But this episode isn’t just about peppermint churros and twinkling lights—it’s about us. We look back on nine years of podcasting — how the show has evolved, how we’ve grown as creators, and how our relationship has changed along the way. From awkward early episodes to finding our voice, from learning how to work together to learning how to grow together, this is an honest, funny, and heartfelt conversation about what it means to stick with something for nearly a decade. Expect laughs, reflections, a little nostalgia, and a lot of gratitude as we celebrate where we started, where we are now, and what comes next. 🎙️❤️
