  • What Happened in the Kyle Rittenhouse Case, Astroworld, Turpin Sisters, COVID-19 and more (News Updates 11/21/21)
    Hello everyone! This is probably one of the best news update weeks we’ve had yet, jam packed with everything from Kyle Rittenhouse, Austria’s new COVID mandates, and a big WTA scandal to Astroworld, other crime cases and more. Also, since it is Thanksgiving week, we will not be posting this Friday. But please have a great Thanksgiving, eat a ton, spend time with your loved ones, go Black Friday shopping, give back to your community, and enjoy!!

  • Our School Story-times/ Dealing With Popularity

    Before you read: This was supposed to filmed and posted as our first Funday Friday! We filmed it a long time ago and completely missed posting it, and we just rediscovered it so if we say this is our first Funday Friday episode, just know that the timeline has changed!! Also this was a year ago so it may be slightly outdated in terms of opinion... (aka its embarrassing)

    Welcome to the very first Funday Friday episode at We Are! On Fridays, we talk about more fun and lighthearted things that teens may go through, including relationships, schools, our story times, weird situations, and how to deal with it all. We would also love to start doing Q/A's and talking about the things you listeners want to know. We could even help give our best advice. Today, Celine and I sat down and started off this first episode talking a little bit about school, personality, how we met, popularity, some stories that go along with that, as well as a little message on being authentically yourself.
