Wait, Sidebar is the podcast version of your group chat: chaotic, comforting, honest. Two San Francisco women who almost have it together turn drop-offs, quick voicemails, dog walks, and other passing moments into weekly unscripted conversations.BB is the planner in her notes app; DeeDee leads with vibes. They riff like sisters with boundaries—on friendships, frazzled mothers, marriage, sex, neighborhood drama, trends, and the rituals that keep us sane.Therapy-adjacent, with worse advice. New episodes weekly.

Autopay or Birkin Bag
Think success is a mansion or birkin bag? Think smaller — like autopay kicking in while you sip coffee and your brain stops hijacking your sentences. In this episode we unpack the odd little metrics that actually make life feel successful. We riff on childhood comparisons — the kid who owned a whole hill and our tiny paperbacks of envy — why our minds derail mid-sentence, and how to trade the scoreboard of “more” for the radical success of genuinely being happy for others. Wild idea, right?

Nah, that gives me the ICK.
Buckle up for a cheeky, short-and-sweet episode where we pin the icks on everyone else—mostly our husbands, occasionally the kids. If “moist” makes you twitch, then “nah” is BB’s kryptonite — cringe in glorious stereo. Sorry, not sorry. We serve a top-notch, highly unqualified recap of “the Coachella” (two middle-aged women, YouTube, zero credibility, maximum shade). Lots of giggles, as it should be.

We Made Them — Only We Can Say We're In Hell
Raw, funny, and unfiltered—this episode digs into the paradox of gentle parenting, lactation ball mishaps, and why only parents can say they’re in hell.

We Missed the Apps but Still Sipping the Tea
In this episode we dive into elite Dungeons & Dragons die-hards, dating-app chaos, first-date trainwrecks that somehow turn to love, debate crying-while-sex moments, and settle the tank-top question. Honest, messy, and unfiltered — we unpack what swipe culture teaches (and wrecks) while arguing that even with DMs and algorithms, the charm of meeting people the old-fashioned way — face-to-face, awkwardness and all — is worth saving.

Chafing Dishes & Walking Pads
Dee Dee hasn’t set foot in an office in over a decade, but she’s fascinated by the modern workplace - the biz nasty as she calls it. In this episode BB unpacks the rituals and unwritten rules shaping today’s worklife — from spa water, walking pads, standing desks, and the endless services provided. For every time we say "chafing," another new hire logs on in pajamas.

The Trust Hole [Updated]
Tumble down the rabbit hole of trust with us. We unpack the small and strange ways we rely on another: letting strangers sculpt your face, refusing to let your husband pack your suitcase, trusting a yellow cab with your last destination and the mind‑fuck of elite circles where trust becomes a currency and the price is devastating. Expect unfiltered conversations that swing from laugh‑out‑loud to oddly philosophical, and unapologetically weird.

Forever Cringe
In the surprisingly long episode, we dive into the radical idea that being cringe is actually freeing - liberating, even. Dee Dee admits to having always been cringe, while BB accepts that being cringe forever is simply the path forward. We talk about how identifies shift at different milestones in life and no matter what to hold on to yourself. Please focus on the content, not the sound quality - we're clearly still figuring out audio. Do you go to school for that? Cringe lives here. You're Welcome.

Dolphins Swim with Dolphins
We really sink into the awkwardness: From group-chat chaos to building real-life community, random dolphin tangents, and everything in between. Expect uncomfortable laughs, honest conversation, and zero polish — but stick with us; we promise we’ll get better.

Friends Who Curse
Friendships change and so do we. In our first episode, we get into friendship prime time: the era where you stop forcing connections and start building your tribe...one F bomb at a time.
