Welcome to the Twist Happy Hour, where Keryn and Kate are pouring a glass of wine and diving into the wild world of coping mechanisms. From binge eating to bad disaster movies, they're unpacking all the ways we try (and sometimes fail) to handle modern chaos. With a signature mix of humor and honesty, the hosts talk about everything from childhood fears and nostalgia to the absurdity of political discourse and social media trolling. It’s therapy...but with more wine.
🍷 Here’s what we’re talking about in this episode:
• Why disaster movies actually make us feel better
• Kate’s snack strategy: binge now, thank yourself later
• Keryn’s take on laughing through fictional chaos
• Nostalgic childhood fears and growing up doomsday-style
• The mental cost of modern politics
• Trolling, Truth Social, and trying to stay sane
• How escapism (and cocktails) help us decompress
