feedback on our Mother's Day social media ask, ya'll came through and made this week's POD easy to dive into! Grab your coffee (or marg - we don't judge) and let's be UNPOLISHED together. 

This week we’re officially blaming the chaos on the Uranus shift… because honestly, what else explains all of this?
 
We dive into the astrology behind what’s going on for Pisces and Leo right now (spoiler: sudden changes, emotional plot twists, and a little identity crisis energy), and how it’s hitting our real lives as we head into summer. Think: work-from-home survival, life transitions, and the art of radical delegation before we completely lose it.
 
Of course, we had to unpack the Summer House leaked audio (because WHAT was that), the ongoing Bravo chaos, and the “secret lives” of the Mormon wives of OC… who may or may not actually be Mormon?? We also get into that iconic purse exchange moment and why it lives rent-free in our minds.
 
And to wrap it up, we hit you with some chaotic Quick Dry Questions—because nothing says stability like rapid-fire answers when you’re already spiraling.
 
Basically: it’s messy, it’s unfiltered, and it’s very much a “new season, who dis?” energy.
 
Stay unpolished, friends. 💅

Life is chaos, we’re barely keeping up, and reality TV is not helping. We’re catching up on where we’ve been, unpacking the The Bachelorette drama (and why it might not be airing like we thought), obsessing over The Traitors, and sharing the kind of unhinged life stories that can only happen to us.

Petals, Pranks & Poolside Drama is your go-to catch-up for everything chaotic, heartfelt, and reality TV obsessed. This episode kicks off with where we’ve been lately (because life has been doing the most), and yes—we’re definitely feeling the absence of KK this episode and saying it out loud 💔
From there, we get real about mental health, shifting moods, and the messy in-between moments that don’t make it to Instagram. But don’t worry—we balance it out with some classic April Fools energy, sharing the best (and worst) pranks, plus the kind of jokes that maybe went a little too far.
Of course, we had to talk about the shocking news of The Bachelorette getting canceled—what it means, our hot takes, and whether we’re spiraling just a little. Then we dive straight into all the Summer House tea—supporting our girl Ciara the entire way! 
To wrap it all up, we hit you with quick, funny rapid-fire questions that somehow turn into full-blown stories—because self-control and short stories is not our strength.
It’s real life, reality TV, and a little bit of unpolished energy… just the way we like it.
