Just Entertainment today! The Ladies dish big time about the gross excess and conspicuous consumption of the Bezos-Sanchez wedding. Natch, the Kardahsians were all there, even though they weren't all initially invited. Momager said she wouldn't go unless the whole fam got invites...oh no she didn't...Oh, YES SHE DID! The nerve! The newst Golden Bachelor might be a real douche. His lady picks have a severe age limit. It should be a ...

A guy wants to marry the AI Chatbot he created. Not kidding. The Ladies Who Question wonder what his human partner thinks about that. The latest invention from the Japanese is one we, and Mother Earth, will greatly benefit from daily. Big money does not class make. Jeff Bezos knows no bounds. His wedding is giving Lisë and Holli major ick for being over the top and gaudy. Seriously, should anybody have that much money? The Karen R...

Surprises, sweet and sour, at the American Music Awards got the #ladieswhoquestion talking. The Karen Read Trial gets more and more mysterious. This is one whodunnit that may never get solved. What is crypto, who "mines" it, and what does that mean? Lise is befuddled by the entire concept, giving her a big old headache. And, Da'Pope gets an eponymous brewski at a Chicago brewpub. Belly up to the bar at Chicago's Bruning Bush Brewer...

Chicago's Dust Storm blew through the city like a swarm of locusts last week, and we are still cleaning up. It was simply bizarre. Check Holli's video on our Insta. Lise got her second Shingrix vaccine and says the pain will be worth it. That Karen Read Trial just got interesting, and we have some deets. Can you imagine being 10 years old and in college? No kidding, A little girl on the West Coast will soon be on the Stanford campu...

The world is a ball of confusion! So naturally, #ladieswhoquestion turn to Nostradamus, the all-knowing Seer from the Middle Ages, to discover the future. Doesn’t everyone? Nostradamus lived in the Middle Ages, and his writings are still referenced and pored over for a hint of future happenings. It’s kinda spooky and also kinda cool. Plus, there is a ton of volcanic and seismic activity heating up around the country. Holli has som...

The Wrigley Goose has blown the bleachers. You say you haven’t heard this animal story? Tune in, it’s kinda cute. Holli follows up to recount episodes 1-3 of the Netflix show, Adolescence, and it’s riveting, truly a must-see for any parent with young kids. The #ladieswhoquestion are puzzled that Blake Lively is on Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential list. And, to cap off the week, a lovely story about a small-town community coming...
