    F.A.B. Podcast X Bellies & Bullshit: Podcast Love
    Oct 21 2026
    This week, F.A.B. sits down with Brion and D-Matt, hosts of Bellies & Bullshit, an Indianapolis-based podcast known for its unfiltered conversations on current events, relationships, sports, and everyday life, all with a healthy dose of fun and BS. The guys share how the show got its start, the story behind its name, and how an internet radio station grew into a platform for conversation, community, iconic block parties, and so much more. Then, Moni and Kat get to know the guys a little better with some fun icebreakers, but the questions don't stop there. Things get especially interesting when the fellas turn their attention to Kat's dating life and the question on everyone's mind: why is she single? It's local podcast love, connection, honest conversation, and a little bullshit, just the way F.A.B. likes it. Cheers!

    Moni & Kat discuss: Burnout, Beauty, and Ballots
    Oct 15 2026
    This week, Moni and Kat are catching up on another Fake A$$ episode, talking about the ongoing struggle to do less, stress less, and actually make it happen. The ladies share what they’ve been watching, including the new A Different World series, Our Flag Means Death, and Lanterns, while discussing the online discourse surrounding Jasmine Guy’s appearance at 64 and the challenges of aging as a woman.The conversation also turns to a widely discussed article by Nikole Hannah-Jones, creator of The 1619 Project, about her decision to send her daughter to public school in New York City. The ladies discuss the education system, school choice, and the complicated decisions parents face when trying to balance their beliefs about educational equity with what they want for their own children.And before they wrap things up, Moni and Kat remind listeners that the midterm elections are coming up and encourage everyone to get informed, make their voices heard, and get out and vote! It’s another casual catch up filled with pop culture, real-life reflections, and the kinds of conversations that happen when our hosts get together. Because the book club may be fake, but the talk is always real! Cheers!

  • Roasting, Reads, and Reality Checks

    Roasting, Reads, and Reality Checks
    Sep 16 2026
    This week, there is no book, but there is plenty to talk about! Kat takes the ladies inside her current love affair with Threads and tackles some of the conversations, debates, and current events that have been keeping her scrolling. From the NFL dating scammer, to Green Lantern casting debates, and more! The ladies also discuss roasting as an important part of the culture and how being read, teased, and lovingly called out is not always about being mean. Sometimes humor is how we engage with each other, learn to laugh at ourselves, and get an honest reminder that none of us are above criticism. Tap in for a fun conversation! Cheers.

    Moni and Kat discuss Dress Codes, Drug Rings, & Dolly
    Sep 2 2026
    This week, F.A.B. was fake in the best way. Our hosts talk Law Roach, Ziwe, RuPaul’s Drag Race, and Project Runway, then get into the Tuskegee dress code controversy and the very different conversation surrounding Penn State’s cocaine ring. What do these stories say about what we choose to focus on in college, and what we ignore? The ladies also talk about the serious issue of SA on college campuses, gush over the incomparable Dolly Parton and her incredible legacy, and close things out by remembering Tim Curry, Hayden Panettiere, and Dolly Parton. Cheers!
