Send us a textIn this episode, Bailey and I talk about how much we appreciate Sacramento. A lot of people give Sacramento a lot of crap, especially the people we grew up with in high school, but it’s got its quirks and perks. So, we’ll share some of our favorite things, but some of our gripes as well. We both moved here when we were really young but have been here so long that we consider ourselves as true Sacramentans.

Send us a textIn this episode, I am joined by Eldon Jones. Eldon is an aspiring podcaster, and he talks about his struggles with getting started. He asked how I started doing the podcast, how I planned for it, etc. I try to go over what I did, but the moral of the story is: Just do the podcast! If you have something you feel is worth saying, there’s someone out there who thinks it’s worth listening to.

Send us a textBailey found a Tik Tok video that mentioned that complaining is “bad”, whereas venting is “good”. However, I beg to differ. We love to complain, and we don’t plan to change that. So, the question is, when is it okay to complain? We list our top 3 grievances and determine if complaining really is all that bad or is it okay to complain.

Send us a textOn March 8th, 2024, my husband and I had to say goodbye to our beloved, Link. I like to think of him as my little cohost and he’s been featured in my podcast art. If you’ve been a listener of the show, you would’ve heard him bark or the pitter patter of his paws in the background. This has been possibly one of the hardest things I’ve ever been through, but I sure am glad I met him. He was truly the best boy.

Send us a textMy brother joins me in this episode, and we talk about stigma around our hobbies. Some people may view our hobbies as “children’s” hobbies, but who gets to decide what kind of hobbies you should be doing as an adult and is it really all that bad?
