Pretty Lonesome with Madeline Argy

dinosaurs and dictatorships

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 27 Mar 2026 07:00:00 +0000

From dinosaur documentaries to a TSA encounter that became an analogy for friendship, this week's episode helped me understand that everything is kind of a projection. i talk about living out of a suitcase, missing my flight, and falling down a rabbit hole of evolution, extinction, and how nothing we think is permanent actually is. then i get into people, why we get so triggered by certain traits in others, and how most of what we feel is just a reflection of something in us. this one is really about detachment, perspective, and realizing not everything is as personal as it feels. as always, love u

the danger of seeing the good in people

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 6 Mar 2026 08:00:00 +0000

we’re back with another advice session from your submissions and this week we talk about toxic relationships, trauma bonds, and the danger of seeing the good in people who consistently hurt you. i get into why bad relationships can feel impossible to leave, why it sometimes feels like the person who hurt you “wins,” and how compassion can slowly turn into self-betrayal if you’re not careful. we also talk about boundaries, self-honor, and the difference between loving someone and sacrificing yourself for them. this one is about protecting your heart without losing your ability to love. love u enjoy

discipline and trusting yourself

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 27 Feb 2026 08:00:00 +0000

exciting new announcement this week and life updates that made me think more about discipline and how I want to learn to trust myself again. recently a lot has come up around trying to outrun old versions of myself and realizing that change doesn't always leave your bad habits behind. i talk about living in my head like it’s a courtroom, why overthinking feels like control, and how doing the small things really matter: drinking water, making the bed, keeping small promises, and calling your energy back. this one’s about rebuilding trust with myself in the tiniest ways possible and betting on me in this new season :)

2025 debrief with photos // EP 96

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 16 Jan 2026 08:00:00 +0000

this week i do something a bit different. i go through my camera roll month by month and randomly pick photos from the last year, then explain what was actually happening behind each one. some are funny, some are embarrassing, some are way heavier than they look. it turns into a kind of accidental debrief of 2025, how much i hid, what i avoided talking about, and what all those moments say about shame, alignment, and letting things exist without rewriting them. it’s less of a resolution episode and more of a chance to let you in to the moments I didn't really show you guys but wish I did, while reflecting on them to prepare for this year. enjoy love u!!!!

advice session 4

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 26 Dec 2025 08:00:00 +0000

we're back with another advice session from your submissions and we talk about girl code, betrayal, and what happens when you do something that doesn’t sit right in your body. i get into female friendships, dating your friend’s ex, why shame hits harder when it comes from other women, and how easy it is to spiral into thinking you’re a bad person instead of a human who made a mistake. we also get into jealousy, moral alignment, male validation, and why doing the wrong thing once doesn’t define who you are forever. this one is about compassion, accountability, and learning who you are by actually living. love u enjoy

romanticizing being alone

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 12 Dec 2025 08:00:00 +0000

this week i talk about going quiet for a while and what happens when life forces you to slow down and sit with yourself. i get into my fear of being seen alone, why that feeling has followed me since i was a kid, and how i finally stopped letting it dictate my choices. i talk about traveling by myself, meeting strangers, creative block, curiosity, and relearning how to enjoy my own company without shame. it’s about trusting your instincts, romanticizing the in between moments, and realizing that being alone doesn’t mean you’re lacking anything. enjoy love u

How to change ur reality

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 31 Oct 2025 07:00:00 +0000

this week i talk about how to change your reality when you feel stuck, uninspired, or like you’re living the wrong life. i get into what it means to lose your spark, how to start believing in yourself again, and why sometimes the smallest changes—a different route to work, a new song, a stupid hat—can shift everything. i also talk about self-sabotage, fear of success, and how courage is usually just being scared and doing it anyway. love u guys

why do u feel unlovable

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 24 Oct 2025 07:00:00 +0000

this week i talk about what it means to actually sit down with the voices in your head instead of just pretending they don’t exist. i get into jealousy, shame, why validation from other people never really fixes anything, and the way we convince ourselves we’re unlovable for the dumbest reasons. i also share what it felt like to disappear for a month, why my ego has a fuck ass bob, and how noticing the scary stuff might be the only way through. enjoy, missed u

how to rage bait a man

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 19 Sep 2025 07:00:00 +0000

this week i talk about rage baiting men and how it’s actually one of the most efficient ways to figure out who you’re dealing with. i get into the subtle ways misogyny shows up in everyday life, how to use small questions and jokes to poke at fragile egos, and why “i know” might be the most dangerous thing you can say back to a compliment. we also talk male validation, internet rabbit holes, and the false sense of safety we get from assuming “he was raised by a woman” means anything at all. no one is exempt, so let’s have some fun testing them. enjoy love u

betrayal in my girl interrupted era

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 12 Sep 2025 07:00:00 +0000

this week i talk about betrayal and how it never stops catching me off guard, no matter how much i think i’ve prepared myself for it. i get into the way it rewires your nervous system like a mf-ing xmas tree, how it lingers in the body, and why it feels harder to let go of than sadness. i also share how i’ve handled it differently this time, and what it means to finally let myself feel anger. enjoy love u

Fletcher

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 22 Aug 2025 07:00:00 +0000

fletcher is here this week and we talk about what it means to write honestly about the people you’ve loved and sometimes lost and how terrifying it feels to put those stories into the world when everyone thinks they know who your songs are about

we get into queerness and music as a home for it the way her new album holds both heartbreak and joy at the same time and why telling the truth can be the most freeing thing even when it makes you want to hide under your bed

i also ask if she ever regrets being so raw in her lyrics and she reminds me that there’s power in being messy and human. enjoy love u

before i get into the lesbian master doc, i would be remiss not to acknowledge belly betraying herself and rage baiting the audience, jeremiah’s weird possessiveness, and why conrad’s distance was love disguised as avoidance. then it’s onto compulsory heterosexuality, how liking gay or fictional men is safer, and why attraction doesn’t always mean action. also: how society makes us confuse friendship with crushes and why i hate that every guy friend would still sleep with you. welcome to my dissertation!

this week I am talking about your stories and questions that you wrote in by unraveling a truly unhinged advice email about a boy who numbers his sexual partners (yes, literally gives them numbers), has a thing for helicopters (???), and ghosted a listener after prom. we also get into what real friendship looks like (spoiler: it’s not telling you to “do it for the plot”), how to move on from villains you dated, and unexplored queerness in committed relationships. loved getting to yap with you after 3 days in the desert

everyone is lying about their lore and I have an ant infestation

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Fri, 18 Jul 2025 07:00:00 +0000

this week I am grappling with ants in my pillows, getting rage baited by my landlord and the idea that the stories you tell yourself about your past form your ‘life story’, therefore your perception of yourself and therefore the behaviour of your future self. and what if we can re write the past and nothing is concrete and we can change things we have previously accepted as true about ourselves by a shift in perspective? like what if our past is up for grabs? filmed at a very stupid hour, I once again missed half the points I wanted to make so maybe ill do a part two on this subject but until then …

I threw up for the first time since developing emetophobia over ten years ago

light trigger warning for people who are very sensitive - nothing gross is mentioned, verbiage only what’s in title and description, and I mostly discuss the emotional impact and how I processed the experience

additionally, I filmed this episode in my birthday and dove into why I fear aging so much while also being so young and how I turned my mindset into a more positive one so I could stop crashing out and enjoy the best day of the year

I'm going to stop being a B*tch x

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Mon, 1 Jan 2024 15:00:00 +0000

(Video podcast available on Spotify & YouTube) Madeline is joined by her dog Bugs for this episode as they ring in the New Year together. Madeline starts out by telling a scary story of how Bugs almost died recently by eating a candy cane off the Christmas tree. After it was lodged in her throat (plastic and all), Madeline rushed her to the vet where she was fed four courses of charcoal and seen by poison control. A large heap of money later, Bugs is thankfully now back to normal.

Madeline also shares that she is against the idea of traditional New Year’s resolutions as she believes that resolutions are a toxic mindset. She thinks that you should instead have daily or monthly resolutions and goals that you should think about every day of the year rather than just once per year. Madeline’s first goal for 2024 is to start actually using her gym membership. She admits that the only reason she has gone to the gym this year was to use the gym shower while hers was broken.

Madeline’s next few goals for the year include cooking for herself, writing in her diary again, and no longer lying to her therapist. Cheers to 2024 and another year of Pretty Lonesome!

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Mon, 27 Nov 2023 08:00:00 +0000

(Video podcast available on Spotify & YouTube) Welcome back to Pretty Lonesome! While Madeline is away this week, she has hand selected one of her favorites from the archives to keep you company (don’t worry she’ll be back next week!).

This week, Madeline discusses how to recognize when friends are not meant for you, and subsequently….how to cut them off. While Madeline does not believe in ghosting people, she does think that if you are in a situation that is taking too much away from you and proving to be unfulfilling, you need to step away. Madeline admits to going on blocking sprees, removing toxic friends from her life and feeling like everything was over at the time. However, what she found later in life, was that removing these people opened new doors of happiness and opportunity for her.

Madeline also highlights the importance of what it means to be a friend. She believes that friends play an important role in providing emotional support and shares a story of a time that she was extremely grateful for her friends sticking by her and providing her support even when she was in the wrong.

My Best Friend Left Me For My Ex

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Mon, 16 Oct 2023 07:00:00 +0000

(Video podcast available on Spotify & YouTube) This week on Pretty Lonesome, Madeline talks about her ex best friend. She believes ex besties can be harder to get over than ex relationships, and discusses how hard it can be to forgive someone who you truly trusted. In her discussion of forgiveness, Madeline admits that forgiveness isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be. She feels that forgiveness should only serve the person who is giving it, not the person who is receiving it. While she has been in both positions, she admits that she would never encourage anyone to rush themselves into forgiving another person. After all, Madeline believes that forgiving too quickly can cause more hurt in the long run. Finally, Madeline shares her belief in manifestation and offers advice for those looking to find their own voice. She reveals that she often used to go on “hot girl walks”, saying manifestations out loud to herself while visualizing cutting physical ties with another person. Madeline is convinced that this method worked wonders with her ex and ex bestie. Join Madeline on Pretty Lonesome for a conversation on relationships, toxicity, forgiveness, manifestation, and finding your voice.

I Was Diagnosed With ADHD

podcasts@iamunwell.com (Unwell) — Mon, 9 Oct 2023 07:00:00 +0000

(Video podcast available on Spotify & YouTube) For the second episode of Pretty Lonesome, join Madeline as she gets cozy and vulnerable in her car. She opens up about her recent ADHD diagnosis after deciding to seek help. She admits that there have been signs pointing to this disorder in the early stages of her life, but it wasn’t until she sat down to record her first episode of her podcast that she realized how much her attention deficit issues were taking over her life. She remembers experiencing a lack of motivation in school, falling behind on her work, and being unable to commit to deadlines. Madeline has since decided to take control of her life and not let these past difficulties define her. As a first step in her healing journey, she’s no longer rotting and taking the easy way out - but forcing herself to be around people despite her general distaste for company.
