Episode Overview

Hallie Batchelder returns with a typically rowdy, unfiltered session of “Extra Dirty," delivered straight from the chaos of post-Fashion Week New York City. In this episode, Hallie celebrates the “drought” finally ending in her love life, readies her body and spirit for a full-on “Sketchy September,” and dishes on sex, dating, flakiness, and everything that makes her NYC influencer lifestyle intoxicating, dramatic, and hilarious. Graydon Cutler joins for some wild Would-You-Rather and Q&A banter.

Main Segments & Key Discussion Points

1. Fashion Week Recap & The End of the “Drought”

[03:00–06:20]

• Hallie recounts her intense, non-stop Fashion Week experience:
  • "Fashion Week...holy. I feel like I got in the ass. That's what it feels like Fashion Week is. It was chaos and a lot of it." (03:25)
  • Out every day for 10 days; describes it as "hoarding myself out."
  • Discusses the influencer ecosystem at Fashion Week: "It even feels like there's seniors, juniors, sophomores and a freshman class in the influencer world." (04:15)
  • Acknowledges the argument that influencers may be "ruining Fashion Week," but admits: "Yes, I love going to the events. I love meeting new people. But, you know, maybe influencers are ruining that space." (05:11)
• Reflections on turning 28 soon (September 30): Hallie vows to party hard until her birthday and feels zero guilt about it.

2. The Drought is Over & Sketchy September

[06:24–10:05]

• Hallie’s six-month dry spell is finally broken:
  • "Oh, I got laid. Which I feel like is so important because I was like hitting a six month drought and I feel like I was dying." (06:45)
  • Story of meeting a “so hot, arguably out of my league” man, with whom the actual hookup was "underwhelming."
  • Hallie jokes about sharing her karate moves with the guy, signaling the night had gone on too long.
• Philosophy on sexual ebbs and flows:
  • Declares she’s entering her “ho era,” aka “Sketchy September”: "When it rains, it pours…once I break the seal with one man, that’s when I enter the ho era, what I call Sketchy September. And I plan on being extremely sketchy this September. I want to be juggling as many balls as possible. And I mean that literally." (08:10)
  • Frames “sketchy” behavior as not just wild, but necessary for “sanity...or insanity.”
  • "I was becoming an extra cunt, a mega cunt, a cuntasaurus, if you will. But here we are. Here we're back." (08:47)

3. Flakiness, Dates & The Assertiveness Dilemma

[10:10–12:45]

• Graydon weighs in on Sketchy September:
  • "Sketchy September is all about hooking up with people and saying yes to every opportunity. Even if that puts you in a sketchy situation. Okay, that is Sketchy September." (10:18)
  • Advocates traveling for sex ("traveling for dick") as a vital part of the tradition.
• Hallie’s strong opinion on flakiness in friendships:
  • "I could have a broken limb, and I will still make that fucking dinner plan, even if it kills me…Don’t be a flaky whore." (12:07)
• Awkward text from a Raya match:
  • She critiques over-assertive men: "He goes, 'I'll see you this weekend for drinks. What's the best number for me to tell you where to meet me?'...You’re not telling me how to rearrange my schedule. What happened to hi, hello?" (12:51)
  • Hallie admits she’s often matching with much younger guys ("a lot of 23 year olds") despite being about to turn 28.

4. “Sexy Segment”: Would-You-Rather & Sex Tales

[18:00–34:00]

• Hallie plays sex-themed Would-You-Rather, solo and with Graydon:
  • Favorite position? "I would ride dick forever. That's my favorite position. I like to be on top. I like to be dominant." (18:24)
  • Would you rather always need lube or have unreliable erections? “If there’s a will, there’s a way...I always have lube handy.” (19:15)
  • Farting during 69: “I’d rather I fart than he fart. I have enough eye problems as is; you think I want pink eye?!” (20:10)
  • Drunk sex vs. daytime sex: "Drunk sex is so fun. I know that's, like, really toxic and bad to say, but like...I turn into a porn star when I'm drunk." (20:50)
  • Marathoning vs. quickies: "Every time I have sex, I try to make it a marathon...Quickie means he's finishing quickly. And that's just not the vibes. Those are not the sketchy September vibes that we're on, ladies and gentlemen." (21:38)
  • Dirty talk dilemmas: "I could hear a fucking pin drop in there...He was just kind of staring at me like a deer in the headlights. And I was like, what the fuck is this?" (22:18)
  • Hairy men vs. hairless: "Sometimes it's hard to navigate the balls when everything's really hairy...if it were to be completely bald between the hairiest bush I've ever seen, like, I don't want to be flossing either." (23:52)
  • Calling the wrong name during sex: “Sometimes I'll like, completely forget who I'm on top of...Like, if I'm really blacked out. That hasn't happened since college. I’ve hopefully evolved.” (24:35)
  • Snorers or criers: “I once gave a guy a blow job in Miami and he cried after...Crying is diabolical and, like, weird.” (25:21)
  • Too small or too big? “I can work with too big. I can't work with too small. There's no if, ands, buts, and in betweens about it." (26:18)
  • Accidental sexting disasters; Hallie has sent both sexy voice notes and, ahem, “sounds” mid-masturbation by accident over Instagram.
  • Shrek & Fiona vs. animal roleplay: “I would try that [Shrek & Fiona] once...but I don't think I could do that forever. That sounds like a lot of fucking work. Imagine you just want to fuck your husband and he's like, put on the wig, babe.” (29:50)

5. Q & A: Listener Sex/Dating Issues & “Confessions”

[40:05–55:55]

• Never have I ever…:
  • Discusses sexual fantasies not yet explored: “I haven't tapped into, like, real roleplay where, like, I've, you know, met a guy with a, at a bar, done a wig, done, like, a full, like, bust down, like, outfit—that just seems like a lot of work.” (41:10)
• Why men say they’re “not ready to date”:
  • “Men are insecure and they want validation from women to make themselves feel better...They need their ego stroked to function...emotionally, men are seven years younger than us.” (43:00)
• Imagining other people during sex?
  • “Most times I'm picturing someone else. No, that's not true. If I'm really into a guy…I’m picturing them…But if I'm getting over a guy, I'm not ready to get over, I'm probably picturing the guy I'm not over with the guy I'm using to get over the guy I'm not over.” (44:30)
• Revenge and “crazy ex” confessions:
  • On a listener throwing rocks at her ex’s car: “We all have our girl moments and that's okay...but, like, I wouldn't like damage his expensive property because you know, we don't want to be paying for it at the end of the day either.” (46:15)
• When men repulse you:
  • “Maybe you're gay, maybe you like puss…Like, I've dipped my toe in the puss, but I...can't fully commit to the puss.” (47:15)
  • Riffing on how “men are disgusting human beings most of the time...they all need their shit slapped, like, right out of them, backhanded. Sometimes not that I condone that, but I'll look the other way if that's what you choose to do, sis.” (47:50)
• If your sex drive is higher than your boyfriend’s:
  • “That's what happened with my ex, he had no sex drive. It was like I was trying to fuck a potato...If you're begging anyone to fuck in your mid-20s or you're begging anyone to suck them sideways in their mid-20s, what are they going to be like in their mid-40s? They're probably gay. They want to get bent over and pummeled.” (48:50)
• Dating anxiety:
  • Offers advice as a self-professed “anxious overthinker”: “It's so easy...when I first like someone...I romanticize, like, the next 10 dates...Try to have fun dating and not put so much weight to those dates...” (50:30)
• Long distance in college:
  • "There's so much dick on your campus. Within 50ft, you could go down the dorm room hallway, knock on the door for dick...I just don't think long distance is worth it in college." (52:11)
• How to “lock down” a man:
  • “If you're even like, having to put effort into locking down a guy, is he the right one? He should be all about you...He should be begging to be locked down." (53:20)
• Her first time having sex:
  • “This guy had a massive tripod dick...It took him 30 minutes to put on a condom...I was 14, 15 years old...No one has an amazing first time…It was awkward, and it was painful." (54:20)
• Daily routine (light-hearted):
  • "I usually wake up. If I have energy, I'll use my vibrator. I'll take a shower, brush my teeth. I do my skincare routine. I always usually Uber eats Starbucks..." (55:15)
• Advice for shy girls:
  • "Smile, eye contact, body language, and just be yourself. That sounds so tacky and cheesy...but literally be yourself, because being yourself is what is gonna—you don't wanna, like, switch up." (56:30)

Hallie’s Tone & Style

• Unfiltered, self-deprecating, and unapologetic: Hallie revels in sharing the raw, raunchy, and hilarious aspects of her sex/dating life without shame.
• NYC influencer energy: Sharp, sassy, self-aware, and often satirizing both herself and influencer culture.
• Supportive but brutally honest: Empowers her listeners (“be yourself!”), but pulls zero punches about men, flaky friends, or her own chaotic patterns.

In Sum

This episode is a classic “Extra Dirty” experience: confessional, outrageous, empowering, and, above all, deeply funny. Hallie and Graydon serve up sharp commentary on sex, dating, and party culture, all while keeping it completely real about insecurity, aging, and NYC mayhem. Sketchy September is on—and for Hallie, that means stories, sex, and a lot of savage wisdom for her mostly-female, sleepover-style audience.
