We decided to try our hand at screenwriting. And by screenwriting, we mean, pitching vague movie ideas. Nat writes out an elaborate plot for songs she's never heard before, and Trudy places songs in equally as elaborate movies' soundtracks. Do these movies exist? No! But they should!

Yeah, this episode is what the kids these days would call 'lit,' fam. We talk about what's going on in our lives and play songs we've been listening to non-stop! We also obviously get off track and make strange noises into the mics at multiple points. You've been warned.

Happy Halloween!! Get in the spirit with us as we listen to spooky songs and talk about things that scare us (and maybe freak out just a little).

This episode is still silly, because we can't not be silly. But tonight we listen to some songs that maybe make us cry a little in the studio, and we discuss why they bring that reaction out in us. Join us in reflecting on decisions we've made and relationships we've lost as we listen to songs like 'Falling' by Harry Styles and 'Wasting My Young Years' by London Grammar.

View Details

Okay, so maybe not you specifically, but we play some songs that remind us of important people in our lives (spoiler alert, the first four songs are for each of our parents), talk about our nicknames, nostalgic memories, and as usual, get sidetracked talking about our lives in the present day. A classic trudy and nat episode, we hope you love it as much as we loved recording it <3

Listen to us and listen with us as we indulge indulge our deprived younger selves in this episode; we listen to boy bands and discuss why we never want to be pick-me girls ever again!

Summer is over, and we must mourn its loss, yes. But you know what's cool about summer being over? A NEW SEASON OF TRUDY AND NAT'S FIRESIDE CHATS. Join us as we talk about our summers, Natalie tries desperately to describe in detail what a day in the life of a Starbucks barista looks like, and we play for you the songs which best describe the vibes we curated while we were away from the studio. We're so glad to be back, and we hope you guys are too.

Join us in our exploration of radio ghosts and famous tik tok songs that were songs long before tik tok used them but are forever associated with the app from here on out nonetheless. We try to describe tik toks to you and each other without any audio or video from the tik toks themselves. It'll be fun!

  1. their soundtracks 2. their soundtracks 3. their soundtracks ... we think you get the point. Some of the most famous songs have come from movies we love (or hate, we won't judge you for having controversial opinions). Tune in to hear some of the ones Trudy and I do love, and to hear us talk about the lovely movies from which these hits came.
