S5, E6: I Know It Sounds Absurd

Queenie went down a YouTube rabbit hole after watching Conan interview an intimacy coordinator, which led her to a segment featuring a young man whose company makes thirty-two custom condom sizes and offers a hotline where you can speak to said gentleman if you’re unsure which size to order. This leads to a bit about guidance counselors not recommending “talking about dicks all day” as a career path. Queenie’s advice: measure twice, cut once. You only want to make that mistake one time. They are crying laughing.

Also: screwworms are back, ocean monitoring equipment is being removed, and there’s no oversight of anything anymore. If you see things moving in your food, just ignore it.

The Fuck It List this week is a serious one: a friend of Queenie’s, a woman their age with significant cardiac history, had her blood pressure medication changed and spent weeks feeling terrible, voicing concern at her hospital stay, being dismissed, and only getting the medication switched back when her primary care physician called the cardiologist directly. Within a day, she felt better. The fuck it goes to not giving up, to trusting your own body, and to not allowing your problems to be minimized by a medical system that still, somewhere in its bones, operates like doctors are gods you stand up for when they enter the room. Queenie’s message: advocate for yourself, and if you can’t, find someone who can.

S5, E7: Just to Boogie with You

This episode opens the way the best ones do — mid-ramble, mid-life, totally unrushed. Queenie and TT kick things off with a digression about estate sales and thrift shops, specifically the unsettling realization that the stuff of their childhoods is now being tagged and priced at church basements across America. Harvest gold Tupperware. Avocado canisters. Country geese with blue bows around their necks. Roosters. Wallpaper you could strip with a steam iron and seventeen years of your life. They’re not mourning exactly — more like doing that thing where you laugh because the alternative is sitting with the actual weight of time passing, and who has the energy for that.

S5, E6: It’s a Family Affair

This week, TT survives a heroic (if bruising) escape from a dream assailant via an impressive mid-sleep dismount, and Queenie’s sister quits her toxic job with no safety net and full support from the hosts. The two dig into a JAMA study on why older adults are cannabis’s fastest-growing demographic — and have thoughts about whether “I just like the way I feel” counts as a valid medical reason. Plus: Conan O’Brien’s edible anxiety, Gas Pops, a commitment ceremony, and a very spirited TT’s Choice about microdosing before job interviews.

S5, E5: Just Get Yourself Together

Queenie and TT check in from opposite sides of the country — one narrowly missed by a falling tree, one managing four international assignees and a rogue brain. They cover Target selling cannabis beverages in red states, a gummy rebrand nobody asked for, the question of which single hour of the day you’d choose to get high (they’d never pick the same one), and why women their age should stop hiding when things are hard. It ends with an extended meditation on muffs. Obviously.

S5, E4: Think I’d Crumble?


This week, Queenie and TT are finally face to face — no camera, just vibes and good green — and they’re covering everything from cemetery maintenance to artisanal cannabis brands, and a surprisingly moving conversation about friendship, grief, and the art of letting go.

TT opens up about honoring a deathbed promise to her late father by finally visiting the family mausoleum — a four-slot marble structure near the flagpole that hadn’t seen a cleaning in decades. It’s funny, it’s tender, and it somehow leads into a broader conversation about rituals, memory, and what it means to hold space for the people we’ve lost.

On the consumption check, Queenie is rolling with Ghost Z-Animal, a smooth indica that’s been helping manage chronic foot pain from bone spurs, while TTs working through a deal she scored at Royale Flower — two packs of Wana gummies for the price of one. Speaking of Royale, the hosts spotlight Silly Nice, a Black-owned, veteran-owned, small-batch New York cannabis brand that just restocked at their favorite women-owned Albany dispensary. If you care about where your cannabis comes from and who’s behind it, this is a brand worth knowing.

TT’s Choice gets personal this week. The scenario: would you rather have your adult kid move back in, or your mother? What starts as a silly either/or spirals into a genuinely moving meditation on time, mortality, and the complicated dynamics of being someone’s child while also being someone’s parent. Bring tissues. Or a gummy. Honestly, both.

S5, E3: So Tweedley-Dee, Tweedley-Dum

Join our hosts, Queenie & TT as they share humorous anecdotes about daily life, offering women’s perspectives on lifestyle and wellness. TT casually drops that her breakfast friends are considering purchasing firearms because they’re worried America is heading toward Mad Max territory. Queenie’s jaw hits the floor. A real, surprisingly tender conversation follows about fear, scarcity mentality, whether humanity trends toward cooperation or self-preservation, the American Revolution as a civil war, the London Blitz, Sophie’s Choice, and — somehow — whether dogs get a better afterlife than people (they clearly do, and TT would prefer to go where the dogs go). 

S5, E2: They Smilin’ in Your Face

Queenie and TT are deep in spring mode — bonsai-ing trees, battling fence encroachers, and sending love to their inexplicably large fanbase in Hungary. They break down the latest cannabis rescheduling news, play a round of “Would You Rather,” and stumble into a genuinely beautiful conversation about legacy, grief, and what people will say about you when you’re gone. Plus: infused honey, a pre-roll named Gas Leak, American flag politics, and a musical toast to Budapest.

S5, E1: Just Enough To Show You Care

This week, Queenie & TT ride out literal and emotional storms—from Midwest tornado warnings to the unpredictable reality of caregiving for aging parents.

Queenie shares the heartbreaking contrast between her mom’s structured weekdays and disoriented weekends, highlighting the exhausting “Jekyll & Hyde” nature of cognitive decline. Meanwhile, TT reflects on the quiet (and not-so-quiet) challenges of midlife caregiving, identity shifts, and learning—finally—to prioritize self-care without guilt.

The duo also dives into:
**A bizarre new cannabis policy workaround that could impact the entire hemp industry 
**Why creativity might matter more than relaxation (yes, really) 
**The emotional tug-of-war between productivity and purpose 
**And a very satisfying “F*ck It” moment about refusing to tolerate disrespect—anywhere, especially where you spend your money 

As always, it’s real talk, a little dark humor, and the kind of conversation that makes you feel seen—especially if you’re living that sandwich-generation life.

S4, E52: We’ve Got the Groove

In this special 420 episode of the Closet Disco Queen Podcast, Queenie and TT end Season 4 with cannabis, comedy, and a conversation that feels both timely and overdue.

The heart of the episode is a conversation with Shannon Donnelly, founder of Healthy Honeys, who joins the queens to talk about her company’s mission: making cannabis education approachable, especially for women. Shannon explains the importance of solventless products, why women over 50 are a huge but underserved cannabis audience, and how her “party” model brings women together to learn, ask questions, and explore cannabis in a relaxed, social setting. Think Tupperware party… but make it weed, wellness, and actual useful information.

S4, E51: Heinz 57 and French Fried Potatoes

This week on Closet Disco Queen, Queenie and TT connect across borders as TT records from sunny Mexico (where cannabis is still surprisingly illegal) while Queenie holds down the damp, chilly Northeast.

From sunscreen breakthroughs to beachside tequila compromises, the episode kicks off with vacation vibes before diving into everything from cannabis science to politics, relationships, and midlife confidence.
