Bad Vibes

Bad Vibes from Betches Media is a podcast for a new generation. Hosts Talia Lichtstein and Alexis Barber are here to tell it like it is and talk some sh*t. If you can’t get enough of social media but you’re sick of everyone on it, this podcast is 100% for you. They’re coming for everything you love (and everything you love to hate). No one on the internet is safe. Feel free to listen, or just hate listen. We don’t really care which.

Our Hosts

Talia Lichtstein

Talia is a Manhattan-based internet personality hailing from Los Angeles, CA. After graduating from UC Berkeley in 2021, she became known on TikTok as the antidote for “toxic positivity,” having first gone viral for bluntly and unapologetically sharing only her most negative opinions.

Alexis Barber

Alexis Barber is a full-time Content Strategist and part-time Content Creator based in Brooklyn, NY. After graduating from Northwestern University in 2020, she moved to New York to pursue her big tech career. When she isn't working, devouring pop culture news, or styling outfits, she can be found redecorating her apartment and micromanaging her schedule.

Where to Start

No More Bad Vibes

Today’s episode starts with the end. Yup, some v sad news—this is the final episode of Bad Vibes. Talia and Alexis cover all your q’s and explain why it’s time to say farewell (don’t worry, they’re still best friends IRL), before giving their weekly life update, one last time. Then a listener voicemail about pushing away the need for external validation. We’ve all felt insecure, and Talia and Alexis share their personal experiences on that ~self love journey~. Lastly, some final rounds of Roast It or Toast It: Elon Musk bought Twitter (literally why) and Bad Vibes itself (they rate their podcast experience). What can you expect from the end? Some tears and a lot of ily’s.

Talia and Alexis cover all your q’s and explain why it’s time to say farewell (don’t worry, they’re still best friends IRL), before giving their weekly life update, one last time. But they’re not about leave without talking some sh*t and naming some names—AKA what they do best. First up, they address all the Tinx drama. Tune in for the backstory, the debrief, and of course, the hot takes. Then a listener voicemail about pushing away the need for external validation. We’ve all felt insecure, and Talia and Alexis share their personal experiences on that ~self love journey~. Lastly, some final rounds of Roast It or Toast It: Elon Musk bought Twitter (literally why) and Bad Vibes itself (they rate their podcast experience). What can you expect from the end? Some tears and a lot of ily’s.

It’s Complicated: Family Holidays Edition

She’s back (covid, that is). Today’s ep takes place at home, since Alexis is unfortunately positive. Talia, however, is positively negative, and has actually never had the ‘rona (as far as she knows). Alexis hopes she’ll get over the virus just in time for Coachella, which sparks a convo about the famed festival (including some of Talia’s *wild* mems). Then onto this week’s Vibe Check, all about family holidays. The consensus? It’s complicated—Alexis and Talia break it down. They wrap up with a quick chat about all things celeb news: Britney Spears’ pregnancy (they literally find out mid show), Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz’s wedding, and J.Lo and Ben Affleck’s *latest* engagement. Stay tuned for next week’s pod, which will be live from sunny CA.
