The girlies are back with their first bonus episode as Bicoastal Besties™️. Nothing is off limits here — they talk abysmal landlords (first to go in the revolution), respecting your elders, Eliza’s imprisonment at the Canadian border, emetophobia TW, best Glee cast original songs, thoughts on Doja Cat hating her fans, why the idea of personalized media is ruining the sanctity of art, and more!

Lindsay

Grace

eliza you probs can’t do anything about your rent now but when it comes time to renew your lease next year I would tell them that you know the other similar unit is $500 less each month

Brigid McCarthy

Kay

BICOASTAL BESTIES 💕💜

Averie

I have 2 tickets to DC if anyone wants to trade for 2 tickets to Chicago instead !!? 🫶🏻

maggie prider-wint

ELIZA!! as a vancouver binchie who was at the show (final paper queen here) if you ever come back which pls do, go through the abbotsford border instead!! peace arch is always backed the hell up. me and my bf went to seattle during a LONG WEEKEND and made it thru the abbotsford border in literally 2 mins while people at peace arch waited forever.

morgan elizabeth

I got bedbugs from a moving truck in nyc. (Or at least that’s what we suspected.) weirdly I apparently am not allergic to them and had no reaction, but my ex boyfriends body was covered with bed bug bites. Good times

Isø

Wait is emetophobia fear of belly buttons? I have that in abundance! Disgostin! I’m scared to google for clarification lol and also scared to listen..

Hannah

The bodegas (esp the smoking focused ones) have been casually selling weed for years but it’s ramped up A LOT since weed was decriminalized. My friend offered me her bodega weed once and I politely took a puff then asked her if she wanted to smoke my real weed

ssteph

i know the whales beaching themselves is so serious but when julia was describing them beaching themselves a second time all i could think about was those two girlies repeatedly throwing themselves into traffic

Gopi

omggg i am FILING away the concept of the complaint book! my kid just turned one so she currently airs out all her complaints non-verbally lol but will be v handy once she’s chattier 📒

sophia perkins

crying in louisianian hearing julia talk about the ease of getting weed in NY 😭 eliza if you want some mid weed smoke a lil joint on the southern touuuurrr

Emma

Looking for an extra ticket for the Chicago late show! :)

Rachel Burkman

Every time my landlord texts the group chat I read it in Mr Krabs voice 💰🦀👎

slizzarddd

Julia you mention the bronx zoo— where did you grow up? I’m a recovering westchesterite

Berkley 🌸

Eliza I keep meaning to say this- your nana reminds me so much of mine (also from NC, in the mountains like the rest of my dad's fam). She passed away a long time ago. That one time she called you during an episode I literally teared up bc her sweet accent just felt like home. Her voice alone gave me such a big hug 🥲

Shelby Wilkerson

Very happy to hear that Eliza supports canned salmon. I would be nowhere without tinned fish

baby yaga

teeheeing at julia’s immediate pivot from smoke routine to hair routine

kk

got full body chills when you compared aquarium enclosures to the lyrics of “crack baby”

Sasha Hoel

Opening up the complaint book is giving me a little bit of “I am at capacity right now” vibe not gonna lie 😭😭😭

emily

im going in….but i hope they mention j cyrus

Jazz

Most cities do have a helpline like that. My mid size hometown in South Dakota even has one but it’s 211

India Isaacson

Okay so the bodega scene is interesting. Yes they all have weed but depending on the place it can be pretty bad, there are lots of lowkey dispos especially downtown ( I like higher empire on 4th and 1st Ave ) that are a little more reliable. Stay stoned queen.

Acacia Kole

Acacia Brinley and I were kinda beefing lowkey because she started calling her fans acacia cats (kittens?) at some point and I had already taken the username acaciacat everywhere when I was like 11 💅

Maya Harris

the wales reminding me of those girls who kept running into traffic

Jessica Schneider

Binchtresses, I would like to formally request an alien episode. As my only chosen source of intellectual stimulation, I NEED to hear your alien theories

Delaney O'Neil

Re: the bed bug convo I can attest that landlords/property managers will not do shit unless you blast them publicly😌 my ass went on the local news to shame my apartment complex over me and others not having heat or hot water for 2 weeks in JANUARY last year (January in upstate ny might I add). Like I fully was like “this is illegal and a public safety issue that you’re not providing update and letting your tenants go without heat and hot water in January.” The news station reached out to them for comment and they lied and said they had offered hotel accommodation to the affected apartments which simply was not true bc you best believe my ass would have been laid up in a hotel💅🏻 long story short blast your landlords and property managers in public🥰🙏🏻

Chloe Bryan

@eliza I grew up in harnett county NC, we would say nothing good ever happens in Johnston county :) I know the exact cracker barrel you're talking about <3 I always connect with you when you talk about NC

RE: WHALES!! I learned during the first year of my environmental sciences degree that sonar waves (via ocean floor mapping, offshore wind turbines, and military technology) can severely harm whales by disrupting their feeding and breeding patterns and causing them to breach themselves to avoid the pain it causes them. Basically imagine the worst possible case of tinnitus and it’s inescapable. Military sonar technology was blamed for the deaths of whales found with bleeding ears in the Caribbean more than 20 years ago.

Stella Bloom

the whales beaching themselves is giving those twins who ran into traffic…

Jade

I'm from the same state in aus where the whales beached and it's happened before a few years ago! there's so many whales that live in that part of the ocean and they just don't know what happensssss :(

kerrie

re : ny weed idk if the bodegas just get it shipped but I think the first actual dispensary just opened in ny but idk maybe it is legal in bodegas but as an unfortunate long island binchie I only know mid street weed bc there are noooo mf dispensaries or anywhere w weed

kerrie

re aquariums colorado bitches know that the denver aquarium is so god damn depressing first I saw a stingray take a fat shite then a teenage girl dressed as a mermaid legit dove directly into it for some dance number they do and then on the way out you see the most random depressing emaciated tiger in the tiniest indoor enclosure and we saw these toddlers like taunting it and I fully cried 0/10

Zoë Grenier

I have discovered dying my brows with just for men beard dye and they are the best my brows have ever looked. The first few days they look mildly insane but they last a month and it takes like 10 minutes

Olivia Elam

I moved to the bay area from alabama the exact second she decided to show up at waffle house so upset rn X

Olivia Elam

So if anyone in the bay area wants a friend lmk

Emily

My god what a treat

iris ♡

WHAT i'm also in bay area and from alabama ??? girl let's link up

iris ♡

julia this might be a hot take but i really don't like the monterey aquarium - it felt so depressing but i will say i grew up going to the atlanta aquarium which is so fancy and nice so i was probably accustomed to a nicer standard of aquarium

Emily

Do u think u will ever record/post a live show? 👀 international gorls gotta hope n pray

Julianna

I was a wannabe singer back in the day and I met acacia Brinley when she was tumblr famous and she acted sooo above me yall it was insane

✨

I have a Boston late show ticket that I can't use!! Too sleepy of a girl to drive that late, idk what I was thinking. Please lmk if you want it!!

Ellie Shalvarjian

union square travel agency is literally the best dispensary (and licensed!), the workers are super helpful and it’s veryyyy LA i love it

Ellie Shalvarjian

highly recco because some of the bodega weed is WILD. i’m from LA and went to school in oregon so i love my greens 🤌🏻 but if you do want to elevate out of your body literally try a skittles joint from any bodega it’s like WILD

Ellie Shalvarjian

also if any baddies have tickets to the nyc show PLEASEEEE let me know, my roomie and i literally bonded over our love for this podcast and now we are going on our second year living together in nyc and it is still the number one thing we gossip about when nyc got us down bad 🫶🏻

Leslie

lol welcome to new york julia, you just got the crash course in nyc housing. glad u got ur door sorted now! my first apartment got broken into because of a faulty door, so i’m glad urs is fixed.

chessie

this is so funny because I grew up in Monterey and going to that aquarium and when I went to the GA aquarium I was underwhelmed lol. They are both really high caliber of aquarium and both do great research, I think they’re the top two in the US, but I prefer Monterey lol.

chessie

sooo I love the ocean representation we’ve been getting lately on the pod. I actually just wrapped up my masters in marine bio and I have a few things to say that might make you feel better about the aquarium ! (especially as someone who is from monterey lol). The otters are all rescues and would not be able to survive outside the aquarium and you might know this already but they serve as surrogate moms to stranded pups that are rehabbed at the aquarium and then released. As far as the fish go, many reef fish (like the ones in the kelp tank) have an area called a home range that they usually stick to. So staying in one sort of area is in line with their life history!

chessie

Same with octopus, they aren’t really traversing very far in the ocean.

chessie

also did you hear about the surfboard stealing otter?? lmaooo

Alis

We NEED an NYC recs/travel guide from Julia 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Brigid McCarthy

Many aquariums host injured animals that wouldn’t be able to survive in the wild :) it’s not all bad

Brigid McCarthy

Also julia don’t forget that Ariana also wrote “god forbid something happens…. At least this song is a smash” which is truth

Danielle

Eliza getting sick before the show does put you in rockstar statis

Danielle

How did you like your marine bio masters! I’m thinking of getting mine in a similar field!

chessie

it was good! I don’t recommend the school I went to really but I am enjoying having one and the opportunities it’s opened and getting to do research. So I recommend doing it just not at the institution I was at lol

mimi

RIP to my curly hair in germany bc the water is soooo goddamn hard and mineral-y here. when i visit the US my hair magically becomes soft and gorg again... so yeah it's impacted by the climate but also by the hardness or softness of the water

Dagny H

Lol discussing the rent fluctuations of units in your duplex Eliza. My partner and I recently signed on an apartment that we love for $2000 a month. HOWEVER, when I was originally creating my budget sheet I was only placing units that had a budget of around $1800. I went back to the budget sheet and saw that the unit we rented was originally $1800 and not $2000. We talked to our manager and he told us that unit prices in every complex fluctuate on a weekly basis. Anyways we found this to be true with all the other building we toured and they all also went up in price by $200-$300 in just one week! So if you ever find out there’s a large fluctuation just know it’s normal and it’s insane

Amelia

any boston late show girlies present?👀

Bella Maddy and Mikayla

Y’all offhandedly brought up ecofeminism and I would EAT UP an ecofeminism ep🫣

Sam

Do you have any recommendations for researching which aquariums are ethical? I know for zoos there’s some sort of accreditation that they can acquire, is there something similar?

Sam

Second question.. have you been to the Aquarium of the Bay in San Francisco? Because there was a sea otter there that to me looked like it was NOT doing well and it made me so upset

Tilly VW

just immediately upgraded to sexy legendress for this lets goooooo

Victoria Spadacenta

speaking of lana… ELIZA PLSS POST YOUR COVER OF AMERICAN IT WAS SO LOVLEY TO MY EARSSS

Brianna Alarcon

not me spending an hour on the acacia snark reddit because y’all mentioned it for less than a second

Cassidy K

If someone has a ticket to Chicago lmk!

Cassidy K

Also please talk about your enneagrams!!

Eliza Faeh

The SAME thing happened to me last summer at the peace arch. Minus the swifties though… I was at the border from Vancouver to Washington for 8 HOURS

chessie

yup it’s the same as zoo’s I believe, it’s AZA (association of zoos and aquariums) accreditation. I have been to aquarium of the bay! The otters there are river otters. They are AZA accredited as well, I used to intern in animal care at an AZA institution and I have to say that those animals get better health care than the average american (sad state of affairs). Even if the otter was ill I guarantee they were caring for it the best they could.

chessie

I’d also guess that those otters are all rescues as well though I can’t be 100% sure.

alicia kapeecia

“lana is a cultural anthropologist ,,, she may have grown up wealthy on like the east coast” ngl as an anthropology major this is like 90% of my classes she would honestly fit right in

Meg

When i went to gaga in london the stadium was in kind of a residential area and there was one tube stop for all the 50,000 gays and it was sooo funny seeing all the regular people just chilling next to some guy in bright pink assless chaps and fishnets

Rachel Coxon

The conversation about music artists has me thinking about the boygenius song ‘bite the hand’ and Phoebe bridgers song ‘punisher’- both bangers but also interesting reflections on how artists relate to fans - boygenius directs a camera on the crowd when they play ‘bite the hand’ on tour

alexa schnur

hal m

I hate to be that person but I think the thing going on in the ocean might be the climate changing:/ Florida waters were over 100F last week, changing temps cause a lot of changes that can makes animals brains not function properly and make different decisions than they normally do

Carlie Haunts

GUYS!!! PLEASE!!!! Aquariums and zoos are NOT inherently bad and do incredible work for research, education, and conservation!!! Please look into this. I agree animals should be free and in nature but talking down on them is not the wave!!!

hal m

^^ I've also heard from wildlife biologists (obviously everyone has different opinions but) that we put a lot of human emotions onto the idea of animals roaming free but that's really just something they have to do to keep their territories or find food. as long as they have their needs met and have enrichment and enough land to play, go to the bathroom, etc. they're pretty good

Cristina

GIRLIES! Forget about microblading! Do nano stroke instead! It’s so much more natural looking. I started doing it last year, and I’m obsessed!

baby.yogurt

okay new york landlords/property management are so so scary, I'm following someone on IG who's in the process of moving out of her building bc recently her super accused her of stealing paper towels from the building and giving them to her neighbors (which she didn't), and he angrily confronted her and got up in her face about it (she recorded this thankfully), swearing at her and calling her a bitch and everything, and then he flipped her off and punched her phone. she's in contact with legal support I think but yeah I hope she gets out soon bc what the hell!!

Anna

The real pot heads are in NYC 🤩 dad grass tastes like a regular cig to me

Allie

I have an answer for the holy water question! Christian groups who baptize in a pool probably aren’t blessing the water first because their theology of baptism tends to be more loosey goosey. Roman Catholics/Anglicans/Orthodox churches conduct baptisms in a church building using a self-contained baptismal font and part of the liturgy involves consecrating the water and making it holy. They will sometimes baptize in a living body of water, but pools aren’t really allowed. If it’s a pool baptism moment, they’re probably evangelical and don’t get hung up on formality or liturgical structure.

madeline

I’m from the Bay Area and THE PENGUINS AT MONTEREY BAY ALWAYS MAKE ME SAD TOO

LIVING for the crack baby reference

Sarah

Julia! As a New york State girlie born and raised, I have the facts. So recreational cannabis was actually legalized in 2021 in New York and legal dispensaries have JUST been starting to open up upstate this year, but its been a long tedious process for people to get retailing licenses. So the sketchy NYC weed you can buy at any random Bodega, I don't think those are legal retailers lol. It's just NYC and NYers are gonna do whatever they want lmaooo. I read an article about how illegitimate weed shops in NYC are a huge problem because there are SO many of them and the city doesn't know how to stop it! Lol. Be safe and happy smoking! Welcome to NY baby💗

Sarah

We had that in New York but they recently took that away and it's illegal :( such a fucking bummer because I don't really drink alcohol so it was really nice to have that option when I went out, as a stonestress myself

avvsies

Bro in college in 2012 on the California central coast, you’d go on WeedMaps, call a place (we had a fave place) and it was delivery only cuz it was only medicinally legal at the time and the homie named Ben would roll up with a huge briefcase thing, come right in, plop it open on our coffee table and we’d all be sitting on these frat couches passing around jars and having a sniff and then when you’d pick one and the amount, he’d take the nugs out with CHOPSTICKS and weigh them. He gave my now husband a HUGE DAB on his 21st birthday lmaoooo

Sofia Ilic

Elizaaaa I loved seeing you at CHBP 🥰

Erin

When I visited New York it smelled like weed everywhere and there was guys just selling weed on lil tables openly like I could see the weed and they were shouting like "get your weed" haha no they didn't actually say those words but they were calling people's attention like sellers in a market do haha.

Gabrielle Showalter

HI GUYS i thought i’d be in nyc this month but it turns out i won’t, so i’m selling my 2 tickets for the august 13th show in nyc!! message me for details ❤️ want them to go to a caring binchie home

Julianna Faye

lolol when i lived on the lower east side every package i ever ordered was stolen

Julia & Erica

heyy im selling my binchtopia ticket for the nyc tour 8/13!! reply if interested :)

Alexis Albert

julia you’re comparing people critiquing oppenheimer for not have people of color with kings on thrones forcing people to entertain them. it’s a huge problem that there isn’t representation of people of color in films and in media at large and to compare that to authoritarians forcing people to serve them is kind of an egregious comparison. also people are allowed to tell you they don’t like your episodes so long as it’s respectful and not blatantly cruel, it’s up to you how you choose to respond to that. part of being a host of a podcast is putting your work out there and inevitably there will be critique which is completely different from people demanding artists to make music solely curated for their tastes. i think julia poorly articulated her point on people of color in oppenheimer and im allowed to say this and critique your point because ive been invested in your show and the both of you as professionals

Tessa

FOR JULIA ON THE TOPIC OF NYC WEED. I’m a teenager in nyc and I have had my fair share of sus and or mid weed experiences from bodegas and smoke shops and, as frustrating as it is, it is legitimately better to find a plug who grows or supplies directly from a grower than to use the seemingly ample legit weed sources at your disposal. And whatever you do dont buy a pre roll in a bodega. You’re better off buying edibles from that guy with the brownies in the cigarette tray in Washington sq park. He’s actually pretty reliable and nice.

Charlie

on the subject of eliza’s grandparents!! ever since i was a kid i’ve struggled with seeing my grandparents, i’ve always just found them boring and struggled to make a connection. i think the “they’re going to die soon and you’ll regret it” argument is just as much of a guilt trip as “why won’t you hug me? don’t you love me?” after my great aunt died, i learned a bunch of cool stuff about her life that i wish i could have asked her about. of course she never thought to mention it to me, and i never thought to ask. if you want vivi to take an interest in your grandparents, i would recommend telling her about them! tell her about how they helped raise you and saved you and your dad from homelessness! tell her funny stories about them that she may not know! because reminding a child that these people are going to die isn’t going to make them easier to talk to– if anything, it might make it harder. (this is just a bit of advice from personal experience, obviously eliza isn’t vivi’s parent and can talk to her however she wants to)

Paige Elizabeth

Julia!! Bodega weed is deff not regulated in the way they are in California. There’s local laws in BK and Queens so we dont have legal dispensaries there. There are few legal dispensaries in manhattan. I use a delivery service through medlynyc you can follow them on insta and they send you a menu. They have reputable brands on there. Love u!!! Can’t wait to see y’all on Sunday!!

Mollie Edsell

Julia be careful with the NYC bodega weed!!! I’m sure you already know, but try to buy from dispensaries instead… my rec is Indoor Cannabis, they have reliable and regulated weed, there’s a location in Chelsea!

sofia

Lifesaving eyebrows tip: BEARD DYE. it’s safe for your face, it dyes ur hairs, it dyes the skin under. I do it like every 2 weeks and i always have perfect eyebrows w next to no effort. Love youuuu 💕
