Description

Karsyn Elledge and Caitlin Waltrip are two lifelong besties, bonded by shared chaos, famous families, and a whole lot of laughs. In Rare Breeds, they’re diving headfirst into the hilarity and heartbreak of navigating life after growing up in NASCAR’s brightest glare. From spilling tea on messy nights out to tackling adulthood head-on, Karsyn and Caitlin bring their unfiltered takes and unmatched humor to every episode. This isn’t just another girlhood podcast—it’s a real, raw, and ridiculously funny ride through their one-of-a-kind perspective. Whether they’re dragging their past, hyping their futures, or just trying to make it through the week, one thing’s for sure: they’re keeping it unapologetically real. It’s messy, it’s meaningful, it’s all the things. Tune in—you won’t regret it. Probably.

Halloween Reddit Stories Where the Boyfriend Is the Real Horror Movie
2026/10/27
It’s Halloween on Rare Breeds, so you know we had to come in dressed up. Caitlin is a nun, and Karsyn is Caitlin: lawn chair, Stanley full of wine, giant vape, the whole look. Fair warning, this one is better on video. We’re also sitting next to a skeleton with no name, so help us out in the comments. Logan’s last day at the office meant one final prank on Caitlin. It took a week and a half of planning, a fake lunch, a full set of racing contingency decals, and a lot of Saran Wrap. Then she had to drive through town and pick up her kids like that. The reaction videos are everything. Then it’s Messy Draft, zombie apocalypse edition. We each pick a team, and somebody gets picked purely to be the sacrifice. Joe Exotic and Carole Baskin make the list, and of course so does Wilson. Last up is Text Him or Wreck Him. We’re going through some of the best Reddit stories including a bar crawl he didn’t want her at, a girl who got a lot more than she bargained for in LA, a hidden camera plugged into a wall, a woman who asked to take a bite of someone else’s taco, and a grown man scared of Monster House. Plus, Halloween decorating, couples costume ideas, and an unplanned coyote hunting story. Happy Halloween!

$14 Wine, A Room That Broke Our Brains, and a Man Who Peed on the Street on Date Two
2026/10/20
Karsyn bought two bottles of wine -- for $77 each. Turns out Total Wine sells the same thing for $14; and the guy who sold it to her didn’t say a word. Then Caitlin tells her story of walking into a gravity room completely sober and has not been right since. We’re talking permanent vertigo, an elderly couple that looked like they were escaping the Titanic, and a pregnant woman nobody warned. Since it’s October, we went through every way we’d die in a horror movie. We both try to talk to the killer. One of us would sleep through the whole thing and honestly, we just don’t do well with people trying to tell us what to do. Then we’re off to Feral Feud and trying to figure out the most popular answers to burning questions like: what guys lie about on a first date, what you hope your date doesn’t notice (an ex’s name tattooed on you, anyone?), and the best ghost dating bio. We got “no baggage, I’m already buried” way too late. Two fun ones on Text Him or Wreck Him: He told her in the car that he hooked up with the girl who just hugged her goodbye. And a second date that ended with a guy peeing in the street. One text, one wreck – you might be surprised about this one. Next, we’re getting into more serious conversations like being married and sleeping in separate rooms. Genius or a red flag? Apparently younger couples are trying “sleep divorces,” and we have thoughts. Would you do a sleep divorce? They’re also revisiting Karsyn’s rule for men to keep sim racing rigs out of the living room after some feedback disagreeing (shockingly it wasn’t a woman pushing back on this). Next week is the Halloween episode. Costumes are happening --- but Caitlin is already leaning into a Jack Sparrow vibe on this episode, you’ll see.     Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RareBreedsPod Shop Our Merch! https://shop.dirtymomedia.com/collections/rare-breeds Listen to the Forgotten Bangers Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0Mx2DiAtNxSWvhMaND4q83?si=setCA7S4SRCb2srJ_KtcAg Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Caitlin Went Viral, and the Comments Are Out of Control
2026/10/13
Caitlin went viral, and the internet has questions. A video of her sisters dogpiling her husband has millions of views, and the comment section is convinced they’ve found the next season of Sister Wives. They haven’t…Probably. Caitlin walks us through how two sisters ended up married to two brothers, we read the best comments out loud, and then we read her husband’s ‘official statement.’ Yes, he wrote one and it involves a brisket. Then it’s Messy Draft: Halloween costumes that peaked in a specific year and need to stay there. We’ve got strong feelings about Harley Quinn, morph suits, and the blow-up costume nobody’s parent asked for. Got a spooky season idea for the show? Send it our way. On One of Us Must Go, the newest segment in the Rare Breeds lineup, Caitlin and Karsyn decide who has to negotiate with the aliens after first contact goes horribly wrong. Then Texoma Requiem: keep him or dump him? Plus, Wilson’s origin story ($300, a field in Oklahoma) and a very honest Verity movie review.   Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RareBreedsPod Shop Our Merch! https://shop.dirtymomedia.com/collections/rare-breeds Listen to the Forgotten Bangers Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0Mx2DiAtNxSWvhMaND4q83?si=setCA7S4SRCb2srJ_KtcAg Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

"Beer Isn't Ladylike" and Other Ways to Get Dumped Fast
2026/10/06
Karsyn Elledge and Caitlin Waltrip are back at it this week for another episode of Rare Breeds, and as always, they’re here for a good time. In honor of the start of Spooky Season, Karsyn, in true Karsyn fashion, gives Caitlin a jump scare that nobody saw coming. After that, they’re diving into their usual favorites, starting off with a Messy Draft. This week has us asking the question – what are some things in a man’s house that instantly earns him brownie points (surprisingly, Fireball wasn’t on the list, but a hairbrush is). Next, they put on their thinking caps and play a few rounds of Feral Feud – where we ask them questions other people have answered and see how many they can get right. In Text Him or Wreck Him, they’re weighing in on a situation that left us all a bit uneasy – but of course Karsyn has her own story involving a shirt, a sleepover, and a DM from a guy’s ex about said shirt – you’ll want to hear this one. They also weigh in on a man commenting on a woman’s drink choice and the response from the guy who was buying.  Finally, they wrap up with some listener questions on Ask Rare Breeds, and we find out what their perfect autumn day looks like, and of course, Taylor Swift’s new album. This is a fun one so be sure to give it a listen if you need an escape from your busy life. We promise, nothing serious happens on this show!

Five Years Without an “I Love You?!”
2026/09/29
This week on Rare Breeds Caitlin Waltrip and Karsyn Elledge have a new segment for the show: “One of Us Has to Go.” The rules are simple – they’re given situations and they have to decide between the two of them who would be the one to go. From talking their way out of trouble with the cops to getting past a bouncer at a club, there’s plenty to debate. On this week’s Messy Draft, we’re planning our dream dive bars including our house specialty drinks – spoiler alert – Caitlin’s involves Fireball and…Fireball. On Text Him or Wreck Him we hear the story of a woman who says her boyfriend of five years still hasn’t said the three magic words – you can already guess if this is a text or wreck. Finally, they’re wrapping things up with Ask Rare Breeds – we already know all about Karsyn’s tattoos but Caitlin’s are a different story – we’re finding out which ones are her favorites and Karsyn wants to know why she doesn’t have a friendship tattoo in her honor.  Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RareBreedsPod Shop Our Merch! https://shop.dirtymomedia.com/collections/rare-breeds Listen to the Forgotten Bangers Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0Mx2DiAtNxSWvhMaND4q83?si=setCA7S4SRCb2srJ_KtcAg Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Birthday Drinks, Awkward Voicemails, & Open Relationships
2026/09/22
Karsyn’s in for a birthday surprise on this episode of Rare Breeds and things are going to get rowdy as Caitlin Waltrip and the Dirty Mo Media Crew start things off with a bang! This week Emotional Purse involves a hilarious … and awkward voicemail message which you’ll just have to hear to understand. Karsyn tells the story of how she almost (but didn’t) run out on a $300 bar tab – she’s blaming the espresso martinis. This week’s Messy Draft has us asking the question “what should require a license…but doesn’t?” and Feral Feud has the Rare Breeds Crew asking themselves “What would I do if I woke up to find a T-rex in my yard?" If you’re a T-rex and find yourself in Caitlin’s yard – RUN. On “Text Him or Wreck Him” they get into one person’s awkward realization that she was a third party in an open relationship. Finally, on Ask Rare Breeds we find out what the perfect birthday looks like for Caitlin and Karsyn.

Karsyn's Finally Ready To Admit She's Wrong...
2026/09/15
Karsyn hates to admit it… but, like many times before, everyone was right about Flower Guy. On today’s episode of Rare Breeds, Karsyn Elledge and Caitlin Waltrip’s Emotional Purses are the last thing we wanted or expected from Karsyn’s latest dating trial. In Messy Draft, we list 10 things that, no matter what, will instantly ruin our day. This week, the I Said What I Said segment takes a surprise twist… as the girls are forced to guess who said what from previous episodes of the show. In Text Him or Wreck Him, texting is apparently an option for most guys… and if your man gets this excited at sporting events, you might want to call it quits. Or call your mom to save you — we won’t judge. We wrap up the show with Ask Rare Breeds, talking redneck courthouse wedding attire and our dream partners on Dancing with the Stars (Karsyn’s still waiting on that casting call).

Why SEC Schools Simply Couldn’t Handle Karsyn
2026/09/01
Sometimes “Ignorance Avenue” is the best place to be… full of bliss, a glass of wine, and this episode of Rare Breeds. Karsyn Elledge and Caitlin Waltrip open their Emotional Purses where Karsyn learns a valuable lesson – SEC schools simply couldn’t handle her. We don’t tend to get embarrassed, but in this week’s Messy Draft, we detail things we’d do if embarrassment simply didn’t exist. The folks in Feral Feud might’ve needed that lack of embarrassment, especially a farmer whose bad eyesight led him to an unfortunate milking incident. In Text Him or Wreck Him, one Reddit user’s date surprised her with a garage experience like no other… and another tried washing her cheeseburger in the sink. To close out the show, we read off your comments reacting to Karsyn’s “Flower Guy” dating story from last week’s episode.

I'm Not a Second Option... But I'm Willing to be One
2026/08/25
A cozy blanket and an extra glass of wine won’t be enough to get you through this episode of Rare Breeds. Karsyn Elledge leads off the episode with a personal dating story that started in the sky, but ended with a flowery surprise… and is it really over? In honor of sorority recruitment taking over social media, this week’s Messy Draft is all about why we’d never survive Greek life (shoutout to y’all that do, though). “I Said What I Said” is back, and if you thought you knew what made the perfect dive bar, you were sorely mistaken. Text Him or Wreck Him is all new this week, with two back and forth conversations that leave us wondering why money is ever an object (especially when it comes to margaritas). Finally, in Ask Rare Breeds, one listener stole a Dale Earnhardt Jr. cutout from a bar, and Karsyn asks us all a question that leaves us gasping for air.

If You’re Asking If You Should Text Your Ex… Text Your Therapist
2026/08/18
Clearly, we learned nothing from last week’s episode… because, like Karsyn, Caitlin and white-water rafting don’t mix. On this episode of Rare Breeds, Karsyn Elledge and Caitlin Waltrip dive into their Emotional Purse – Karsyn was up until 2 a.m. at Hickory Motor Speedway, and the encounters she experienced were anything but normal.  In Messy Draft this week, the girls detail five things they’d ban if they were elected president. Spoiler alert for the men: you may want to hide your toes. Following that, Feral Feud makes a triumphant return… and we all forget the difference between fruits and vegetables. Plus, did Abraham Lincoln not have a car? In this week’s Text Him or Wreck Him, therapy isn’t just encouraged; it’s strongly recommended. Finally, in Ask Rare Breeds, Karsyn and Caitlin explain why the other is completely unfit for war.  Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RareBreedsPod Shop Our Merch! https://shop.dirtymomedia.com/collections/rare-breeds Listen to the Forgotten Bangers Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0Mx2DiAtNxSWvhMaND4q83?si=setCA7S4SRCb2srJ_KtcAg Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Caitlin Waltrip Didn’t Know What Bowman Gray Stadium Was…
2026/08/11
You’re gonna need a life jacket, paper towels, and a lid on your cup of wine for this episode of Rare Breeds. Karsyn Elledge details a rocky trip to Colorado that was both fun and fearful after a rafting trip sent her rolling through the rapids… without a life jacket. Caitlin Waltrip’s Emotional Purse is $80 lighter this week after her son refused to lose a claw machine game. In Messy Draft, the girls detail why being the eldest daughter isn’t all it’s made out to be. Being the family’s therapist? It’s simply a fact of life.  The fan favorite segment I Said What I Said returns this week, and one quote leads to Karsyn’s personal journey after her stint on the hit reality show ‘Claim To Fame.’ In Text Him or Wreck Him, one Reddit story has us picking our jaw up off the floor and spitting out our drink because… she slept with her ex-fiancé's affair baby from over 20 years ago?! Finally, in Ask Rare Breeds, we got to sponsor a race car at Bowman Gray, and Caitlin somehow didn't know they raced cars there.

They Warned Caitlin… Then A Security Guard Escorted Her Out
2026/08/04
Grab your wine, a cozy blanket, and your favorite chair… because we’ve got a lot to cover in this week's episode of Rare Breeds. Life-long best friends Karsyn Elledge and Caitlin Waltrip start things off with a hectic Emotional Purse – Karsyn spent a weekend at the racetrack where a few drinks and a trailer nap quickly turned chaotic at 3 a.m. Caitlin spills the tea on a high school field trip to the United States Treasury Building that saw her escorted out of the building by a security guard.  In Messy Draft, the girls detail five jobs they’d get fired from after just one day – and for Caitlin, her list hit too close to home. A new segment called “Guess Who” debuts this week, and the girls each bring a list of five people that the other must guess using only yes or no questions.  This week’s submissions for Text Him or Wreck Him had our jaws on the floor… and one listener’s husband had a secret prison pen pal. Finally, in Ask Rare Breeds, Karsyn details three things she’d bring back from her childhood while Caitlin gives her best advice for young parents getting their kids into sports.

Caitlin's Son Snuck Out... But Not For What You Might Think
2026/07/28
Karsyn's HOA president reached out to us... and we still can't believe what the message said. Caitlin Waltrip and Karsyn Elledge unpack it all in a diverse Emotional Purse to kick off the show. Caitlin details her son's attempt at sneaking out, and Karsyn found high heels designed for a squatty potty. In Messy Draft, the girls detail their top five most irrational fears. After, we dive into a brand-new segment called "I Said What I Said." Producer Ryan lists off hilarious out-of-context quotes from the girls' "quote book," and they have to guess who said what. In Text Him or Wreck Him, one listener's date went sour when the man reveals a drastic secret. Finally, in Ask Rare Breeds, Caitlin reveals three things she'd bring back from her childhood.

Places We’ve Cried (Ranked)
2026/07/21
Need breakup advice? You’ve come to the right place. On today’s episode of Rare Breeds, Karsyn Elledge and Caitlin Waltrip jump right into their Emotional Purses. Caitlin successfully hosted a triple date with her sons and their girlfriends, while Karsyn gives an update on the "short man." In Rarely Reality, the girls react to the Love Island USA finale and look ahead to the cast’s reunion. Whose relationship will survive beyond the villa? We’re still not sure. In Messy Draft, we list and rank the five worst places we’ve ever cried (spoiler alert: Mexican restaurants are plentiful here). Text Him or Wreck Him features a man with a tattoo obsession before Karsyn gives an inspirational speech about surviving a breakup in Ask Rare Breeds.

Get Real… Taylor Swift’s Wedding Was Everything It Should’ve Been
2026/07/14
It’s hot, we’re bothered, and we can’t not spend $100 every time we leave the house. But, Karsyn doesn’t have any heartbreak to report – instead, on this episode of Rare Breeds, Karsyn’s HOA apparently has a problem with clovers in her yard, and Caitlin’s son accomplished a major goal on July 4th. Rarely Reality returns this week, and the girls go DEEP discussing Love Island USA’s upcoming finale. Who will take home the $100,000 prize? In Messy Draft, Karsyn and Caitlin list five things they’ve done that would shock a Victorian era gal. Text Him or Wreck Him asks a hard hitting question: Why don’t men ask for our phone numbers anymore? Finally, we wrap things up with Ask Rare Breeds, where Karsyn and Caitlin get personal about a secret stash of outlandish quotes from each other.
