Childhood Memories of the 90s—take a trip back to when photo albums were the real cloud storage, Dunkaroos were currency, and siblings could live the same day but remember it completely differently.

In this episode, Lisa and Josh dive deep into their childhood memories, debating 90s snack wars, the great Nintendo vs Sega divide, and whether mom’s “wooden spoon” was a legitimate threat or just parental theater. From Paula Abdul topping the charts in 1989 to the days before iCloud, they explore how our memories shape the stories we tell—and why your sibling probably swears you’re remembering it all wrong.

Welcome to Brother Sister Whatever — the podcast where growing up GenX or Xennial meant chasing streetlights, drinking from the hose, and emotionally imprinting on after-school specials.

Hosted by real-life siblings Lisa (the burnt-out perfectionist) and Josh (the strategic underachiever), this is your bi-weekly dose of 80s/90s nostalgia, brutally honest midlife commentary, and ongoing sibling debates about whose memory is actually right.

Hit play, and let the memory wars begin.

We made it. 24 episodes later, Season One is officially a wrap.
What started with Lisa’s fear of recording and Josh’s “let’s just wing it” energy has grown into something real: a structured (but still chaotic) sibling podcast built on honesty, growth, and way too many personal confessions.

In our Season 1 finale, we reflect on:
→ The evolution of our dynamic (spoiler: we barely disagreed)
→ Josh’s mic-drop moment about seeking peace over happiness
→ Lisa’s emotional off-mic breakdown that almost made it into the episode
→ Our first-ever “BSW Chaos Awards” 🎉
→ Why embracing imperfection was the best decision we made

Biggest surprise? This whole thing made us closer. And somehow, a little wiser.

Whether you've been with us from day one or just discovered us, thank you for being part of our journey. Season Two is just around the corner—same siblings, fresh perspectives, more structured chaos. And maybe even some guests 👀

Josh and Lisa say goodbye to their most chaotic segment ever, the Weekly What If, revisiting six favorite questions and debuting two brand new ones to open and close this beautiful mess.

• Josh would choose to live in Dragon Ball Z as Goku, while Lisa prefers Sweet Valley High books as a sidekick character
• Lisa would travel back to the 1990s which she calls "her decade," while Josh acknowledges he's happiest in the present
• If they could master any skill instantly, Lisa surprisingly chooses self-defense while Josh wants psychological profiling abilities
• They debate how social interactions would change if everyone wore visible meters showing their social battery levels
• Josh would smuggle physical comfort items like soft clothes if comfort things became illegal, while Lisa would smuggle comfort foods
• Both find appeal in disconnecting from technology, though Lisa has reservations about roughing it outdoors
• The episode ends with a nostalgic discussion about The Wonder Years' narrative style

Stay tuned for our new season with exciting new segments you won't want to miss!

What’s the lie you tell yourself the most? “I don’t care what people think”? “I’ll do it later”? “I’m fine”?

In this reflective rewatch of our most-downloaded episode ever, Lisa and Josh revisit The Lies We Tell Ourselves—and things hit a little harder the second time around. From quiet self-deceptions to white lies we tell our kids, this episode explores how our relationship with truth shifts over time.

17:26 – "I Am Enough" Affirmations
21:40 – Liar Liar This-or-That Showdown

✨ Inside this episode:

• The real cost of "I'll do it later"
• Why “I don’t care what people think” is rarely true
• When it’s okay to lie to your kids—and when it’s not
• How affirmations start to feel real only after the hard work
• A final showdown of the social lies we all tell (yes, “I didn’t see your text” made the list)

What’s the difference between real self-care and just...numbing out? In this rewatch of one of our most popular episodes, Lisa and Josh break down the blurred line between authentic self-care and self-indulgent habits that leave you drained.

With fresh commentary from both masculine and feminine perspectives, they ask:

• Is self-care about bubble baths or boundaries?
• Are men still made to feel guilty for resting?
• Can gaming, snacks, and silence count as self-care?
• How do you tell if something actually recharges you—or just avoids your burnout?

You’ll learn how to spot what actually works for your wellbeing, how social media has warped the self-care conversation, and why kids might be the real self-care gurus.

Key topics:

• Difference between self-care and self-indulgence
• Setting boundaries as the ultimate act of self-care
• Gender and self-care: the unspoken male experience
• Real-life self-care examples that aren’t Instagram-worthy
• How to build a sustainable self-care practice that actually sticks

📌 Whether you’re navigating burnout, setting new boundaries, or just trying to care without guilt—this one’s for you.

Remember when summer meant biking until the streetlights came on, catching fireflies, and dodging the neighbor’s terrifying dog? In this nostalgia-heavy episode, we’re throwing it back to the 90s—when summer was sticky, chaotic, and absolutely glorious.

From PEI farm adventures and popsicle brain freezes to street hockey and reading under a box fan, Lisa and Josh swap stories of childhood freedom and the moment summer stopped feeling like… summer. Adulting hit hard—but we’re still trying to reclaim a little of that old-school magic (minus the mosquitoes).

☀️ Topics include:

• Why 90s summers felt limitless
• The chores that weirdly felt like adventures
• The exact moment summer changed forever
• Can adult summers ever hit the same?
• The unexpected joy of crafting your own traditions
