Awkward Encounters
Laura J; Carrie J

1 week ago
A comedy podcast served hot, messy, & al dente. Midwestern sisters with accents thicker than our rice pudding, animated storytellers who’ll do anything for a bit, & our own target audience. Like your loud college besties who never outgrew oversharing. If you can handle the shrill laughter & secondhand embarrassment- we might just be your YETI of whiskey. Each episode is an unhinged charcuterie of real-life stories, unfiltered sisterly riffing, & Midwest charm that feels like eavesdropping. Guests? Maybe. Structure? Nah. Shame? None. Swearing? OH HELL YEAH. Dish your pasta. Mangia, baby!

Episode 8: Awkward Encounters with Turkey, Names, and more Bastard Thumbs

Welcome back to another episode of Awkward Encounters! This episode, we talk about Thanksgiving chaos, Piper's most embarrassing moments in the airport, confidently calling someone by the very wrong name, and a classic tale of bastard thumbs on social media- but this time- it wasn't Carrie.

Episode 7: Awkward Encounters at Funerals

Picking up where we left off with last episode's dark humor, Laura and Carrie manage to make funerals look more like a blooper reel. And we toss in a few tales from some other people we know who had their own awkward encounters at funerals, proving that it's not just us that should come with warning labels that read, "No Social Skills".

And because no episode is complete without a little self-dragging, Carrie walks us through several moments where her confidence was sky-high, her attitude was spicy, and the outcome was not in her favor.

Episode 6: Awkward Encounters with Dark Humor

Welcome to Awkward Encounters with Dark Humor- the episode where no one is emotionally prepared for a comedic therapy session.

Laura and Carrie are choosing dark humor with heart this week because sometimes the only way to process love, loss, and emotional demolition is to laugh.

Pull up a chair, pour a drink, and join us as we turn our tragedies into stories that make you question if you should be laughing at this. (Yes. You absolutely should.)


Email us. Follow Us. Send us your stories. Like us. And Fuck off with your bad reviews. We're too emotionally destroyed to deal with you right now.


Peace, Love, and Awkward Encounters to you all.

Episode 5: Awkward Encounters because of Bastard Thumbs

We're back from Nashville with a suitcase full of stories, pictures, and questionable interactions that make us still want to crawl under our barstools. And, Carrie slides into the DMs of a familiar face via slippery thumb and a truly cursed avatar emoji. Tune into this bonus episode for laughs, mild humiliation, and possibly the best awkward encounter to date.

Episode 2: 2 Awkward Encounters & an Arguable Instrument

We're back after a digital fiasco but coming in hot with a trifecta of Awkward Encounters! Strap in for a wifi blunder but we PROMISE you, if you get past the into, the rest is GOLD! You'll get the scoop of when Carrie makes things uncomfortable in the frozen foods aisle. Then we get the dirt on a muddy mess with a neighbor. AND FEATURING the original awkward encounter, "The Arguable Instrument". Then, Laura wraps things up with an awkward bank heist. Because, of course, everyday errands can't just be simple ones...


Don't forget! Rate, review, subscribe. AND if you've ever found yourself in a moment so awkward you have to document it and laugh about it later- send it to us at awkwardencounterspod@gmail.com so we can laugh (and cringe) with you!
