It’s Stassi’s birthday episode! She’s joined by her childhood bestie Alex Stafford—who’s been around since the original “Dracarys” days, long before Blake Lively ruined it—for their annual closet cleanout tradition. Over martinis and Aperol spritzes, they catch up on Blake’s cringe Game of Thrones text, texting habits that trigger anxiety, and accidentally land on a new show intro. Stassi reflects on her shedding season, from big life changes to her massive closet purge, while Alex shares why she’s the ultimate organizing genius. They swap stories from their school days, relive their long-running cleanout ritual, and break down simple, real-life tips for organizing your space and letting go.

Stassi is joined by LadyGang’s Jac Vanek to talk all things LadyWorld—the first-ever podcast festival happening this September 26-28, 2025 in Miramar Beach, Florida. Jac shares how it all started with a glamping idea and turned into a full-blown interactive weekend with all the famous podcast girlies. They also bond over preferring day-drinking to being out late, they rank their favorite seasons (spoiler: they have completely opposite rankings), and they reminisce about their good ol high school days. Plus, they unpack the chaos of social media—why filters are still cringe, how TikTok makes everyone look suspiciously gorgeous, and what the term “b*tch eating crackers” has to do with Blake Lively. It's millennial nostalgia, influencer burnout, and Aperol spritz vibes all in one.

Stassi opens up about how much it meant to have Bestie Taylor Strecker at her SI Miami moment—but the convo quickly turns into a hilarious (and painfully relatable) rant about being “favor allergic.” From DM disasters to one-time-only friendship asks, they break down the unspoken rules of adult boundaries. Taylor watched the new season of And Just Like That... without Stassi. Cue the drama, the Carrie Bradshaw analysis, and a firm decision to finally stop watching. Plus: why Blake Lively’s Instagram is so erratic, how Taylor Swift might be behind the quiet unfollow, and the social media behavior that’s giving Queen Bee narcissist energy.
