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.

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.

Over Coachella, Revolve’s Sh*tshow Festival, & Leave Rihanna Alone
Tuning in live from sunny Los Angeles, Talia and Alexis start this week’s ep with a debrief of life on the west coast. Is LA really a shitty heaven and NYC a fun hell? They weigh the pros and cons. Then onto the Vibe Check: Coachella. Talia tapped out of the famed festival this year, but Alexis was there for the full experience—and hated it. Alexis shares what it’s actually like being there (yes, she gives all the deets about Revolve Fest, AKA the new Fyre Festival), and she and Talia get into how Coachella’s become pretty cheugy. Then onto a voicemail about not liking your brother’s GF—don’t worry, Talia and Alexis help problem-solve. They wrap up with a Roast It or Toast It about the *totally fake* Rihanna and A$AP cheating rumor. Can’t pregnant celebs just get a break?
