Gossip. We love it, we’re ashamed of it, we simply must know it all. Today Stephanie and Melissa each spill some of the hottest tea they’ve ever come by, explore the intricacies and dangers of talking sh*t and consider a scientific study that theorizes — is gossip actually good?

Real-life friends and stars of the hit TV show Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Stephanie Beatriz and Melissa Fumero, team up for a weekly podcast that will have you laughing, crying, and crying with laughter. They’ll talk about it all while helping each other (and us) be better – MORE better.

Join these amigas as they take us on their personal ride through all aspects of life and share the juiciest cheat codes for adulting, while throwing in some hilarious anecdotes and probably a few embarrassing stories. In their careers and personal lives (both are married with children), they often find themselves leaning on each other for advice and laughs. Follow Stephanie and Melissa as they keep it real, and real fun on their journey to be little MORE better.

The listener questions are back! This week, Stephanie and Melissa field a very special question from twin sister listeners Lisa and Kristen who are planning a very special birthday — their 40th! Milestone birthdays can be overwhelming. There can be pressure to throw the perfect party, keep up with the Joneses and make the absolute most of every single second we have on this planet and not fall behind. But there’s no need to stress — Steph and Mel are here to talk us through it all. They share stories about their own milestone birthdays good and bad, and explain why celebrating another year of survival matters. Just be kind to yourself, it’ll be okay.
