Porch Pick Ups, Walking Pads, and Binge Worthy Shows


Listen Later

This episode is what happens when we sit down with "notes" and immediately ignore them. We cover life updates, corporate trauma, Marketplace porch pickups, and the shocking reality that it is ONLY FEBRUARY and we are already exhausted.

Episode Highlights

00:00 — "It's February, and we're already tired." We kick things off with life updates, mild disbelief at the calendar, and the universal truth that January lasted so much longer than necessary.

01:00 — Valentine's Day Energy (or lack thereof) Red shirts are discussed. Red lipstick is admired. Valentine's Day is gently exposed as a commercially fed holiday. White cake with white icing remains undefeated.

02:30 — The Lighting Situation We debut our fancy new lights and immediately wonder if Jen's eyeballs will ever be ok again.

03:00 — Beats Headphones & Survival Risks Noise cancellation: amazing for productivity, terrible for situational awareness. Shawn fears Tanya will be unknowingly kidnapped while vibing.

04:00 — Walking Pads & Accidental Strength Training Why are they so heavy? Where is the Olympic medal for dragging fitness equipment across a house?

05:00 — Olympics, But Make It Realistic Proposed new categories include: Sleeping, Late-Night Purchasing, Forgetting You Own Things, and Competitive Marco Polo-ing.

06:30 — CPR Confidence Levels Jen is certified. Tanya would "call professionals first." Honesty is our brand.

07:00 — Mark's Birthday Rules Just white cake, white icing, and lots of lack of fanfare.

10:20 — Romance? Hard Pass. Valentine's Day officially moved to the parking lot.

10:30 — Cultured Adventures with Adult Children Jen attends a play with Emalie, like the sophisticated theater mother she is. Nails, dinner, literature debates — we love character development.

13:10 — The Super Bowl That Time Forgot A riveting evening of… absolutely nothing happening. Snacks carried the event.

14:05 — Commercials vs. Reality AI Gronk. Confusing plots. "Help me understand what that was about?" becomes the night's recurring theme.

17:15 — San Antonio Flashbacks Hotel lockouts. Cardboard engineering. Shawn wandered shoeless through a luxury mall like a legend.

18:00 — Jordan's Facebook Marketplace Horror Story What began as Pioneer Woman measuring cups turned into: Porch pickup House tour Upstairs

Five china cabinets Only one decorated room We are STILL NOT OKAY.

21:50 — True Crime Spiral Because of course we did.

23:15 — Corporate America Evaluations Nothing says corporate America like assigning human beings numbers and wearing them like a pageant sash of disappointment.

27:00 — Evaluating Ourselves Like Executives Strengths: Enthusiasm, friendship, charmingly unhinged energy. Opportunities: 97 topics per episode (we regret nothing).

34:00 — Flat Tire & Christian Road Rage A reminder that bumper stickers do not guarantee behavior.

35:45 — Cute & Fun Segment 💅✨

Things we're loving:

TikTok cleaning products (Mississippi Whiskey and Saltwater Sol) DIFF sunglasses Walking pads that are actually treadmills Greek yogurt as dessert Beats headphones (harder to lose, allegedly)

41:35 — What We're Watching

Lincoln Lawyer — binge mode activated His & Hers — emotional damage sustained Bridgerton — gowns, drama, walking pad companion

46:45 — Bridgerton Party Panic Empire waist confusion. Wig considerations. Grand entrance anxiety.

50:40 — Book Recommendation That Became a Command A TikTok-influenced read so good, Jen is slowing down the Audible.

53:10 — "What are you saying Superlatively Yes to?"

Tanya: Putting herself first (WE LOVE THIS ARC) Jen: Energy audits & intentional living

55:30 — Journaling & Record Keeping Scrapbook-adjacent joy. Tiny photo printers. Creating "evidence the month existed."

57:55 — Final Life Advice Avoid porch pickups that become house tours. Journal like you're writing an alibi. Stay delightful.

Closing Thought

Life is weird. February is tiring. Friendship makes everything better. White cake with white icing is a lifestyle choice.

Thanks for spending your time with us 💕

With Love,

Tanya and Jen
