We did it. Season 1 of our podcast is officially complete—and somehow, two self-proclaimed “techtards” made it to 55 episodes.

From recording our first episode with no audio to convincing ourselves we understand mics, lighting, editing, and social media…this has been chaos, growth, and a lot of laughs.

In this Season 1 finale, we’re reflecting on:

  • The highs, the lows, and our favorite mean comments (honestly, some of you are very creative)
  • What we’ve learned about motherhood, work, and showing up online
  • How we’d describe each other (from ChatGPT’s POV…which was maybe too accurate)
  • Why Caroline interrupts everything—and why Eva brings it back (eventually)
  • And yes…whether the camera actually adds 10 pounds or just exposes us

We also talk about what it really takes to keep going when most podcasts quit before episode 10—and why we didn’t.

Eva went from barely opening Instagram to finding life advice in memes, and Caroline went from tech-challenged to full-blown content producer (CapCut and Canva in the house).

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, imperfect, or like you’re just figuring it out as you go, this episode is for you.

And…this isn’t just a finale. Eva and Caroline are just getting started. There are new exciting changes coming in Season 2.

Let’s just say…this chaos might be heading somewhere sunnier 🌴

Grab an expensive tequila, laugh with us, and thank you for being part of this with us.


We’re two New York City women talking candidly about the chaos of modern life, from relationships, parenting, working in and out of the home, to what it takes to stay semi-sane in a world that expects you to hold it all together and be #blessed.

We couldn’t find an honest and vulnerable conversation — so we started one! If you need a laugh, a cry, or just want to hear someone else admit their flaws and validate your crazy, you’re in the right place. Be ready to be… Unfiltered, Unafraid, and UnExpert.
