• Episode 11: i did something bad | court cases, threesomes, audiobooks & lactose problems

  This week, the Bestie Boos tackle pop culture’s criminal edition — from P. Diddy and Cassie to Kim K’s courtroom moment and our gal Taylor swift being dragged into the Blake Lively & Justin Baldoni drama that we wish would end. Sam reveals worldwide headlines based on their own texts of 10 years, and a heated debate breaks out over audiobooks vs. reading. We also share heartfelt advice on how to really show up for friends going through tough times — plus a lactose-fuelled Kmart crisis to end on a high (or a low, depending who you ask).Please follow the podcast wherever you listen and please rate us (if its 5 stars!)Instagram - @bestieboosshowTikTok - @bestieboosshowIf you are wanting to work with us contact us at [email protected]:00 Welcome Back to Bestie Boos00:18 Highlights and Low Lights01:11 Car Troubles and Marketing Fun02:52 Pop Culture Roundup: Criminal Edition03:10 P Diddy and Cassie Drama05:19 Kim Kardashian's Paris Robbery07:47 Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni, and Taylor Swift Drama11:48 Audiobooks vs. Reading Debate14:37 Heartfelt Listener Messages16:43 Supporting Friends with Meal Train17:44 Avoiding Vague Offers of Help19:10 Being Persistent and Consistent20:22 The Importance of Communication24:52 Using Chat GPT for Everyday Tasks31:15 Final Thoughts and Shoutouts
