double trouble ft. Danielle & Brigette Pheloung

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are joined by twin sisters Brigette Pheloung and Danielle Pheloung, the stylish duo behind PhePhe and familiar faces from social media. the girls catch up on all things Coachella chaos, from camping out in the Justin Bieber crowd and secondhand highs to Snapchat streak confessions, YouTube “safe spaces,” and the realities of being content creators online. they also get into their different relationships with routine, wellness, and working out, with Jaz questioning everyone’s obsession with 7:30 a.m. Tracy Anderson classes while Brigette and Danielle reveal the secret to their ultra-disciplined lifestyles.the conversation then turns into a hilarious and surprisingly deep dive into twin life. Brigette and Danielle open up about being identical twins, whether they ever compete with each other, if they’ve ever been jealous, and the biggest fight they’ve ever had (spoiler: they got involved with the same guy in high school). they talk about their polar opposite taste in men, dating guys from the same hometown, and whether their fiancés could actually tell them apart. the girls also unpack wedding season in full force, from Brigette’s bachelorette planning and choosing not to have bridesmaids, to Danielle’s maid-of-honor speech pressure, Jaz’s wedding content legacy, and all the chaos that comes with planning life’s biggest events in the public eye.as if wedding planning, content creation, and running a business weren’t enough, Brigette and Danielle get real about launching PhePhe together and what it’s actually like mixing sisterhood with business. the girls swap stories about their best and worst brand trips, dream travel plans to Korea and Tokyo, and the pressure of constantly creating online while keeping up with real life behind the scenes. from “green monster” jealousy and influencer drama to heartfelt friendship moments… this episode has everything: sister chaos, wedding stress, business talk, and the kind of laughter that feels like you’re sitting on the couch with the girls, exactly the type of vibe that only Delusional Diaries can bring!Timestamps 0:18 - Brigette and Danielle on the pod 12:31 - Upcoming travels & brand trips23:47 - All things wedding35:27 - MOH duties 39:37 - PhePhe49:27 - Personal style 58:19 - Having twins More of Delusional Diaries Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcastYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DelusionaldiariespodcastSubstack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/More of Halley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halleykmcg/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halleykateMore of Jaz:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justjazzzyidk/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justjazzzyidkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/justjazzzyidkMore of Danielle:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/daniellepheloung/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@daniellepheYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@brigetteanddanielleMore of Brigette:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/acquired.style/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@acquiredstyleYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@brigetteanddanielleLinksOllie - Ollie.

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are back together after what feels like forever apart…and they have A LOT of ground to cover. starting off with Coachella: Jaz was there, Halley had major fomo but made peace with it, and now that they're finally in the same room again, the full debrief is happening in real time. naturally, Justin Bieber's headlining set comes up, and the girls actually have a more nuanced take than most of the internet did, breaking down why his low-key, chill performance made complete sense for who he is as an artist…from there, the conversation turns to everything that blew up on the internet while they were living their lives, and there is a lot to unpack. the hayley beck situation is first on the docket, and if you haven't heard about it yet, buckle up, because the girls actually give you the full breakdown in this episode. the masters influencer discourse also gets its moment, specifically the backlash aimed at creators who attended, and why Halley and Jaz think most of the outrage completely missed the point of why those invites were extended in the first place.and then, as always, things take a personal turn as they share their recent updates: Halley is two days into invisalign and already has opinions: the lisp, the brackets, the adjustment period, and the fact that Reed got invisalign at the same time so now they're doing it together. Jaz, meanwhile, has been quietly avoiding the dentist because she's pretty sure one of her front teeth is dying and she does not want to know what comes next. it starts as a dental update but slowly turns into a full group therapy session about dentist trauma. there's also a f/m/k of instagram, tiktok, and youtube that gets surprisingly heated, Halley’s recurring déjà vu experiences that she is fully convinced mean something, and a tax day conversation that's funny and frustrating. another week, another episode, so much to unpack, like always.Timestamps 0:21 - Stacy’s time of the month 3:55 - Noah Beck’s sister 8:50 - The Masters12:07 - Sibling fights 25:18 - Going to the dentist More of Delusional Diaries Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcastYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DelusionaldiariespodcastSubstack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/More of Halley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halleykmcg/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halleykateMore of Jaz:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justjazzzyidk/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justjazzzyidkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/justjazzzyidkLinks Ollie - Ollie.

this week on Delusional Diaries, the girls are joined by their new, but already very close, friend: Greta Louise Tomé. this episode has it all: they get into how they first met, the unexpected evolution of their friendship, and why being stuck together in Australia somehow fast-tracked them into “we’re basically family now” territory… but of course, that’s not all (as per usual)!naturally, the conversation takes a turn into relationships, career paths, and the reality behind the lives everyone thinks are perfect online. they talk dating a pilot (and whether that’s actually a red flag), getting married young, and the difference between choosing someone at 25 vs. 35. there’s also discussions about therapy vs. “I’ll just deal with it myself,” the concept of delusional confidence, and why the way you think about your life might actually be shaping it more than you realize.Oh, and the craziness you know & love? it is also very much present. we’re talking influencer secrets, iPhone camera conspiracies, random wellness debates, and a surprise reveal that no one saw coming. somewhere between serious life advice and absolutely unserious yapping sessions, the girls also get into how to actually meet people, stop giving closed-off energy, and romanticize your life a little more. it’s exactly what you’d expect: just three friends oversharing and somehow making it make sense.Timestamps 1:31 - How we met Greta 11:17 - Pros and cons of getting married young 17:45 - Greta’s secret 24:54 - Questions from followers 42:27 - The art of self tanning More of Delusional Diaries Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcastYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DelusionaldiariespodcastSubstack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/More of Halley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halleykmcg/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halleykateMore of Jaz:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justjazzzyidk/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justjazzzyidkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/justjazzzyidkMore of Greta:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gretalouisetome/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gretalouisetomeLinks: Ollie - Ollie.

this week on Delusional Diaries, the girls dive straight into chaos as Jaz recounts a week-long internet spiral after a TikTok misunderstanding turned into full-blown drama. what started as an accidental follow and a harmless message quickly snowballed into viral screenshots, missing context, and millions of views, along with a wave of hate comments that seriously impacted her mental health. they unpack how quickly narratives can twist online, why being misunderstood hits harder than criticism, and the emotional toll of watching strangers decide who you are without the full story.from there, the conversation shifts into a broader discussion about navigating negativity as creators. they reflect on Reddit rabbit holes, the addictive cycle of reading comments, and the long-term impact of internalizing other people’s opinions. the girls get candid about anxiety, hormones, coping mechanisms, and learning to stop chasing universal approval. they also debate manifestation, self-perception, and how constantly trying to “fix” yourself based on criticism can dull your personality and make you lose sight of reality.of course, the episode balances vulnerability with classic “delusional diaries” energy. they talk about the “people hate you every day” mindset, breaking toxic habits, and why you’ll never win if you try to please everyone online. the conversation touches on performative activism, when to speak up versus amplify others, and the pressure creators feel to comment on everything. It’s messy, honest, and relatable: covering internet drama, mental health, growth, and the ongoing mission to stay confident (and a little delusional) in a world that’s always ready to misunderstand you.Timestamps0:20 - Jaz’s block of the week 14:36 - Stay off Reddit 26:02 - Halley’s weekend updates 29:41 - Reality TV 48:24 - First impressions  More of Delusional Diaries Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcastYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DelusionaldiariespodcastSubstack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/More of Halley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halleykmcg/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halleykateMore of Jaz:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justjazzzyidk/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justjazzzyidkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/justjazzzyidkLinks Ollie - Ollie.

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are taking it all the way back to the early covid days, and realizing just how insane that era actually was. what started as a “two-week break” turned into a full identity crisis, and the girls unpack exactly where they were when everything shut down. from Halley barely surviving unpaid internships, college, and New York burnout, to Jaz thriving in her corporate era before getting abruptly pulled into HR for a literal covid exposure scandal, their origin stories are crazy, funny and life-altering. it’s the kind of hindsight that makes you go… wait, that actually changed everything.they get real about how losing their routines, jobs, and sense of normalcy forced them into completely different paths: ones that ultimately led them to where they are now, together in the studio. from getting laid off and spiraling into depression, to starting TikTok “as a joke” and accidentally building careers, they talk about the weird in-between phase of doing nothing, doing too much, and trying to figure out who you are when everything familiar disappears. it’s honest, relatable, reflective, and lowkey proof that sometimes your lowest point is actually the setup.of course, it wouldn’t be Delusional Diaries without the side quests. the episode spirals into thrift store hustles turned mini empires, fake designer accusations, high school party lore, and the kind of crazy teenage decisions that somehow make sense in retrospective. they discuss parenting topics & there’s also random debates, questionable choices, and a lot of “why were we like this?” energy. we’re sure that, you’ll find yourself in this episode, you’ll look back & reflect with the girls, and laugh just as much as they did…Timestamps0:28 - 6 years since COVID 18:10 - What were we all doing during lockdown 21:06 - Golfing 24:25 - Going to court 26:40 - Sweet 16 and high school parties 48:18: - Lemme send a good PR package More of Delusional Diaries Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcastYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DelusionaldiariespodcastSubstack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/More of Halley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halleykmcg/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halleykateMore of Jaz:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justjazzzyidk/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justjazzzyidkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/justjazzzyidkLinks Cozy Earth - Go to cozyearth.com/DELUSIONAL for up to 20% off!Blissy - Wake up with clearer skin, smoother hair, and cooler sleep.

this week on delusional diaries, halley and jaz are all over the place in the best way, starting with losing their voices, random health spirals, and immediately getting irritated by the internet. from unsolicited outfit commentary to people creating problems out of thin air, they get into why being perceived online is a losing game, and why sometimes you just have to laugh and move on (or at least pretend to). then it’s full-on life logistics mode as halley dives into planning her “not a wedding” wedding, and realizes it’s basically… a wedding. they break down everything from vendors and food to guest dynamics, timing stress, and the very real pressure of making sure everyone has a good time. it’s less about tradition and more about creating a night that actually feels fun, which somehow comes with its own level of chaos. meanwhile, home renovations, decor decisions, and spending spirals are in full swing, because apparently everything happens all at once.and because nothing stays normal for long, the episode takes a hard left: wild stories from the engagement party, lost luggage drama, matcha obsession updates, and a passionate rant about people who don’t pick up after their dogs. they also get into jewelry dilemmas, their blocks of the week, apartment decisions, and the tiny inconveniences that somehow take up your entire day. it’s unhinged, it’s relatable, and it’s exactly the kind of chaotic life update you’d expect from your favorite duo.Timestamps 0:18 - we might be getting sick  2:09 - block of the week 5:36 - Halley’s party plans 16:33 - house updates28:40 - Jaz is (actually) staying in her apartment39:35 - b**ching hour  48:39 - David’s protein barsMore of Delusional Diaries Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcastYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DelusionaldiariespodcastSubstack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/More of Halley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halleykmcg/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halleykateMore of Jaz:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justjazzzyidk/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justjazzzyidkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/justjazzzyidkSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

this week on delusional diaries, Halley and Jaz are finally back from their very long stay down under and debriefing everything that went down in Australia. what started as a brand trip quickly turned into a full-blown adventure when their flight home got unexpectedly canceled, leaving them stranded for a few extra days. what could’ve been a travel nightmare actually became a blessing in disguise: after days of packed schedules and filming content, they suddenly had time to slow down, explore, and actually enjoy the trip like normal humans instead of “working girls” on influencer duty.the girls get into the chaos of international travel delays, the oddly specific stress of canceled long-haul flights, and the bizarre feeling of manifesting something you joked about just hours earlier. they also talk about the unique dynamic of brand trips, where you sometimes meet people for the first time and immediately jump into the deepest level of friendship: traveling together. from bonding with greta and sydney to the strange intimacy of spending 11 straight days with people you barely knew before, they unpack how those trips can fast-track friendships in a way normal life never really does.of course, the episode is also a classic post-trip catch-up. they reflect on the surreal experience of living out something they talked about manifesting on the podcast, the difference between content trips and real vacations, and the small moments that ended up meaning the most once the cameras were off. between travel chaos, friendship lore, and the general delirium that comes from too many long flights and too little sleep, it’s a chaotic, reflective, and very delusional diaries kind of episode. Timestamps 0:20 - Back from Australia 14:58 - Working on the Will18:32 - Testing our knowledge 35:56 - Emojis, Reality TV, and Breakups 45:48 - In the name of a BirkinMore of Delusional Diaries Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcastYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DelusionaldiariespodcastSubstack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/More of Halley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halleykmcg/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halleykateMore of Jaz:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justjazzzyidk/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justjazzzyidkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/justjazzzyidkLinks Ollie: Ollie.

this week on Delusional Diaries, we’re hitting rewind for a full-on highlights episode: a chaotic, unfiltered compilation of the moments that define this podcast. from petty friendship fights (the anxiety spiral of a “hi” text with no follow-up, pregame arrival time wars, and who actually respects whose schedule) to brand trip beach blowups and influencer grudges that have lasted literal years, nothing is left out. the girls revisit the almost-move-to-florida era, the signed lease, the shared one-bedroom plan, the horse girl volunteer dreams, and how brand trips, boyfriends, and life completely rerouted everything. of course, it wouldn’t be delusional diaries without the unhinged domestic lore: caffeine addictions and diet coke dependencies, coffee-fueled aggression, eating dog treats as a “sweet treat,” hotel room roommate nightmares, injuring-a-bunny-by-proxy (rip), and the ongoing debate about which dogs are draft picks versus practice squad. they unpack patience (or the lack of it), marathon hypotheticals for cash, chaotic family holidays, and what happens when your boyfriend’s entire extended family listens to your very explicit podcast.but woven through the madness are the moments that made this show what it is: opening up about worst eras, mental health lows, therapy, imposter syndrome versus delusional confidence, and what it means to grow up publicly in your 20s. this episode is Delusional Diaries, wrapped into one very on-brand recap. if you’re an old listener, we know you’ll love revisiting these moments. if you’re new here, this is your perfect entry point into the rollercoaster.More of Delusional Diaries Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcastYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DelusionaldiariespodcastSubstack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/More of Halley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halleykmcg/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halleykateMore of Jaz:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justjazzzyidk/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justjazzzyidkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/justjazzzyidkSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are back on the couch after a whirlwind couple of days, starting with Maddie’s Miami wedding, which delivered everything: 6 a.m. glam, bridesmaid pool hangs, emotional speeches, and an after-party that turned into a full-on club experience. they reflect on watching a friend go from past heartbreaks to finding the right partner, the stress of wedding planning finally paying off, and why seeing someone’s dream day unfold exactly how they imagined it hits so hard. the episode then shifts into a more vulnerable conversation as Jaz opens up about navigating an unexpected loss and the emotional whiplash of going from excitement to processing something entirely different. she shares what it’s like to move through something deeply personal while also living online, balancing private grief with public commentary and unsolicited opinions. together, the girls get honest about hormones, healing, chosen family, and why adult friendships can truly feel like home during life’s harder chapters.of course, they balance the heavy with their very original fun. they dive into the internet frenzy around Mikayla Nogueira’s divorce announcement, debate whether the backlash was fair, and unpack the chaos of Tell Me Lies’ manipulative men and morally grey characters. from influencer ads to toxic situationships, Australia travel plans, Invisalign updates, and 17-hour flight anxiety, this episode is raw, hilarious, and very on-brand: grief, gossip, growth, and a little delusion, all in one.Timestamps 0:32 - Maddie’s wedding recap 15:05 - Internet topics 24:45 - Tell Me Lies Finale 32:56 - Getting on the same page 46:26 - Next Top Model More of Delusional Diaries Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcastYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DelusionaldiariespodcastSubstack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/More of Halley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halleykmcg/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halleykateMore of Jaz:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justjazzzyidk/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justjazzzyidkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/justjazzzyidkSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz catch up the only way they know how... from celebrating 100 Solidcore classes and resurrecting 90s Tae Bo, to surviving the most aggressive New York cold snap of all time, the girls recap wedding weekends, Miami plans, Turks anticipation, and why group trips, where everyone’s down to drink and beat the same topics into the ground, are elite. there’s also a deep dive into phone battery conspiracies, hoarder-level camera rolls, and the mildly concerning contents of their notes apps.but the heart of the episode centers around Halley’s intense court experience after being “allegedly” assaulted in New York. she opens up about testifying, being cross-examined by the defendant (who represented himself), the chaos of courtroom objections, and the emotional toll of being photographed and gaslit throughout the process. it’s raw, frustrating, at times darkly funny, and an ironic reminder of how draining the legal system can be… especially when someone refuses accountability. the girls unpack what it felt like in real time, from courtroom theatrics to the surreal moment of watching TikTok evidence played out in court.as always, the episode balances heavy with hilariously chaotic. they spiral into jury duty fantasies, debate whether you can escape hell once you’re in it, confess to adult-onset lice trauma (yes, really), read old hate letters to brokers, and expose their most embarrassing past crushes.Timestamps11:08 - Halley Kate Court26:00 - Looking forward to in Feb30:12 - Sentimental value35:08 - Our notes app43:43 - The ABCs46:56 - But you’re an adultMore of Delusional Diaries Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/delusionaldiariespodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@delusionaldiariespodcastYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@DelusionaldiariespodcastSubstack: https://delusionaldiariespodcast.substack.com/Website: https://delusionaldiaries.com/More of Halley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/halleykmcg/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@halleykateMore of Jaz:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justjazzzyidk/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justjazzzyidkYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/justjazzzyidkSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
