There is no lack of musical ability or big egos here at Team Babe. The private lessons, performance opportunities, and parental support sure paid off… for one of us. Find out which babe dreams of dominating the stage on world tour, and which babe just isn’t that into it.

Why did the babes choose a life without adorable, fuzzy mammals for the last six years? We talk about all the pet stories, why we needed a break from the emotional rollercoaster of pet ownership, and how our zoo-keeping lifestyle lost its charm as vet bills, dog diabetes, and bloat surgery left us shook, drained, and saddled with a mountain of credit card debt.

Why did we start this podcast? Why do we have so much say? What’s the point? 22 years of true love and true crazy has given us a lot to say. This is our creative project—our therapy, and rebellion.

Change is hard, we should know. We traded the ghost town life for downtown poverty. An unemployment glitch and a couple of unexpected injuries left us broke AF. All the while, a silver lining was gleaming faintly in the distance. This is the last of the past, ya’ll.

Like a pack of displaced wolves, we moved to a ghost town in the mountains, full of scorpions, hermits, and bigfoot. It was the wild west of emotions, mental health, and big changes. Team Babe survived the tidal wave of the ponzi scheme and washed up on the shore of what to do next.

As a raid on our “financial advisors” made national news headlines, one even tried to flee the country, attempting to smuggle gold, cash, and drugs through customs in his cowboy boots. Seriously. We got a nerve-wracking call from the FBI, and developed a close personal relationship with our fax machine. The illusion of wealth went up in smoke, and we found ourselves tangled in the consequences of our actions.

In the movie Wall Street, Gordon Gekko said, “greed is good.” But when it is veiled in a responsible plan for your future and your family, it’s easy to say yes to just about anything. Here’s where we opened the wrong door and signed on the dotted line that lead to the eventual demise of the dream house and $1 million dollars worth of debt.

The real estate market bubble was just about to pop and we were approved for a massive mortgage. Of course, we also had a 6 week old baby. It was now or never, so we sunk all of our cash, signed away our lives, and kept on chasing the dream. What could possibly go wrong with blinders firmly in place and confidence on high? Find out how we got just what we asked for.
