  • Chit Chat 200 Tarot Cards, Gala Chaos & Grocery Store Drama
    May 1 2026

    Episode 200 is here, and Jeff and Sam show up like two people who absolutely should not have a platform… yet somehow do.

    Jeff kicks things off by surviving another week of bartending, knee pain, and the existential crisis that comes from being scheduled for a double at his fun part‑time job. A surprise rainstorm frees him from manual labor and launches him straight into a six‑person “party” (read: wine‑drunk hangout) where a psychic medium proceeds to drag everyone’s souls across the carpet. Jeff’s reading? Shockingly accurate, mildly unhinged, and apparently sponsored by his dead relatives. Love that for him.

    Meanwhile, Sam gets yanked into the Kevin Guest House gala with about 12 minutes’ notice and somehow ends up at the most aggressively catered event in Buffalo history. We’re talking chicken finger sliders, mashed potato bars, gelato, Italian sandwiches, pizza logs — basically a Golden Corral fever dream but make it charity. She bids on a color analysis, loses, and immediately spirals into a rant about why it costs $450 to be told you’re a “soft autumn.”

    Together, they unpack psychic predictions, family ghosts, work chaos, Aldi jump scares, and the ongoing saga of Sam’s upcoming DC trip where she fully intends to interrogate her VP over cocktails like she’s hosting Watch What Happens Live.

    It’s messy. It’s dramatic. It’s deeply unserious.
    Welcome to Chit Chat 200 — the delusion is celebratory.

  • Chit Chat 199: Messy Margaret Stole My Soul
    Apr 24 2026

    This week’s episode is pure chaos in the best way: Toronto concerts, creepy drag queens, queer emo night, $27 Five Guys meals, and a funeral‑party bar rush all collide before we even get to the new‑job meltdown. Jeff battles chatty coworkers, Outlook disasters, and a hockey‑obsessed stranger, while Sam survives a disastrous date night, a 3 AM airport run, and the worst musical she’s ever seen. Add in Finger Lakes drama‑free bliss, book rants, Bravo betrayals, and Real Housewives of Rhode Island insanity, and you’ve got a full‑throttle catch‑up you won’t want to miss.

    Soft life dreams, hard life realities, and unhinged storytelling — welcome to Chit Chat 199.

  • Chit Chat 198: The Miles Mix‑Up & Other Mental Spirals
    Apr 17 2026

    Sam and Jeff are back with a week full of unhinged chaos. Sam realizes she’s been texting the wrong “Miles” for two months, Jeff has a full‑body bad high at movie night, and both spiral into “do we have dementia?” territory.

    We’ve got golf disasters, meat raffle victories, Dateline heartbreak, a surprise home‑cooked dinner after a massive text misunderstanding, and a bachelor‑party koozie featuring “Samantha Roxy” found next to the bed (“VIP adult entertainer… call me when you need a good time” ). It’s messy, it’s relatable, it’s Chit Chat.

  • Chit Chat 197 2000s Worship Nostalgia and Easter Reconciliation
    Apr 10 2026

    Rarely does one episode pack in a hotel epiphany, a twerking contest, and a Summer House betrayal all in the same breath. This week's conversation covers a genuinely chaotic stretch of life, and it's hard to look away from any of it.

    The episode opens with a deep dive into 2000s worship music, including a memorable discovery of "He Will Raise You Up on Eagle's Wings" during a hotel stay in Cleveland. From there, things get personal fast. Cameron keeps coming home late on Fridays without warning

    This week's episode also included a trip to Hamilton, Canada for a Cardi B concert with Miles, a cooking class where tiramisu was made with Chef Camille, and Easter dinner featuring prosciutto-spinach-provolone stuffed chicken. The week was full, genuinely full.

    Tune in for the whole story.

  • Chit Chat 196 Coffee at Home and Strip Club Athletics: A Week of Buffalo Adventures
    Apr 3 2026

    Rarely does a single conversation cover airport runs at 3 a.m., stomach bugs, Easter Markets, and a spontaneous strip club visit, but here we are. This episode is a genuine slice of life, messy and entertaining in equal measure.

    Honestly, the week described here is a lot. Sam drove Cameron to the airport before dawn, then spent hours scrubbing down the bathroom after a stomach bug. Meanwhile, Jeff was recovering from a suspicious roast beef sandwich at Wagner's in Lockport that caused some serious digestive regret. Between a hockey game with a $55 all-you-can-eat buffet, a birthday ice cream cake debate (double chunk espresso versus vanilla, the real conflict), and a surprisingly impressive night out at a strip club, there is genuinely something for everyone here.

    What does it say about us when the most memorable part of a week involves Trader Joe's dumplings and RuPaul's Drag Race Season 11?

    (Nina West gets a well-deserved shoutout, by the way.) The conversation also touches on "Inside the Manosphere," a documentary the speakers strongly recommend for exposing how male influencers manufacture outrage for profit.

    If you want a warm, funny, and completely unfiltered look at real friendship and everyday life, press play.

  • Chit Chat 195 New Headsets and New Management: Jeff's Big Career Move
    Mar 27 2026

    After a two-week hiatus, Sam and Jeff are back with some big news that's about to shake things up. Jeff just accepted a management position in banking starting April 20th, his first time leading a team after nearly nine years with his company. (The nerves are real when it comes to those one-on-ones and performance reviews.)

    Between scheduling conflicts and social exhaustion, these two have been living their best chaotic lives. From a disappointing 3 hour bingo event that only featured four actual games, to the darkly comedic musical "Kimberly Akimbo" about a teenager with a rare aging disease, their entertainment choices ran the gamut. The show earned five Tony Awards, though their companion found it confusing while Sam loved every minute.

    What happens when you attend a Buffalo fundraiser and your $10 donation gets publicly displayed next to much larger contributions? The Great Buffalo Debate brought spirited arguments about whether sponge candy or chicken wings represent peak Buffalo innovation. Meanwhile, their weekend spiraled into indulgence territory with full Philly cheesesteaks, regrettable tailgate beers, and ice cream that nobody could finish.

    Tune in to hear about their media binges, including thoughts on Netflix's age-guessing show and the controversy surrounding a canceled Bachelor season.

  • Chit Chat 194 Rude Movie Theaters, Hockey Games, and Bakery Mishaps
    Mar 13 2026

    What happens when you order two half-sheet cakes without knowing their actual size? You'll end up sending guests home with massive amounts of leftovers (which is exactly what happened at this birthday celebration).

    This week's conversation covers everything from questionable movie theater encounters to the most exciting 8-7 hockey game featuring multiple fights and power play goals. The Sabres' impressive turnaround under returning coach Lindy Ruff gets discussed, along with deep cleaning discoveries like smudged walls and dusty cabinet floors that somehow go unnoticed for months. There's also the bizarre turkey pot pie incident at West End Inn in Hamburg, imagine ordering pot pie and receiving spicy soup with pita bread instead. The kind waitress agreed it looked disgusting and offered to remove it from the menu entirely.

    The speakers also share their weekend activities, including a haul from Palette Bros in Hamburg where everything costs just five dollars on special days, watching Paradise with Shailene Woodley, and dealing with persistent dog accidents requiring enzymatic carpet treatment. They touch on reading The Testaments by Margaret Atwood, starting a new podcast called The Great Vine, and watching Heart Stoppers, a British series about LGBTQ+ youth that hits them emotionally.

    Tune in for all the entertaining details and relatable weekend chaos.

  • Chit Chat 193 Seattle Chaos: Power Outages, Oversized Luggage, and Ferry Rides
    Mar 6 2026

    Ever wondered what happens when gelato meets a Ferris wheel? Sam and Jeff are back after their Seattle adventure, and honestly, this trip had everything. They nearly missed their 5:30 flight thanks to an airport power outage and an overly chatty 3 a.m. Uber driver who couldn't stop talking about San Francisco rent prices. (Trust me, not the conversation you want at that hour.)

    In Seattle, they hit Pike Place Market for Beecher's mac and cheese and Greek gelato with exotic flavors, toured Lumen Field home of the Seattle Seahawks, and explored the Pop Culture Museum's impressive collections. The Chihuly Gardens featured stunning glass sculptures, and the Space Needle shot them up in just thirty-eight seconds. Their ferry ride to Bainbridge Island proved delightful and relaxing with beautiful views.

    But let's talk about that Ferris wheel incident—one speaker's indulgent food choices created an increasingly uncomfortable situation over multiple rotations that required an urgent exit. They also caught a Disney Villains brunch at a queer bar, enjoyed espresso martinis throughout the day, and dealt with a birthday party host who refused to share cake.

    The chaos, the food, the mishaps—it's all here. Listen to find out which moment almost derailed the entire trip.
