Show Notes
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.

More from Delusional Diaries
after four years of never missing a Thursday, Halley and Jaz are taking their first ever summer break… and honestly, this episode feels exactly like hanging out with them one last time before everyone disappears for the season. Halley's Hampton's house is finally done, her she-shed is getting turned into a backyard bar (Reed wants to call it Bar Dog, which makes complete sense), and she had a bridal hair trial where she basically had to beg her stylist to make her look messier. all very Halley Kate Core.
this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are back, but they’re not alone. Greta is also back behind the mic after all the love the first time around… but this time, they're still riding the high from their trip to Korea and Tokyo with enough stories, inside jokes, and energy to prove they absolutely should have started podcasting from abroad. from salmon sperm eye treatments that may or may not have done anything, to hand-sculpted Korean nail charms that sparked stranger conversations back home than any engagement ring ever could; this episode kicks off exactly how a good episode should: zero filter, zero agenda, and covering everything.
this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are fully entering their summer era, and with that comes a lot of opinions. from Solidcore drama and influencer gym etiquette to the devastating loss of Cava’s tahini caesar dressing, the girls navigate through the internet discourse that becomes way too personal, a bit too quickly. between marathon training updates from Reed and Kevin, sauna purchases, Hamptons nesting, and debates about post-run meals, the episode is basically one long chaotic life update in the best way possible.
this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are fresh off their Asia trip and immediately back in their element, debriefing everything from chaotic weather mood swings in New York to the reality of traveling on your period (spoiler: humbling). it starts as a light catch-up and quickly turns into a very unfiltered deep dive into period horror stories, tampon trauma, and the ongoing birth control debate, where they get honest about their own experiences, the internet’s fear-mongering, and why you really have to figure out what works for your own body.
this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are back on the couch catching up on everything from Invisalign lisps and New York City overstimulation to brutal hangovers, Disney adult magic, and the chaos of spring in the city. the girls get real about adjusting to life in New York, how constant noise and overstimulation can weirdly become comforting, and why moving there can feel like both a dream and a nightmare. Jaz shares her unexpectedly perfect Disney World trip filled with lucky girl syndrome, short lines, and peach Dole Whip obsession & so much more!
