Check it all out at dirtyfunbox.com! We were fucking STOKED to have council member Kate Burke sit down and chat with us! Since she is such a busy woman, we dove right into it while shoving donuts and coffee down our gullets.  Lara rehashes her first strip club experience (complete with lap dance). Kate recounts how a sports injury changed her life in high school and changed her focus from basketball to giving back to her community, launching her into an extensive volunteer history. She's worked with underprivileged kids, people experiencing homelessness, and also spent a summer working on a Vermont farm. Seeing the gap between resources and the people that need them the most led Burke to the world of politics and policy. She became a session aide for Senator Andy Billig and is a current Spokane council member. She dishes about na

On our 27th episode, Alisha and Lara are joined by Robbi and Patrick, the founders/creators of Solace. Solace is the transition assistance app that provides information and resources to guide transgender people through their journey and help track their progress. Robbie and Patrick set out to create something that will provide legitimate resources and education to help those in transition. The app will also encompass medical, legal, and lifestyle aspects. They are deep in fundraising and looking for volunteers! We also dive into the history of Robbi and Patrick meeting before Robbi's political campaign in 2018, and Alisha professes her undying love for Attorney General Bob Ferguson.

Episode 25 excerpt: "Get there and do the helicopter, honey." We hit the big 2-5! We were lucky enough to have such an amazing guest to celebrate this milestone with us. Carla Hendrickson is a model, a dancer, a student, a cosmetologist, and to top it off, she's raising two kids by her DAMN SELF. We discuss being shitty teenagers, Carla's experience in modeling and exotic dancing, and what it's like raising both a son and daughter as such.

Episde 24 excerpt: "I really feel like we don't need to be punching down, ever. Like, there's so much that you can make everyone laugh with and you don't need to be tearing someone down." On our 24th episode, we sit down with Annica Clements Eagle, founder of the Spokane Punderground and world-ranked pun master in 2016 and 2017. Her punstory originates in Dad jokes and evolves to actual punning and improv. She shares her experiences in the local stand-up/improv scene, the toxicity that comes with it (SHOCKER!), and recites her world-ranking #MeToo pun. It's amazing and you NEED to hear it.

That's right - special guest Janice is back and we drink lots and lots of gin Bloody Marys in solidarity and celebration of Janice having been gin-free the last 10 months. We talk at length about her cute ass new baby, male circumcision, and she takes us on a WILD tale about an ancestry DNA test that ends in a mysterious new family member. We also discuss drag queens in libraries and laugh at the people that want to keep them out of these public spaces.

Episode 20 excerpt: "Just be aware of people's stories and people's mental state." We're getting a leg up on Mental Health Awareness Month with our special guest, Thessaly! TBH, you should all be talking about mental health year-around, but we thoroughly appreciated and were so, so moved by listening to Thessaly's story and her own mental health journey. This is not a light episode by any means, but is one of our most important. We cannot express how much we were in awe of our guest and being able to chat with her.

Sorry folks but Drunch has been hijacked by the ladies of CRUNCH! Crunch Nasty and Crunch Elliott have kidnapped Alisha and Lara with the assistance of the #1 Crunch Master, Big Crunchin'. Listen in as Alisha and Lara get tortured by a heckin' crunch. But seriously, if you have misophonia, please don't listen to this episode. We won't be upset at all.

Episode 18 excerpt: "Your asshole is beautiful and I'd like to see it." Our very first guest, Megs, joins us one year later to talk 'bout our buttholes! We discuss butthole hygiene, societal expectations of a presentable butthole, AND Alisha and Lara stare down the abysses of their own buttholes for the VERY. FIRST. TIME (separately, of course)!

Episode 16 excerpt: (with aggression), "Plato can jack me off." With the help of our special guest (and lots of vodka and apple juice), Drunch tries out a new shakshuka recipe! Originating in North Africa, shakshuka is a traditional Israeli dish of baked eggs atop a bed of delicious, spicy, saucy goodness. Get you some pita or challah bread to sop it uppp. We talk to the fabulously cool Michelle about being a Stage 3 breast cancer survivor, compare our astrology signs, Hogwarts houses, and Meyers-Briggs personalities, weird Instagram expectations, and shitty old white dude philosophers. It was truly a joy chatting with her and we hope you feel the same!

Episode 16 excerpt: "If we want to see change, we have to start by the people that are closest to us. We always talk about other people changing or trying to change the world, but we think about it externally, like out in the world. But we can start having an impact within our own social circles." We were so delighted to have Norma from NARAL join us for some delish omelets and mimosas! She is so impressive and a force of nature - the Eastern Washington chapter of NARAL is so, so lucky to have her as their community organizer. We talked a lot about the importance of resources such as NARAL and Planned Parenthood being available, how to identify crisis pregnancy centers (that aren't an actual help at all), and the future of NARAL.

AKA the vajayjay, poontang, cooter, pussy, muff, pink taco, a rose (by any other name would smell as sweet)... We're celebrating this year's extra special, lovey dovey, sickly sweet, capitalistic holiday that serves no actual purpose by quizzing one straight dude and one gay dude to see who knows more about vaginas, their functions, and the reproductive system*. We fed our victims...we mean...special guests Jordan and Terry some superpower brainfood to get their brain cells going, in the form of a tater tot breakfast casserole, complete with a whole ass pound of bacon and heaps of cheese (Jordan forgot his dairy pill at home, but soldiered on anyway like a gotdamn champ). *we acknowledge that not all womxn have vaginas, not all who have vaginas are womxn. We at Drunch try to be inclusive AF and believe in intersectional fem

Episode 14 excerpt: "I've literally told him I was going to slit his throat, and I was asleep." Our dank ass biscuits and gravy make a return with the lovely and wonderful local comic and artist, Missy Narrance! We discuss the local comedy scene, the do's and don'ts of strip clubs.

Episode 13 excerpt: "It's this perfect balance between batshit crazy and far enough to suspend belief. Like, it's that perfect little zone where you're like, 'I believe this, but I know it couldn't happen." The lovely Ms. Rylie is back for part deux of her special double episode! She fed our tumtums with eggs, hashbrowns, and cheesy grits, and as our food digested Rylie shares an awkward urinary analysis story, we discuss what we'd actually do during a purge, and trade harrowing stories of deadly Renaissance faires.

Episode 12 excerpt: "So why can't burping and farting be just like every other body function? Like, we cough, we sneeze, we hiccup. Like, those are all the same category." Episode 12: Self-proclaimed podcast virgin and actual registered dietitian (she has degrees and everythang), our lovely wonderful friend, Michelle, joins us as we discuss healthy bowel movements, karate farting (it's a thing), disordered eating, the importance of loving ourselves, and so many more exhilarating topics! As for feeding our mouth holes, we took some eggs, hash browns, ham, bell peppers and make a whole scramble out of it. Pairs well with stout or other dark beer. Carb it up, baby!
