My Cousin Across the Street

Spooky Season Shenanigans | Episode 14

It's the most wonderful time of the year... SPOOKY SEASON! 🎃👻 In this episode, the cousins are back to dish about ALL things Halloween — from costume planning (Ghostbusters? Big Lebowski? Cousin Eddie?!) to surviving haunted corn mazes with chainsaw-wielding maniacs. We're talking horror movie recs (old school vs. new school), the true crime stories that inspired your favorite scary movies, and why you should ALWAYS trust your gut when it comes to people. Plus: DIY Halloween decor on a budget, the 7-Eleven gas app that's literally changing lives, why moving right before the holidays is a nightmare of its own, and a very important debate about Alani flavors. Oh, and somebody's son may or may not have gotten outed by a bestie's kid at a haunted house. 🤦‍♀️

Grab a cookie (crunchy, from a casserole dish, obviously) and some caldo, and join us for the spookiest, silliest, most chaotic episode yet!

In this episode of MyCousinPod, we’re taking a deep dive into our core memories! We kick things off with a trip down memory lane to 6th-grade camp—the first time away from home, the "great outdoors," and all those awkward, middle-school moments. Then, we pivot to the bittersweet vibes of Grad Night, reflecting on that final hurrah before high school ended. But it’s not all nostalgia—we’re also getting into some real talk about "the death of reading." Why does it feel so much harder to pick up a book these days? We explore our changing relationship with stories and how technology is shifting how we spend our free time. Plus, we touch on: The transition of sixth graders to middle school campuses Our favorite 90s brands (shoutout to dELiA*s and Esprit!) The evolution of social-emotional learning in schools today Whether you're here for the 90s throwbacks or the honest reflections, there’s a little something for everyone in this episode!

This episode starts innocent enough — pumpkin spice lattes, sewing classes, and Dollywood dreams — and spirals into one of our most unhinged conversations yet. We go down a rabbit hole on internet fetishes (burping? feet? dirty socks?), stumble on a wall of "furry" masks at Spirit Halloween, and share the wildest secondhand stories about accidental innuendo shirts (yes, tits-and-ass golf shirts are real).

Along the way we cover:

🎃 Pumpkin spice everything — including pumpkin spice beer and BuzzBalls

🧵 Why tailoring is way harder than making clothes from scratch

💸 The weird economics of OnlyFans-style side hustles and "getting groceries" out of it

🦊 Furries, fursonas, and why we found masks at Spirit Halloween shocking

👕 The funniest clueless-shirt stories you'll hear all year

🎡 Dollywood, Disneyland, and Universal theme park horror stories

📚 Dolly Parton's Imagination Library and her incredible legacy

🍔 Potluck etiquette and the cheapskates who always sign up for "chips"

It's a chaotic, hilarious, no-topic-off-limits conversation between two friends just talking about life — nostalgia, fetishes, family, and everything in between.

It's back-to-school and we're talking about what it was like in the 80s and 90s! Mervyns was the GOAT and L.A. Gears were the shoes that everyone had to have. 

Mia isn't allowed to have carbonated drinks anymore and Liz needs wear bloomers or something because as much as we need views, we can't do it like that on the YouTube Liz!

What would after school have been without TRL, MTV, The Rosie Odonnell Show and every other talk show? It's back-to-school season, and these two cousins are diving deep into 90s and early 2000s nostalgia! In this episode, we reminisce about Mervyn's, Miller's Outpost, and Kmart shopping trips, iconic brands like LA Gear, Jordache Jeans, and Champion, plus TRL, MTV countdowns, and our teenage heartthrobs (RIP Jared Leto's My So-Called Life era). We talk 90s Halloween costumes, scary movie throwbacks like The Purge, perimenopause struggles, favorite tequila and boxed wine memories, classic afterschool snacks, Hello Kitty and Sanrio collectibles, Lego builds, and why Kohl's could never replace Mervyn's in our hearts.

If you grew up in the 90s or early 2000s, get ready for a nostalgic trip down memory lane filled with laughs, throwback pop culture, and real talk about getting older.

We're back and chaotic as ever! This week your cousins are spilling on everything from heartburn remedies and leftover wars to the real talk nobody wants to have at family events — toxic family dynamics, setting boundaries in Latino families, and why being told to "just forgive" can actually do more harm than good.

Plus, we take a detour into the best confidence boost you never knew you needed: the gay club.
