  • The Honeymoon Fight & What Really Happened in Kyoto
    Nov 19 2025

    Guess who’s BACK and more unhinged than ever? We are finally reunited — Remi fresh off her honeymoon and Alisha fresh off the brand trip she was not invited to… so she just crashed it instead. Cal joins the chaos to help recap everything that’s gone down since we were last together, starting with Remi’s honeymoon in Hawaii including where slowing down was harder than expected, We’re talking: unexpected emergencies, the now-legendary pool boy moment, a dramatic room swap, and a good-luck sign that may or may not hint to the future.

    Meanwhile, Alisha shares the chaotic saga of her self-appointed “brand trip”: starting with a Bentley, to her adventures in Kyoto, wild fog machines, the noodle incident, and her pretty epic inner monologue that kepts us all entertained. . She also opens up about mid-flight scare — and why she’s decided this is officially someone else’s problem.

  • Alisha’s Mom’s Story — Adoption, Addiction & Panic Attacks
    Nov 12 2025

    This episode includes discussions of domestic violence, addiction, and heavy mental health topics. Please listen with care or feel free to skip if these topics are triggering for you.

    This week’s guest is a Pretty Basic legend in her own right — Alisha’s mom, Chris!

    From being told “girls don’t play drums” to booking professional gigs at 15, she’s been proving people wrong since day one. Chris opens up about being adopted and the powerful phrase she’s lived by: “I was selected, not expected.” We get into it all — nature vs. nurture, panic attacks, faith, and the journey that made Mama Marie the powerhouse she is today.

    This episode is full of those “ohhh that’s where Alisha gets it from” moments. Stay till the end to hear the rockstar Momma Marie in action— with clips of her jamming on the drums.

  • Greer Grammer Tell-All: You May Think You Know Her, But You Don’t
    Nov 5 2025

    This week, Alisha sits down with her new roommate (and actress you definitely know), Greer Grammer! 💕 The two spill all about how they met, their first impressions, and what it’s really like living together. From Greer’s ex breaking up with her just two days before Valentine’s Day and her birthday (ouch 😭) to their shared sense of humor and chaotic energy — this one feels like a true girls’ night in.

    Greer opens up about growing up with a single mom, not meeting her dad until she was 16, and how she found her way into acting long before knowing her Hollywood roots. The girls also chat about Greer’s time on MTV’s Awkward, starring in Netflix’s #1 movie Deadly Illusions, and what she’s working on now — which might surprise you 👀.

  • Fertility, Friendships, & Figuring It All Out
    Oct 22 2025

    This week, Remi’s going solo and getting real about everything she’s been navigating lately — from where she’s at mentally to how she handles negative comments now versus back in the day. She opens up about her ongoing hormonal journey, gives an update from her latest doctor visit (where she got an ultrasound to actually see what’s going on), and breaks down what PCOS really looks like behind the scenes — physically, emotionally, and hormonally.

    Remi also shares what a pregnancy plan looks like when you have PCOS, what she needs to prep for, her thoughts on when she wants to have babies, and whether she’s still on a GLP-1. Plus, she gets candid about the frustrations of being a woman and how she’s learning to navigate influencer drama and friendship breakups without breeding negativity.

    It’s honest, raw, and so Remi — you won’t want to miss it.

  • What Really Happened In The Midwest
    Oct 15 2025

    Straight from New York City, Remi and Cal are catching you up on their recent travels — from their Midwest adventures in Wisconsin (yes, there were cheese curds involved) to the whirlwind reason they’re in NYC right now and their upcoming Honeymoon!

    It was a Midwest wedding weekend that had it all — think: beer you can only get in Wisconsin, a venue fiasco straight out of a rom-com, and yes… a missing wedding gift. After all, you can take the guy out of Wisconsin, but you can’t take Wisconsin out of the guy!

    They chat about Cal’s upcoming color analysis in Korea (place your bets on his color palette in the comments 👀), his signature “pink-ness,” and what it’s really like being part of a bridal party when it’s family — versus just being a guest. Plus, Remi opens up about scheduling “chill time” on their honeymoon, loving a fully booked calendar, and what she’s hooked on now that she’s finished Scandal.

  • The Secret K-Pop Project That Got Cancelled
    Oct 1 2025

    We’re back with a classic Pretty Basic girl chat! 💕 This week, we’re catching you up on what we’ve been up to lately. Alisha gets nostalgic about how Stacie Orrico was her Britney Spears, opens up about resisting those temporary highs, and reminds us all to just breathe (literally and figuratively). Meanwhile, Remi has her ultimate fangirl moment over Katseye, finally finishes Scandal and shares her thoughts, and gets real about watching people jump on trends she’s loved forever as an Asian woman. Oh, and did we mention… the rapture? 👀
