The Squeeze

In this week's episode, Tay sits down with actress Carlacia Grant! Carlacia opens up about her feelings wrapping Netflix’s Outer Banks and the emotional letdown that came with it, what she's excited for fans to see in the final season, and what her character Cleo has taught her over the years. She shares what she's most proud of from being part of the show, including what it has meant to her playing such a prominent role and to be a role model for other young Black women. Carlacia gets candid about how she's kept her mental and emotional routines intact as her life has become bigger and busier, what she does to unwind and take care of herself, and where her resilience comes from. She also reflects on what it means to surrender in this season of life, including learning to let go of control. Carlacia bravely opens up about experiencing a significant loss that ultimately led her to therapy, how that experience changed the way she approaches taking care of herself, and the biggest thing she's taken away from the process. She also shares advice for anyone scared to start therapy, her journaling techniques, the signs her body gives her when it's time to slow down, and one tool from her own toolkit that listeners can incorporate into their own lives.Be sure to follow Carlacia on https://instagram.com/carlaciagrant/!Check out the latest season of Outer Banks here: https://www.netflix.com/title/80236318To email us your questions or share your story, you can reach out to [email protected] sure to rate, review, and follow the podcast so you don't miss an episode!

In this week's episode, Tay sits down with actors Angourie Rice and Spike Fearn to talk about their new film Finding Emily! They give an inside look at the movie, which follows Owen searching for a woman he barely knows while Emily approaches love from a much more analytical perspective, and share whether they personally lean more toward their characters or the opposite when it comes to romance. Angourie talks about how fun it was to play a character so different from who she is in real life, and Spike opens up about what it was like portraying Owen's unusually soft, sincere, and emotionally open version of masculinity onscreen. They also get into some of the deeper questions the film raises, including whether we are sometimes more attached to our idea of a person than to who they actually are, whether social media makes it easier to genuinely know someone or just gives us more material to build an imagined version of them, and whether love is created by one magical moment or by spending meaningful time together. They also get personal, sharing what rest and self care look like for each of them and how they navigate the emotional letdown that can come after wrapping a film.Watch Finding Emily in theaters beginning August 28th, 2026!Be sure to follow Angourie on https://instagram.com/angourierice/ and Spike on https://instagram.com/spikefearn/!To email us your questions or share your story, you can reach out to [email protected] sure to rate, review, and follow the podcast so you don't miss an episode!

In this week's episode, Tay is back for a solo episode to share an honest and personal update on life in the third trimester! She talks through all the things that have gotten harder as her belly has grown, from doing dishes to shaving to lotioning her legs, and gets into the other wild symptoms and side effects of pregnancy that have caught her off guard. She shares her experience failing the one hour glucose test and then passing the three hour test, and gives some updates on what she's been into lately, including getting into reading and her thoughts on Amazon Prime Video’s Off Campus TV show. Tay also gets into push presents, maternity shoots and the complicated feelings of not fully loving her body right now while still wanting to celebrate this season, and all the nesting she's been doing to get ready for baby. She gets real about how hard it can be to get through everyday tasks when you're pregnant and physically exhausted, and dives into what pregnant women really mean when they say they can't wait to have their bodies back. She wraps up with a heartfelt message to other women and moms about just how much women go through to bring a human into the world!To email us your questions or share your story, you can reach out to [email protected] sure to rate, review, and follow the podcast so you don't miss an episode!
