Are the Shelley Gang's eyes bigger than their stomachs? Literally??? Holly, Shelley, Julie, and Kellie delve into the murky waters of the Food Size industry.

Also, Julie introduces the apropos segment "She Swallowed a What?!"

Sometimes, recording sessions just don't go smoothly. Here are some behind the scenes outtakes and silly bloopers from the "Airport Shops" episode. Find out the magic chant that brings Holly back to life, and also hear some choice stories about the Chatfield Girls' mom.

Shelley Gang, we had a technical meltdown today—the talk of tchochkes able to be purchased in airports overloaded Holly's computer, so some files were lost. Therefore, right in between Holly's points, you are going to hear the song "Alibi" from Producer Corbin's band Kitestring. And after that, you're also going to hear the word "tchockes" a lot. Like, a lot. Also, in the segment "What's Your Name," the girlos find out what their Goth Lyfe names are.

....Surprise! The Chatfield Girls have thrown the Shelley Gang a surprise party! There will be squatty pottys and barf buckets and walking alone at midnight, so it's exactly the type of party that the Shelley Gang was hoping for, right? Julie tries to convince Shelley that surprise parties are awesome, and Holly vehemently disagrees with everything that is discussed in this entire episode. Sister expert Kellie sets them all straight, and Shelley presents another Million-Dollar Idea. C'mon in for a grilled cheese (but not really a grilled cheese--it's all a ploy to get you into this surprise party!).

The Chatfield Sisters wish you a "Happy Holidays" as they try and get Shelley to commit to a 12-month lease to be roommates with the Christmas movie character of her dreams. But, who is the perfect roommate? Is it a classic like Santa Claus (and will you have to live with Mrs. Claus), or is it someone a little less ubiquitous like John McClane (make sure you have him put down his deposit)? The intro is long, but worth it if you're looking for more reasons to hate Holly. And Kid Jokes makes its glorious return, with a physics twist! Stay warm out there, Shelley Gang!

To paraphrase the greatest movie ever made, "Baby Mama": Let's talk about the ancient art of karaoke. The Chatfield Girls live that diva lifestyle and impress each other by weighing the pros and cons of everyone's favorite drunk pasttime. But, the Chatfield Girls don't drink--they're just hams. Or are they? Shelley will showcase her abilities to get laughs for days.

Beware: for the first time ever, two Chatfield sisters were recording in the same room, and the audio quality is rough. The Chatfield Sisters dig deep into Shelley's psyche to find out what she really thinks about the cursed Impulse Buy section at her local grocery store. Will she agree with Holly that it's the perfect training ground for thieves, or will she lean towards Julie's argument that it's a torture chamber for parents of small children? Maybe she will side with Carlie, who tries to hypnotize Shelley during the whole episode. Also, come play the Emilio Estevez game with the Chatfield girls. They need help remembering the rules, and they could really use your assistence.

The Chatfield Girls are at it again, trying to decipher just how quickly Shelley would faint if she got a real tattoo. To circumvent the nanosecond of pain she would feel, the idea of temporary tattoos is discussed. How much does a full-sleeve temporary tattoo cost? When will the alliteration tax be repealed? And how many temporary tattoos can Julie fit into her mouth? Shelley tells us all of these answers, and more! Also, the "What's Your Name" segment is back, and this time, the Chatfield Sisters discover their old-fashioned names. Who is Kit Sullivan, and just how spunky is she? Which Chatfield sister becomes a professional neighbor? And exactly how does someone never read a horror story they have written?

What's up, Girl-Os! The Chatfield Sisters get together to talk about the shining jewel of TGIF, America's Funniest Videos! Julie tries to remind Shelley of the delightful 90s fashions and the many crotch hits of the classic TV show, and Holly argues that maybe the mean-spirited show ignored the people behind the camera. There is talk of the Chatfield Sisters merch store, as well as a surprising amount of talk about how Holly does not have a crotch. The girls introduce a new segment, based on the many delightful name generators floating around the internet, called "What's Your Name?"   And finally, the revelation about how far Julie would have gone to meet Bob Saget is revealed. Would she go "...for the red, white, and blue" or "the funny things you do"? America, America, this is you.

The five Chatfield Girls banded together to share their silliest Halloween traditions with the Shelley Gang.

Also, Holly produced this episode and has officially died and gone to heaven.

Watch out for that... DRIVE-THRU TREE! The Chatfield Girls get knee-deep in talking about roadside attractions and their attractiveness.

Shelley informs the audience about the road situations of Indonesia and other countries in the Pacific, and Julie tells the tale of the smartest dad at Dinosaur Storytime. Finally, The Chatfield Sisters Mount Rushmore is constructed, with the addition of the great lost American president: Wintson Churchill.

In the very first Bonus Pod, Holly gives a brief overview of her special Mother/Daughter trip to California. The review does not follow the typical Shelley Has Opinions pro/con outline, but it does illuminate Holly's newfound desire to silently be in places of higher learning. Plus, a shocking kiss twist is unveiled!

The Chatfield Sisters are Redlands Daily Facts famous, after their hometown newspaper wrote an article about them. Because of that, they couldn't be bothered to think of a topic that would appeal to the plebians. Holly, Julie, and Carlie try to get Shelley's opinion about room service, but in a new and interesting way: Holly gives extreme opinions on both the Yea and the Nay, and Julie offers lukewarm opinions on both sides. The Shelley Gang can learn about Julie's fear of new menu items, Carlie's #blessed hotel lifestyle, and Holly's fascination with their mom's chocolate milk opinions. Also, a new segment is born: The Emilio Estevez game.

The Chatfield Girls talk about their most controversial topic yet: should you eat the candy that you liked as a child? Holly and Kellie say yes, Julie says no—but what will Shelley say? The enthralling-from-start-to-finish conversation touches on classic Saturday morning cartoon commercials, Holly's thirst for craven cravings when she's pregnant, and Kellie's international candy preferences. We introduce a new podcast-within-a-podcast/intervention called "Julie Has Wack Opinions," as well as a new segment called "Tall Tales From Short Stacks." Join us, if you're ready to dip your toe into the sugary, sticky topic of eating candy.

Have you ever watched a Zombie Run go by and thought, "Is that for me?" The Chatfield girls weren't sure if Shelley had, so they asked her. Holly, Shelley, Julie, and Carlie discuss the ins and outs of fun runs of all sorts: eating/puking races, brightly colored races, and even races where they give you a gorilla suit to wear. The answer about Shelley's opinion really comes down to her tolerance of whimsy—can she handle it? Also, the Chatfield Girls discuss their Halloween costume ideas and Shelley schools the Shelley Gang on what it really means to waffle about a subject in her new segment, "The Gray Zone."   Join the fun and possibly even the run!

Are you a fan of remixes or are you more of an O.G.? The Chatfield Sisters bat around what a song remix is all about, and they argue about the excellence and artistry of what a remix can be. The girls uncover the origins of Kellie's childhood nicknames and the origins of their vocal impressions of their producer Corbin. Also, they investigate.... REMIX! Yo, yo, yo, this is a change-up beyond compare. Kellie Coo on the mic, with the poofy hair. Shellikins, havin' opin's, killing the game. Holly loves nicknames, and it's a crying shame. Julie does not get included in the remix rap, because she hates remixes.

Shelley is not in attendance for this episode, so we have deemed it a Shelley Gang exclusive!   Holly, Julie, Carlie, and Kellie put their heads together to come up with their favorite breakfast cereals, but do their choices match Shelley's predictions? We discuss the Lucky Charms shake at Burger King, whose nickname is "Smach," and why Shelley tattled on Holly more than any sibling has ever done before. Can any cereal get mentioned on one podcast as much as the Chatfield sisters mention Froot Loops? Finally, Carlie delivers a hard-hitting look at spittakes in the school choir.

Join the Chatfield Sisters as they try to figure out what would be the best exotic animal to have as their very own (Note: we don't condone actually owning exotic animals, but isn't it fun to dream?). The intriguing talking points include throwing peacocks on top of dilapidated houses, Absurdist theatre and its hand motions, and architecture that allows for wall-sized Giant Anaconda tanks. A new segment is introduced, and a new jingle composer is born! What animal does Shelley choose? Don't worry about it.
