Delusional Diaries

Latest Episodes:

you’ve changed (and that’s okay) Aug 21, 2025

Show notes

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.

Show notes

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz take you through a whirlwind of updates, laughs, and a little chaos. from Jaz’s candid talk about body changes and jean sizes to Halley’s Montauk staycation complete with beach views, shark sightings, and wild Hampton crowds, they share all their recent shenanigans… they also share why their Costa Rica trip got canceled, swap stories about festival life, Jaz fresh from Lollapalooza, and break down the extremes fans go to for barricade spots. between packed coffee shop lines, overpriced party tickets, and Surf Lodge’s impossible entry rules, the girls keep it real about what’s worth the hype and what’s not.

the episode then dives into the realities of influencer life, as they discuss why people hold creators to a higher standard than their own friends and the bizarre nitpicks that show up in comment sections. from defending a lighthearted dog joke to tackling the “no benefit of the doubt” culture online, Halley and Jaz aren’t afraid to call out the double standards they face. they also touch on messy friendship politics: like suddenly seeing your ex-friend post with someone they used to trash...

of course, it wouldn’t be Delusional Diaries without a crash-out rant or two. Jaz unleashes on West Elm’s customer service nightmare, and her newest addition to her family. there’s also talk of vision checks without insurance, LASIK horror and success stories, and mutual squeamishness over needles. it’s a full ride of personal drama, lighthearted banter, and the kind of unfiltered storytelling that makes you feel like you’re in the room with them!

getting it together, together Aug 07, 2025

Show notes

if you’ve ever felt like you’re one meltdown away from a wellness era or two iced coffees into a spiral, this episode is going to be your comfort zone. Delusional Diaries returns with the kind of unfiltered conversations that cover everything from habit-building and hot girl workouts to that deeply relatable sense of “i’m trying, but also… i’m tired.” it’s less self-improvement and more self-awareness (with a side of Diet Coke).

Halley & Jaz get real about the intersection of health, stress, and identity, peeling back the curtain on what it’s like to navigate chronic illness while keeping up appearances. there’s talk of gut issues, liquid diets, and the emotional toll of feeling “off” in a world that expects you to be on. but somehow, it’s still funny, because vulnerability and sarcasm go hand in hand here.

and naturally, things derail in the best way: from irrational fears (reborn dolls, anyone?) to the politics of bridesmaid dresses, twins, minivans, and blacking out at weddings, it’s the usual delusional chaos, full of tangents, truths, and the kind of late-night debates only best friends can have. tune in, spiral with us, and feel like you’re one of us in this first episode of august

botox, babies & bad decisions Jul 31, 2025

Show notes

in this week’s episode, Halley and Jaz are breaking down SO MANY TOPICS: starting with the viral TikTok comments about pregnancy rumors and a spontaneous ear bleed (yes, you read that right). the girls deep-dive into the messy world of gender reveals, pregnancy expectations, and the irrational emotional rollercoaster of wanting a baby… eventually. from Botox updates to debating if it’s ever okay to be disappointed by your baby’s gender, they dish it all with their signature mix of honesty and humor.

then it gets a bit unhinged, in the best way possible, as they unpack the internet’s latest obsession: the woman who stole $1300 worth of goods from Target and said, “I’ll just pay now.” this naturally leads to Halley and Jaz sharing their own teen stealing confessions, Jaz’s traumatic memory of being the first-ever Target customer in Alaska, and a spiral into the chaotic world of retail stories and their teenage jobs. Plus: the ongoing saga of their Pickle closets, unsolicited DMs, and influencer pet peeves.

to wrap it up, the duo dive into their chaotic travel updates, Jaz’s terrifying solo flight on a mini plane, and their excitement (and exhaustion) over upcoming plans. from Costa Rica content trips to fall cravings, puppy fever, HR cheating scandals, and Justice store memories: you’ll laugh, reminisce, and relate to every second. as always, it’s real, delusional, and completely unforgettable.

everywhere but home Jul 24, 2025

Show notes

Halley and Jaz are back: with way too much to catch up on. from summer travel whiplash to an exciting (but mysterious) Costa Rica work trip, they’re trying to slow down… but obviously, that’s not happening. they recap Halley’s Europe adventures, reflect on hosting everyone except themselves all summer, and spiral over how there are somehow only eight weekends of summer left. (how did that happen?)

naturally, the convo devolves into a full Love Island debrief. spoiler alert: they don’t trust the producers, they’ve got big opinions on Nic and Olandria, and yes, they’re still obsessed with Amaya. they also get deep about cancel culture, double standards between men and women, childhood bedroom redesigns, babysitting horror stories, sneaky Rite Aid thefts, and why college dorming should honestly be illegal. ALSO: a lot of your questions get answered, and the answers are JUICY!

this episode is a chaotic cocktail of nostalgia, unfiltered advice, and friendship rants with a side of sassiness & tea-spilling. it’s everything you didn’t know you needed: just press play and let the rollercoaster begin.

mid-july adventures Jul 17, 2025

Show notes

this week on delusional diaries, halley and jaz are back and buzzier than ever… literally fresh off getting their ears re-pierced and botox topped off (because, duh). they’re taking you inside the chaos of their lives lately: wimbledon, pimm’s, why jaz is officially back on her “freeze my face” era…

but that’s just the beginning. halley spills all the details on her eurotrip-esque paris + london adventure, from chaotic eurostar nightmares to staying at the ritz, plus yes, we finally get the tea on why reed didn’t propose

the girls also reflect on aging, looking hot at 50, married life weirdness, family holiday traditions (including an accidental thanksgiving meltdown, oops), and the constant struggle of being hot and hyper-analyzed on camera.

botox? yes. wimbledon? yes. almost crying at the train station? also yes. this episode is everything you could wish for…

hot takes in the hamptons Jul 10, 2025

Show notes

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are in the Hamptons with fresh summer cuts and full of 4th of July energy. the episode kicks off with a much-needed hair update and a debate over who really has the shorter cut. spoiler: no one actually knows what an inch is. they swap stories about childhood holiday traditions, chaotic firework moments, and working family fair booths.

they also dive deep into their own anxious inner child moments, like waking your mom up at 2AM and silently praying you wouldn’t get screamed at, and share a few reflections on religion, OCD tendencies, and growing empathy for their moms now that they’re older. it’s equal parts hilarious and weirdly healing.

of course, it wouldn’t be a Delusional Diaries episode without some breaking down of reality TV and whatnot. the girls go in on the current Love Island season, debating who’s real, who’s fake, and who’s getting done dirty by editing. throw in some blackout flashbacks, boat day dreams, and home renovation updates, and you’ve got the ultimate summer chaos.

neighbors everywhere Jul 03, 2025

Show notes

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are recording from the Hamptons (!!) and taking you inside their whirlwind of adulting chaos, dream purchases, and so much more. from Jaz buying her literal dream car (a vintage yellow beetle, those who know, know) to co-owning a BOAT with Halley (yep, you read that right), the girls are leaning all the way into their main character lives. they talk about dream dates, anxiety meds, getting boat licenses, and how they’re basically chosen family now.

on top of that, a very special Tulum recap, the most unhinged hangover stories, and why Halley fought Amex customer service with the wrath of a thousand suns. and if you’ve ever wondered whether these two could survive in a war? that gets answered too (kinda). this is one of those episodes you won’t wanna miss…

reintroducing ourselves Jun 19, 2025

Show notes

this week, the episode starts with Halley and Jaz’s opinions on having a right to know where an influencer stands when it comes to politics and current events. the girls then take it way back to the beginning. in a full-circle episode of delusional diaries, Halley and Jaz get reflective as they walk through how this entire journey started—from Jaz in Alaska and Halley in Virginia to becoming best friends, content creators, and now co-hosts of a podcast that spirals weekly.

whether you’ve been here since day one or just joined the delusional crew, this episode is perfect to get to know Halley & Jaz. peak friendship, peak chaos, and exactly the kind of spiral you’ll want in your ears all week.
