This week, it’s just Gloria and Kären — no crime, no chaos (okay, maybe a little) — just us catching up and doing what we do best: spiraling into stories, sidebars, and straight-up nonsense. From random life updates to the weird things that have been living rent-free in our heads, this episode is full of those everyday moments that somehow always turn into something hilarious, ridiculous, or weirdly relatable.

Think of it as a long voice note from your best friends — come hang out.

This week, we dive into the disturbing case of Ruby Franke — the YouTube mom who went from family vlogger to facing felony child abuse charges. Gloria and Kären break down how the picture-perfect "8 Passengers" brand masked years of alarming behavior, the role of her business partner Jodi Hildebrandt, and how the online community saw the red flags long before authorities did. From toxic parenting advice to the unraveling of her influencer empire, we’ve got a lot to say. Buckle up — it’s messy.
