Okay, so it's been over a month since my last update, and for that, I apologize. It's nearing the end of the semester at my university, and my school work has sky rocketed. Honestly, I didn't think I would get the chance to post until April or May, but I recently made a new discovery, and I just had to share.

I've never been a big listener of podcasts. I like to have visuals when absorbing content (I'm not a fan of audio books, either). I have trouble paying attention. Almost every time I try to listen to a podcast, I end up drifting away, and working on something else. Eventually, ten minutes will pass, and I'm like, "wait, what are they talking about?" So, whenever I come across a podcast that is so interesting that it's able to keep my attention for a full hour, I fall in love. Before today, only This American Life and Psychobabble had that power, but finally a new bit of audio has made its way onto my phone.

Meet the LadyGang, a new(ish) podcast featuring actress Becca Tobin, TV personality Keltie Knight, and designer Jac Vanek. According to their website, LadyGang is a podcast "inspired by our bottomless mimosa brunches, each week a celebrity guest joins the girls for a raw, honest, and hilarious look at what life is really like under the bright lights of Hollywood. Guests will help the girl gang answer life's burning questions from listeners in #AskTheLadyGang and share their unapologetic stories about stumbling through womanhood."

The podcast just released its 17th episode, featuring actor-singer-musican, Darren Criss. Anyone that knows me is well aware of my love for Darren Criss, so, of course, I had to give the show a listen. I was interested to find that this was a "special" episode of the podcast, as the show almost exclusively features woman; however, two of the three hosts are good friends with Criss, so they made an exception. The ladies asked Criss intense questions about his feelings toward social media and sex, and about his experiences working with Becca on the popular TV show, Glee. One of the best (and funniest) segments of the show was when the hosts and guest played a game of "Do or Don't," in which Keltie would ask a question, and everyone would answer whether it's something they advise someone should or should not do. Darren, especially, seemed to have trouble with the game, as he kept wanting to retaliate with other questions or give in depth reasons for all of his answers.

The show is a fun, laid back, sleepover-style conversion for those that love to talk gossip, fashion, food, and so much more. Or as the LadyGang's tag line says, "Ice cream binges, late night texts, quarter life crises, and all the sex."

Join the "fempire," and get the podcast on iTunes.
