Show Notes
This week on the What We Said Podcast, Chelsey opens up about being pregnant and some of the struggles that have come along with it, from feeling sick and exhausted to navigating such a huge life change while still trying to show up for her three boys at home. The girls talk honestly about the parts of pregnancy people don’t always prepare you for, how isolating it can feel at times, and the pressure to still “do it all” while your body is constantly changing. We end with a reminder from Jaci that you don’t need a perfect patio layout or tablescape to host people this summer. Sometimes the best memories come from simply inviting people over, even when the backyard is only half done.

More from What We Said
New month, new what? That’s right, new favorites! Fall is the focus of this episode, with cozy recipes and book recommendations perfect for the season. Jaci and Chelsey also share the lip and facial products they’ve been loving lately, plus some Dancing with the Stars talk for good measure. There’s something to cover all your bases if you’ve been itching to switch up your routine this October. If you have something you can’t live without lately, let us know! We just might mention it when November rolls around.
An all time favorite here at the What We Said Podcast, Jaci and Chelsey are back with more ghosting stories. Every story was submitted by listeners like YOU, and in a shocking turn of events for 2026, the Valley girls are just as guilty as the men! They’re reading about ghosting guys even when there was a spark and leaving them wondering where they went wrong, even when the excuse was a literal medical emergency. An out of town trip accidentally ends in a shared hotel room (which sounds like the start of a fun romcom) but actually ends in abrupt silence. There’s also a cheating man left stranded and waiting for a bus. Some of these disappearances were deserved and others were outright brutal, but they’re all equally scary when you’re the one left on read.
If you know Jaci and Chelsey, you know one of their favorite activities is cozying up to watch an episode of Catfished. This week, you can join them as they read never before shared stories from people who thought they knew who they were talking to, only to realize they’d been getting punked the entire time, sometimes for YEARS. There’s an innocent mother living out her Mamma Mia! dreams, only to have them crushed when she arrives in Europe. Snapchat friends turn into identity theft enemies, Facetune fueling a fake Instagram profile, and many more. Trust no one, reverse image search everything, and please FaceTime before booking the flight ladies.
Jaci and Chelsey kick things off with a recap of Jaci’s trip to Yosemite, followed by Chelsey’s latest Diamondbacks game and how hard it’s been to be an Arizona sports fan lately. The conversation then takes a serious turn as they discuss the tragic situation at Cornell University, where a group of fraternity brothers altered a young woman’s life forever. The girls reflect on what needs to change about the way we’re raising boys and the importance of holding all men accountable.
We’re officially back to regularly scheduled programming with this month’s installment of advice! Creepy comments about a toddler’s hair coming in, an overbearing mom leaving footprints all over her daughter’s social media, and a very taboo workplace crush — all dilemmas submitted by you, the listeners. Jaci and Chelsey are here to talk through it all and give their best Valley girl advice. Have a burning question of your own? Submit it today for a chance to be featured next month!
