Dummies Podcast: Recent Episodes
Carly Friedman & Miranda Szczesny
Carly & Miranda are two Philly girls who recently took a leap and quit their corporate 9-5 jobs. They are now trying to navigate the world of “doing it the unconventional way” and talk about all the struggles, highs, and lows that come with it. They started this podcast with NO IDEA of what they were doing, so come along for the wild ride as these two dummies try to find their places being the boss women that they are.
PHILLY WATER IS CONTAMINATED!....or so we thought. This week the Dummies are discussing how a chemical spill is affecting Philadelphians and our clean (or not so clean) drinking water. After a Sunday text sent the whole city into a frenzy, bottled water became scarce and Panda had to drive all the way to York for some, while Carl dropped $50 on 12 bottles of Essentia. They should basically sponser her at this point lol. At the time of this posting, the water situation has died down and we are all good here so no need to worry! We also talk about the squirrel stuck in Panda's wall (rip I think) and our other regular shenanigans. Thanks for tuning in :)

THE DUMMIES ARE BACK! After a quick hiatus because Panda had the vid.... we are back discussing everything from religion to nasty Philly subway trains and more. Here's a tip: busses > trains in Philly and don't push your views (whether they're religious or literally anything else!!) on anybody. It will get you far in life, and that advice comes straight from two experts at everything ;)))) Thanks for coming back to hear us! BTW... should we make merch????

What is de-influencing? The Dummies dive into this topic (& why it's ironic) and also journey on a lengthy discussion about nutrition! DON'T WORRY, we are not pretending to be nutritionists or experts, but that will not stop us from giving our 2 cents. We also ponder why some videos on the internet feel the need to be dragged out and click bait you into watching a 3 minute clip that doesn't even show you the final product?!! We know you know what we're talking about. Thanks for listening, keep on glistening ;)

According to the internet, we are in the META CRINGE ERA, but we've been in the cringe era (in general) since the early 2000s.... WHO KNEW??? Certainly not the Dummies. We are back with a new episode where we discuss this meta cringe era, throw out some parenting tips and have a nice discussion on Bravo shows (our favorite). @Bravo please adopt us.

This week we also get to meet Carly's friend Karen!

This episode was recorded by the Dummies some time ago to be used precisely in this situation: when we need a filler episode. We touch on many topics (as always) including bad Lifetime movies, that one time we lived in the same house at different times, metaverse Gucci bags, opposing political views, and our thoughts on having a million kids. Thanks for listening and enjoy!

On this week’s episode, the dummies try to wrap their heads around the interesting concept of VABBING. If you don’t know what that is, google it. We'd prefer to not have to write out what it is in this caption. ORRR you can just listen to the episode and hear Carly and Panda's vulgar interpretation of it. We also talk about how Carly's intuition came in clutch & saved her from almost getting scammed on the internet. The dummies advice? Don't click on those sketchy emails or ads people! Just don’t do it. OUR SOCIALS: Carly’s IG: caarrose Carly’s Fitness IG: fitbyfried Carly’s TikTok: Sillygoofygorl69

Did you know you can air fry eggs for the “perfect” hard boiled egg according to Carly? Me neither. It's week #2 for the Dummies and we're still trying to figure out the format of this show. If you listened to episode 1 (pls do if you haven't), we talked about a bunch of different things we wanted to do with the show. By week 2 that has all gone out the window! This week's episode features an array of topics: some lighter than others. We touch on unlocking your mind, the vicious cycle of social media, money & greed ruling world, and the reality of recording at home. ALSO planning Panda's birthday celebrations! You don't want to miss it. Thanks for listening!
