Summary
This week, Dex spills all the details of her anti-aging skincare routine — and let's just say, it's not for anyone on a budget. If you thought that was crazy, wait till you hear her skincare goals inspired by Paris Hilton. From luxury serums to three-hour facials, Dex already has her regimen mapped out for when she hits that "Kim K money" era. Carla can't stop laughing (or calculating the price tag).
Then, in the spirit of Halloween, we get into some real-life scary stories. We unpack the shocking case of Sakiyna Thompson, recently convicted of murdering her romantic rival, Kayla Hodgson, in a cross-state crime of passion. Carla, who shares her own cringe-worthy tales of confronting "the other woman" back in the day — and let's just say, it didn't go as planned.
Finally, things take a futuristic (and spicy) turn as we react to OpenAI's bombshell announcement: starting December 2025, ChatGPT will allow erotic content for verified adult users. Sam Altman says it's all about user autonomy and responsible AI — but we aren't so sure. Will this new feature empower women or open a whole new can of digital drama?
Tune in for the laughs, the side-eye, and our thoughts on bots gone wild.
