Pretty Basic Wednesday is BACK! This week, Alisha opens up about her mental health and what really happened behind her recent breakdown. Between the crime-scene vibes at home and her much-needed social media detox, she’s picked up some new habits and discovered the art of romanticizing her life. Meanwhile… SCHOOLISHA RETURNS, but this time at Remi’s alma mater, UCR, and suddenly we’re living our best 21 Jump Street x House Bunny lives. From sneaking around campus to the absolute madness of PR hour, it was simply iconic. Sponsors: Function: Learn more and join using our link. The first 1000 get a $100 credit toward their membership.

Another Pretty Basic Wednesday is hereee! Remi kicks things off with a story regarding the insane reason a random stranger was yelling at her. We share about how we found out Tate McRae was actually an OG Alisha Marie fan and Alisha opens up about why she’s taking a social media break, how her mental health has been and the ways ADHD has been playing into her mindset lately.

Another Pretty Basic Wednesday is here — and this week we cover everything from glam essentials (nails, spray tans, and even The Secret Life of Mormon Wives) to sharing some of our favorite memories from our Atlanta trip —plus a few wild stories we forgot to share from Miami. We dive (almost literally) into our aquarium adventure, Remi’s shockingly unexpected favorite animal, yes, getting kicked out of a restaurant.  Plus, Remi spills on her airplane food poisoning saga and we discuss the world of YouTube—kids’ content, family vloggers, and the rise (and fall?) of couples channels. And of course… the question everyone wants to know: will we ever see a Cal & Remi channel?

For all your back to school essentials find out more at g.co/shopping/backtoschool Another bonus episode coming at cha (because you guys keep asking for more PB 💕). This week we’re tackling all the juicy, messy, and real questions you sent in. From situationships who body shame but keep you hooked, to PCOS and the struggle of balancing hormones, stress and infertility —we’re covering it all. We get into dating older men (and big age gaps 👀), emotionally unavailable guys with mixed signals, divorced single moms, and whether that summer fling is worth your time. Plus: advice for someone who’s never had a boyfriend and navigating body insecurities when you feel like you’re just being used. We’ll also talk about the pressure of timelines, staying open to what’s coming into your life, and even give some bride-to-be advice for a listener planning her August 2026 wedding.

This week on Pretty Basic we’re getting real about sex with special guests Dr. Cory Pedersen (founder of Orgasm Lab) and Amanda Champion (lead researcher). From the psychology behind dick pics (including the recent one Alisha got 👀), to the orgasm gap, to the myths and taboos we all grew up with—nothing is off-limits. We talk about why men send them in the first place, how sexting plays into relationships, and what it really means for intimacy. The conversation also dives into the under-education of anatomy, where female nerve endings actually are, the truth about “size,” and how penis-centric masculinity ties into sexism and narcissism. And yes, we’re covering it all—from frequency of sex, to toys in the bedroom, to nipple-gasms and the many different ways women can orgasm.

This week’s Pretty Basic is giving exclusive tea and a little bit of therapy. 👀 Alisha may or may not have been the whistleblower on Taylor Swift’s engagement (oops). She’s also in the middle of a real-life love triangle (yes, really), questioning long-distance relationships, and wondering if she’s… a f**boy? We’re exposing her avoidant attachment style, the signs from God she may or may not have received, and why not knowing hurts more than heartbreak itself. Meanwhile, Remi spills on her big Nickelodeon animated debut (!!), and the girls recap their wild weekend in Miami—think drag brunch, yacht days, and plenty of chaos. Oh, and BTW… a major rebrand is happening. Say goodbye to “Alisha Marie” and hello to just “Alisha.” (Sooo sophisticated.)

This week on Pretty Basic, it’s just you and Remi — and she’s answering it all. From updates on her PCOS journey and pregnancy timeline with Cal, to how marriage has shifted her life and even the secrets she’s been keeping, nothing’s off the table. She opens up about self-esteem before and after her weight loss, whether she’d ever quit her vlog channel, and what’s next in her brand refresh. Plus: wedding regrets (and her perfume pick), short-term goals, decompressing rituals, her hair extension adventures, and yes… her thoughts on ZALISHA. If you’ve ever wondered about the future of Cooking with Remi, whether she’d vlog her kids, or if a book tour might be in the cards, this is the episode you’ll want to sit down with a snack and get comfy for.

This week on Pretty Basic, things get wildly random (in the best way 👀). Alisha drops a major surprise… and the backstory behind it that you won’t believe. Remi reveals who her very first cookbook customer was, what bizarre black-market item she’s tempted to buy, and how her dogs act out for attention. The girls also go down a spiral of conspiracy theories, share what they’re most excited for on their Miami + Atlanta trip, and of course—Alisha explains the ridiculous reason she got demonetized (and why she’s kind of proud of it). 📚 Preorder Remi’s Cookbook, Let’s Get Cooking, here: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Lets-Get-Cooking/Remi-Cruz-Parsons/9781668066836 Sponsors:  Happy Thursday: To find out more and find a Happy Thursday near you visit drinkhappythursday.com/PRETTYBASIC.  Cotton:  Learn more at TheFabricOfOurLives.com Tinder: Explore all the possibilities.Tinder.

Plus, Cal is back for round two of your juiciest Q’s for Men (you guys loved the first one!) — from how he knew he was ready to propose, to the age-old mystery of why guys string girls along, to whether it’s actually possible to be just friends with a guy, and… are guys just bad texters? 👀 📚 Preorder Remi’s Cookbook, Let’s Get Cooking, here: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Lets-Get-Cooking/Remi-Cruz-Parsons/9781668066836 🎥 Missed the first Questions for Men/Cal episode?

This week we’re catching up on everything from our weekends to the most random (but iconic) life updates. Remi shares what it was like growing up as a minority in Orange County, embracing her Asian culture, and even reflecting on little Remi—plus, yes, she’s been thinking about babies lately. Alisha talks about her painting era, her public apology to Katy Perry, and a texting mishap that had us crying laughing.

You know it’s going to be a wild episode when the customs officers get involved. Remi shares the wild story of how she found out she’s allergic to latex—and the weird connection it has to avocados?! Alisha opens up about her (very real) run-in with the law, getting stopped by customs, and allegedly smuggling something illegal into Japan. Plus, we dive into Japanese etiquette, signature scents, and the iconic celeb sighting that totally caught us off guard. You’re not ready for the chaos we unleashed in Japan — with zero regrets (okay… maybe a couple).

Pack your bags and grab a raw egg (trust us)—we’re taking you to Japan with us! From getting champagne-drunk in a purse store to watching Bretman Rock get recognized 30 times a day, this trip was everything. We hit iconic spas, got our minds blown at a maid café, and casually tried a snake venom shot (???). We’re spilling all about Remi’s emotional attachment to a raw egg café, Alisha’s hilariously random river moments, and a birthday surprise that seriously slayed—including a Minions moment we still can’t explain. Plus: Donki chaos, wagyu buffets, vintage GUESS finds, and a bug bite hack that might just change your life. It’s the Pretty Basic Japan recap you didn’t know you needed.

The wedding recap continues! In Part 2 we are sharing all behind-the-scenes chaos—from the emotional love letters and iconic vows to Cal’s locked jaw at the altar and a first look that went hilariously wrong.

The NEWLYWEDS are in the house and giving you the full wedding debrief—joined by Alisha and the iconic flower girl himself, Oli.

They did it!! Remi and Cal officially tied the knot this past weekend, and we’re giving you the pre-wedding details — and yes, Cal is here to help us spill all the secrets we’ve been keeping!

Plastic surgery, Peter Pan boys, and petty behavior—Alisha's solo episode is not holding back.

We’re diving into all things love, weddings, and the very real conversations that come with them. From Ashley Benson’s unexpected shoutout (where are our Pretty Little Liars girls at?) to the absolutely insane story of how Remi’s wedding planner ended up in the ER, no topic is off limits—though honestly, are they ever? We’re reflecting on behind-the-scenes moments from Remi’s bridal shower, the emotional toll weddings can take, and why trusting your gut is non-negotiable. Oh, and yes... prenups are on the table. Are Remi and Cal signing one? We’re talking through it all—and why having the hard conversations now might be the best gift you give your future self.
