Buckle Up Buttercup episodes

  • Zig to the Zag

    The girls take on some obstacles as they make their way from Washington D.C. to West Virginia, and then Kentucky. Did it go smoothly? Absolutely not, no. They explain how the bus almost fell down a mountain and how fifteen snowstorms didn't stop them from enjoying their time with Ashley in West Virginia. If you're looking for a coffee in the area, Amanda and Noella tell you where not to go. However, they do recommend some great restaurants by Marshall University. The girls are holding on...strong, so stick along and don't miss out on the ups and the downs of their crazy adventure.

  • Thanks David from D.C.

    Dive in as Amanda and Noella take on their departure from Connecticut and head to the United States Capital, Washington D.C. Thanks to David, their day in the city went very smoothly. Other than getting on the wrong train, Amanda battling her anxiety behind the wheel, and Noella not knowing how to throw, they really did have the best time. Where to next? Glad you asked. West Virginia, here they come. Not sure if the girls can do this on their own, so let's sure hope you're coming along. Oh, and buckle up!

  • Bye Connecticut

    The girls leave in 3 days. Are they ready? Not really. However, they welcome a guest that has made this whole experience possible. Get ready to listen to a rant about a bleached jacket, a flat tire, and a car that doesn't start. Good news all around. If you'd like to know how to wire and run electricity through a bus, this is the episode to listen to. If you'd also like to know how to enjoy a steamy, hot shower and wash dishes in a bus, then, again, this is the episode to listen to. Buckle Up, they're about to take off.

  • Tested Positive, Feeling Negative

    Attention: This episode is more revolting than usual.

    You're gonna want to buckle up for this one because the girls tested positive for, you guessed it, COVID-19. In this episode, Amanda and Noella tackle, not only a deadly virus but a whole lot of distractions; from fun stories with weird doctors, car washes, and Worcestershire sauce, to having hot flashes, coughing attacks, and mic issues. In spite of it all, Amanda discusses in-depth details on how broke college students were able to afford a bus. It's not as big of a challenge as you might think. Take a listen, and enjoy some unusual attic talk.

  • Pretty Pretty

    Amanda and Noella dive into their week and discuss their eventful adventures in the bus, as well as how they met beach guy Tim. Amanda shares details about what was used to make the bus ceilings and floors as beautiful as they are and continues to answer questions that have been overloading her DM's. Be ready for a special guest. Also, don't mind the background noise and slurping... when it comes to editing, none of them are very tech savvy. All you really need to know is that this episode isn't just exciting, it's pretty pretty.

  • Crusty and Rough

    Join Amanda and Noella as they take life by the "wheels." Learn about how these two sisters came up with the idea to buy a bus, convert it into a home, and travel across the United States. Do they know what they're doing? Not really. Do they hope you stick around to find out? Absolutely. Their humor may be boring, but one thing is for sure, their life is definitely not.
