A comedy podcast for the neurotic talking about daily struggles and the minutiae of everyday life with an occasional emphasis on depression and mental health. The show was originally known as "Mentally Ch(ill)", hosted by Stevie Ryan and Kristen Carney until Stevie tragically passed away in 2017. RIP Stevie. We love you.

Back for another episode! I'm joined by comedian Alli Breen for back-from-hiatus episode #2. We talk about therapy and if it's worth it, being chronically late, mushrooms, overthinking things we've said, ignoring people in elevators and so much more.
Well, well, well, look who it is. It's your ol' pal Kristen. It's only been MORE THAN 3 1/2 years since the last time I posted an episode. The last time I taped we were a month into COVID, still had our minds, my mom was still alive and my heart hadn't been eaten alive by a relationship. I hope the last 3 1/2 years haven't turned you into a completely different person too, but if it has, I hope it was for the better.
This first episode back I'm joined by one of my favorite comedians and people, Dan Naturman, who you've seen on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, David Letterman, Comedy Central Presents, AGT, Last Comic Standing etc etc etc. We talk about performance anxiety, "normal" comedians, plane crashes, public bathroom etiquette and so many more hot topics.
I'll be posting a new episode once a month as I ease my way back into the show. If you'd like to watch the full, unedited video version of the podcast, you can do that at Patreon.com/KristenCarney

Mike Carano (Corona) is back! And, he's here to talk about progress, set-backs, and actually doing the things you KNOW will help you (and Kristen couldn't relate more). They also talk about getting outside, being isolated, going off medication, validation, smelly microphones and so many more things that the neurotic person can relate to. Follow Mike on Instagram @MikeCarano and Kristen @Kriscarn. Thank you for listening and sharing the show with a friend.Â
Welcome to the show now known as 'Kristen, chill.' Hopefully this is the last name change and the first of many episodes under the somewhat-ish new moniker. Kristen is joined by Resident Consultant Jen and "Ky the Movie Guy" to talk about the Coronavirus and our "new normal" (that's for you, Jen). They talk about what they've been doing to get through these strange times, how Jen coped with a mandatory 14 day quarantine after coming in contact with not 1 but 2, count 'em 2 confirmed Coronavirus patients. They also talk about Kyle, as a grocery store manager, being on the front lines. Kristen also tells us about going off of antidepressants, her dog passing, why she isn't watching TV and how disappointed she is Kyle. For extra show content, go to Patreon.com/KristenandChill (the web address hasn't changed along with the new name quite yet). Also, follow Kristen on Instagram @kriscarn and Twitter @KristenCarney and Jen and Kyle on Twitter @ifner24 and @filthykyle. Stay safe out there!Â
Kristen is pushed out of her comfort zone this month and talks all about it and why it'll be good for her. Her and Resident Consultant Jen also talk about awkward silences, ski etiquette and the speculation around Kristen's Great Great Grandfather's death/suicide. They also talk about why Jen has a hard time doing nothing, even on a vacation, Kristen's simple family and they do a little "Would You Rather" for old time's sake. Follow Kristen on Instagram @KrisCarn and on Twitter @KristenCarney. Jen barely tweets but follow her anyway on Twitter @ifner24.Â
In this first episode of the new decade, Kristen is joined by Resident Consultant Jen. They rehash the holidays, their recent dining out experience and why they still tip 20% or more. Kristen also gets into her first time back to therapy in 2 years and how much she likes her new therapist. They also talk about the depressing parts of the holidays, pee streams, and HOW EMPATHETIC RESIDENT CONSULTANT JEN IS. Thanks for listening! Find Kristen on Instagram @KrisCarn.Â
Kyle is back for his FIRST OFFICIAL regular-weekly appearance. They talk about changing the name of the show, whether or not they’re actually narcissists, how Kristen is still lonely for human touch and meeting men at Starbucks. They discuss morning journaling and whether or not the senator involved in #fartgate really let one go or not. Get extras of the show at Patreon.com/kristenandchill
This week, two narcissists (Kristen and Kyle) talk about self-involvement, confidence and why being into yourself has become so en vogue and how it effects Kristen’s depression. They (Kristen) also won’t shut up about losing the episode they did that was never actually recorded, leaving them (Kristen) devastated. There’s also talk about cuddling with Neal Brennan, Joker (SPOILERS) and why Kyle should do the show weekly. If you want the show back weekly, TWEET to Kyle @FilthyKyle with #Kyleandchill and tell him you want him and the show weekly! I (Kristen) implore you.

Kristen really lets lose in this episode about why she hasn’t had a show out in a month so bear with her. Kyle sure does!
