This week we cuddle up and get chatty about how to stop your kid from swearing when, honestly, it’s kind of hilarious. Kate gets real about her creative crash outs, and we take your call-ins on Waldorf school and Taking Five — the movie we met filming that now feels like a total fever dream.
Tess joins us to unpack her current dating strategy and the spicy books she and Kate are devouring… while Joey passionately defends his very “respectable” slow-burn reads.
So tell us: are you more of a Joey reader or a Kate reader?
Call in. Ask us anything. Overshare a little or a lot. We’re listening.

Kate and Joey like you’ve never heard them before! 18 years together, running Mr. Kate and two kids later, we still have so much to talk about including keeping the spark alive with what…choremance?!, comparing our wildly different algorithms and what’s in them and sharing what we’ve been dm’ing each other lately. Kate names her Creative Spark of the week, taking inspiration from the analogue bag trend but putting it on wheels. Creative Weirdos call in to our phone line, questions ensue (worst DIY? Biggest insecurity?), and Kate’s sister joins us to dive into the world of dark-romantasy books and we discuss our love of MM books (yes, including Heated Rivalry), Romantasy and well..other ahem, things like scaring Joey with the plot of Morning Glory Milking Farm.  Call in, ask us anything, overshare a little or a lot - we're listening: 1-844-RUG-CHAT and don’t forget to please follow along wherever you get your podcasts and leave a 5 star review!

Rug Cuddle (with Us) is a cozy, funny lifestyle podcast about living a creative life in the real world.

Hosted by Mr. Kate (aka Kate Albrecht), known for helping millions tap into their inner creative weirdo, and her husband Joey Zehr, who brings the practical to the whimsical—keeping the glitter out of the engine—Rug Cuddle (with Us) explores creativity, relationships, parenting, wellness, and modern life through honest conversation, bite-sized segments, and a lot of laughter.

Inspired by Kate and Joey’s real-life “Rug Cuddles” from their popular YouTube home makeover videos—intentional pauses to reflect, reset, and celebrate progress—each episode invites listeners to slow down, feel less alone, and reconnect with what makes life feel whimsical and fun.

Expect listener Q&As, relationship real talk, creative inspiration, and unfiltered conversations—plus a recurring call with Kate’s little sister Tess for bookish chaos and single-life perspective.

If you’re craving creativity without pressure, advice without judgment, and a podcast that feels like sitting on the rug with people who get it—this is your place.

New episodes weekly. Come join us on the rug.
