The Q&R Code

Today's episode of The Q&R Code covers the twins most recent watches spanning from Perfect Match to Yellowstone. Quinn and Riley give their raw takes on their opinions of reality tv and its' stars and let you know exactly how they're feeling one week into their Peacock subscription.

Howdy and welcome to country bumpkin central! The twins dig into the current fixation on western culture. Why is everybody stepping out in cowgirl boots and workwear? Is it cosplaying cowboy? Is that such a bad thing? Listen on for Quinn and Riley's takes on the romanticization of ranch life and how you can have that effortless coastal cowgirl summer (without the vet bills).

This Tuesday, the twins are talking social media anxiety. Having a presence online often comes with other people's expectations, judgements, and perceptions. Quinn and Riley question what authenticity really looks like when posting yourself online.

Today is the twin's 25th birthday! And there is nothing Quinn and Riley enjoy more than celebrating each other. They break down key factors that play into their ultimate birthday celebration, which of course is heavily reliant upon them sharing in the festivities together. Listen for the formula, and stay for the sweet twin memories.

This week, Quinn and Riley dive into the homesteading trend. What does it even mean to "homestead?" Should everyone be a homesteader? What are the ethics behind the movement? While this topic is vast, this episode offers an entry point into the conversation. The twins also touch on ice cream treats for summer, book recommendations, and Riley's new addition to the family...backyard chickens!!

Last week you got three, so this week you just get one...Riley's first solo episode! After a dreaded airport overnight, she got to thinking about all the things in life that leave us quaking in all senses of the word. Disturbing, teeth curling, marginally annoying, or crumbling for the king of zaddies, let's get into it!

Hold on to your hats everybody because this week, the pod brings back the most special of guests. You know her, you love her, and she’s ultimately the reason this show is possible—Alli aka the twin MOTHER. In honor of Mother’s Day, the three discuss the power of female friendships and feminine energy.

This week is all about the movie that had the internet buzzing long before it dropped: "Challengers." The twins do a deep dive (the time stamp for the episode speaks for itself), and they reflect on the film's exploration of privilege, entitlement, lust, and the experience of Black women in comparison to white men. Ultimately, isn't Zendaya everybody's type? (IYKYK) Up top, Riley vents her frustrations about reckless dog owners and Quinn takes a stand for arachnids everywhere.

Today’s offering is a classic Quinn and Riley catch-up. With spring in full swing and summer in the air, the twins appreciate the air abuzz with life—though the carpenter bees, spiders, and insects are making their presence a little too know. Listen also for a coyote pack encounter, thoughts on blatant product placement, and navigating chicken health concerns (sending love to our sweet Goldie girl).

Aunt Flow, the red fairy, that time of the month—in a world with countless menstruation euphemisms, the twins are telling it straight on the good, the bad, and the bloody. There's no shame in the period game, and more frank conversations about women's health and cycles might be just what we all need. Some other highlights from the episode include a sushi date mix-up and inclusive healthcare for the trans community.
