    51:45||Season 1, Ep. 33
    This week on Disgruntled, Bailey and Gill are back (yes, alive and well—despite rumors of emotional abandonment) and catching you up on everything from chaos, grief, and travel mishaps to the tiny, irrational things that absolutely send us over the edge.We kick things off with complaints that range from “where the hell did you go?” (valid) to weather apps gaslighting us, apartments with zero soundproofing, and people who think sending 147 unread messages is a personality trait. Truly, the villains are everywhere.But it’s not all yelling into the void—okay, it mostly is—but we also get real about navigating grief, finding normalcy after loss, and how life doesn’t exactly pause while you’re trying to process it. It’s honest, it’s a little unhinged, and it’s exactly what you needed.So whether you’re emotionally dependent on this podcast, personally victimized by humidity forecasts, or just here for the chaos… welcome home. We missed you. Don’t ever scare us like that again.
