This week was calm but full of progress. We talk about hitting 188 pounds, picking up crocheting as a new hobby, and staying disciplined with trading. We also get into the newest episode of Beast Games, react to the season finale of Percy Jackson Season 2, and talk about the viral penguin clip that has the internet split between “inspiring” and “this is dumb.” A little life reflection mixed with pop culture and internet chaos.

This week was all about comfort and resetting. We talk about watching The Housemaid (so good Jerika watched it twice), craving pizza and allowing some flexibility with diet, and doing a full Sunday house clean to reset our minds. We also reflect on how chores used to be the worst as kids — and how now, as adults with our own place, we’re responsible for everything. Plus, Jerika starts crocheting a blanket for our future baby, which officially feels like nesting season.

This week was quiet — but in the best way. We talk about sticking to daily goals, staying consistent with good habits, and hitting 194 pounds while keeping things sustainable. We also break down the new show His & Hers and react to the insane plot twist at the end. Sometimes progress isn’t loud or chaotic — it’s calm, steady, and actually working. This episode is all about that.

This week we went to our very first baby doctor appointment and got to see the ultrasound — such a wild and special experience. We also talk about staying consistent with diet and weight loss, practicing discipline with trading (even when that means not taking a trade), and stacking small daily wins like keeping a Duolingo streak going. Cozy, real, and full of growth vibes this week.

It’s our New Year’s episode, and we’re starting the year off with some absolutely HUGE news. We also talk about our week, celebrating a late Christmas with family, and set some New Year’s resolutions and intentions for the year ahead. This one is special — thanks for being here with us as life keeps changing and growing.

It’s our Christmas week episode, so we’re leaning all the way into the holiday spirit. We open a few small presents on the pod, talk about how Christmas feels different now compared to when we were kids, and break down the best and worst Christmas traditions. We also debate Christmas music takes and get into what actually makes the season feel special as adults. Cozy, nostalgic, and full of classic A.J.I-ness. Merry Christmas from us to you!

Week 67 was all about slowing things down. We watched Black Phone 2, got back on the pickleball courts on our days off, finished most of our Christmas shopping, and started wrapping gifts. We even went fishing on a whim (no bites, unfortunately), and ended the week around a fire in my dad’s backyard making s’mores. Cozy vibes, small wins, and enjoying the simple moments — this one’s a chill catch-up episode.

Episode 66 starts with Andre admitting he accidentally spoiled Jerika’s Christmas gift years ago — the biggest fold of all time. Then we get into the new FNAF 2 movie, the movies we’re planning to see next like Zootopia 2 and Black Phone 2, and a weird glitch where the song “Golden” by Huntrix plays EVERY time Andre drives to the gym. Movie season, simulation talk, embarrassment, chaos — classic A.J.I energy.

Week 65 is a mix of gratitude, chaos, and big goals. We recap our Thanksgiving dinner experiences at both sides of the family (and all the food we ate), and Andre talks about buying his first two prop firm trading challenges. We also break down the struggle of living with a broken heater all week and waking up in a literal 64° house until the AC guys finally fixed it today. Cozy, chaotic, ambitious — a perfect post-Thanksgiving episode.

Week 64 is our Thanksgiving Special! We try some questionable Thanksgiving-themed foods — including turkey ramen, pumpkin pie ramen, and Crumbl cookie pies — and give our honest reactions. We also dive into the best and worst Thanksgiving foods, the traditions we grew up with, and how Black Friday has changed from full-on chaos to online checkout vibes. Cozy, funny, and nostalgic — the perfect episode for Thanksgiving week.
