Coffee Talk: Adventures and Laughs in Everyday Moments
Ever had a resolution go hilariously off track, sparking laughter instead of frustration? We kick off the New Year with our own tales and a collection of delightfully corny jokes that promise to light up your day. From an unforgettable encounter with a motorcyclist to comical adventures in a shoe store, we celebrate those small, magical moments that turn everyday life into a comedy show. As we sip our coffee, these stories remind us of the unpredictable nature of resolutions and how humor can transform even the mundane into extraordinary experiences. Share a laugh with us and let’s fill the new year with smiles and good vibes.
Our conversation doesn’t stop there; we take you behind the scenes of our podcast, showcasing the quirky places and ways our listeners tune in, whether they're on the road or handling chores. Dive into the origin stories of our beloved fictional characters like Leonce and Ms. Gertrude, as we reveal how real-life incidents inspire our imaginative tales. Remember the tale of the man with his helmet on backward? It sparked a Leonce story! Our blend of authenticity and creativity aims to deliver humor that feels just like a warm family gathering, leaving you entertained and maybe even a little curious about the next laugh.

Speaker 1:Yes, for you. Yes, okay. So I am just envisioning that our listeners are probably driving in the car listening to this foolery, right, okay, okay, and they are either laughing or like us doing this rolling those eyes, eyes, yeah, like what is happening right now. But those of you who like to watch this on YouTube, tell us where you are when you listen to this podcast. Okay, Are you sitting down drinking a cup of coffee, or you I mean, if you're in the car just kind of wait.
Speaker 1:Wait till you somewhere where you can answer or comment, where you're listening to this, where are we bringing smiles to you or our roles this episode.
Speaker 2:Yeah for this episode yeah, I know. For me, if I listen to a podcast it's usually while I'm doing dishes or folding clothes. I have popped my earbud in and listen that type of way I do that too, you do that too, you do that too.
Speaker 1:Sometimes I'm paying my bills listening to this, making sure Sometimes we have to. He sends them to us for approval and it's like I'm listening. You know my kids sometimes are listening with us how nice.
Speaker 2:Mine don't even have a clue of what we talk about on here.
Speaker 1:Well, you know what? I think it's good that they listen, because sometimes it's like stuff they probably need to hear too.
Speaker 2:Well, that's nice. Sometimes they say that's nice.
Speaker 1:Well, that's nice, mama, you know. So where are you listening to? I'm nosy. I want to know.
Speaker 2:Okay, I want to talk briefly about. You know we do a lot of real, uh content, like about our everyday life and we're very transparent or we try to be and uh, real mom things and. But there's also sometimes we make stuff up like our dear friend, cousin leon's listen y'all. Everybody's asking is this is leon's this guy at the, at the store? I see him at the store or is? Is leon's really? Blah, blah, blah, blah like people from our town.
Speaker 2:They all think leon's is somebody, leon's is made up. I, I'm here, I don't want to burst y'all bubble, but leon's is made up. But I will say this everyone, everyone knows a Leance.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:So let that be whoever you want it to be. So I'm not telling you just to take the magic out of it, but I am saying we like to make things up sometimes to make y'all laugh, because there is a Leance in every family. Correct and the stories I will tell you, though. The stories are usually based on something real though, like the bicycle. We literally saw a man on his bicycle with his helmet on backwards and we were both like what. That is one of those reasons.
Speaker 1:That's one of those times where she was crying in the car because I was crying back and forth, and y'all, if we could have had a camera on us for that back and forth right there, y'all would have died.
Speaker 2:Because we were both like Yep, so we knew we had to do a story about and it wasn't to clown him, it was just like we pretty sure this was an honest mistake yeah. But this was our layoff that day, that was our layón story that day.
Speaker 1:So when we see things you know around, out and about, we base our León stories on what we see around, you know. But yeah, león is not real. You know we had one video beginning Cajun Mamas. Was somebody died, remember, miss?
Speaker 2:Gertrude, miss Gertrude, oh poor Miss Gertrude.
Speaker 1:Well. Leons was her we said at first, leons was his mama Leons was her son.
Speaker 2:Yes, that's what we said.
Speaker 1:And Miss Gertrude. Miss Gertrude, yes, and we got so many people like, oh my God, I'm so sorry, who is gertrude? Miss gertrude, yes, and we got so many people like oh, I'm so sorry um, who is gertrude? And I'm just like she's no, no, she's not real we made her up because but it's something your mama says and you know this in our coffee talks and we get this all the time and it used to be really ugly y'all fake.
Speaker 1:We, we add a little asian, asian asian okay, okay, I'm thinking okay a little cajun, a little cajun, jun cajun thick cajun flair to our coffee talks, for sure, because we emphasize we want you to really feel like my mom is there or your aunt. You can envision your aunts around the table talking about this stuff because it's so true. And then we brought up and that's just something, the ladies would be. Poor Gertrude, poor Miss Gertrude.
Speaker 2:Because you know why we started it. I'm remembering back. We were like okay, we got to go to the funeral home, mm-hmm, but we're going together, mm-hmm.
Speaker 1:We're going to go together.
Speaker 2:We're going to leave together.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we're going to go for the rosary. After the rosary we're going.
Speaker 2:And that's the type of stuff that is relatable, because we that's how we do, and like that's how I know other people do this too.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:What time you want to go. Okay, the rosary is at seven. We're going to go together. We're going to leave together right after you know, and so that's how we brought in that topic, but making it a fake person that died, yeah.
Speaker 1:You know, and it was just like people were asking who's Ms Cartruda. I was looking through the obituary and no, it wasn't real, but it was relatable, you know, like and and uh and not to make fun, you know, but it was just like it was something it's all in good fun, you know, and leon's, and you don't worry, you will hear more about leon's oh, yeah, because anytime we think of things like like what's Leon's doing today Some people are here for Leon's.
Speaker 2:They are Like they are here for Leon's. I didn't really realize that until recently yeah. We got such a good response on one of the videos about the bicycle.
Speaker 1:About the bicycle.
Speaker 2:They like Leon's stories, so we'll have more of that.
Speaker 1:We'll have more Leon's stories and maybe we'll have some other crazy Cajun cousins coming along the way too. Yep, all right, let's talk about Miss Laura Yuval again One more time.
