Tariffs, Teslas & Colonics: A Delulu Girl’s Guide to Global Collapse
This episode is a full-body cleanse—for your gut, your feed, and your faith in modern society. We’re diving into Trump’s new tariffs and the $3 trillion stock market wipeout, why American cars should come with trauma disclaimers, and how Tesla is basically your hot ex who ghosted and blames the moon.
Also: I took 5 colon cleanse pills and had a spiritual awakening. We’re talking perimenopause, MCAS, Etsy witch spells, and why your FYP thinks you need to manifest a boyfriend.
If anyone asks… I’m fine.

Welcome back to the most unhinged, accidentally educational episode of the podcast yet—“Tariffs, Teslas & Colonics: A Delulu Girl’s Guide to Global Collapse.” Buckle up (in your emotionally unavailable American car), because this one is a full-body purge. I start this week’s episode where all iconic journeys begin: on the toilet, mid-colon cleanse, questioning every life choice. I took five colon detox pills because my gut is currently holding onto trauma, parasites, and probably a toxic situationship from 2019. From hip bursitis and arthritis to full-blown MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome) and perimenopause, we’re covering the chaotic medical bingo card that is my life. And yes, I have histamine intolerance, hormonal migraines, and I think a bacterium from my Eat Pray Love trip is still renting space in my large intestine. While my insides are evacuating, the global economy is doing the same. Let’s talk Trump’s new tariffs—because nothing says “Welcome to Q2” like a 10% universal import tax, a 54% tariff on Chinese goods, and a 25% tax on imported cars. Meanwhile, the stock market had a $3.1 trillion meltdown, the S&P dropped 4.8%, and tech bros are weeping into their standing desks. I break it all down, in language you’ll actually understand (and laugh at)—because if we’re going down, we’re doing it with a glass of overpriced kombucha and a sarcastic smirk.
And now for the fun part: the Tesla takedown.
Why is this car the gaslighting boyfriend of the auto industry? Why does it cost $80K but come with a touchscreen from 2014 and a steering wheel that ghosts you mid-lane? Why does the car try to self-drive into chaos while Elon tweets like an AI stuck in a breakup loop? I said what I said. If your Tesla is listening, I hope it cries.
We also drag:
- 🚗 American cars (aka Depression on wheels)
- 💸 Etsy spells (“Make him text you” spells that somehow just make you bloated)
- 📉 Your For You Page trying to sell you witchcraft to fix your love life
- 🔮 The cult of manifestation TikTok (you’re not manifesting a soulmate, you’re manifesting IBS and confusion)
- 🧠 Why the algorithm thinks I’m desperate (it’s not wrong, just rude)
If you’ve ever cried in a car, screamed at a spell jar, or tried to balance hormones while reading about global trade, this episode is for you.
This is not a wellness podcast. This is a capitalism cleanse with a comedy chaser.
Come for the colon cleanse, stay for the collapse.

Pilates and Coldplay Cheating CEO Scandal
25:40||Season 5, Ep. 186This week’s episode is a full spiral, reformer-style. We kick off in the Pilates studio where I’m sweating, shaking, and resisting the cult of leggings while surrounded by girls named Sage in $300 sets. Then we talk gym culture, peri-menopausal survival, and why I now dress like I’ve lost everything in the divorce… for safety.Because in 2025? Looking rich is a liability.I unpack the emotional damage of trying to look poor on vacation while influencers get robbed in Paris for posting their Birkins.This week on Currently Cringing, we spiral through everything from gym culture and Pilates reformer trauma to Mounjaro-fueled survival and a Coldplay concert affair that turned into an HR disaster.

We’re also calling out Prada’s $1,200 Kolhapuri chappals (colonizer-core is not couture) and breaking down why the vibe economy is broken—because artists and cultural creators keep building the vibe while corporations keep cashing the checks.And finally, I’m entering month two of Mounjaro, my blood sugar’s balanced, my inflammation is down, and I’ve never felt better—even if society is in full-blown aesthetic chaos.Carnival cruise documentary, poop cruise Netflix, Labubu doll Pazuzu, Prada Kolhapuri sandal, Zara AI fashion, vibe economy, cultural appropriation fashion, mounjaro update 2025, Currently Cringing podcast, luxury fashion critique, aesthetic theft#FunnyPodcast #Relatable #ComedyPodcast #FunnyGirls #GirlsPodcast #WomenPodcast #MillennialPodcast #femalepodcast #popculture184.

Fjords, Cold Plunges, Jellyfish, and the End of the World
22:02||Season 5, Ep. 183This week, I take you on an emotionally unhinged journey from the glacial waters of Norway to the psychological battlefield that is… modern life in America. What starts as a bougie wellness trip—complete with sauna bonding, orange jellyfish, and Scandinavian death water—spirals into a full-blown existential crisis about war, privilege, and whether I should be stocking adaptogens or ammo.I dive into thalassophobia, my husband’s Olympic plunge energy, and why nature is not my birthright. Then I land back in the U.S. and WHIPLASH: it’s war, again. Instagram is a mix of missile strikes, makeup tutorials, and influencers contouring through the collapse. Welcome to the simulation.We talk privilege, the politics of panic, global chaos, and the real reason I’m skipping the next cold plunge: I’d rather be judged in Monaco by a Pomeranian than emotionally waterboarded by a fjord.Warning: Contains jellyfish trauma, aesthetic spiralsNorway, Fjord, Oslo, Travel#FunnyPodcast #Relatable #ComedyPodcast #FunnyGirls #GirlsPodcast #WomenPodcast #MillennialPodcast #femalepodcast #popculture182. WWJD: Bezos and Modern Power

Anisha breaks down the $200B masquerade, Kim K’s Saint Laurent Succubus moment, Bezos’ kids ghosting the ceremony, and why this wasn’t a wedding—it was a rebrand. We’re talking narcissism, NDAs, Nepo billionaires, and the sickeningly soft power of silicone Versailles. It’s Eyes Wide Shut meets Forbes 500 with a prenup. What Would Jeff Do? Apparently, everything.#BezosWedding #LaurenSanchez #CurrentlyCringing #WWJD #MainCharacterEnergy #PopCulture #ViralPodcast #Unfiltered #CulturalCommentary#FunnyPodcast #Relatable #ComedyPodcast #FunnyGirls #GirlsPodcast #WomenPodcast #MillennialPodcast #femalepodcast181. Microdosing Mounjaro
28:08||Season 5, Ep. 181We waited three hours in the rain for Ceres Pizza in NYC. It was $115. There were time slots being screamed like we were at JFK, and we left with two pizzas, five people, and zero slices to spare for the poor man who tried to Venmo us. This is the energy I left New York with—and then flew straight to Scandinavia.In this unfiltered episode, I’m taking you through my chaotic, gorgeous, hormonally regulated European birthday tour for my husband across Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Czech Republic, Austria, and Hungary—all while microdosing Mounjaro.No migraines. No sinus infections. No sugar spirals. Just schnapps, goulash, beer, and 20,000 steps a day in platform sneakers. We peed in floor-to-ceiling glass bathrooms, swam in fjords, and I was recognized by Family Karma fans in Aurland, Norway (a North Carolina supermodel couple, obviously).I share my full Mounjaro update—how I lost 9 lbs of inflammation and water weight, cleared the food noise, slept like I astral projected, and didn’t even want dessert in Europe. My period showed up on cue (because she always vacations with me), but for the first time in years? No migraine. No histamine meltdown.And because I have too much to say and too many opinions to gatekeep, I’m launching a curated travel + wellness blog—a chaotic guide to food, culture, hormones, luxury, and how to survive Europe with a carry-on and cortisol. You’re welcome.I’m also heading straight from this trip into stand-up shows, because apparently I enjoy exhaustion. Let’s get into it.Funny podcast girls comedy female millennial mounjaro180.
