☀️ Welcome back to another episode of Twinnings!

Chaos + brain twin energy = surprisingly deep conversations. 

This week, we open up their YouTube homepages and.

Let’s be real. We bared our souls in the process. 😂

So, what does your YouTube algorithm say about your soul? 👀

Twin Energy. Slightly offbeat.

Come for the laughs, stay for the realness.

Tune in wherever it feels right for you. 💛 

Brace yourselves!

In this episode, we go full-on wholesome rage mode as we dissect the great fall of chivalry, from the days of Maginoo to the mess of modern Mema energy.

We're spilling tea, roasting society (gently but firmly), and delivering truth bombs that might sting…

But only if you’ve been tolerating the bare minimum in your dating life.

P.S. Anne😬's dog, Zeegy is the footsteps heard in the background. 

Twin Energy. Slightly offbeat.

Come for the laughs, stay for the realness.

Gather ‘round, night owls and shadow-watchers! 

This episode is not for the faint of heart.
 

We’re whispering our way into the world of Filipino pamahiin: don’t sweep after dark, and don’t go straight home from a wake unless you want spirits trailing behind. 

From Mayon’s silent judgment to Ilocano’s obsession with sweeping the ‘right’ way. 

But don't forget, Georgie and Anne😬 always make sure to deliver all the chaos!

Twin Energy. Slightly offbeat.

Come for the laughs, stay for the realness.

Tune in wherever it feels right for you. 💛 

Are you ready, 2 AM conspiracy scrollers and people in tin foil hats?

We’re diving into bardagulan theories! From the moon landing and Mandela Effect to Marcos gold, Yamashita’s treasure, and that wild Rizal-as-Hitler's-father rumor. 

Georgie brings the facts. Anne😬 is the conspiracist.

Together, we ask: Why do we believe the unbelievable? 

Twin Energy. Slightly offbeat.

Come for the laughs, stay for the realness.

Tune in wherever it feels right for you. 💛 

This one's for the OG Asian pop guys and girlies.

2000s kids, do you remember being glued to ABS-CBN at 5:30 PM? 

It's the Meteor Garden phase. 

We're diving into F4: the Taiwanese boy band that owned our hearts before K-pop was even a thing. 

Andrea admits she was team Lee Min Ho. Anne goes full historian on why F4 defined Asian pop culture for the millennials.

We talk about why they quietly disbanded (spoiler: no training, all pressure). 

We also dedicate this episode to Barbie Hsu, our Shan Cai, who made us accept ourselves as loud and at the same time, quiet girlies.  

Whether you were eight and confused or fully invested in the drama, this one hits different.

Twin Energy. Slightly offbeat.

Come for the laughs, stay for the realness.

Corrections: 
Anne mentioned Mel B but meant Mel C (who worked with Vanness as a judge on Asia's Got Talent). Anne said she watched the Chinese variety show in 2004 when it was actually 2024, and Anne mentioned in Ep #2 that Zeegy is a he, but she's a bitch.

Anne's mouth just really has a mind of its own most of the time. So sorry about that.

This one’s for the furparents, the fur-aunties, the animal lovers, and the ones who swore they wouldn’t be “that” person... but here we are. 

In this episode, we talk about what it’s like being furmoms. 

Andrea’s a proud cat parent (yes, she’s outnumbered at home) and Anne’s a dog girl through and through. We share what makes our pets so different and so lovable in their own weird little ways. Spoiler: cats don’t care, dogs care too much. 

We also look back at the pets we had before, the ones we still think about, and the moments that made us realize... yeah, we’re really responsible for lives now. Real furmom stuff. 

Whether you’re team bark or team meow, you’ll feel this one.

Twin Energy. Slightly offbeat.

Come for the laughs, stay for the realness.

Tune in wherever it feels right for you. 💛 

Welcome to the very first episode of Twinnings! We’re Anne and Andrea, two college best friends who somehow think the same, and laugh at the same things... but we couldn't be more different when it comes to how we spend our time.

In this debut episode, we share the story behind our podcast name, why we decided to finally hit record, and how our friendship grew from random org meetings in college to unfiltered life talks that now live online.

We also unpack the weird and wonderful feeling of being so in sync with someone who is still totally their own person. 

If you’ve ever felt like your best friend is your brain twin, or if you love eavesdropping on real conversations with no pressure to take sides, this one’s for you.

New episodes coming soon.

Twin energy, slightly offbeat.
