  • If Women Don’t Like You, There’s a Reason with Kristin Chirico | Ep. 56
    Jan 24 2026

    This week on Night School, Jesse and Kristin talk about how we love to see hot girls being messy and using their nepo privileges for good. Kristin had a fun night after the Chicago Bears beat the Packers, she shares a fantasy football update (spoiler: she got sassy and roasted a member lol), and we reveal our (not so) toxic traits. Kristin has a theory about whose hand was really touching the glass in the Titanic car scene (IYKYK), and we debate which are worse conditions for spicy time? Car or Beach? We also discuss Kristin’s brand advice that doubles as life advice about how important it is to have women on your side - personally and professionally.

  • Heated Rivalry Pt. 2 & Golden Globes FOMO | Ep. 55
    Jan 17 2026


    This week on Night School, Jesse and Kristin pick up their deep dive into the hockey romance that has evolved from a beloved adaptation into a full-blown cultural phenomenon. We unpack why Heated Rivalry has captured so much collective attention, from Hudson Williams’ breakout moment on late night, AMAZING fits during this press run, and how fandom functions in the TikTok era. We expand into a broader conversation about the psychology of fandom itself, how it creates connection during bleak cultural moments, and how joy, escapism, and sadness intersect within fandom.

    The episode goes deeper into the Heated Rivalry universe, including a thoughtful discussion of second book on Hudson and Ilya's romance, The Long Game. SPOILERS FOR LONG GAME IN THIS EPISODE!

    We also explore identity, productivity, and self-worth, and the emotional cost of tying your value to what you produce.

    Equal parts media analysis, fandom anthropology, and deeply personal conversation examining why connection, creativity, and shared stories still matter. Maybe more now, more than ever.

  • Garbagio Year | Ep. 54
    Jan 10 2026

    This week on Night School, Kristin Chirico returns and we discuss what it’s like when your life is objectively kind of a mess, but you keep showing up anyway. We talk about having a strong year professionally while everything else feels unstable, how exhausting it is to hold it together, and what it actually means to ask for what you need instead of pretending to be chill. The conversation moves through dating, emotional vulnerability, ADHD and neurodivergence, and why admitting you like someone can feel more humiliating than getting rejected.
