The And Also Podcast

It’s officially our one-year anniversary episode! In this very special episode, hosts Sheyda Fasari, Madeline Guinee, and Summer Edeen pop some Prosecco and get nostalgic about the chaos we’ve created together.
We’re celebrating 28 episodes of unfiltered conversations, questionable decisions, heartfelt moments, and the slow, hilarious journey of figuring out who we are behind the mic. From finding our voices to surviving social media to navigating the growing pains of building something we love, the girls look back on all the moments that shaped this first year.
We share our favorite memories, the lessons that slapped us in the face, the behind-the-scenes stories you’ve never heard, and the realities of podcasting — the fun parts, the messy parts, and the parts where we wondered what on earth we were doing. And of course, we talk about the community that’s turned into our internet friend group.
Whether you’ve been here since episode one or you just joined the group chat, grab a drink, get cozy, and celebrate with us. One year down — so many unhinged episodes to go.

Welcome back to the And Also Podcast — your weekly reminder that gratitude and chaos can absolutely coexist.
This week, Summer, Sheyda, and Madeline are deep in their Thanksgiving era, talking traditions, blackout Wednesday lore, family drama, and why everyone seems to be running a 5K they never actually signed up for. From rattlesnake Easter stories to embarrassing bar-crawl run-ins, the girls cover every unhinged pre-holiday ritual.
Then things get cozy and reflective as they dive into what gratitude really looks like — the brain science, the mindset shift, the hard seasons, and the moments that change you. They unpack family dynamics, growing pains, therapy breakthroughs, and the art of finding joy even when life is messy. There are real tears, real laughs, and real talk about community, healing, and becoming your favorite version of yourself.
Whether you're cooking, hiding from your relatives, or hungover in sweatpants and a dress at the same time, this episode feels like sitting around the table with your funniest, most grounded friends.
Grab a drink, grab a plate, and come be grateful (and slightly delusional) with us. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for more episodes!

Welcome back to the And Also Podcast your weekly mix of love stories, questionable decisions, and way too much honesty.
This week, Summer, Sheyda, and Madeline catch up on everything from dating disasters to emotional growth (and yes, sometimes those overlap). Sheyda shares her latest boat date turned sunscreen fiasco and introduces us to the concept of “pair and spare” dating. Summer’s fresh off a Portland trip full of niche adventures and new perspectives, and somehow we end up debating love languages, compatibility, and why communication is both the problem and the solution.
Then it’s time for chaos with a side of judgment as we dive into some “Am I the Asshole?” stories.. one about a newly single pregnant woman moving back home, and another that’s got us all suspicious of a husband’s “totally innocent” ex situation.
It’s a little messy, a little heartfelt, and completely unfiltered, just the way we like it.

Welcome back to the And Also Podcast, where conflict resolution meets chaos management.
This week, Summer, Sheyda, and Madeline are talking about fighting — the kind that ruins your day, fixes your friendships, and makes you say “I swear I’m fine” through gritted teeth. It all kicks off with Sheyda’s birthday recap (and the perfect gift from Summer), then some talk about tchotchke’s before going into how the girls argue, make up, and occasionally spiral.
Sheyda’s deep in her self-discovery era, Madeline’s nesting like it’s a sport, and Summer’s… well, she’s being Summer. Together they unpack what healthy communication actually looks like, why avoiding conflict always backfires, and how to stand your ground without losing your cool (or your friends).
It’s messy, it’s honest, it’s kind of therapeutic, and somehow still hilarious. Grab your drink and come fight with us (lovingly).

Beth Higney Co-Founder of Complexion is in the house! 
The girls sit down with their Nashville friend turned med-spa maven to talk all things beauty, business, and Botox. From starting a company right before a global pandemic, to juggling motherhood, to the horror stories of overfilled cheeks and sketchy TikTok treatments… nothing is off the table. 
 
They get into filler drama, skincare myths, phthalates (yep, the scary stuff in your candles and perfumes), and why men secretly make the best clients.
 
Basically: this episode is your crash course in esthetics, friendship, and laughing at your own “pillow face” fears.
 
About Beth:
Beth Higney embraces both the science and art of dermatology, encouraging her patients to implement a proactive and preventative approach to aging gracefully.

Welcome back to the And Also Podcast, where saying no is out, saying yes is in, and flaking on plans is considered a sport. 
This week, we spiral into a hilariously honest debate about why our generation has become allergic to leaving the couch. From bailing on concerts to romanticizing cozy nights in, we explore the epidemic of saying no… and why it might be ruining our social lives (and our shot at Red Door potato salad). 
We confess our most dramatic flake moments, roast each other’s homebody eras, and argue about whether relationships make you boring or just really into pajamas. There’s talk of village-building, Kindle-at-the-bar fantasies, and the chaos of aging while trying to keep friends, find love, and still make it to the 6 a.m. workout.
So pour some wine, put on the bra (or don’t), and come be part of our cozy little chaos cult. Because life is short and apparently, so is Summer’s attention span.

Welcome back to the And Also Podcast, where “cozy girls night” energy quickly spirals into spilled wine, dog pee on the carpet, and toxic confessions we probably shouldn’t be making on the internet.  This week, me Summar Edeen, Sheyda Fasari, and Madeline Guinee kick things off with a drinking game that guarantees chaos - sip if you say literally, change your mind mid-debate, or if we all agree on something.
From low-rise jeans and Survivor weight-loss strategies, to the worst kisses of all time (spittle included), the group chat vs. notes app debate, and a round of “who’s the most high maintenance?” that ends exactly how you’d think. Nothing is off limits. We even confess the most toxic things we’ve ever done in relationships, share the wildest/weirdest hookup locations, and argue about whether it’s worse to date someone obsessed with their dog or someone who doesn’t like dogs at all. Basically, it’s chaos with a side of honesty, and Stuart the dog trying to hijack the show.
So grab your drink, play along with the rules, and get ready for an episode that’s equal parts unhinged, embarrassing, and weirdly relatable.

This week, we are deep-diving into the ever-chaotic, occasionally cursed, always confusing world of modern dating. From hot takes on hookup culture to the psychosis of swiping while emotionally spiraling, nothing is off-limits. Nashville’s transient dating pool, gym crush ethics, and why men should be legally required to approach women with confidence. Yeah, we went there.
We’re unpacking the mental gymnastics of the “roster era,” the false promise of dating apps, and the tiny digital checkmarks that send us over the edge. There’s also a passionate PSA about the art of dropping the handkerchief, a CrossFit ambush at the park, and a group debate about whether Love Island is actually the most accurate reflection of today’s dating scene (spoiler: it might be).
Expect emotional chaos, sharp commentary, and the kind of best friend banter that will make you text your group chat mid-episode.
Rate & review if you laughed, cried, or deleted Hinge during this episode. Follow us on socials, slide into our DMs (unless you're sending the checkmark), and welcome back to the collective spiral.
