Ep. 4.2 | Our 78 Roommates | Lex's Dateline Near-miss and Rae's Miracle Roommate Assignment

from The Pretty Obsessed Podcast · host Lex and Rae

Roommate horror stories, college chaos, and... a missing machete?! This week on the Pretty Obsessed Podcast (aka the POP), Lex & Rae are diving deep into roommate stories, college stories, and the kind of unhinged moments that make you question everything.Rae confesses she may have been someone’s worst roommate ever—and jokes that the roommate may have accidentally taken it out on Lex just because they looked “similar.” Is it a legit theory? Maybe. Do they have proof? Absolutely not. But when you're two brown girls at a predominantly white university and people can’t even tell you apart (despite not even being the same race), anything feels possible.Then Lex shares a truly wild story about living with a grandfather-aged roommate who turned out to be a closeted alcoholic with hallucinations—which led to EMTs, fire trucks, an impromptu CPR moment, and a literal missing machete. She was one Dateline twist away from being a headline.Finally, the duo wraps up with their Pretty Obsessed Picks of the Week—both chosen, unfortunately, because of their mutual fear of men. Yay!If you're into roommate drama, college survival tips, true crime-adjacent chaos, and pop culture obsessions, this episode is for you.
