Episodes

  1. Air to Breathe

    Today we talk about the mental health crisis resulting from lack of food security, lack of clean water, air, housing, medical care, or usable pizza delivery apps. With our friend Garion.

  2. Through the Blue Door

    Walk out of the day and through the Blue Door. You will be safe. You may even dream.

  3. The Queen and I

    Buttercup the cat has completely stolen our hearts and is completely indifferent to how much money we have spent on litter boxes and the bed she won't use.

  4. Crazy Cat Time

    Introducing Buttercup the cat, the latest in C-PAP technology, and Spencer. Also, I kvetch about meanies on social media and my deteriorating body.

  5. Cursing the Gods because it's medically necessary

    Have you ever gone to an expert for one thing only to discover that something much worse was happening? And why I'm getting a cat. Communicate with us at: [email protected]

  6. Girls Just Want to Have Fun

    Can we, for just one weekend, pretend we're not disabled and head out of town? Find out as we sniffle through our latest episode. And be glad we did not get started on the issue of swelling. Want to communicate with us? Email: [email protected]

  7. Patient #28

    Harrowing. Cliff hanger. The lesbians are left abandoned and howling in the wilderness as the medical professionals check off their boxes and try to squeeze in another patient.

  8. Knee Deep and Waiting for Rescue

    We talk about the paperwork we've been filling out for the Dept. Of Workforce Services, which determines what programs (such as medical insurance) we qualify for and for Social Security, which determines whether or not we are disabled and qualify for related programs (such as income).

  9. Wild, wild sex, or, how to get down and get funky

    We bring you up to date with our lives and then talk about disabled sex: how to get down and get funky when you are facing multiple challenges. If you want to communicate with us, send us an email at [email protected]

  10. Pets: should you get a plant instead

    The conventional wisdom is that pets are good for you. They make you happy. They help you live longer. In this episode, we present a few things to consider before getting a pet (like, maybe a pet is not the best idea for you).

  11. Being Fat and Eating Food

    We start with an update on how we've been and then, we tell you the TRUTH about being fat and eating food. Spoiler alert: being fat does not necessarily mean that one is unhealthy and eating right has nothing to do with losing weight.

  12. Insomnia: what it is and what you can do about it.

    In this episode, we talk about the causes and types of insomnia and share our first hand experiences with a wide variety of sleep hygiene tools. If you're tired of being tired, maybe we can help. Maybe. We'll give it a shot.

  13. Welcome to Disabled Shit with Tara and Julianne, long-time disabled lesbians

    This week we meander over not being validated as humans, the incredible hardship of showering, and the mountains of paperwork involved with being disabled.
