This week, Kate has 3 of her friends from college on the podcast following a pilgrimage to the Shania Twain residency to talk about the things that don’t impress them much about Vegas (and all the ways Vegas is no longer impressed with them). Following their trips to Vegas at ages 25 and 30 (now here for Kate’s 35th birthday), they’ve noticed some subtle changes from their party girl days, e.g., getting rejected from a day club for having a breast pump and Kate being checked in to the hotel alongside rogue fertility advice. They discuss their weekend mishaps in restaurants, hotels, and spas, discuss the Shania concert, and then honestly review some overrated hotspots on the strip. Then, they reminisce about things like sorority trauma bonding, Kate & Jasmine’s early rivalry formed at Yearbook camp, and getting sued for downloading Aladdin on Limewire, among other memories, then finish with crowd-sourced listener “don’t impress me” moments. Enjoy!

0:43.4 | I've reminded that we really don't talk enough about how Shania Twain melodically would |
0:48.4 | flip gender roles, like to say on their stetsons. |
0:52.0 | And the 90s women of country music, you know, maybe cowgirls, but they don't beat a dead |

0:58.2 | There's a subtlety to their approach. |

1:05.9 | But when Shania Twain came on the scene, even though, you know, the country, western, |
1:08.8 | all-American, rockless country, you know, you are from Canada, but it's chill. |
1:13.5 | You know, her songs, any man of mine and Honey I'm Home have always been so important |

1:22.3 | And I wanted to go to the Shania Twain residency so bad and it ended this weekend in Vegas. |
1:28.2 | And I was like, hell yeah. |
