This week Victoria & Ashley are wrapping up their discussion about the body positive movement including criticisms of the movement, the influence of TikTok, our perspective of the Kardashian photo drama and other celebrities impact plus what we can do moving forward. Whether or not you support the movement, there is a lot to take into consideration about what it means to not only celebrate all bodies in all different shapes/sizes but to also recognize that our bodies should not be used to determine our self worth or be considered the most important part of who we are.

This week we're discussing actress/musician/icon Brittany Murphy's mysterious death in 2009. Brittany was only 32 years old when she tragically passed away, which is alarming on it's own but wait until we introduce her husband & mother, two bizarre characters in this story. This episode has it all... an MIA father who returns, tabloid rumors, engagements, paparazzi, fraud, lawsuits, deportation, a mid-flight "heart attack", paranoia, an apparent last minute wedding, toxic mold & supposed arsenic poisoning. The majority of this story takes place while Brittany Murphy lived in an unofficial (Some Dumb Chicks official) possessed house... You may know it. The Los Angeles mansion was previously owned by the one & only Britney Spears. You know the one she sold after having nightmares about her own death in the house. This gets crazy! We will forever miss Brittany Murphy & can't help but wonder what successes she would have if she didn't leave us too soon.

We will share how they were discovered, the very public choices they made, how their fame was affected and changed as they grew up.

At the young age of 16, she was a very successful comedienne who many believed had what it would take to end up on SNL one day, so how did she up in a conservatorship? Join us as we dive deeper into Amanda's teenage years to help understand what led to some of her more recent erratic behavior including her Twitter rampage and an official mental health diagnosis.

It's only been a week, but we missed all of you so this week Ashley & Victoria are back with a bang... pun intended. The topic of discussion this week is the viral website and phenomenon OnlyFans. Join us as we breakdown wtf OnlyFans is, where/how it started and the catalysts that helped it grow exponentially in 2020. While the site is full of both amateur and professional content creators/adult entertainers, there has been a handful of influencers, vloggers & celebrities who joined... but none created as many waves as Bella Thorne did when she quite literally broke the OF system. PLUS if you've ever wondered how much money can be earned from OnlyFans, we're sharing some statistics that might shock you. Because this topic involves individual in the sex work industry we also want to provide a trigger warning as the discussion does include the topic of human sex trafficking.
