In a surprise for everyone (even herself) Rach announces that For Better & Worse has come to an official end. In this final farewell she gives her explanation, as well as expresses her undying love for all of you listeners. Really and truly, For Better & Worse would be nothing without you guys.

Thank you for the past 6 years. 132 episodes. Every email, message, voicemail, and comment. I will never forget this. I love you all.

We are mixing things up this week (aka pushing the hotline caller to next week) because Rach just couldn't wait to overshare on the internet. Rach and Jeri talk a LOT about the state of Wisconsin and they hate every second of it. Piper gives us all a new vocal stim before we get into the meat this week: Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria.

Do you think the only thing better than rejection is death? Does your skin catch on fire over a minor mistake? Are you neurospicy and want some co-miseration? Than boy do we have the episode for you! Rach leads the episode with some (boots on the ground) research she's done to help define an experience that has shaped her entire life. Drop allll the comments if you can relate.

This may be a podcast about relationships, but this week its all about that cute white cat with a bow in her hair! After stumbling upon some lore in their Patreon live last month, Rach surprises Jeri with a whole episode dedicated to Kitty White, aka - Hello Kitty. While this may not be our typical content, we hope you enjoy a little pop culture history session with plenty of yap!

This episode starts out with Rachel's biggest fear - psychoanalyzing Taylor Alison Swift publicly where the Swifties could tear her to shreds. The girls soon meander down memory lane with a prompt Jeri brings to the table, before we get into this weeks hotline caller. This week our emailer, "Shannon", asks a very relatable question for anyone in their early 20s... When do you know its time to call it quits with your friend group? And how the HELL do you foster community in adulthood? We have our answers - but please drop your comments with your favorite way to make friends in the year 2026!

All Rach wants is one thing in this world - to be a Scottsdale 5, okay?? She may or may not be risking her skin health to do this but she wont be taking any criticism at this time. In this episode we get into your hot takes. Can guys and girls truly be friends? Should soup be cancelled? Is Pilates just the new Jazzercise?

For once in our lives our intro banter has basically one theme - to jury or not to jury?? Once we sufficiently express how excellent Rach would be as a part of the criminal justice system, we head into our hotline caller!

Lane is pregnant and due any day with baby #2! She wants to know what advice we have for preparing for postpartum, especially after dealing with depression with her first. Rach and Jeri give their perspective and experiences, and try to give some tips on how she might be able to make this process easier as she enters this exciting but unpredictable chapter. Bottom line - GOOD LUCK LANE!!

Time blindness, run-ins with the supernatural, and a potential avocado vandal is on the rise. The intro banter is bantering before we get into this week's hotline episode. Our gorgeous gorgeous caller asks us (more specifically, Jeri): how do you get over dating younger men? We go ahead and say - let em' sip on that aged wine baby and enjoy the stamina.

We interrupt our typical content for... whatever this episode turned out to be. The first half of the episode we go for a long tangent about parenting, and give some kid updates for ya! The meat this week is reading and reacting to bizarre federal crimes we found on the internet. Can dentures cross state lines? Would selling a Woodsy the Owl shirt land you in jail? And most importantly... can you feed a pirate?? Come along on this lighthearted and fun episode with us and learn some shit you will most likely forget in 3 business days.

The truth comes out... Rach is a hisser, Jeri is a little addict, and they can't agree on whether Jeri should have twins or not. Our hotline emailer, "Allie" wrote to us about a work dilemma and toxic work atmosphere. Rach and Jeri give their two cents, and go on plenty of tangents along the way. Long story short - we should never work for people who make us feel like we are walking on eggshells, and sacrificing your peace for too long will leave lasting trauma (so GTFO, girl!!!).

Jeri's making Christmas cookies and Rach psychoanalyzes the hell out of her for it. The girls hit the ground absolutely running this episode and talk sibling dynamics, vacationing with toddlers, and Jeri's decluttering extravaganza before getting into the meat this week - why is Rach leaving the wedding industry?

After over 10 years of documenting weddings, Rach is hanging up her cameras and retiring. Jeri is a few years ahead of her so we chat about how weddings have changed in the past decade, and how social media has changed weddings forever.
