Talia and Alexis cover all your q’s and explain why it’s time to say farewell (don’t worry, they’re still best friends IRL), before giving their weekly life update, one last time. Then a listener voicemail about pushing away the need for external validation. We’ve all felt insecure, and Talia and Alexis share their personal experiences on that ~self love journey~. Lastly, some final rounds of Roast It or Toast It: Elon Musk bought Twitter (literally why) and Bad Vibes itself (they rate their podcast experience). What can you expect from the end? Some tears and a lot of ily’s.

Tuning in live from sunny Los Angeles, Talia and Alexis start this week’s ep with a debrief of life on the west coast. Is LA really a shitty heaven and NYC a fun hell? They weigh the pros and cons. Then onto the Vibe Check: Coachella. Talia tapped out of the famed festival this year, but Alexis was there for the full experience—and hated it. Alexis shares what it’s actually like being there (yes, she gives all the deets about Revolve Fest, AKA the new Fyre Festival), and she and Talia get into how Coachella’s become pretty cheugy. Then onto a voicemail about not liking your brother’s GF—don’t worry, Talia and Alexis help problem-solve. They wrap up with a Roast It or Toast It about the *totally fake* Rihanna and A$AP cheating rumor. Can’t pregnant celebs just get a break?

She’s back (covid, that is). Today’s ep takes place at home, since Alexis is unfortunately positive. Talia, however, is positively negative, and has actually never had the ‘rona (as far as she knows). Alexis hopes she’ll get over the virus just in time for Coachella, which sparks a convo about the famed festival (including some of Talia’s *wild* mems). Then onto this week’s Vibe Check, all about family holidays. The consensus? It’s complicated—Alexis and Talia break it down. They wrap up with a quick chat about all things celeb news: Britney Spears’ pregnancy (they literally find out mid show), Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz’s wedding, and J.Lo and Ben Affleck’s *latest* engagement. Stay tuned for next week’s pod, which will be live from sunny CA.

The day was March 30, two years ago, when Talia had her first heartbreak (no, they weren’t dating—tune in for the tea). This sparks a convo between Talia and Alexis all about labels—the good, the bad, and the ones that make you feel insignificant (hate that). Alexis shares the story of an open relationship she had and the two of them wrap up the discussion with some ~tactical advice~. Then onto listener voicemails: they get into the tea vs coffee debate (hot take: you need the caffeine) and junior prom (to go or not to go, that’s the q). The show comes to a close with Roast It or Toast It. On the agenda: that v exclusive dating app called Raya (Talia just got back on). Their hot take advice? The best dating app is to go outside and meet someone—it works.

Talia starts this week’s ep by singing, and we find out that—fun fact—Alexis hates hearing people she knows sing (sry Talia). They then dive into life updates including Serena F*cking Kerrigan’s bday parties (yes, plural), before tackling the hottest topic RN—the Oscars. They share some hot takes about the slap heard ’round the world, AKA Will Smith and Chris Rock’s ~altercation~, but first a recap of the red carpet and the movies. Who let Kristen Stewart wear shorts? And WTF was Licorice Pizza’s plot? The ep wraps up with a Bad Vibes Hotline voicemail all about a relationship dry spell (and a dry hand job—yikes). They dish out some wisdom, some personal anecdotes, and ofc address gender standards (much to discuss).

Today’s update is all about apartments. Talia found a new one (yay, but will her doorman judge her?), and Alexis relates—her doorman doesn’t think she’s an influencer getting PR packages, he thinks she has a shopping addiction. Maybe it’s both? Then onto the vibes. This week’s Vibe Check is all about Bella Hadid admitting she got a nose job and the positive sides of plastic surgery (talk about a confidence boost). Next they tune in to some Bad Vibes Hotline listener voicemails and discuss all kinds of dates & daters. From too much tongue in a makeout to getting catfished (the worst), Talia and Alexis share some personal experiences and dish out handy advice (you’ll def want to hear about Talia’s kissing “triangle method”). They wrap up with some good ’ole Roast It or Toast It: March Madness and—the most dramatic—Spring Break.

Today’s ep begins with…a diagnosis? Talia shares some medical qualms and Alexis does her best to solve them, before they dive into life updates (astrology and R-rated date stories are in store). Then onto what you came for: the Vibe Check, all about making (and breaking) friends in the post-grad world—tune in for the friend-finding tips. Continuing on the advice-giving train, they listen to this week’s Bad Vibes voicemail all about marriage in your early 20s (spoiler: don’t do it). They wrap up with a few rounds of Roast It or Toast It, including a deep dive of the Bravo *thief* in our midst. Yup, someone v popular stole this segment for their own show. You’re gonna want to hear this tea.

Alexis is back from sunny LA, aka Talia’s hometown (no, we can’t believe she’s from there either). Fun fact: Talia’s LA school gave kids days off to go to Coachella—like what?! Speaking of good ole academics, onto this week’s Vibe Check: college. Talia & Alexis listen in to a hotline voicemail, where the most relatable topic is raised—big schools vs small schools. Unpopular opinion: a big school can always feel small, but a small school won’t feel big. Now for the main act: the content creator queen, pop culture aficionado, Tefi (@hellotefi on IG & TikTok). Tefi joins Talia & Alexis in the studio and gets into all things social media & her ongoing content journey, before they all play some rounds of Roast It or Toast It. On today’s roster: astrology (Tefi can’t imagine her life w/o it), award shows (hot take: they’re making a comeback), and ghosting (tbh it’s better to lie than be silent). To end this week’s ep, Tefi shares a new phrase we’re all obsessed with: LYLAS (love you like a sister).

Bad vibes are very much in the air today. Alexis is swamped with work and doesn’t have time for a mani before heading to LA (a real travesty tbh) and Talia got slammed with a huge G & E bill (adulting is harder than it looks). Speaking of things that are f–ing annoying, this week’s Vibe Check addresses parasocial relationships: people who think they know you just because they follow you on social media. It’s a little weird, right? Then onto the Bad Vibes Hotline, where Alexis & Talia listen to your voicemails and discuss the important q’s in dating—Should you be wary of a large age gap? Socks during sex—hot or not? They then get into even more controversial topics (yes, there are more) with the crowd fav, Roast It or Toast It. On today’s *heated* agenda: having your guy take pics of you on vaca (what else is he there for tho); adults making TikToks to Disney sounds (it’s giving the ick); the constant Euphoria discourse (hot take—it’s just poorly written trauma dumping). Agree? Disagree? Pls let us know your thoughts in a *5 star* review.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Before Alexis & Talia dive into the bad vibes, Alexis shares her tropical vaca plans for next week (where the vibes will be exceptionally good). Relaxation vacation, anyone? Talia’s update may not be tropical, but it’s still v hot—yup, she was front row at fashion week (but no, she doesn’t know why she was invited). Being able to tag NYFW on IG, though? A true flex. Then onto a quick chat about why Talia can’t get verified on TikTok (someone get this girl a blue check already) before jumping into this week’s Vibe Check. Ofc, first up is the chaos called Kanye West. Talia & Alexis admit that while yes, the absurdity is entertaining, it’s also pretty f-ing sad (especially for the kids). They also pose the q we’ve all wondered—did Kim make Kanye or did Kanye make Kim? Next, they listen to the very first hotline voicemail (exciting!) asking about the age-old question (ok fine, the q from last week) of whether or not you should buy lingerie for a hookup. Then more on controversial q’s, for Roast It or Toast It they debate whether or not you should split the bill on a date (spoiler: as long as there’s a wage gap the correct answer is no). Following is a huge ‘toast’: blind items (listen for the definition & all the tea). And then the ep comes to a close with a much contested topic—group chats (they’re just not it). For the ladies who added Talia & Alexis to a massive group chat though—if you’re listening, pls don’t kick them out.
Hot tip: save the Bad Vibes Hotline # 212-287-5244 as your ex’s contact, so when you’re tempted to call them you can call Alexis & Talia instead (brilliant, we know).

Your fav TikTok *stars* Ms. Talia Lichtstein and Alexis Barber present to you the first of many sh*t talk sessions. Or, as we like to call it, the Bad Vibes Podcast. They get into all the good stuff—who they are, how they know each other—but more importantly, they get into all the bad stuff too. For this week’s Vibe Check, Alexis & Talia talk about V Day and tell us what they think of the holiday (‘yay’ or ‘nay,’ and if you answer with ‘nay’ are you just being misogynistic?). Then they read some Absurd DMs from their own inboxes, including from all the angry boys riled up at Talia over Tom Brady, and Alexis shares the time TLC *rudely* reached out to her. Drama, drama, drama! Then on to a heated game of Roast It or Toast It (roast=not it, toast=clink, clink b*tch, we love). On today’s contested agenda: Posting a man on social media—a vibe or nah? Getting lingerie as a gift—is there only one OK way to do it? And Axel Webber’s tiny apartment—can you stop cosplaying being poor already? (Talia spills some real tea with this one and trust us, you’re gonna want to tune in.)
So if you haven’t picked up on this already, no one and nothing on the internet is safe. Got something to say about it? Then actually pls do let us know. The hotline is: 212-287-5244.
