- Episode 97: State of the Haley AddressMay 16, 2017 · 49 minEGF Co-Host/Mommy Haley is now more empty and less of a girlfriend than ever. This episode takes you & EGF Daddy (Christie) through her recent journey from being sexually assaulted two month ago, her stay at an Acute Psych Ward in Los Angeles, her biggest break-up yet, being diagnosed with Bi-Polar disorder, discovering the disease of alcoholism within, and the lead-up to shaving her head (and her brief "I-Am-A-Tiger" phase). It's a very intimate conversation freckled with intermittent outbursts of laughter throughout, leaning on humor as a coping mechanism as per the EGF usual. We hope Haley's self-care path gives you some inspiration to continue along your own, to speak up, or at least laugh into that empty void for little while together. We love you from the bottom our weird, winding, wistful hearts. Suffer with dignity, we are warriors of compassion.

Cheryl and Haley have known each other for about 10 years and their bizarre humor and love make this ep is chillingly sleep-overy. We get into the Matrix REAL QUICK and the deep issues behind the men we love and the shitty music they may like. Haley and Cheryl also confide in your sweet EGFer's earhole the HORRIBLE incident Haley put themselves through while having a supposedly "lovely" walk on the beach when an old school racial slur crept it's way into the oceanside conversation. Enjoy this episode hopefully half as much as Haley & Cheryl enjoy each other (THEY'RE LOVE IS SICKENING AND IMMORTAL). Cheryl is a dope-ass chef and her music choice is CHOICE as fuck. Note: the term "FUCKASS" is a term of endearment. We love you!! More than you NEED OR COULD EVER WANT. XOXOXO

This week's episode is just as juicy as it is tender, in EVERY definition of those words. Christie hopped on a jet-plane and B-lined it to her long, lost, and ONLY true love, Haley (OF COURSE), and they swiftly swept up the unassuming & wonderfully hilarious L.A.-based comedian, Richard Bain, into their scary EGF white van, and took him to Haley's make-shift podcastuary to PODCAST IRL WITH HIS FRESH HEARTACHE TOTALLY EXPOSED right outside of his very manly CHEST. He was, to be frank, an absolute delight. And a pandora's box of lovely honesty. He no-holds-barred in letting us into his tumultuous (and sexy) love journey, and we'll forever be grateful for that. TAKE THIS SWEET, FANTASTIC, FUNNY-as-F*CK MAN INTO YOUR LOVING ARMS! And follow his comedy while you're at it! It's truly a transformative experience -- Twitter & instagram: @DickBain We love you. We're sorry we're not sorry, so deal with it. XOXOXOXOXO
