Friends Without Benefits

Season 4 kicks off in Delray Beach at StellaMix Studios with Rachel and Dale in rare form. We talk about Rachel’s surgery glow up, clear up the pineapple and swingers myth, and debate a spicy parenting scenario where only one kid gets the ice cream. We unpack reality TV chaos from The Bachelor’s newest curveball to the Big Brother emotional affair, then dive into wild documentaries including Amanda Knox, Amy Bradley, and the jaw-dropper about cyberbullying. We revisit the infamous poop cruise, roast the Labubu craze, and seal a Canes vs. Gators bet that may end with a toe touch. Hit play, vote in our poll, and come hang with us as Friends Without Benefits gets real, funny, and a little unhinged.Contact Rachel Sobel:Email: rachel@whineandcheezits.comWebsite: www.whineandcheezits.comFacebook:  Whine and Cheez - its by Rachel Sobel   Instagram: @whineandcheezitsTikTok: @rachel.sobel.writesContact Dale McLean:Email: dance715@aol.comWebsite: dalethehost.comInstagram: @UptownDale

Dale dishes on first time solo international travel to Italy and Brazil, plus the morning after IV rescue. We compare Love Island obsessions, make the case for the spicier British version, rant about cancel culture, and complain about AI appointment hell. It is friendship, real life, and zero platonic confusion.

It’s the season three sendoff you didn’t know you needed. Rachel and Dale bring the laughs and the truth bombs as they dive into parenting teens who definitely lie, why Ring doorbell footage is better than reality TV, and what happens when hospitals start acting like used car lots.

It’s heartfelt, hysterical, and hilariously off the rails—just how we like it.
