Sorta Awesome Super Stars

Awesome Overflow September 2023

Welcome to the Awesome Overflow for September 2023, and friends. You better buckle up.

Rebekah and I decided to ask each other some of the questions we didn't get to for Sorta Awesome episode 459 "What was the last ...?" As it turns out, we live in wildly different worlds when it comes to the number of underwear each of us currently have in rotation, and we NEED to know which one of us is weird. Later, Rebekah reveals to me a genre of spicy reading that left me genuinely speechless (and clutching all of my pearls).

ANYWAY THANKS FOR LISTENING!

And as always, thanks for being a Super Star!

Meg

  • Awesome Overflow: December 2023

    01:35:35|
    Well my dear friends, the time has come. It's our very last Awesome Overflow, created just for you Super Stars as we say goodbye to Sorta Awesome. The tone of our conversation is quintessential Sorta Awesome in all of its glory - we cover everything from the Awesomes of the Week we had been stockpiling to reading smut in public without hesitation to some very, VERY raw and vulnerable revelations about faith and religion. There is a LOT packed into this last conversation with you. Thank you for letting us trust our words to you about anything and everything. Thank you for letting us trust our hearts to you, and for you trusting your hearts to us!We very much could not have done this work without you.Sending ALL my love,MegSHOW NOTESKelly's Big Summer Blowout Awesomes of the Week: The mildew remover that practically requires hazmat but it's worth it: https://a.co/d/fSDLkAJ A non-radiant tinted moisturizer with SPF (now with retinol!): https://a.co/d/h211EPq Acapulco on Apple TV: https://tv.apple.com/us/show/acapulco/umc.cmc.8xrkg9zywke7g6a9ahmvpr3lViral Electric Scrub Brush - https://amzn.to/3RQVo0aSilent Vows by Jill Ramsower - https://amzn.to/483T8scBrittany Broski: YouTube, podcast, Royal Court
