In this episode, we chat about the inspired beginnings of Jodi's hand-painted, crystal-designed cookies—yes, they're as enchanting as they sound. But that's not all! The Mannis sisters open up about their tight-knit family bond, and the delightful Momma Adrienne who had fabulous style, valued family dinners, and loved to throw a good dinner party!

The sisters parents, who owned a successful court reporting business taught the girls the importance of hard work and a good education. The girls attribute their parents incredible work ethic as the reason for the entrepreneurial spirit they have today.

And don’t miss the grand Season 2 finale—a mystical cookie "crystal" reading by Jodi! Courtney is in "Woo" heaven as Jodi reveals what their cookie choices say about them. Spoiler alert: there's more magic in cookies than we ever imagined!

It’s our 2nd annual Father’s Day celebration and we couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome back to the show, our own amazing father, Daddy (Glenn) Ashley. One of the best story tellers we know, he does not disappoint in this weeks episode as we listen to and then breakdown some of the best “dad stories” we’ve heard on this show.

From quirky dinner table rituals to family pranks, Daddy Ashley weighs in on some of our favorite dad stories from past guests. Then we dig into our own father’s father, Paw Paw, the original trickster, and some of the unconventional ways he used to entertain his kids. Whether a family outing to look at Christmas lights or teaching his kids about current events, his flare for the adrenaline rush clearly got passed down to our dad. Daddy Ashley also shares an incredible memory involving his first hand account of the events around JFK’s assassination in Dallas. You won’t want to miss this one!! 

We are dedicating this Father’s Day episode to our much beloved uncle “Doncle” Don Williams, who passed away on June 11th. Doncle was a classic, one of the most incredible, dedicated and loving father’s we know who loved life, loved his family and was a bright light to anyone in his orbit. May you rest in peace, Doncle. We love you so much, and we especially loved your show! 

Happy Father’s Day y’all!

We almost didn’t make it on air this week due to turbulent Texas weather that left Whitney without electricity for days! But thanks to their electric truck by Rivian supplying power to their whole neighborhood, the show is able to go on.

And that is a wonderful thing considering we have on two extraordinary sisters, Julia Martin, host of the Dream Your Life Podcast, and Aili Nahas, former West Coast editor of People Magazine. These effervescent sibs bring tips on how to manifest your dreams, the secret to being interesting and a famous Brazilian recipe that is without a doubt everyone in the family’s favorite meal!

We also learn all about their Momma Nancy who was a passionate chef, world traveler, international tax attorney, and even speaks six languages. Hear how her curiosity and passion for life lives on through her daughters and how she continues to inspire them today.

Aili and Julia reminisce on their colorful childhood that included family saunas, adventurous vacations and unconventional party snacks that pair perfectly with champagne.

We also learn how Momma Nancy’s generosity and compassion for others knows no limits. Always ready to lend a hand whether in Julia and Aili’s professional lives or in motherhood, this steadfast momma has always been by their side.

So join us as we celebrate this multilingual matriarch's zest for life and why it’s the secret ingredient in the sisters recipe for success.

Whitney and Courtney welcome Amy Cohen Epstein, the inspiring president and executive director of the Lynne Cohen Foundation and host of the women’s wellness podcast, The SEAM. 

Amy, who founded the organization with her siblings, shares her journey from losing her mom, Lynne, at the age of 21 to creating a nonprofit organization in her honor. The foundation is dedicated to combating ovarian and breast cancer through preventative care, education, and community, and is a true testament to Lynne's enduring spirit and love for others.

Amy reminisces about the vibrant and beloved  "Momma Lynnie"  who was a college cheerleader, a doting mother of four and the consummate hostess with the mostess, despite the fact that cooking was not her forte. Amy claims Lynne was a bit of a local celebrity in her own community simply because everyone who knew her loved her dearly!

Inspired by her incredible mother, Amy Cohen Epstein’s advocacy for women's health issues has created a path for female empowerment in a world where women often don’t know how to take charge of their own health. She highlights the importance of preventative care, sharing anecdotes about the foundation's work and the thousands of women they've helped over the years. Her dedication to educating and supporting women through the Lynne Cohen Foundation and "The Seam" podcast is truly commendable. This episode of "Hey, Sis, Eat This" is a beautiful tribute to Momma Lynnie and a celebration of the enduring impact one woman can have not just on her family and community but whose legacy lives on through the foundation.

It’s a Sis - Ter celebration today as Courtney & Whitney team up with the Sis & Tell Podcast co-hosts and sisters, Alison and Amanda Goldstein. These truly hilarious sisters will leave you wondering who’s interviewing who as they delve into Courtney and Whitney’s parents divorce, their commitments to podcasting together and how they all share a love of imitating their mothers’ Southern accents.

But then, we have the great honor of learning all about the fabulous Mommy Arlene! A Southern belle fashionista who sends a birthday card to everyone she knows, makes a killer "Banini bread" and loves a good skinny margarita.

The sis’ tell all as they recall treasured family recipes and memories from around the dinner table. We also learn about Mommy Arlene’s groundbreaking fashion career in Alabama to side splitting carpool stories where a broken horn or snow storm wouldn’t stop this high-heeled wearing momma from getting her kids safely home from school.
The love these sisters have for this generous, thoughtful momma who made family her number one priority is quite touching and you quickly see that the apples don't fall far from the tree.

We are totally twinning with these soul sisters who appreciate Southern hospitality, have a deep love for Momma/Mommy, and understand the rollercoaster ride of podcasting with your sibling!
