Send us a text The fastest way to light up a room during the holidays? A perfectly terrible Christmas joke and a kitchen that smells like something good.

Send us a text The season is loud, the lists are long, and somehow butter still ends up on the floor. We invited you into our real world—coffee cups, thrift-store treasures, delivery drama—and then opened the door to the moment that changed our year: a hopeful cardiology checkup for our son. After months of charts and worry, his heart is functioning like a typical kid’s, the inflammation is gone, and we were able to drop two medications. The relief rang through our family like a bell. That ki...
Send us a text A recycled Christmas joke reel hit 1.9 million views, a tiny gravy ladle became a microphone, and a small-town restaurant watched guests drive in from three states after a single video. That’s the kind of year we just had—unexpected, joy-filled, and fueled by a community that shows up for laughter and for lunch. We rewind our biggest moments with fresh eyes: the Cajun 911 operator skits that turned everyday mishaps into holiday “emergencies,” the gumbo reels that sparked spicy...
Send us a text A routine string of toddler troubles—ear infections, poor sleep, constipation—hid a rare diagnosis that would change everything. When Lydia tested positive for Sanfilippo syndrome (MPS III), her mom, Morgan, refused to accept “go home and love her” as the final word. You’ll hear how a nurse-mom turned her grief into a plan, translating complex genetics into a clear mission: fund access to gene therapy before regression begins around age four, when speech and skills start to fad...
Send us a text Ever met the legendary snack-wagon mom who rolls up like a mobile concession stand while you’re praying both cleats made it into the bag? We lean into that contrast—joyfully extra versus gloriously enough—and sort through modern mom personas with humor, empathy, and a lot of real talk. We start with the cozy stuff: a sponsor we actually use, cold-weather comfort food, and the magic of seasonings that make busy nights easier. Then we dive into the fun: sports sidelines stocked ...
Send us a text You can smell the gumbo from here—and yes, it boiled over. We’re pulling back the lid on real Cajun cooking and the even messier world of food content creation with our friend Hal, a creator, small-batch seasoning maker, and unapologetic believer in cooking the way you grew up. If you’ve ever been told you’re “doing it wrong,” this conversation is your permission slip to trust your taste buds. We dig into the practical magic behind Hal’s kitchen: batch filming five recipes in ...
Send us a text Need a laugh you can feel in your ribs and a moment that reminds you why your best friend is your best friend? We poured a fresh cup and pulled out a stack of offbeat questions that went from ridiculous to revealing in seconds—memory resets, “Otis” nicknames, zebra vibes, and the unglamorous truth about vintage sofas that look stunning and sit like stone. We start by testing how we’d bring each other back from a total memory wipe—what one sentence could unlock an entire friend...
Send us a text The holidays can feel loud, but gratitude speaks in a steady voice. We sit down with coffee and get honest about the small practices that change everything—naming daily blessings with our kids, leaning on a real-life village, and savoring the funny moments that make family life bright. From grandparents next door to kids with fast comebacks, these are the stories that turn ordinary days into something worth remembering. We also open up about partnership and risk. What does it ...
Send us a text The kettle hums, the drip pot breathes, and a kitchen full of thrifted treasures starts to feel like a time capsule you can live in. We’re pouring a fresh cup and talking about the “granny era”—that irresistible pull toward tools that last, patterns that comfort, and rituals that turn a house into a home. From enamel coffee pots that need no plug to cast iron that gets better with use, we unpack why old-school design still wins on taste, touch, and soul. We trade notes on 70s ...
Send us a text The first cool breeze doesn’t need to be cold to light the signal: it’s gumbo season. We pull out the deep, trusted pot and talk through the choices that make a bowl yours—starting with the Acadiana classic, chicken and sausage, held together by a dark, toasty roux and that unmistakable aroma that fills the house. We get into the details of how we build flavor with onions and bell pepper, when celery earns a spot, and why boneless thighs often win our weeknights even if bones b...
Send us a text A simple pastalaya video with no voiceover and a whole lot of heart sparked a community—and today we unpack how that happened with Britney Landry of Brit’s Cooking. From the sound of South Louisiana that gets mistaken for New York to the comfort of eggs and rice that floods comments with family memories, we follow the thread of culture turning into a modern food brand without losing its soul. We get into the real kitchen choices that creators and parents make: why jar roux isn...
Send us a text A swollen brain can’t wait—and too many people are told it’s “just getting older.” We sit down with Laurie from the Hydrocephalus Association to unpack what hydrocephalus really is, how it’s diagnosed, and why a simple CT scan can be the difference between decline and recovery. From infants with rapidly growing head size to older adults with shuffling gait, balance problems, and memory slips, we break down the key warning signs and the specific red flags of normal pressure hydr...
