it is New Year’s Eve, and in this episode of Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz catch up after a rough holiday stretch, unpacking everything from being violently sick with the flu to navigating grief, canceled plans, and the strange emotional whiplash that comes with the end of the year. they reflect on Christmas not going as expected, the loneliness that can creep in during downtime, and how loss puts everything into perspective, even when you don’t quite know what to say or feel. from there, the girls spiral into their classic b**ching hour, one last time for 2025: why shopping in Aritzia should be classified as an extreme sport, why sidewalk etiquette in New York is apparently a lost art, and the internet’s obsession with correcting women in relationships. they also get candid about online comments, ownership, boundaries, and why saying “we” doesn’t suddenly erase a woman’s independence or accomplishments. the episode wraps with a chaotic but heartfelt 2025 recap: favorite songs, trips, outfits, purchases, crash-outs, and milestones, along with reflections on female friendship, partnership vs. best friendship, and why having your person in different forms matters. we’re closing the year exactly as we lived it: honest, imperfect, and surrounded by the people who make it survivable. if this year humbled you, broke you open, or changed you forever, this episode is for you.

it’s Christmas, and here at Delusional Diaries, we’re not forcing a festive mood or pretending life magically slows down for the holidays. Halley and Jaz sit in the in-between space: post-travel, end-of-year, slightly exhausted, and talk through everything that didn’t go exactly as planned. from luxury trips that felt underwhelming, to honeymoons that turned out to be longer than needed, they unpack expectations versus reality and what it actually means to know yourself well enough to opt out. the conversation naturally drifts into internet chaos and strong opinions, covering viral pranks, influencer etiquette, filming in workout classes, and the exhausting double standards women are constantly navigating online. they also get honest about holiday logistics in relationships: doing holidays apart, family traditions, engagement pressure, and why choosing what works for you can feel uncomfortable but necessary this time of year. to close it out, the episode turns reflective without getting sentimental. the girls talk end-of-year wins, mental health growth, unexpected emotions around marriage and pregnancy tests, blocks of the week, friendship moments, and a fast-food sauce crusade that somehow feels like a small Christmas miracle. it’s messy, real, funny, and grounding, exactly the kind of episode you want on while the holiday noise dies down and you finally get a minute to breathe.  Timestamps  0:21 - Happy to be back   5:28 - Jaz’s honeymoon  9:24 - Need to get this off my chest  15:06 - This year’s wins  24:35 - Block of the week  38:05 - Rude influencers  47:40 - Squishmellows and Wendy’s 53:48 - Sleep schedules  Links Chime: chime.com/diaries  More of Delusional Diaries Podcast: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcast Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@Delusionaldiariespodcast Substack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/ Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/ See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz sit down with Mel Robbins. Mel Robbins is a bestselling author, one of the most sought-after motivational speakers in the world, and the host of The Mel Robbins Podcast. She is known for translating complex psychological research into practical tools people can actually use, including the Five Second Rule, the High Five Habit, and the Let Them theory. Her work has helped millions build confidence, reduce anxiety, and take ownership of their lives through simple, science-backed strategies. The three are behind the mic for a grounded, honest conversation about emotional regulation, boundaries, and what it actually takes to reclaim your sense of control. Mel breaks down the thinking behind her Let Them theory and explains why so much of our stress comes from trying to manage other people’s emotions, reactions, and expectations. Together, they explore how letting go of control doesn’t mean indifference, it means responsibility. Mel shares practical tools for handling anxiety, navigating conflict without self-abandonment, and responding to emotional triggers with clarity instead of impulse. The conversation moves beyond surface-level self-help and into the real work of tolerating discomfort, sitting with difficult emotions, and choosing responses that align with your values. This episode is for anyone who feels emotionally drained, overly reactive, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. It’s a reminder that peace isn’t passive… it’s built through awareness, boundaries, and the decision to take your power back, one moment at a time.

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz kick things off with absolute chaos: from navigating the most unserious New York notary experience imaginable to selling a house, demolishing walls for a bed that simply refuses to fit, and surviving the stress of home renovations. they get into holiday plans, solo Thanksgivings, and why Thanksgiving food might just be the most overrated meal of the year. plus, Halley shares the full story behind adopting her fourth dog, the emotional rollercoaster of rescue life, and an unexpected escape-artist pup. the girls dive deep into your questions about dating, long distance, and the fear of being single forever, especially in big cities. they unpack why effort actually matters in love, how to enjoy single seasons without rushing the timeline, and why people are allowed to change their minds even when it hurts. from imposter syndrome and career confidence to cutting people out of your life without dragging things out, this episode blends brutal honesty with real-world advice you can actually use. they also tackle controversial wedding dilemmas, stay-at-home dad dynamics, tricky in-law boundaries, and what it really means to protect your peace as you level up in life. whether you’re navigating relationships, career doubts, friendships that no longer serve you, or just need a comforting listen that feels like FaceTiming your best friends: this episode is raw, reflective, funny, and painfully relatable.

this thanksgiving, we’re thankful for friendship! Maddie is back, and this episode is dedicated to the event of the season: the bachelorette in Cabo. we break down everything: Maddie’s favorite parts, the lingerie gifting, the unhinged itinerary, the emotional chaos of wedding planning spilling into vacation mode, and how stressful it can be when all of your friends from different stages of lives intertwine. between premarital counseling, kosher food tastings, and Pinterest-induced wedding anxiety, she entered Cabo needing a release, and she absolutely got one. because what happens in Cabo… comes back to haunt us in this podcast. from puking and rallying to the now-historic booty-shaking competition win (yes, sandals flying, knees bleeding, all that), the girls take us moment-by-moment through the funniest and most feral 48 hours of Maddie’s life. the Mango Deck saga deserves its own documentary, and we’re giving it the airtime it deserves. but behind the tequila and chaos is the real heart of the episode: girlhood, growing up, and holding on to your friendships as life shifts. we talk about seeing your friends get loved the way they deserve, combining families, outgrowing old versions of yourself, and the fear of realizing the club nights don’t last forever. this episode is feral, emotional, nostalgic, and iconic… a love letter to friendship, weddings, and the bachelorette weekend we’ll be talking about for the rest of our lives.

after two weeks of nonstop travel, Halley and Jaz are finally back! from Maddie’s Cabo bachelorette to the Hero Cosmetics brand trip, BravoCon, Vegas chaos, last-minute hair appointments, and zero sleep, the girls recap every single detail. they talk friendship dynamics on brand trips, meeting creators IRL, social battery burnout, and the universal experience of needing a vacation after your vacation. once home, life doesn’t slow down… the girls dive into TikTok drama: from the viral Hair by Chrissy saga to the debate over kids’ skincare, the Angel Tree controversy, and the internet’s obsession with turning everything into a moral war. they also chat about holidays, honeymoon plans, Meadow Lane grocery store mania, picking wedding guest dresses, and the art of drinking on vacation vs. drinking in NYC when the vibes take over. there’s also talk of growing up, how their timelines for marriage and kids have changed, the importance of independence before motherhood, and whether “never fighting” in a relationship is actually a red flag. of course, it wouldn’t be Delusional Diaries without a little b**ching hour, some blocks of the week, a rant about TSA stealing hair extension pliers, and haters commenting on pregnancy jokes and eyebrows. the girls wrap up with plans for the Christmas market, Patreon updates, and a reminder that their men now hang out completely by choice… proof that girl friendships really do build communities.  Timestamps  0:20 - Cabo then Vegas then LA  9:55 - Thanksgiving plans  14:28 - Big things on the internet  28:01 - Meadow Lane opened  31:27 - How we thought life would play out  32:10 - Fights vs arguments vs conversations  38:57 - Bitching hour  44:09- Christmas market and Patreon Links Uncommon Goods - uncommongoods.com/diaries for 15% off ZocDoc - zocdoc.com/diaries See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

it’s another chaotic week on Delusional Diaries! the girls are packing for back-to-back trips, from Maddie’s Cabo bachelorette to a very convenient brand trip that just so happens to be in Cabo. they talk bachelorettes, friend group dynamics, and why mixing people from different chapters of your life is always a wild experiment. from party floors destroyed by heels to the great “SATC shoe debate,” they reflect on their Halloween weekend, the aftermath of too much tequila, and how hangovers hit way harder now, sparking a full conversation about growing out of the “every weekend” phase and choosing soft life nights in over blacking out. they also come to their shared realization that maybe mocktails shouldn’t cost the same as cocktails.  the episode takes its usual chaotic turn with a cozy winter rant: daylight savings depression and the girls’ love-hate relationship with the holidays. they get into pop culture deep dives, from Lily Allen and David Harbour drama to People’s Sexiest Man Alive and the celebrity edits they can’t stop watching. by the end, they’re debating whether singers are ever sexy, laughing at actor crushes, and ending on the most unserious note possible: Halley watching football on a plane just to calm her anxiety. it’s unfiltered, funny, and weirdly therapeutic: just two girls overthinking life, love, and pop culture with zero structure and maximum serotonin.

after the travel day from hell, Halley and Jaz are back in New York, and they’re back behind the mic to tell the tale. this week’s episode of Delusional Diaries takes you inside their 12-hour flight delay, Detroit detour, and the chaotic mission to make it home in time for their Halloween party. from near meltdowns at TSA to accidentally exiting the airport mid-delay (rookie mistake), the girls relive every delusional moment with unfiltered honesty and way too much laughter. once they finally touch down, it’s back to business: 36 bottles of tequila delivered at 7 a.m., party prep chaos, and a rare beauty event that turned into a bidding war against Benny Blanco (spoiler: they lost). between horror travel stories, spray tan small talk, and gym class trauma, Halley and Jaz unpack the kind of week that makes you question your sanity and still somehow laugh about it. they wrap up with some classic chaos: friendship growth, separate bedrooms in marriage, childhood lies, and the eternal debate: do you ever really “go to bed angry”? it’s the perfect mix of airline rage, emotional regulation, and delusional girl therapy. buckle up (literally), this one’s turbulence from start to finish.

It’s Halloween on Delusional Diaries… which means cheap wigs, chaos, and way too many confessions. Halley and Jaz kick off the episode dressed as the Timothée Chalamet x Pete Davidson SNL duo, spiraling about bedside manner, Yelp reviews, and why bad Amazon wigs might actually be a cursed tradition at this point. From Jaz’s Bottega meltdown in Madrid (and the boldest “move forward” gaslight ever) to Halley’s questionable life choices that somehow always work out in her favor, the girls are in their unfiltered storytelling era. They’re talking eating dog treats out of desperation, blocking trolls with “almond daughter” usernames, and why sharing snacks with your boyfriend should be considered psychological warfare. Then it’s Halloween nostalgia, space cowgirl flashbacks, and a few hot takes about certain activities in the shower, bad costumes, and the “stay in for your future husband” pick-me epidemic. Whether you’re getting ready to go out tonight or staying in with a bottle of wine, this episode will have you laughing, cringing, and texting your best friend mid-listen.

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz unpack a rollercoaster of chaos: from mourning a literal sauce that was discontinued to a rundown of their time at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show pink carpet. this episode mixes glam & the chaos of the real world like never before, showing that at the end of the day, we all go through the same things, despite our differences. the girls then switch gears to other territories: fitness routines and solidcore playlists. between botox updates, home renovations, and pink carpet glam, Halley and Jaz reflect on how surreal it is to be front row at a fashion show one minute and crying in an elevator the next. that’s real life, and they’re not sugarcoating any of it. they wrap the episode with some tough-love advice for a listener whose best friend can’t stop obsessing over her ex. the verdict? you can’t save someone who doesn’t want to be saved.

after some tough days separated from each other, this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are back and as unfiltered as ever: kicking things off with workout confessions, liposuction ultimatums, and the anxiety-inducing chaos of showing up late to a class for the first time ever. between accountability pacts and post-gym soreness, the girls dive into the unglamorous side of “getting it together” while keeping it real (and hilarious) about body image, burnout, and self-motivation. then, things get storytime-level juicy: Halley recaps her dreamy trip across London and Copenhagen, complete with vintage shopping, hotel surprises, and airport drama that had her going to war (verbally) with line-cutters. Jaz shares her TSA horror story and why sometimes principle is all that matters, while both reflect on love, long-distance friendship, and more… rounding it out, the girls get chatty about Kris Jenner’s facelift, the return of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, and the never-ending New York winter blues. from AI conspiracies to apartment glow-ups and kitchen haters, it’s a full catch-up episode of chaos, confidence, and everything you could dream of: the ultimate comfort listen for anyone who loves a good rant, a little delusion, and a lot of laughter!

Halley and Jaz are back on the couch and kicking off with a classic b**ching hour, and this one gets personal. after an awkward follower encounter at the grocery store turns into an unsolicited reddit recap, Jaz opens up about how far she’s come in setting boundaries with online chatter, and how quickly a stranger can send her spiraling back into old habits. from the weirdness of parasocial relationships to realizing how exhausting constant public perception can be, the girls talk anxiety, attention, and why sometimes it’s okay to say “I don’t owe anyone a response.” the chaos continues as Jaz discovers the power (and curse) of coffee, and the duo spiral into caffeine-induced madness. between late-night hangouts that accidentally turn into 3 a.m. adventures, sensory phobias of bumpy pumpkins, and fall weekend recaps, it’s peak Delusional Diaries energy, a little bit manic, a little too honest, and somehow still therapeutic. but it’s not all rants and pumpkin panic, Halley’s prepping for a dreamy Europe trip through London and beyond, Jaz is plotting a honeymoon redo after her first attempt, and both are reflecting on independence, relationships, and what it means to actually grow up online. by the end, they’ve covered everything from medical insurance meltdowns to squishmallow basements: proving once again that delusion, some b**ching, friendship, and a good laugh can fix just about anything.

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are back with the full rollercoaster of chaos, starting with skincare gone wrong, brutal hangovers, and a weekend that tested both of them in very different ways. from dinner disasters at BondST and open bar temptations at Danielle’s birthday party to the unplanned detour that landed them at a club until 3 a.m., the girls recap every messy, hilarious detail. whether it’s falling asleep in Ubers, being gaslit about their location, or surviving on cookies, nothing is off-limits in this episode. in between the laughs, the girls get real about health, healing, and the weird seasons life throws at you. Halley opens up about her continued journey with an autoimmune disease, steroids, and IV treatments, sharing the frustrating side effects, the weight changes, and the challenge of finding stability while staying optimistic. together, the girls navigate what it means to balance wellness with wanting to live life fully, reminding listeners that even in the hard moments, humor and honesty go a long way. rounding out the episode, Halley and Jaz dive into everything from underwear revelations and blocking negativity online to reflecting on the “mystery” of being single versus the stability of relationships. they laugh about their timeline of friendship, plot out solidcore challenges with Birkin bets, and even debate whether Jaz’s moving obsession is just a love for having projects. this episode is delusional, it’s dramatic, and it’s deeply relatable; the perfect mix that we know you love in an episode of our podcast.

Halley and Jaz are finally back on the couch after a whirlwind couple of weeks, and this episode doesn’t hold back. Halley shares the full story of her week-long hospital stay after a brutal ulcerative colitis flare-up that left her in constant pain and doubting herself. from gaslighting her own symptoms to finally realizing she needed urgent care, she opens up about the mental toll of chronic illness, the long nights in the ER, and the fear of potentially losing her colon. the episode balances heavy and hilarious as Halley recounts absurd hospital moments: nurses melting plastic into her food, the fight for a private room, and doctors giving her conflicting diet advice. Jaz keeps the energy steady, while also finding humor in the chaos. together, they highlight what it’s really like to navigate a health crisis, from anxiety spirals to unexpected gratitude when the right medication finally works. but it’s not all hospitals and IV drips. as the besties dive back into their usual blend of life updates and pop culture chatter: golf trips to Wisconsin, moving drama, TikTok spirals, Kylie Jenner lip combos, and the possibility of seeing Justin Bieber headline Coachella. it’s an episode that feels raw, real, and ridiculous: a mix of health diaries, best friend therapy, and the kind of unfiltered chaos that makes Delusional Diaries your favorite.

This week, Halley and Jaz are back behind the mic, but they’re not alone. If you’ve been rocking with Delusional Diaries since the early days, you already know her (and probably love her). And if you don’t… allow us to introduce: Eli Rallo. Writer, content creator, podcast host, professional rule-maker, and queen of saying exactly what we’re all thinking. Eli first blew up on TikTok with her iconic “the jarr” videos, and since then she’s built a ride-or-die community obsessed with her mix of humor, honesty, and that big sister who tells it like it is energy. Oh, and casual flex, she’s already the author of two books with a third on the way. From reminiscing about their “freshman class” days in the New York influencer scene to catching up on weddings, book tours, and everything in between, this episode feels like a full-circle moment. The trio dives into the realities of growing up online, from cringing at old videos to learning to feel confident in your late 20s. They also swap stories about early event-hopping nights, the evolution of their careers, and the misconceptions people have about friendship changes. Of course, there’s plenty of wedding talk, Taylor Swift engagement theories, and the sacred art of being perfectly “wedding drunk.” Eli opens up about writing her second book, the emotional process behind it, and the exciting leap into fiction with her upcoming third. It’s an episode filled with nostalgia, laughter, and honesty, proof that every era of life brings its own kind of magic. If you missed her, it’s time to catch up. If you’re new, you’re about to fall in love. Either way — this episode is one for the books.

Halley and Jaz are back behind the mics, and this week’s episode is giving full chaotic bestie energy. what starts as a tiny texting disagreement spirals into a hilarious deep dive on friendship etiquette, unread messages, and why “one sec” almost never means one second. if you’ve ever wanted to scream at your friends through the phone, you’re going to feel very seen. but of course, it wouldn’t be Delusional Diaries without some unhinged detours. between questionable snack choices, roommate horror stories, and a rant or two about unsolicited opinions, the girls manage to turn even the most random topics into comedy gold. somewhere in the middle of the chaos, there are moments of raw honesty about health, moods, and how to stay sane when life insists on being annoying. by the end, you’ll feel like you’ve been on FaceTime with your two funniest (and most brutally honest) friends. from pop culture hot takes to delusional rants that will have you laughing out loud, this episode is messy, dramatic, and exactly the kind of therapy session you didn’t know you needed. buckle up, press play, and enjoy.

Jaz jokes about becoming a bodyguard, Halley debates whether it will be a mega-celebrity event or a secret ceremony, and both of them can’t help but laugh at just how invested they’ve become in a couple they’ve never met. from there, the conversation flows into a whirlwind of personal updates. Jaz vents about the chaos of her home renovations, accidentally sending the most questionable texts to her contractor, and realizing just how much fences cost in Long Island. health takes center stage as well as Halley navigates her workout routine and spray tan obsession, and as the two debate TikTok’s “pale girl exposure therapy” trend, listeners get a raw and hilarious look at how they balance wellness, vanity, and everything in between. as always, the episode is packed with their signature hilarious banter. they go off about awkward gynecologist appointments, friendship trio politics when it comes to picking a maid of honor, a specific chaotic experience at a bathhouse that ended in no massage, and the bizarre etiquette breaches they’ve witnessed at influencer events like the US Open. add in puppy potty-training wins and the iconic story of Halley accidentally doubting herself about James Marsden literally living across the street, and you’ve got a jam-packed episode full of laughter, relatability, and the kind of storytelling only Halley and Jaz can deliver.

Halley and Jaz are back this week with a jam-packed episode that swings from fair food to full-on meltdowns. Jaz shares her whirlwind trip to Alaska for the state fair, complete with nostalgia, fried food, and accidentally getting the best sleep of her life in a bunk bed. meanwhile, the two catch up on home life, debating bed sizes, dogs hogging the sheets, and how to actually get a night of rest in New York City. the conversation takes a raw turn when Halley opens up about her ulcerative colitis and recent colonoscopy. from the stress of prepping, to her full-blown panic at the hospital, to adjusting to new medications, she doesn’t hold back about how draining chronic illness can be. Jaz balances things out with her never-ending food cravings, late-night kitchen raids, and even considering Ozempic just to quiet the “food noise.” also, the girls spiral over Camp Rock versus Camp Star, rant about bizarre internet drama, Jaz’s dog’s very unfortunate medical moment, and of course dive into Taylor Swift theories and the very infamous podcast appearance. this episode is chaotic, it’s candid, and it’s exactly the kind of unfiltered girl talk you come here for every week.

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz kick things off with a hilarious deep dive into Halley’s ongoing coffee conspiracy. After her viral latte video, she’s convinced her local shop is purposely sabotaging her order: burnt espresso, missing flavors, the works. from Uber Eats hacks to wondering if the baristas secretly hate her, it’s a full caffeine-fueled saga that sets the tone for the episode’s blend of comedy and chaos. the conversation spirals into astrology, creative burnout, and a bit of a look into the realities of influencer life. the girls get real about how nonstop travel, brand deals, and constant pressure to create can drain inspiration, while also reflecting on how much their lives have evolved since they started. they open up about balancing relationships, fighting scarcity mindsets, and handling criticism from people who say they’ve “changed.” it’s like something inbetween a vent session and candid insight into what it’s really like behind the curated feeds. to wrap things up, they switch gears with nostalgic back-to-school memories, playground favorites, and even the rise and fall of silly bandz and Webkinz. plus, they answer a listener dilemma about guy best friends crossing the line and imagine the ultimate “day from hell” itinerary in New York City. from childhood flashbacks to savage hypotheticals, this episode is messy, unfiltered, and oh-so Delusional Diaries.
