Friendship That Hits Different (and Why So Many Women Are Lonely)
Welcome to the very first episode of Talk Sht and Laugh—your new favorite podcast for bold women, real friendship, and wildly honest conversation.* We’re Sarah Walton and Michele Wang—two longtime best friends who know what it means to show up for each other, ride out the chaos, and still find a way to laugh through it all. In this kickoff episode, we’re sharing the raw, funny, and gratitude-filled story of how we met, why we became friends, and what’s kept us together through decades of life, loss, reinvention, and (let’s be honest) questionable fashion choices. We talk about: The early days of our friendship (cringe and fun included) Why deep friendships are so rare—and so needed The loneliness epidemic among women (especially over 40) What we’ve learned about building connection that lasts Why we started this podcast for YOU If you’ve ever felt like the odd one out, like everyone else has a group chat you weren’t invited to, or like you're just craving some real damn conversation, you’re not alone.

We’re Sarah Walton and Michele Wang, two 50-something women who’ve been friends for over 25 years—and all we really want to do is talk some sh*t and laugh our asses off. Not everything has to be “a breakthrough” or “next-level” or “the 5-step path to becoming your best self."
We promise you: no important lessons will be taught and no deep dives will be taken.
We’re officially overwhelmed and drowning with all the self-help, get-better information out there and frankly we’re at full capacity.
We just want to hang out and we want nothing more than for you to join us.
So welcome to Talk Sh*t and Laugh (TSAL)—a weekly podcast for women, where two lifelong friends, talk about all the random sh*t rolling around in their heads.
We’re tired of pretending we’re fine, sick of fixing ourselves, and deeply craving something real.
We promise:
No important lessons will be taught
No gratuitous self-help
Just wildly honest conversations about the things keeping us up at night... or making us snort-laugh.
We talk friendship, aging, health, relationships, reinvention, midlife identity crises (plural), and the deeply underrated power of laughing your damn face off—even when the topics are heavy.
We won’t always know what we’re talking about next. But that’s kind of the magic. It’s real, it’s heartfelt, and it’s unfiltered—like the group chat you actually want to be in.
Whether you’re cooking, commuting, or hiding in your bathroom (or pantry) for a few minutes of peace—TSAL is here to remind you that you’re not alone—and you're definitely not done.
Subscribe now, pour yourself something fabulous, and join this community to talk sh*t and laugh.
Welcome. We’re so freaking glad you’re here.
