Kuvaus

Julia and Hailey are back in the neighborhood and this week they're getting into something living rent free in everyone's heads — our situationship with our phones. Specifically: is the Brick, the physical social media blocker that locks you out of your apps, actually worth it? Or are we just coping? The girls break down whether spending real money on a device to stop your own bad habits is giving "main character self-discipline" or just another impulse buy collecting dust in three weeks. They also get into the flip phone renaissance — people are actually ditching smartphones to escape doom scrolling, and honestly the vision is there, but is it realistic or are we just romanticizing a detox we'll last two days on? If you've ever caught yourself doomscrolling at 1am, said "I need to get off my phone" for the 47th time, or felt like your screen time report was personally attacking you — this episode is for you. New episodes every Wednesday, follow the pod and tell your neighbors.

jakson our dream coachella lineup kansikuva

our dream coachella lineup

Julia and Hailey are back and this week the neighborhood became a festival grounds because the girls built their dream Coachella lineup from scratch and it's giving exactly what it needs to give. They're pulling from the classics, the current pop culture moments, and everyone in between to put together the set list the desert actually deserves. No skips, no filler acts, just a headliner to headliner ratio that would have the whole crowd in a chokehold. From the artists that defined the 2000s to the groups dominating pop culture right now, Julia and Hailey are making their case for who belongs on that main stage and honestly the discourse alone is worth the listen. Whether you're a festival girlie, a music nerd, or just someone who has opinions about who should have been booked years ago, this one's for you. New episodes every Wednesday, follow the pod and tell your neighbors.
