Queenie and TT record in the morning like the agile legends they are… despite a little tech lag. They recap a quiet Stink-O-Rama roller skating day, celebrate Chef Son’s homemade feast, and spiral (comedically) into the brutal truth of aging, hormones, and the “we’re shriveling into dust balls” era. They revisit Tanya’s menopause/HRT wisdom, debate psychedelics and microdosing, and share what they’re consuming. TT covers a dating poll suggesting cannabis use is more “green flag” than “red flag,” then the ladies play “Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda—Was it Cannabis or Caca?” Finally, the Fuck-It List targets the weird guilt around watching TV during the day—because retirement means you can watch Netflix at 2pm if you damn well please.

S4, E38: Why Don’t You Try, Try
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, E35: The Clock Keeps Turning
In this episode, Queenie & TT settle in from the cold and let the conversation wander where midlife brains naturally go: time, exhaustion, politics, cannabis confusion, words we love (and loathe), and finally… letting shit go.
They talk about winter resentment, being trapped indoors, and the creeping sense that everything feels heavier lately — especially as the political landscape grows more chaotic, cruel, and intentionally overwhelming. From the constant barrage of disturbing headlines to the feeling that the system is designed to exhaust and numb us, Queenie & TT name what so many people are quietly feeling: this isn’t just politics — it’s a human gut punch.
On the cannabis front, TT tries to make sense of wildly conflicting news coming out of Washington — hemp bans, rescheduling rumors, Supreme Court decisions, harsher prosecutions in non-legal states, and the desperate need for actual research instead of fear-based nonsense. Meanwhile, both hosts share what they’ve consumed, because consistency matters.
Things lighten up with word nerdery, pronunciation aversions, favorite mouth-feel words (intergalactic makes a return), and another round of “Did This Really Happen, Or Is It Just Kaka?” featuring sheep who got into medical cannabis, alleged time travel via military time, and some truly impressive mental gymnastics.
The episode lands exactly where midlife wisdom lives:
This week’s Fuck-It List entry — Christmas cards… and apologizing for not doing everything.
No more guilt. No more over-explaining. No one is harmed if a card doesn’t arrive. The clock keeps turning, expectations need adjusting, and choosing peace is not a moral failure.
Warm, funny, rambling in the best way, and quietly profound — this is midlife in real time.
