My Cousin Across the Street

This episode starts innocent enough — pumpkin spice lattes, sewing classes, and Dollywood dreams — and spirals into one of our most unhinged conversations yet. We go down a rabbit hole on internet fetishes (burping? feet? dirty socks?), stumble on a wall of "furry" masks at Spirit Halloween, and share the wildest secondhand stories about accidental innuendo shirts (yes, tits-and-ass golf shirts are real).

 

Along the way we cover:

🎃 Pumpkin spice everything — including pumpkin spice beer and BuzzBalls

🧵 Why tailoring is way harder than making clothes from scratch

💸 The weird economics of OnlyFans-style side hustles and "getting groceries" out of it

🦊 Furries, fursonas, and why we found masks at Spirit Halloween shocking

👕 The funniest clueless-shirt stories you'll hear all year

🎡 Dollywood, Disneyland, and Universal theme park horror stories

📚 Dolly Parton's Imagination Library and her incredible legacy

🍔 Potluck etiquette and the cheapskates who always sign up for "chips"

 

It's a chaotic, hilarious, no-topic-off-limits conversation between two friends just talking about life — nostalgia, fetishes, family, and everything in between.

It's back-to-school and we're talking about what it was like in the 80s and 90s! Mervyns was the GOAT and L.A. Gears were the shoes that everyone had to have. 

Mia isn't allowed to have carbonated drinks anymore and Liz needs wear bloomers or something because as much as we need views, we can't do it like that on the YouTube Liz!

 

What would after school have been without TRL, MTV, The Rosie Odonnell Show and every other talk show? It's back-to-school season, and these two cousins are diving deep into 90s and early 2000s nostalgia! In this episode, we reminisce about Mervyn's, Miller's Outpost, and Kmart shopping trips, iconic brands like LA Gear, Jordache Jeans, and Champion, plus TRL, MTV countdowns, and our teenage heartthrobs (RIP Jared Leto's My So-Called Life era). We talk 90s Halloween costumes, scary movie throwbacks like The Purge, perimenopause struggles, favorite tequila and boxed wine memories, classic afterschool snacks, Hello Kitty and Sanrio collectibles, Lego builds, and why Kohl's could never replace Mervyn's in our hearts.

 

If you grew up in the 90s or early 2000s, get ready for a nostalgic trip down memory lane filled with laughs, throwback pop culture, and real talk about getting older.

We're back and chaotic as ever! This week your cousins are spilling on everything from heartburn remedies and leftover wars to the real talk nobody wants to have at family events — toxic family dynamics, setting boundaries in Latino families, and why being told to "just forgive" can actually do more harm than good.

Plus, we take a detour into the best confidence boost you never knew you needed: the gay club.

Two cousins catch up and dive deep into nostalgia — Taylor Swift wedding conspiracy theories, private school drama, high school dances, senior pictures, first crushes, and the wisdom (and trauma) that comes with growing up. A candid, funny conversation about friendship, family, and figuring life out — capped off with bean burritos, of course.

Hi Cousin!

Two cousins reminisce about growing up Mexican American — from deli gizzards and grandma's tamales. They dig into the lost language of Spanish amongst our elder's generation, family parties with cactus casualties, '90s TV and music nostalgia, and hard conversations about generational trauma, boundaries, and finally choosing to talk things out instead of staying silent.

 

 

Hi Cousins!

Two cousins who grew up right across the street from each other finally sit down to talk about it all: the shared childhood, the dysfunction hiding behind closed doors, and the resilience it took to become who they are today. From '90s nostalgia and questionable hair routines to conversations about enabling, gen-trauma, and learning self-accountability, this episode is equal parts hilarious and real. Grab a drink, settle in, and welcome to the family, you're a cousin now.
