Today, Kat and Mom are back with another cozy episode — and this time, we’re talking all things books. From the childhood stories that made us fall in love with reading, to the angsty teen romances and fantasy series we couldn’t put down, all the way to the thrillers, mysteries, and heart-tuggers we reach for now as adults. We dive into some of our favorites, a few we didn’t vibe with, and those nostalgic series like Percy Jackson that still hit.

And — special guest alert — our cat makes an unexpected appearance mid-episode, so naturally she steals the show for a minute. All of this happens over this week’s coffee review featuring 3 Baristas, and trust us, it’s one you’ll want to hear about.

So sit back, relax, and grab a cup of coffee.

Today, Kat and Mom are cozied up in bed with coffee, and we’re getting into it. We’re talking about the rise of misogynistic male podcasters and why their narratives are so dangerous, weird, and exhausting to listen to. Then we move on to Karens, people with no manners, and the manipulative behaviors.

This one is for venting, ranting, and letting our anger out about disrespectful people!

So sit back, relax, and grab a cup of coffee — this is gonna be a good one.

Today, Kat and Mom are celebrating our 30th episode with a little extra glam! We grabbed some French martinis and sat down to dive into one of our favorite guilty pleasures — the Met Gala. We’re breaking down our favorite and least favorite Met Gala themes over the years, reminiscing on some of the best (and most questionable) red carpet looks, and of course, giving our full take on this year’s theme.

We’ll talk about what we loved, what we didn’t, and the celebs who understood the assignment. Grab a drink, kick back, and come celebrate episode 30 with us in style

Today, Kat and Mom are diving headfirst into all things college. We’re talking about what it’s really like living on campus — from setting up and decorating your dorm to actually making it feel like home. We’ll share our honest opinions on sororities and fraternities, the social scene, and what we loved (and didn’t love) about it all.

We’re also getting into the realities of college professors — the good ones who actually care and the ones who make you question your tuition payments. And of course, it wouldn’t be us without a little conspiracy talk. We’ll take a look at the famous Skull and Bones society and those secretive, invite-only clubs hiding in some of the country’s most prestigious schools.

And to wrap it up, we’re asking the big question: is college really worth it? Between student loans, stress, and the changing world, we’ll break down our thoughts on whether the experience lives up to the hype. Grab your coffee — this episode’s packed with stories, advice, and things you’ve probably wondered about too.

Today, your hosts, Kat and Mom, are taking a trip down memory lane. We’re talking all about nostalgia — that unexplainable, childlike feeling you get when something random reminds you of being a kid. From the music we had on repeat, Disney Channel marathons, and old-school board games to the phone apps we were obsessed with, we’re reliving all the simple things that made growing up so fun.

We also get into how holidays just hit different when you were little — like the excitement of classroom Valentine’s Day parties, trick-or-treating with your friends, and the magic of Christmas morning. It’s one of those cozy, feel-good episodes you don’t want to miss.

Sit back, relax, and grab your coffee.

Today, Kat and Mom are back in the car—yep, we’re podcasting on the road again during a quick little trip. This time, we're getting real about moving: schools, homes, states, and even countries. Between the two of us, we've done it all… and most recently, Mom just bought a brand new house!

We talk about what it’s like to start over in a new place, the emotional rollercoaster that comes with change, and how to stay grounded when everything feels up in the air. We're also answering some deep listener questions and sharing personal advice for anyone going through a big transition.

So buckle up, grab your coffee, and come along for the ride.

Today, Kat and Mom are diving into a really special episode— A 20s Survival Guide: From My Mom to Me. Kat is in the beginning of her twenties, figuring life out one step at a time, and Mom’s here to share the wisdom, lessons, and stories from her own experience at that age.

We talk about the things she wishes she knew back then, the choices she made that shaped her life, the ones she might’ve done differently, and how it all ties into the person and mother she is today. It’s vulnerable, raw, funny, and packed with little takeaways for anyone navigating their own chapter.

Whether you’re in your twenties or just reflecting on them, this episode feels like a cozy conversation you didn’t know you needed.

So sit back, relax, and grab your coffee.

Today, your hosts, Kat and Mom, are taking you along for the ride—literally. Come grab coffee with us and tag along as we run around prepping for Kat’s big triathlon happening the very next day. From checking off last-minute errands to walking through every part of the race, Kat shares what goes into training for a triathlon, both mentally and physically. Meanwhile, Mom dives into the behind-the-scenes of her figure competition days—talking nutrition, discipline, and what it really takes to prep for the stage. It’s a mix of caffeine-fueled chaos, personal stories, and major motivation. Sit back, relax, and grab your coffee!
