In this episode, Aimee opens up about her lifelong battle with acne—first enduring the harrowing side effects of Accutane (nosebleeds, suicidal depression, but flawless skin) only for pre-menopause to bring her breakouts back with a vengeance. Meanwhile, Roo is just trying to figure out why shampoo and conditioner bottles are never the same size. Aimee confesses to using a 3-in-1 (cue Roo accusing her of being a man).

Roo is loving HelloFresh (not sponsored), but Aimee finds the portions impossible for her household of three. Plus, Aimee’s NYC trip took a chaotic turn when all her bank accounts locked her out—until the universe gifted her some found street cash.

Aimee also had a realtor over and reassured her that her house definitely isn’t haunted—only to learn that everyone says that. And in a moment of hard-hitting honesty, the duo admits that part of dating and marrying men is just so they have someone to answer the door when things get scary.

Skincare struggles, ridiculous revelations, and more—come get cozy in the fort!

The fort is buzzing with life this week—Aimee is getting recognized in the streets by Pillow Princesses, Roo’s beloved lime tree is budding, and Philippe the cat continues his anti-capitalist agenda.

Roo opens up about her fierce competitive streak in acting class, grappling with the unfairness of naturally charismatic people (how dare they?!). Aimee helps her unpack her deep-rooted need to be the best—blame it on that classic Indian overachiever energy. The duo also explore the pitfalls of the creative hustle and the overall commodification of art.

Meanwhile, Aimee finally found the perfect Florida-friendly slippers—only for them to break within a week (thanks, planned obsolescence!). She also rants about the struggle of fixing her dryer, while Roo dreams of opening an Indian sweet bakery.

Plus, Aimee brags about being a New York jet-setter, Roo preps for an upcoming cruise (without Aimee, no third-wheeling allowed), and the Nafasat chapstick changes Aimee’s skincare game forever.

Come for the comedy, stay for the chaos—this episode has it all!

In this episode, Roo and Aimee bring the fort to Catalyst Studio, recorded by Tom Casey. The duo plans to release the full video on YouTube later this week.

Aimee delves into the transformative power of deep house cleaning, claiming it can (at least temporarily) make life feel fixable. She also gushes about her bug lady, who she’s determined to befriend, but is concerned that there will always be issues with their power dynamic.

When it comes to long drives, the hosts couldn’t be more different. Roo and her boyfriend bond over self-help audiobooks (though Aimee is convinced it’s all part of a subtle improvement campaign), while Aimee and her husband embrace the silence. Both agree: the hardest part of road trips with your partner is realizing you’ve already discussed everything.

It’s a cozy, quirky episode full of laughs, relatable moments, and a surprising dose of slug envy!

This special episode was recorded live at Lil’ Indies, a beloved Orlando bar where Roo and Aimee have hosted countless comedy shows. Known for its cozy atmosphere and delicious drinks (though we’re not sponsored by neighboring restaurant Plantees), Lil’ Indies set the perfect stage for an unforgettable night.

PLEASE KNOW that this is a live recording and Aimee messed up the original recording, so we used the audio from Roo’s camera. WE ARE LEARNING AS WE GO PEOPLE! So, there are some background noises and weird edits and cuts and you know what, you will just feel like a real live experience while you listen to this, which we absolutely meant to do.

This episode featured guest comedians Jazmynne Sierra and Jason Montilla. Jazmynne shared a wild story about booking Roo and Aimee for a show last year, where she met her dad and his family for the first time.

Roo discussed her decision to avoid pork and gelatin, while Aimee tackled the true meaning behind “this little piggy went to the market.” The duo also dove into audience questions like, “How do you sleep at night?” and riffed on petroleum jelly and first tattoos—though thanks to a mishap with Aimee’s music setup, the full recording didn’t survive.

This week, Roo and Aimee dive into cults, canned fish, and cucumbers with a special guest: Roo’s cat, Philippe, who has to leave to do his taxes. The episode kicks off with Roo’s Costco salmon mix-up, leading to a deep dive into her love for tinned fish and a plan for a tin fish party, complete with a side of potential mercury poisoning. Meanwhile, Aimee is not on board and insists that cult documentaries are her true obsession. She breaks down the classic cult formula: fresh food, anti-capitalism, and then—inevitably—one guy ruining it all with weird power trips and sex stuff. (Improv, they realize, is their own little cult—minus the sex, plus tinned fish sales.)

Roo also shares her new gardening hobby, starting with garlic and cucumbers, only to discover it’s way more expensive and labor-intensive than she thought. The pair reminisce about growing up with no money, eating sandwich crusts, and Roo sneaking cocoa powder as a forbidden sweet treat.

Sprinkle in some laughs about Philippe’s black toe-beans, feet videos, accepting compliments as women, and their love for Daytona comedy, and you’ve got a perfectly cozy, unhinged episode of Pillow Fort!

This week in the fort, Roo and Aimee serve up a slice of Southern charm (and chaos) with a fresh new episode! Roo introduces her lime tree baby, affectionately given both French and Italian names, and learns that her new role as a lime mom excludes her from the elite SINKs and DINKs club. Meanwhile, Aimee reminisces about growing up in Florida’s citrus-rich days but doubles down on the fact that she’s not from the South.

The duo dive into accents—Roo’s internal monologue, which is a Southern twang inspired by 90 Day Fiancé and Aimee’s inability to stay consistent in character. Plus, Aimee passionately calls out TikTok weather "experts" giving evacuation advice during Florida hurricanes without a degree in meteorology. Spoiler: it’s not just annoying, it’s dangerous.

Grab a sweet tea (or a lime cocktail) and settle into the fort for another cozy, laugh-filled episode!

Welcome back, Pillow Princesses! Season 2 kicks off with Roo and Aimee together in the fort, this time trying out new in-person recording locations for even cozier vibes. The format might shift, but the laughs and candid conversations are here to stay.

In this premiere, Roo opens up about the wild world of hair expectations for women, and Aimee gushes over her love for Oppenheimer. The duo also dive into the art of not being good at everything and commiserate over the never-ending barrage of Kamala Harris texts.

Get ready for another season of heartwarming chaos and relatable fun in the fort. Tune in—you’ve been missed!

Join Roo and Aimee for their season one finale show, recorded on Instagram live with special guests Chandy Burke and Michelle Marsh. They discuss tough love, the addictive qualities of electrolyte packets and have lots of updates, fact checks, and re-caps from their first season of Pillow Fort. They also reveal the very special, very non-sexy name of their podcast listeners and fans. Don't miss it!!!!

Note: The audio is a little wonky on this episode. It clips in and out a little bit from the Instagram Live. It's still a nice cozy time though!!!
