It’s the Season Two Premiere of “Ask Ashley,” and the ladies are excited to be back in the studio together. This week, they’re discussing A$AP’s blanket, their vacations to Spain + Mexico, fantasy football updates, and why having a man who can fight is important.

Included in the discussion:

00:20 –  It’s Season Two, and the ladies are back in the studio this week with so much to discuss. A$AP and Rhi Rhi stunned at the Met Gala, and Ashley W has hit a new milestone in the friendly skies.

06:32 –  The ladies took full advantage of their hiatus and hit the beaches before heading back to the studio. Ashley W had an amazing time in Marbella, but Ashley N wants to know why there’s no evidence on her timeline. Meanwhile, Ashley N’s trip to Cabo took an unexpected turn when two shots put her down for the count. Did the bartender slip her a surprise, or was it all just fun and games?

38:50 – This week’s Dear Young Queen meme is making it clear how important it is to have a man who can back you up when you can’t stop your mouth.

Audio Post-Production

  • Delivered consistent mixing and mastering for all episodes

  • Produced and integrated sponsored content and commercial spots with a seamless, brand-aligned tone

  • Managed distribution to all major platforms, including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeart Radio, et al.

Impact

The show launched with a strong sonic identity, crisp production quality, and on-brand written content, helping it stand out in a crowded lifestyle podcast landscape.

Working with Gary from Due South Media on Ask Ashley: The Podcast for two seasons was an incredible experience.

From day one, he was an excellent communicator, worked quickly and reliably, and always made us feel like our show was a priority.

He brought thoughtful, creative ideas to make each episode better, handled everything from editing to ad production — even recording a few voiceovers himself — and provided the kind of full-service support that made producing the podcast feel effortless.
