eliza saying can i pull you for a chat gave me whiplash
Amanda Crampton
unfortunately Andrew Tate is not in Slovakian prison my friend bumped into him in Romania last week 💀
Kristen
also starbucks does not endorse anything political. their biggest crime against humanity is being an international corporation and being anti-union.

How do I order onitsuka tigers? I need the help of the youth. They don’t have a U.S. website anymore
madison 💐
i would give zach braff 3 concussions because i’m tired of those damn t mobile commercials
lils
not to be rude but... they were talking about how the starbucks food is horrible, not promoting it in any way. and they've made multiple comments on the genocide and emphasized their reasons for being hesitant. if you decide what they have done/their reasoning is not enough (which u have every right to believe), then it's probably wise unsubscribe and move on because if they were to address it just because people are calling them out, it wouldn't be genuine anyway...
jadyn
Okay so we’re protesting adidas because of the Bella hadid campaign but yall were just talking about starbucks in the other ep like it was an option for ur food …. And still haven’t said anything about the genocide either? Ok

Omg hi fellow JC binchie 👋🏻
Sofia
girls are you seeing the it ends with us movie? my friend and i saw bc we didn’t have shit else to do and i’m curious to hear your thoughts
mimi kiki
I don’t think it will be a regular thing, like eliza mentioned more of a resource to come back to!
Emelia Haskey
Not sure if I’m super keen on the recommendations section - I feel like so much of my brain space is already taken up with consumerism and shopping and what products I should use, and I don’t love hearing that stuff on the pod when I just wanna vibe listening to the binchies
sarah keely
I absolutely wish it was in ny but unfortunately it is manhattan Kansas
Madeline Rys
Omg welcome to new yonk! I'm in jersey city but I would make a nyc friend :)
Madeline Rys
If anyone needs 1 ticket to tomorrow's show I have an extra! All my friends are busy hehehe

the patreon UI sucks so bad :(
Mason
May I recommend the Jack black intense therapy lip balm with SPF30!!
taylor rosen
I finally got mine under control but it’s lowkey a nightmare! I think I found out I’m allergic to mineral sunscreen so it was really hard to find an option that wouldn’t irritate my skin but also allow me to actually apply sunscreen! I definitely recommend that sunscreen for the future going forward!
Stina Olsson
GIRL! I also had perioral dermatitis bc of products. I stopped with everything for a good while, only washed my face with water BUT most importantly: then I applied Cicaplast B5 Baume from La Roche Posay, and it’s the only thing that helped. I had perioral dermatitis for like 6 months, tried everything but it only got worse and worse, until I started using Cicaplast - and then it all healed out in a couple of weeks. It’s fucking amazing I swear by it!!
Cat Cat
yes it changed my life
Cat Cat
The chicest backpack in my opinion is the fjallraven kanken, but otherwise a vibe like the lululemon backpack seems reliable. Also i put my baggus in the washing machine!!
taylor rosen
omg yall need to try dazzle dry nail polish! My nails get really weak when I do nail polish, and these work so much better on them. They dry in 5 min and last as long as gel nails, but they don’t require UV so they don’t hurt them as much!
taylor rosen
The beauty of Joseon sunscreen slays so hard! I started using it after I damaged my skin barrier and got perioral dermatitis from using too many skin care products. It’s the only thing that hasn’t irritated my skin since. Lol I know this may be shocking but American chemical sunscreens naturally contain every single irritant for perioral dermatitis. If you want to buy it on Amazon, go to their website and look at their authorized retailers, and it will take you to the actual company’s storefront!
Erin
VIVIENNE ON THE PODDDD OH MY GODDDD
sarah keely
Does anyone here live in Manhattan ks please I just moved and I need interesting friends 😞
Erin
Is there any better ticket websites?
Rachel Dion
rain or shine sunscreen is so good!! it’s very sheer and doesn’t irritate eyes or skin at alll and very moisturizing
M
Honestly, I didn’t get that sad Mormon wife narrative from the article that I read about Hannah. I most certainly would be miserable with that lifestyle AND I can recognize that some people do want to live that traditional lifestyle with kids and don’t need saving.
Camille Witt

I'm afraid I'd have to threaten Zach. Either he pay me or he gets concussed 🫢🤷♀️
Maddiesue Hensinger
BEST EYELINER ALERT is the wet and wild breakup proofs it’s <$5 and i have been using it for my bisexual winged liner for years. truly is breakup proof it has lasted thorough my breakup cry and rebound ~moment~ all the way to the morning. it also comes in a slim version for extra precision
Ava
i recommend using MegaBabe to stop your thighs from being irritated when rubbing together!!! i love skirts & dresses and it literally saves my life
butter bean
My go to perfume rn is Dossier’s floral lavender!!! It’s a dupe for YSL libre and I’m soooo obsessed. Smells the exact same and was way cheaper for a nice sized bottle. I bought a mini perfume atomizer too so i can make it travel size! Also as a Florida binchie I don’t go anywhere without my MegaBabe anti chafing stick. Allows me to wear shorts comfortably
Maeve Hoppen
also I love the glossier lipsticks too but the packaging was so bad that the actual product would get loose in a whole ass chunk and it was also $25. and also I tried pillow soft curls and the fragrance/dye was so strong it gave me a rash!
Maeve Hoppen
and Bush passed the Americans with Disabilities Act! repubs used to listen to the people more than a lot of Dems these days 🙃 (which isn’t a compliment to conservatives it’s an insult to liberals lol)
Maeve Hoppen
binch SK2 is like $100 😭 it works miracles on ppl tho
Hannah
A straight woman who works in trades listened to this *me* and I thought it was so funny how you said “twisty nail” 😭☠️😂

Binchies I absolutely loved your opening diy adventures with anchors and screws. I too learned how to anchor last year and this year I fully floored a house and installed stairs!! Become the hot handy person you want to see in the world!!
Carly
Re: ballerina farm I would highly the "Sounds Like a Cult" podcast in general and their episode on the cult of tradwives https://open.spotify.com/episode/0rrJ9JgdFmylKAxqf52l9R?si=4UdDYbDAQHaSTe2m-RGRBw%0A

Ballerina farm reminds me of that quote from Game of Thrones where Cersei tells Sansa “you will not love the king…but you will love his children.”

hey besties!! delete if not allowed but I work for a company called brandefy and we have a mobile app to help beauty lovers find dupes/alternatives to their fav products! it’s all community generated and we do ingredient matches so you can know if it’s worth the splurge <3
Ann
No offense, but we are nearing 40,000 Palestinian deaths, the time for “hearing concerns” has passed. And in what way does calling out her active role in a genocide help Trump? He is not a pro-Palestinian candidate. The voters that Kamala is “at risk” of losing due to something like this are the voters who are choosing between her and more progressive 3rd party candidates who actually speak about the horrors in Gaza, not her and Trump. If she is worried about losing voters, maybe she should change her position, not blame concerned citizens.
Kris Lynn
Have you all talked about the menswear guy on Twitter?? I need Julia's psychoanalysis. He's so interesting to me!
Kris Lynn
Not to defend her, but they are reporting she did meet with them before the rally and heard their concerns. She also said something like "in democracy everyone has a voice but I'm talking right now". Her point was that if they kept yelling over her & making her look bad it was going to help Trump's campaign.
Lauren Patel
omg snail mucin is my girl!! very good for my combo skin hydrates me without making me feel greasy
hanna ⭐️
real…it smells like fresh laundry to me (the gel doesn’t work for my hair tho :/)
Ann
Idk the part about the election falls flat for me, coming from a pod that has continuously ignored the genocide we are facilitating under a Democrat. Especially the quote “who would you rather organize under?” when we saw hundreds arrested for protesting at colleges this year. Today Kamala literally told pro-Palestine protestors at her rally that they “want Donald Trump to win”. She’s fear-mongering votes by blaming people who are protesting her role in an active genocide. Idk vote for whoever you want, but the notion that voting 3rd party is the same as voting for Donald Trump has always been reactionary lib shit
Lauren Cardone
hi!! i messaged you!
xuanlephant
SK-II is from Japan queens 🫶🏼
Hannah Grace
For curly/wavy hair, you should check out Innersense! Smells amazing, no chemical smell at all!!
The Immaculate Witch Kaitlin Reckord
Omg I was like ooh love a comfy shoe- then I looked it up and GIRL. It's not for me, but I support you and your unsettling footwear- scare a man, shake up a dude! 💖
Sally Paik
I just got the Rhode blush in sleepy girl and 🫶
Poppy
The Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter isn’t a foundation! It’s basically a glowy primer, so good under ur base or mixed in with foundation. Defs reccomend trying the Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin foundation it’s soooo insanely good
Annika Lawson
the other day my boyfriend got home from work and told me about a regular who comes in with his dog who has "newly adopted flip flops" and naturally I thought he meant the dog was named flip flop which is like SO cute. but he was saying the guy usually comes in barefoot but had on flip flops. awkward. but like now I wanna get a dog and name it flip flop, imagine how cute. anyway not relevant to your story just thought I'd throw it out there into the internet ether
Ferris

katy g

Sienna
not me representing the bushwick vote 🤚🏼😭
Kara
I was originally confusing Zach Braff for Dax Sheppard and my answer was a LOT higher …. I’d go 2-3 depending on the state of my pocket
Madeline Singh
Fun and orthotically sound footwead fav: the vibran five finger shoes. I wear the v soul and they look like ballet flats but unsettling. Which is my vibe
Kara
yaaaaas !!!
Kara
i’m from kentucky originally and god DAMN i love andy beshear. during covid he would have facebook lives giving “fireside chat” vibes. the way he leads has been kentucky’s only saving grace LITERALLY in so many ways.
Annip
so glad i saved my leather rainbow flimp flomps in the back of my parents closet i have been so ready for their resurgence
Reagan

Aspyn Martin
i live in the middle of the desert and have worn flip flops every single day this summer, i have now worn out three cheap pairs😂
Nicollet Laframboise
hey besties!! they just opened a new indie perfume shop in williamsburg called Stele it's so cute and they carry a lot of fragrances from under the radar brands if you're in the market for new fragrances y'all should check it out!
Devin
re: shoes- this has been a summer of ballet flat for me. something very romantic about a little dress and a little glass of wine with a delicate shoe! invested in the alohas rosalind flats and they are worth every penny and very gorgeous to me
Naomi Listokin
I too am a victim of thigh chafing and have found the only thing that has worked is this deodorant like stick called mega babe!! According to my mom it was created by a fellow chafestress who was maybe a stemstress??? Yall should check it out and lmk its been my saving grace this summer
Charlie

gill
Q: are we not able to listen to the paid pod on Spotify? I am a patron for other pods, and it shows up on Spotify …. (I low key hate that Patreon doesn’t allow you to queue episodes)
Cat Pence
love a pop culture round up
Cat Pence
this is amazing I'm so happy thank you your queenships
Tori D
on the topic of diy home improvement you can get a stud finder !! they’re not perfect 100% but they’re usually fine
Sadie Wise
I had a dream last night where Eliza, Julia and I were friends at Disney land. Eliza got a Carrie Bradshaw poster in the gift shop and I was jealous! She ripped half of it for me and I felt loved. After that, I crossed the street to go home to my family then woke up 😍 good morning and why are you guys in my subconscious
madeline
Ok a girl on TikTok suggested Essie gel couture and rub your nails with rubbing alcohol right before you apply it… game changer for regular polish girlies
Allie
The makeup conversation is making me realize how fucking ancient (c. 2016) my makeup habits are, in my old hag era
Rebecca Thornley
Please comment on the horrors of the it ends with us movie
Marisa
I will always stan cloudpaint
Brianna Bogucki
Also wavy girlies looking for an inexpensive product to define your waves without being too heavy, Odele air dry styling cream! I have done so many different combos from prestige brands and nothing tops this, I just scrunch it into my hair when it is sopping wet and it's like $12
Brianna Bogucki
Ok but Glossier Cloudpaint + Ultralip are so good, the Generation G lipstick is the one that is a flop and breaks
lauren
Capo Pelosi has Biden in a cage somewhere
lauren
there simply is no gayer name!! (source: me, a lisbin) honestly any name with an “x” in it is automatically gay

I too have had the shitty ass cap of my glossier lipstick fall off in my baggu crescent bag so realizing I have never had an original experience even once🧍♀️
Isabella Carney
probably everywhere but in Aus we are having a MASSIVE issues with buying concert tickets for any relatively-popular artist being worse than the hunger games requiring multiple girlies with multiple screens on multiple devices to get a ticket. Literally takes an emotional toll… Also have noticed in the part couple years getting so expensive!!
Olivia Jones
The elf Liquid eyeliner with the little brush is literally the only eyeliner I ever used since I was 12 and I will never switch. It is my FAVORITE it’s so precise and perfect my one holy grail product

soph
just so binchies know, kiehls isn’t cruelty free nor is it bds safe :( and paula’s choice isn’t bds safe either. sooo sad cuz i love them! beauty of jeosung (and most kbeauty) are not on the boycott list tho!!
jordy
ok for zach braff concussion question my immediate instinctual answer is 3. ive had 2 and get im fine. but i do think it’s worth considering that at some point the amount of concussions will not matter past a certain extent. like i feel like there’s not a huge difference between 30 and 100 concussions. so maybe we give zach braff a billion concussions to crash the economy and cause the fall of capitalism. he’s the sacrifice
Lily Ana Verna
the energy of joe biden potentially not being alive feels like when you're in middle school and the teacher isn't in the classroom but no one even realizes for like 15 minutes and it's surprisingly calm

That’s so fair, I know what you mean 💕
Victoria Wilde
RE: ballerina farms and Mormons I grew up Mormon and it’s a much more conservative and demanding religion than most modern Christian churches. From a young age your dreams are discouraged if they involve anything other than motherhood. When I told one of my church teachers I wanted to go to an Ivy League school she literally said “oh you’ll change your mind when you meet a nice boy and have babies.” I don’t know much about ballerina farms but if she said she knew her life would have to change when she had children, I’d bet my life it’s because she was told her whole childhood that her dreams could only be temporary. The Mormon church has this document called “the family: a proclamation to the world” which basically says the woman’s place in the house is to nurture children and obey her husband. 🤮
Leanne Hays
Kamala still has to win over the 29 uncommitted Dem delegates who voted in opposition. I think for her to maintain the momentum & support she’ll need to revamp her stance/policy re: Israel-Gaza
Robyn
I know about Kim Campbell but I feel that doesn’t really count because no one has ever elected a woman as PM since and there is so much misogyny in Canadian politics
Margaret Johnston
We have! Kim Campbell was PM for a short time in 1993 (like 6 months) but she was never elected, she was a Conservative who took over leadership and became PM until the next election.
Courtney Wilson
Stuck at the airport and NEEEEDED this

Unfortunately Canadian binchies have not had a female PM :(
