Quick correction & the movie to watch for next week!!

It's summer, and you know what that means. Time to wear white pants, eat ice cream, yearn after a summer fling, and listen to the sweet sounds of gossip on Babe Patrol Season Three.

Hop on the Hot Goss Express next stop Woo Town, Busybodies! This week the Babes bring you juice straight out of The Vatican (Ashley has been there), give you a glimpse into some troubles in Hall and Oates paradise, an update on our old pal Armie Hammer (who is still not Channing Potatum, but don't try to tell Lauren that), and bring you back to good 'ol seacoast for some dish on the local scene. And of course, be sure to hang onto your tangible assets while Ashley and Lauren commune with their ornithological oracles, dig into some new dating profiles, and ponder the age-old question: How many Larry Davids is too many Larry Davids?

Hellllooo busybodies! Did you miss us as much as we missed you? We hope so, because starting next Tuesday we will be back with a whole new season of gossip, dating nightmares, and lovely lovely guests. Have gossip to share?

It's the finale of Season One, and Steph is here with us to close out our gossipy, juicy, manic first season! We love all of you for being such staunch fans and true tea-spillers over these 32 weeks!!! In this final ep, Ashley downloads the Nextdoor app and finds a local thread dedicated to whether or not we answer our doors, prompting Steph to enthusiastically explain, "I LOVE answering the door!" However, not all locals agree, and at least one local pushes "the vegan agenda." Lauren, similarly, brings us some delightful updates from South Berwick online shenanigans, including plans for a South Berwick ANTHEM. PS--if anybody knows anything about the twisty slide that used to be at the Central School, we want to know about it. And Steph brings us a local story about the city of Portsmouth destroying the Love Locks!! Love is dead in Portsmouth! In true Babe Patrol fashion, and for the FIRST TIME this season, we did something screwy with the audio equipment & somehow cut out our green flags this week, so stay tuned for next season to find out what those maybe could have been! We also discuss hard launches vs soft launches, the perils of Disney adults, spelling our names differently in middle school (is this a canon event?), and Rodney Dangerfield. Though this is our season finale, we plan to see you soon!! As always, visual aids, supporting documents, & Top Secret files are on our IG feed.

It's our penultimate, next-to-last season one episode, busybodies, and yes, we're gossiping about the orcas. Lauren does a deep dive (so to speak) about our fave aquatic communists.

The babes discuss the importance of the Crush Nickname, a TikTokker who finally discovers Ashley's "boundary of prude," and the perils of talking about sex with a partner.

It's tin hat time again on Babe Patrol! Ashley takes us through some of the many conspiracy theories surrounding the Denver Airport.

What kind of animal would you want to be a zookeeper for? Lauren says capybaras. Ashley wants something slow and docile. Or a crocodile. Today on the pod, the babes gossip about Princess Anne's foiled kidnapping attempt in which they use the word "ALLEGEDLY" a lot, and Lauren brings Ashley some workplace drama from the ZOO. A quick correction: the royal insignia was only on ONE side of the limo, fyi. They have an in-depth discussion of how and when they swipe, and talk about the time a busybody tried to hit Ashley with her car. ICONIC. Ashley puts the local Starbucks on blast, acts like a fool, and then realized, when listening back to this episode, that she sounds like she is on speed because LIKELY the re-made Americano was not decaf!!! You'll understand once you listen. Enjoy Lauren's description of "shopping for men," and the movies that make the babes cry.

First off, THE CALIFORNIA RAISINS ARE NOT ON THE BIG CHILL SOUNDTRACK. Ashley issues this formal apology. Otherwise, this episode is chock-a-block full of gossips, both local and national. The Coronation, the Meghan/Harry car chase, Taylor Swift's new rat boy boyfriend, a fire at the Days Inn in Kittery, the Elizabeth Holmes NYT profile, a SoBo parrot update, an "active glass situation" at Whole Foods, and the South Berwick mystery of "The Boom."

Who would you want to play you in the movie of your life? Lauren contemplates this question in today's episode. She also delivers a "flight of workplace gossips," at least one of which will nearly kill you. Cringe City, USA, Population: Us. Ashley shares two newsworthy gossips, including the NJ Pasta Incident, which many of you requested, and an orgasm at the opera house.

They discuss a dating prompt answer that unveils a little AI/bot situation.

WE MADE 25 EPISODES. This episode is loose, busybodies, so prepare for some tangents. But first, Ashley brings us a small gossip about a legacy chiropractor beauty queen. And Lauren tells us ALL about a sperm donor who can't stop donating in a story we've called "The Deported Inseminators." They view a pro-gun profile of a dude Lauren describes as "alt-right meets Morrissey," and Lauren's profile view this week sparks a meaty discussion about worth ethic, labor rights, and a quote we THOUGHT was from James Baldwin, but wasn't. Flags include gifs and embellished jeans, vegetables and sex talk. Tangents include our multi-watch comfort movies, the Practical Magic house, beige foods, Gap scents from the 90s, and we return to Lauren's favorite new segment: Just the Tip.

One of the hallmarks of local gossip is local politics, and today the babes are joined by local politico former Somersworth city councilor, Crystal Paradis! Lauren and Ashley have, respectively, referred to her as "our Amy Poehler" and "the Spiritual Mayor of Somersworth," and both monikers ring true. Crystal talks with the babes about her time in the Somersworth City Council, her infamous Somersworth mayoral race, and the Portsmouth parking plan that started it all. Crystal obliquely mentions a little gossip that you'll have to look up on your own, and otherwise they talk surfing, the wlw dating app Lex, and the beautiful story of how Crystal met her delightful wife-to-be, Angie. And finally, they do a roundtable of red & green flags. Lots of local color in this episode! As always, visual aids, supporting documents, & Top Secret files are on our IG feed.

Steph joins the babes again this week to discuss the results of their Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator tests. Turns out Steph & Ashley are twinsies, and rare af. Also, it turns out that all of them--Steph, Lauren, and Ashley--were basically defense lawyers as children. They gossip about Ashley's landlords and make up a completely ridiculous story with absolutely baseless claims, and Lauren brings a memory of an absolute RAGEfest of a restaurant customer and her embarrassing Yelp review!

On today's episode, we welcome the absolute delight: Rob Loucks! Rob is an artist, DJ, cloud enthusiast, and very bad hockey player. He's currently living in Boise, ID where he has been desperately trying to learn how to make incense from tree sap, and tame his anxiety. He gossips with us about the Idaho bumper sticker scene, a sexting situation that made Ashley gag, and a multi-decade MYSTERY NOTE that Lauren got while she and Rob were in art school together. Rob teaches us about Ravy Gravy, secret languages in the gay community, "The Grid", and the elite green flag man outfit. Lauren & Ashley wax rhapsodic about gay cowboys on the range until Rob brings them back to life, back to re-al-ity. And then we all complain about mountain biking. Enjoy!!!

We talk about gossip as a political tool, Lauren's liberal use of exclamation points to fool the patriarchy, the hotness of John Goodman, friendships between men, and finally, the eternal question: would we swipe the good way on Guy Fieri or Anthony Bourdain? Spoiler alert--Ashley likes both of them even while choosing chefs as her red flag this week. Unbelievable! As always: visual aids, supporting documents, and Top Secret files are on our IG feed.

How many dead bodies have you kissed, anyway? In this week's episode, we share some Irish Catholic funeral goss, and take you on an aural "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride" of tantalizing tangents: social mores around kissing a dead body (or as producer, Steph, lovingly refers to it: "the final kiss"), Hare Krishna chanting, Ashley's first vibrator, Twin Peaks, Babe Patrol's Official Cookie, and the perils of Jack Kerouac...to name a few.
