About this episode
Joy and Claire celebrate March by discussing social media burnout, practical home life tips, and a recap of Love Is Blind Ohio.
March Check-In: Lifties, Social Media Burnout, Dog Hair Hacks, Moab’s Ageless Party Scene & Love Is Blind Ohio Joy and Claire celebrate reaching March! They discuss stepping back from social media—especially TikTok—due to overwhelming news cycles, algorithm/terms concerns, and the unnatural pressure to broadcast constant reactions, preferring fact-based sources and recommending Pantsuit Politics’ State of the Union recap. The conversation shifts to practical home life: kids’ laundry-folding boards, constant vacuuming with multiple dogs, Roombas, grooming and shedding tips, and dental care products. Claire describes Moab’s intergenerational, highly active culture after a themed birthday dance party, then Joy gives a spoiler-filled recap of the new Love Is Blind Ohio season, focusing on a disliked contestant and doubts most couples will last. 00:00 Hello March 00:16 Liftie Horror Stories 01:19 Why Skiers Complain 03:19 Bad Snow Season Update 04:07 Quitting TikTok for Now 06:49 Social Media Reaction Spiral 09:56 Mixed Messaging and Gaslighting 11:24 Watching the State of the Union 14:43 Laundry Folding Boards 16:23 Dog Hair and Vacuum Life 17:04 Feeling Bad for the Roomba 19:48…
