Normalize Getting Away from Toxic Family Members | Episode 83

View descriptionShare

Jerrilyn Lake (aka Indeskribeabull) and Lynee’ Monae kick things off in What Irritated Me This Week by airing their seasonal grievances: eating the same holiday food on repeat, resurrected freezer-burnt turkey in new disguises, and children running wild during grown-folk card games. From mac-and-cheese fatigue to banning kids from the spades table, the ladies make it clear—just because it’s the holidays doesn’t mean everyone gets access to your peace (or your plate).  

In Girl, What Happened, the conversation turns serious—but still funny—when Oprah’s comments about normalizing no contact with toxic family members spark a real discussion. Jerrilyn and Lynee’ fully agree that protecting your peace sometimes means blocking Auntie, Grandma, or whoever else keeps tearing you down under the guise of “family.” They break down how generational control, constant criticism, and guilt-tripping can stunt growth, damage relationships, and even spill into how you raise your own kids. Their message is clear: life is too short to keep people around just because you share DNA—especially during the most triggering time of year. 

Of course, the episode wouldn’t be complete without the ladies spiraling into side topics like traumatic Top Dog Law commercials, musty men who need step-by-step bathing instructions, and why hygiene should never be optional at any age. Between gift-card horror stories, holiday dating rules, and an unexpected debate about becoming a “monkey mom,” Episode 83 perfectly balances comedy and clarity.
