Neighbors Neighboring

Block Party Beginnings

Real life. Real opinions. From the people next door. Welcome to Neighbors Neighboring, where hosts Amber and Jen,  two neighbors (and friends) take everyday life way too seriously - in the best way. From lifestyle debates and social norms to friendships, family dynamics, pop culture, and the small moments that somehow turn into big opinions, nothing is off-limits. Real conversations that explore connection, community, and friendship. The drama may be real, but so are the laughs—let’s get this block party started.

Ep 35 - Small Talk & The Street Tree Survey

Hey, neighbors. Join us for a recap of Bryan’s fabulous 50th birthday and the Blood Cancer United gala. We're also getting ready for our disco murder mystery in WVA Manor - wigs, glitter, accents. We're ALL IN. (visit https://www.mymysteryparty.com/ [https://www.mymysteryparty.com/] to bring the party to your own street) We also take a hard look at public FaceTime etiquette (BIG NO), the unreliability of No-Wait apps and hard-to-get donuts (will we wait...or won't we). But, neighbors, the star of this show is our township's street-tree survey. You're not going to want to miss this hard look at suburban arborism and the opinions that separate us all.

Ep 34 - Skin Health & Aesthetic Procedures with SkinLaB

Hey, neighbors. This week, Amber and Jen are joined by Mistica and Melissa from SkinLaB for a hilarious and helpful conversation about skin health, aesthetic procedures, skincare myths, and why we all need to be de-influenced just a little bit. And if you're watching on YouTube, yes, that's rosé in our glasses.   Jen is radiant after her recent microneedling session and Amber is loving her laser experience. We talk SPF, washing your face, Botox, dermaplaning, and the difference between chasing trends and making smart, personalized choices for your skin.  SkinLaB shares some fave skincare essentials: •A good quality vitamin C serum (Skinceuticals CE Ferulic is their favorite and is the most well-studied) •Retinol (Skinbetter AlphaRet Overnight is a great place to start) •Mineral SPF (any brand you like as long as it has zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide. Zinc percentage ideally should be 10% or more) You can add in other active ingredients as needed depending on individual skin problems and goals, but this is the best place to start!

Ep 33 - When Bylaws Turn Into Bye-Bye Laws

Hey, neighbors. This episode includes the story of a power-hungry HOA leader gone wild (meet Carol), Amber grills Jen with a pop-culture quiz, and we confess that hyper-realistic statues keep freaking us out. Also: wedding cookie tables, DoorDash disasters, cat shenanigans, and a kid’s lemonade hustle that had us smiling from ear to ear. Just another week on the block.

Ep 32 - Mower Etiquette & Swimsuit Rage

Hey, neighbors! Amber and Jen are back with some fresh tea: from rage‑inducing compression swimsuits and body‑makeup ads to embracing the two‑piece life and feeling good in your skin.  New neighborhood chaos coverage includes the great lawn‑mower debate, mysterious hoots and prowlers, an Amazon dress ANYONE can wear, and other wild stories. It's cozy, messy, and totally relatable. Get the dress here --> https://a.co/d/05h3W2FU
