Full Blown Panic: Recent Episodes

None

Formerly the Hot Chicken Podcast, Full Blown Podcast is still based in Chicago. Join your host, Rachel Lee as she discusses her own panic and anxiety struggle along with the seemingly mundane. Think Virginia Woolf meets Seinfeld meets ASMR meets togetherness. Listen on the train, while you’re cleaning, going to bed - whenever, wherever.

Hey. Yeah, it's been a minute, but I'm still around. Life has been hectic - looked for a job, got a job, work a lot, have a girlfriend, a pup & cat, bills - I'm adulting hard, but making it through everyday. I missed this and the Hot Chicken fam. This episode is some raw audio of a regular day with my gf and I. Some will love and some will turn off - that's chill. Anyway, buy a cool mechanical pencil that lets people think you're smarter than you are - come hang.

Heyyyy. What can I say? It's been a while and I know it - I went dark, bro. Listen, does your house have a peephole? Mine doesn't and it really should. Are you smarter than a 5th grader? Probably not, but you probably know how to shoot a gun better than them. If you also make mimosas and watch "Trisha's Southern Kitchen" followed by "Barefoot Contessa," we could maybe be friends, but only if you also feel bad when you eat too many chicken wings. Pull up a chair, it's time for a little Hot Chicken.

What if mermaid was on the menu? Would you want the crispy tts? What about something butterflied? Have you legit done a "shocker"? Look, Shania, you have to rethink what's impressive. Let's chat the last couple weeks - mental health, my BFF (send her love), what it's like to not give a fck anymore and much more. You love who you love and that's that. Also, want some bean soup with those chin hairs? Let's do it. Yo.

I'm back! After some much needed relaxation time, we get right into it. We do our usual mental health update and just the general catch-up. I've been doing some soul searching, gettin' laid, eating health (ish), and doing a prison work out. I recommend you write your own obituary - it's an interesting exercise because if you let someone else write yours, your spirit might find out how many people hate you. Are you learning Swahili? I'm trying to. Lastly, if you ever watched 'True Life'..."I WANT A BURGER!" know what I"m sayin'? Strap in or put one on, grab your favorite beverage and come hang.

Hey. Hi. What's up? Yooo and hello! Thanks for join your host, Rachel Lee for another episode of Hot Chicken. We talk about the video I watched of a tiger mauling a guy - why did I do that? Needless to say, it affected me. As always a mental health update and sudden surges of anxiety and depression. A new listener email from a young 20-something who claims his tts probably aren't as big as mine. I got those Nat Geo, tts, know what I'm sayin'? Grab a plate of chicken or a cigar, whatever. Come hang!

Welcome back! I took a little mental health break - did some self-exploration, made some Powerpoints, listened to some jams, had some dreams and wondering what the world of erotica might hold for your anxious host, Rachel Lee. We read an email from a woman with an anxiety-ridden girlfriend and I get heated about dumb people who are super insensitive when it comes to mental health. As usual, it's always a fun hang out. Come join.

We are baaaack! Hi, guys! Sorry, I was MIA. I took a little mental health break. This week we chat about the poor guy who's washing machine broke, what it feels like to tell your parents you're moving in with a woman (if you're also a woman), and more importantly, how to eat a watermelon and what its like for Sonic the Hedgehog to have orgasms. Come hang.

Hey! How are you? I'm chill - had a solid three day weekend. If you need that day off, take it. We do some chatting and more importantly, we do some Sunday confessionals like good Christians. Do you wonder how dudes ride bikes? Did you ever pretend to be a raptor or maybe do you wonder what type of serial killer you'd be? I have. Come hang out, it's Sunday.

Hey there! Another episode of The Hot Chicken Podcast is out! Still getting over this F**king cold, but it's all good. It's Sunday - does that depress you like it does me? Let's chat. What are your 'work week worries'? Disney music is like drugs and having no pubes isn't that cool. While you listen, I'm gonna figure out what's for dinner. Thank you for all your support! Love you guys.

If you couldn't guess - I'm sick...AF. Delirious even and maybe even...stupid? Yerd or Yerk? Or Both? What do they mean? Find out. How are things with you? I'm chill myself. Anxiety is down, coughing like a b*tch is up. Whatever, it's all good. Virginia Woolf is cool and so is being nice. Also - get your Hot Chicken stickers! They are in! DM on Instagram (@hotchickenpodcast) or email "hotchickenpod@gmail.com" Who doesn't love free stuff? And it's my way of saying "thank you for listening." You guys are awesome. Hope you're well.

Love you guys!

Yoooo. What's up? It's been a minute - that's my bad. This week on Hot Chicken, we talk about what's been keeping me so busy, can you say, "girlfriend"? It's not an excuse, but it's the truth. Who wouldn't wanna be a house wife and no, I'm not down with Phyllis Schlafly - I just don't wanna do sh*t and make dinner instead. What's wrong with that? Anxiety is at an all time low, so that's my jam, it's rad, it's real cool - ya know? Have you ever been worried your Mom might find something she shouldn't see? aka - strap-ons. Luckily, it didn't happen this time. Come hang out - it's that time again.

Jane Fonda or Meryl Streep? Have you had an Uber driver and then had the same guy two years later? Did it get weird? Yeah. Of course it did. How's your anxiety? Flint is just being Flint. We discuss turn-ons with a silly segment I put together and much more. Chicks who like noodles are cool. Come hang, it's Hot Chicken time.

Remember that show "Baggage"? Look, we all have it, but "what are you willing to deal with" is the bigger question! What's the Okinawa Program? Do you think accountants are hot? Me too. We talk "f*ck that" and we talk "Hell yeahaz." Also an email! Accompanied by not 4.0 advice. Come hang.

We're back! Sorry man, it's been and minute and I know it. Anyway, we're back and anxiety didn't beat me today. This week on The Hot Chicken Podcast we have a friend of mine on the show - Sarah of Rogue Yoga here in Chicago. We have a few laughs about "figuring it all out," ya know, like adult stuff... and dogs and feelings. The bigger question is - do you think crystals are real? We have a good time, come join.

I was so inspired by an email today that I turned my negative BS attitude around! YOU get a bonus AND YOU get a bonus AND YOU get a bonus! This bonus episode goes out to everyone tonight! Don't worry $5+ Patreon subscribers, you'll get yours and you know we get a little more rowdy on there. I wasn't feel so rad today, let's talk. Are you making dinner? Maybe not, but I am. And maybe there are even more bonuses that will include...ya know...like X-rated material. Maybe. Like stuff, ya know?

YOOOOO. Do you like a lot of salt with your margarita? Not if you have a cut, which is most people. Sometimes your table is too small and your feel like a fat loser and then other times, you have to drip a little to get to that toilet paper. Hey, it happens to everyone. Ya know what else happens? Dates. I went on one and we talk about it. Should I not have? Maybe. But, who gives a f**k. It's that time again...come hang with me.

Thank you to everyone who emailed me last week/this week about their anxiety! Super rad stuff! Then I thought, why don't we talk about it some more? We talk how awesome self-care is and how it helps. Facials? Massages? Ya. Intrusive thoughts? Bring em, if ya got em. Hey man, you're not alone. What's anxiety feel like for you? For me, it's kinda like...well, come find out! Is there talk of going on a date? Yeah. Grab your sh*t and get over here - it's Hot Chicken time!

Episode 20! New title format! Quotes from the episode! This episode...we got - anxiety...as usual. Rachel had the stomach flu - aka puke central. Vibrators, are you Jewish, gold star action, Uber drivers with haunted houses. We are keeping it brief this week. Sorry I'm tardy. Come hang - it's Wednesday.

Do you know all the shrimps Bubba lists? I do. Do you Tinder? Do you eat squirrels? What are your go-to opening lines? Honestly...none of them work - Russian Roulette...wud up! Do you have panic attacks? I did. It's Sunday, ya'll, come hang!

This week on The Hot Chicken Podcast, we discuss a recent visit to a Petco where a boy and his mother openly admitted to the involuntary manslaughter of their last guinea pig. Shouldn’t that mean you don’t get guinea pigs anymore?

Next, we focus on a dumb guy who got pulled over right outside my window. If you get pulled over, you probably shouldn’t make any sudden movements like this guy did. Speaking of crimes – what about the time Rachel herself had to run from the police?

What are some great excuses? Being in jail is a pretty good one. Come Listen!

It was a great week for the podcast. (Sorry I had some computer issues). Thank you to everyone who listened to me on The Moth's last podcast episode! Another BIG thank you to everyone who reached out in show of support and letting me know they like to podcast. Seriously - I can't describe how thankful I am and how awesome getting your emails was. Keep 'em coming! Moving on - we all have intrusive thoughts, why not embrace them? Tell me how you'd torture so and so - better yet, how could someone torture you? Rachel received a couple of advice emails too - sorry my advice was so sh**ty. What can I say, except "these balloons are killin' me"? Anyway, come hang out, it's kinda cold out there.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Episode 16 welcomes a stranger I met on Instagram...well not really...well, sorta. What's worse - finding your kid's box of cut up Barbies or burned Beanie Babies? My apologies in advance - I think too much wine, but nevertheless, a fun yet heartfelt conversation ensued. Grab your smokes and come join us.

This week on Hot Chicken, Rachel got some great news. Can you say - The Moth? I also talk to my very best friend in the world, Lauren, who is battling a hangover and preparing to take some tasteful nudes in Kalamazoo. What a woman. Would you ever date someone with the same name as you? Would you join "Pump & Squeeze" gym? It's simple - we pump and we squeeze, what do you not understand? It's Sunday - too bad "Jobs That Aren't Ours" isn't on.

Raw episode comin' in hot. Meaning the kid didn't do too much editing. On this episode of Hot Chicken, Rachel discusses heightened depression and anxiety on Sundays, people who aren't on their game in line at Starbucks, and she does a little reading, too. Hope you're in - take a deep breath, have a sip of wine - it's Sunday and it sucks, but we're in this together.

Special thanks to my friend for the silly freestyle rap in the opener. Another thanks to a friend for reading a hot chicken recipe in the closer. That’s right, Rach had a bday. 25 – b**ch, but I still feel like a girl. You? How’s your vocabulary? How’s your Tinder going? I have a few questions. I have an honest convo about getting drinks with an ex of mine a while back. Do I miss her? Maybe. We talk a little about Virginia Woolf and realizing you have a fat vag, too. Come hang out – there’s champagne.

This week on Hot Chicken, it's just you and me - isn't it always though? On occasion but occasionally? I don't know, but I'm looking for 5 MILLION not GGGGGs. And just so you know - they actually are Indian and I know, I know, - "apartment not enpartment." What can I say - "I'm dumb, I guess." Rachel had a birthday and this recording is the last time I was 24. If you like Coco La Croix - change who you are and if you send camel emojis for Hump Day, that's annoying but the news likes you. Everyone email Apple and tell them we want really humping.   Happy Monday, chicks.

What's your last meal? I couldn't believe they won't give you booze - but why not?! Who had the last cup of coffee? I still can't believe they won't give you booze. This episode I have my friend, Mike over to help me with all my equipment issues and this guy solved it without knowing shit about audio. Thanks, Mike. Anyway - how would you go out? WE decided it would be best to take a bunch of zanies and call it quits if we had to. Light your cigars, turn on your oven - I don't give a sh*t because it's time for hot chicken.

Hi, I'm Rachel - what's your name? In episode 10, your host (me) reveals some of her quirks. We are all over the map today - how do you feel about sex robots? Would you give it a go?  Who would you pick - Edie Falco, Meryl Streep or Megan Mullally?  We talk about anxiety  and the fun game Rachel plays to relieve it.  Also! if you don't know d*ck about seasoning a chicken breast, I got you. What I learned  most? That talking alone on a podcast is hard and you shouldn't bike while drinking a coffee.

Are Asian dudes more kinky? Sometimes people make you hide in their wing of a mansion and other times people tell you they look awful naked. Hangin' out with my friend, Brook, who has some fun tales of being a gay guy and all the firsts and all the "whaaaaaaat?" moments. Get ready - this chicken is hot.

Oh COME ON! We can either be BFFs or you can take my, well...sparkly purple. Pictures of us might be awful AND sometimes people DO admit their failures like my friend does.  it starts with "B" and ends with "jobs."I'm super dumb dumb but Slaughter Rico is here and this SOB can rap. Lastly, have you ever heard someone someone j-i-z-z from reading a hot chicken recipe? I hadn't...until now.

My guest and the host of "Bois Meet World," Uncle Amb, is here. Let's see - What type of videos do you watch? Do you watch these videos with someone you care about? What about farts? Do you think they sound like queefs sometimes? What type of famous do you think you are? Are we going to Connecticut? I don't care if you're old - you need to be nice too. Come and eat chicken thighs with us.

Let's go!

It's Friday and Rachel is mostly tender, but adults don't get to have recitals. They can get down on the street like the rest of us. Do I like ordering at restaurants? I'd rather not discuss it. I barely made lobster linguine...sorry but I have other shit on my mind.

We meant serotonin not melatonin. Rachel is great at interrupting BUT one day in a mental health facility is $2000 (A DAY) – so which is worse? Guys… welcome Mario M (@homicidaldaddy on Instagram). FINALLY! Got this episode up and we are all over the place – Mario and I apologize for that in advance. Rachel is still learning to edit so be nice, make fun of white blonde women riding bikes three sizes to small instead. But seriously, we love everyone and we love odd transitions in topics. PS. Bacon mayonnaise will kill you. PPS – I say “crazy” a lot and I don’t mean it like that, not all baby boomers ignore mental health issues and not all cops are mean.

Rachel saw a fox! Some buddies came by this last Thursday and I also did a little thinking. It's Saturday evening now but it was the afternoon when I recorded it.  Oh and watch The Edge  if you have time.
