S4, E39: Get Up, Stand Up

Posted on by

This week, Queenie and TT start with a real-life reset—respiratory crud, low energy, and the glamorous pre-beach ritual of “thinning the forest”—before pivoting into bigger stuff: protests, ICE fear and outrage, and the emotional fatigue of watching people normalize what should never be normal.

They share a surprising bright spot (major progress on the kitchen pack-up), introduce a brilliant “legacy gift” idea involving Queenie’s iconic ceramic pig heads, and serve up the usual fan-favorite segments: What Have You Consumed Today, The Latest Bud Buzz, Could’ve Done This If Stoned, and a round of Stoned or Kaka featuring closet “tomatoes” and an all-time classic: calling 911 during a drug deal.

The F*** It List this week goes straight for the jugular: f* pretending it’s okay to be okay with Trumpers.**

S4, E38: Why Don’t You Try, Try

Posted on by

In this episode, Queenie and TT ring in the new year with their signature blend of humor, candor, and side-eye, starting with global political shockwaves and landing squarely in the realities of midlife bodies, boundaries, and burnout.

They talk cannabis consumption, Massachusetts moving forward with social-consumption licenses, the rapid saturation of dispensaries, and what it means when access finally becomes… ordinary. Along the way, they debut original AI-assisted music, play a round of Did This Happen Stoned or Is It Kaka? (featuring hemp-filled urinals and allegedly high chickens), and add a crucial entry to the F*** It List: being available 24/7.

Equal parts funny, unnerving, and grounding, this episode is about paying attention, setting limits, and maybe—just maybe—trying something different.

S4, E37: So Proud to Live

Drop us a line or two . . .

In this post-holiday episode, Queenie and TT ease their way out of Christmas and toward the New Year with warmth, humor, and perspective. They reflect on family gatherings, traditions, grief, nostalgia, and the strange emotional whiplash that follows the holidays—when the house empties, the cookies remain, and memories linger.

The Queens check in on what they’ve consumed, share laughter over matching dog pajamas, holiday indulgences, and the realities of midlife bodies, then move into cannabis news from across the country, highlighting the inconsistencies and absurdities of state laws.

The episode features original AI-assisted music, including a Closet Disco Queen Musical Interlude, recurring segments like Did This Happen Stoned or Is It Kaka?, and the first F*** It List entry of the new year: letting go of things you simply cannot control.

Thoughtful, funny, and deeply human.

S4, E34: Unfiltered Midlife Moments & Cannabis Wisdom | You’re a Native New Yorker

Posted on by

In this festive, snarky, holly-jolly episode, Queenie & TT recap Queenie’s whirlwind NYC adventure with 11 family members—complete with wooden escalators at Macy’s, Midtown crowds, a surprisingly safe and clean Rockefeller Center, LED pedicabs dressed like disco elves, and a Greek diner miracle where eight people were seated together during the holidays.  

The conversation shifts to the cannabis world, where TT brings the latest on the politicians quietly sneaking a hemp-derived THC ban into a federal budget bill, the alliances forming in response, and the crucial December 19th Supreme Court decision that could reshape the industry. Meanwhile, Queenie and TT compare edibles, discuss their latest consumption, and marvel at how rarely NYC seemed to smell like weed this year.  

Then it’s everyone’s favorite segment:

Could They, Should They, Might They Have Been Stoned – or Is It Just Kaka?

From elevator mishaps to a 911 call gone spectacularly wrong, TT once again proves her stoner-detection skills are razor sharp.  

Finally, this week’s Fuck-It List entry lands with midlife authority:

🔥 Saying NO — without a three-minute apology, explanation, or performance of guilt.

Inspired by an uncomfortable-but-brilliant Andy Richter moment, Queenie & TT unpack the power of reclaiming time, boundaries, and dignity. No justifications. No softening. Just “No.” Period.  

They wrap with holiday decorating, stockings, traditions with grandkids, and the comforting glow of feeling at home for Christmas for the first time in years.

Funny, warm, chaotic, cannabis-infused, and unmistakably midlife.
