    New Year, Same Us

    Amanda and Steve are back for Season 3, Episode 1, and they’re kicking off the new year burnt out, opinionated, and ready to spiral. From realistic New Year’s resolutions to spiraling into questions no one asked for, this episode feels like a late-night conversation with yourself that somehow makes total sense. In this episode: 👀 Is it weird when someone watches your stories immediately every time? 📍 Should couples share their location? 🌴 The Top 5 Happiest States in America 💍 Where people are getting married the oldest vs. youngest Plus, rapid-fire debates you’ll absolutely have opinions on: - Is peace more important than passion? - Ghosted or breadcrumbed — which hurts worse? - Is jealousy a red flag… or just being human? - Fight it out now or take space and revisit later? - Is being “too much” actually just being with the wrong person? This episode is honest, chaotic, thoughtful, and painfully relatable. Got a story, a dilemma, or a question you want dissected on the next episode? 💌 DM @beunapologeticallymyself or email theumpod@gmail.com For collabs or business inquiries: amandateam@bcreativebranding.com 🎧 LISTEN on Spotify + Apple 📺 WATCH monthly episodes on YouTube 💬 COMMENT the topic that hit a little too close to home ❤️ LIKE if you’re burnt out but still doing the most 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for honesty, humor, and unapologetic chaos Stay bold.

    Lyrics, Lineups & Group Text Etiquette

    Amanda and Steve are back with Episode 7 — and let’s just say this one’s a rollercoaster. 🎢 First up: Steve’s secret talent has officially been exposed. Turns out, he can actually write lyrics… and his brand-new single “Not Him” by S. Lyric is out now on iTunes. Who saw this coming? (Not us.) Then, we’re switching gears to reality TV chaos with Dancing with the Stars Season 34. We’re breaking down the celebrity lineup, giving our brutally honest takes, and maybe even making a few bold predictions. 👀 From there, it’s time to talk group chats — because apparently there are 14 official etiquette rules for group texting you should follow (shoutout to Reader’s Digest for calling us all out). We’ll let you know which ones we agree with, which ones we’re guilty of breaking, and who in our lives needs this list immediately. Current events are on the table, too. We unpack the latest about Sydney Sweeney’s dating life, and dive into the bizarre trend of billionaires inviting the entire planet to their weddings. Like… is this an actual thing now? Finally, we close out the episode in the most Carluccio way possible: phoning a friend. And not just any friend — Amanda’s dad, Gary. We hit him with a million-dollar question, and let’s just say his answer is peak dad energy. From music drops to celeb gossip, group text etiquette, and a little Carluccio family cameo, Episode 7 is packed with everything you didn’t know you needed.

    NYC Nights, Netflix Crimes & The 3-Date Debate

    This month, Amanda and Steve are back — and Episode 6 is serving pure chaos with a side of tea. We kick things off with a recap of the NYC premiere of The Home starring Pete Davidson — and our unexpected (and hilarious) encounter with Impractical Joker’s Q. Then, Amanda shares how she got scammed trying to order Labubus (spoiler: it’s as bad as it sounds). Next, we dive into the Netflix docuseries Amy Bradley is Missing and the jaw-dropping scandal that went down at the Coldplay concert (IYKYK). 👀 From there, we head into our unhinged advice column to answer one of the most debated dating questions: How many dates should you wait to have sex? Studies say the longer you wait, the better your long-term relationship will be…but do we agree? From celeb encounters to true-crime deep dives, plus unfiltered takes on dating, sex, and relationships — this episode has a little bit of everything!

    Things are a little different this week — the tables have turned and Amanda is in the hot seat!
