Still Buffering

Happy New New! To celebrate the start of a brand new year, we're talking about our resolutions! You know, those things that everyone talks about but most people forget about by February? Well, we're going over all those hip teen resolutions, as well as what 90s kids should make their resolutions? Is this really a thing? Oh well, let's find out!

Sadly, the holiday season has come to a close, but thankfully we're still in that weird stretch of days where we're all still acting like it's a holiday break! Since our littlest sister has come home for the first time after being away at school, we're going all in on what it truly means to be a back home baller and come home. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

It's the holiday season, which means it's that time of year where everyone remembers that "Baby It's Cold Outside" is kind of a problematic song and we all discuss why, so we wanted to join! We also talk about all of our favorite and not so favorite songs and the dreaded Wham-aggedon. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

HE'S BACK! Our Christmas King has returned and we're here to talk aalll about that royal wedding. We still aren't sure how the royal lineage works in Aldovia or what meat jelly is or why Emily isn't queen but here we are, one whole year later, ready to tackle these issues with you. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Our oldest sister is traveling this week, so we've replaced her with our mom! The holiday season has arrived once again, so we're helping you come up with the perfect gift list for your teen in your life! Some of them may be a little out of date, but they're teen gifts all the same! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Well, it's Thanksgiving, but we wanted to give you something to listen to so you can recover from all of those conversations you had to have probably about politics or something with your family. So we're talking about bras! And underwear! And hats for breastfeeding moms! Wait, what? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

The sisters are joined by a VERY special guest this week, Hank Green! Rileigh has attempted in the past to share her knowledge of Youtube, but this week we've brought in an expert who can teach us ALL about kids who make bank off slime videos and maybe what Team 10 really is? Also, go check out his new book, "An Absolutely Remarkable Thing" and get tickets to come see all of us at PodCon in January! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

All we have to say this week is GO VOTE! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

The spooky season has come to a close, but before we depart from this most wonderful time of year, we want to talk about trick or treating! Sure, it may be something some people stop doing early on in their teen years, but do we really have to? Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

It's that ~spooky~ time of year again, and our sisters want to talk about one of the spookiest experiences of the teen and adult Halloween experience: haunted houses! Some go a little too far for our sisters, but among the three of them there's a wide range of openness to spook, so come listen and get spooky with us! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Well, 2/3 of our sisters are off being famous authors and illustrators on whirlwind book tours, so our littlest sister has put together a third edition of "Best of Buffering!" She's put together some of their best bits throughout the past few months, from Sydnee Smirl the Science Girl to the Claire's extravaganza from PodCon, we've got it all! Come join us! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Rileigh has been obsessed with Shane Dawson's recent Youtube documentary series, and Sydnee is very confused by that idea, so we're going full documentary nerd! From Sydnee's weird obsession with Burning Man to the rise of Buzzfeed Unsolved and very meta Youtuber documentaries about other Youtubers, we're letting our documentarian flags fly and going all in. Come join us! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

We know we've talked about friends before, but we realized that non-male friendships in the media kinda get a bad rep, and no one really understands why? Like, could Clueless have done without the boys? And are Rizzo and Sandy really the best duo in all of Grease? Come answer these really important questions with us! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

So, there's this show on Netflix called "American Vandal," and all three of us are kind of obsessed with it recently? And it's about teens? So, we're going to talk about it, because it's funny and as it turns out, insightful about teen life as well! Be warned: minor spoilers involved for both seasons, but the identity of neither teen criminal is revealed. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Now stick with us here, we know you hear "shoes" is our topic and you're like, come on sisters, that's the best you have for us? But HEAR US OUT, did you know slides are now being sold for thousands of dollars? How about shoes that order pizza, did you know about those? Well come join us, and you'll know about ALL of it. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

The sisters are back! Fresh from a brief hiatus, the Smirl girls are here to discuss roommates. Rileigh has officially lived with her roommates for about a month now, so she's qualified to talk about living with them, right? From creepy dolls to stinky dishes, the sisters have had a wide range of roommate experiences and are here to talk about them ALL. Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

You have all watched (well, listened to) our littlest Smirl go through some pretty big changes recently, and now she's going through another. Long distance relationships are a part of a lot of people's college experiences, and now Rileigh's too. Come join our oldest sisters in helping her through this transition and give her some goofs too! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Last week she was moving into her dorm, and this week our littlest Smirl has become a full-fledged college student! We're talking all about how different the first day of college is compared to other first days we've discussed in the past, from the difference between professors and teachers, to the secret formula for creating a full sized refrigerator, we've got it all! Come start school with us! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

The day has finally arrived! The littlest Smirl sister has packed her bags and moved into her first college dorm. From giant cardboard moving bins to mini fridges on mini fridges, the sisters have covered every possible facet of the college move in experience, so come join us! Music: "Baby You Change Your Mind" by Nouvellas

Well, the time has come for our littlest sister's final episode still living at home, this time next week she'll be all on her own in her big girl college dorm! In honor of this momentous occasion, we're talking about the (maybe pointless) college tradition of orientation, complete with campus tours and "safety" talks.
