Kelee and Erin are BACK from spring break and they're easing in with absolutely zero chill. This week's episode is a get-to-know-us special, and let's just say, simple questions don't stay simple for long.It starts with a debate that somehow always comes up at our family parties: what actually counts as a toy? Is a ball a toy? (Genuinely, think about it.) From there, things spiral in the best way.The girls get into what they'd do if they woke up with $1 million tomorrow, and yes, it says a lot about them. They debate flat earth vs. ball earth, confess whether they've ever been in a fist fight, and answer the big ones: if you could go back in time for 24 hours where would you go, who would you be for a day if you could be anyone, and if there were zero consequences, what's one illegal thing you'd do?No filter, no wrong answers, and maybe a few things that should've stayed in the group chat.New episodes Thursday.

Our hearts are with those affected by the atrocities that are currently being committed by our government against innocent people. It is disgusting & immoral. We denounce violence & discrimination, always. We believe in equality & justice FOR ALL. Everyone involved in Stop The Internet Podcast votes for policies & lawmakers that work for peace, equality, civil rights, and justice for all people. In this episode, Kelee and Rebecca are chatting about girl code, starting with a discussion around an infamous court case and the verdict that had everyone talking. We want to know what you think. Do you agree with it? Tell us in the comments! From there, we get into our thoughts on girl code and when it matters most to support other women. We also share personal safety tips for navigating public spaces and looking out for each other. We wrap things up by talking about our queen, Taylor Swift, and breaking down some of her best and worst red carpet looks. It’s opinionated, chatty, and full of moments you’ll want to weigh in on.

Kelee and Rebecca are reading some of the best, most impactful advice people have received from their therapists, and of course, it leads us down a few deeper conversations. We talk about how easy it is to make excuses instead of doing the work to actually grow, why self-esteem acts as the lens through which we see the world, and how insecurity can show up as exclusion or defensiveness. We also reflect on how finding the right friends can help heal the wounds left by the wrong people. It’s a thoughtful, honest conversation that is inspiring us to make better decisions in the new year. 

Kelee settles in for a cozy solo chat all about her favorite “cheat codes” for everyday life. These are the small shifts, habits, and mindset tweaks that make the day run smoother and help you feel a little more productive without the pressure.

Kelee and Tricia sit down for a full wedding catch-up. Tricia gives a quick recap of her wedding day and walks through the mindset she had while planning. She talks about why she wanted a timeless look and what that meant in real life. We share our thoughts on wedding publications, why they aren’t worth stressing over, and the trends that can take you out of a classic style, like sneakers under the dress or fruit-filled centerpieces. It’s an honest and fun chat about choosing what feels right and letting go of the pressure to impress everyone.

Rebecca finally watched Get Out for the first time, and that sent us spiraling into a full-on movie discussion. From iconic performances and repeated plotlines to dream Hollywood scenarios, we’re breaking down all the things we love (and hate) about films. We talk about the idea of making it as writers or actors, favorite scenes that give us chills, and the ridiculous number of movies that are basically the same story. It’s a cozy, chaotic, movie-nerd conversation with two future Oscar winners, obviously.

This week, we’re diving into the internet’s confessions of toxic traits people are attracted to, from grumpy, brooding types to people who love a “fixer-upper.” We share our takes, debate the psychology behind it, and laugh at some wild submissions (don’t worry, we don’t relate to most of them). Along the way, we accidentally turn into self-proclaimed relationship counselors, with a few healthy reminders about what real attraction should look like. Equal parts hilarious and therapeutic,  it’s a fun one. Enjoy! xo

Sometimes you know what you need to say, but you have no idea how to word it without sounding harsh. In this episode, Kelee shares exactly how she’d handle those tricky friendship conversations we all struggle with. From asking your friend to text you first, to telling someone they’re being too clingy, to explaining why a friendship ended, we’re covering it all. We also dive into how to politely say “I already knew that,” how to handle not wanting to invite someone on a trip, and more real-life scenarios you might face in your friendships. Think of it as a little guidebook for what to say when you’re stuck on the words.Situations:How Can I Ask My Friend To Text Me First?How Can I Nicely Tell My Friend She’s Too Clingy?How Do I Politely Tell Someone “I Already Know That?”How Can I Nicely Tell Someone Why I Ended The Friendship?How Can I Say I Don’t Want To Invite A Certain Friend On A Trip?

In this solo episode, Kelee dives into the question so many of us have asked: why is it so hard to make friends as an adult? She shares her honest thoughts on what it really takes to form lifelong friendships, and why quality time and genuine effort matter so much. Kelee also touches on a tough but important truth: sometimes you don’t want to be friends with everyone, and that’s okay. From learning when to move on to being honest about connections that aren’t there, this episode is all about navigating friendships in adulthood with clarity and confidence.

Rebecca & Kelee are back with a mix of rants and reflections. We start with the nonsense of corporate jargon and how people overcomplicate simple things with confusing lingo. Then, a tangent turns into a life lesson: wearing socks with holes is the perfect analogy for why you shouldn’t wait for special occasions to use your best pieces. We wrap up by talking about our favorite movies and the big dreams we’re chasing. A little random, a little cozy, and just like chatting with friends.

This week, we’re playing a game of Do We Agree? by reacting to a Buzzfeed article where marriage counselors share the biggest “warning signs” to look out for in a partner. We debate everything from love bombing (“If someone tells you they love you after the 1st or 2nd date… run for the hills”) to the inability to handle rejection, emotional regulation issues, and scarce communication, like when someone texts you nonstop at first, then suddenly becomes “too busy” to reply. Along the way, we share our own real-life experiences and personal scenarios that either prove the point or totally contradict it. Play along and see which ones you agree with!

In this episode, we’re catching up and chatting about all the random lore that makes us, us.

We’re diving into spicy dating hot takes and debating them one by one. But first, a quick rant about how the internet always assumes the worst, and why that leads to way too many hate comments.Then, we get into the real stuff: ghosting, rejection, and the blurry lines of modern dating. Some of these takes had us nodding in agreement, others sparked serious debate… and we’re only scratching the surface.If you love honest conversations about dating, relationships, and all the messy stuff in between, this episode is for you.Rebecca Masel’s video on witness protection program: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8hpErGL/ Connect with us 🖤 https://www.instagram.com/stoptheinternetpodcast https://www.tiktok.com/@stoptheinternetpodcast https://www.instagram.com/keleeb/ https://www.tiktok.com/@keleeb Kelee's personal channel: https://www.youtube.com/@keleeb https://www.instagram.com/itsrebeccap/ Rebecca's Newsletter: http://Dontcopyme.substack.com https://www.instagram.com/erinbove/ https://www.instagram.com/triciawhalon/
