Confessions of a Desi Drama Queen

EP 52: Married in Manhattan

• Sana Memon and Amna Saleemi • Episode 52

🗽This week, we’re in New York City— fully cosplaying life as a true married couple with our 23-year-old “daughter” who’s in fashion school (don’t ask, just go with it). In reality, we’re sharing a room with her three roommates and an air mattress, surviving on bagels, bodega coffee, and pure delusion. We stay up all night and do a Gilmore Girls–style food tour like it’s our livlihood!🍕

🍁🍂Fall in New York has us convinced life is actually worth living — the outfits, the energy, the dramaaaaa🤸But it’s dangerous… because city moms are out here doing God’s work making us catch baby fever, and honestly, don’t own a corgi unless you want every man, woman, and tourist to stop you on the street!

Somewhere between the catcalls (we’re the catcallers apparently), the bagels, and the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, we start to question everything — from “how much work on your face is too much?” to “why do 2000s fantasies still run our lives?” to “should we actually move here?” And yes, we have a surprise guest joining us this week (hint: our daughter)!!!!!

Oh, and Amna shares how her entire family watches the pod — which somehow spirals into a conversation about saving Imran Khan (because of course it does)

It’s us in the city that never sleeps — and let’s be real, this sh*t hits different (and harder) in our 30s
