Milk & Honeys Turns 20 (Episodes): The Big Tell-All

Kayla Becker

Send us a text

Twenty episodes deep and we're popping bottles to celebrate a milestone many podcasters never reach! This special anniversary episode pulls back the curtain on everything you've wanted to know about us as we answer 20 listener questions with the unfiltered honesty you've come to expect.

From revealing our first impressions of each other (Kayla was obsessed with Vanessa's "cool mouth" while Vanessa thought Kayla exuded confidence) to confessing what we'd do during The Purge (spoiler: it involves bank robbery and car surfing), we're letting you into our world more than ever before. We tackle everything from our favorite Halloween movies to the wildest advice we've received, plus share which celebrities we're manifesting as guests for our 50th episode.

The celebration takes a reflective turn as we discuss our growth as hosts and friends. We've learned that authentic conversation resonates most with our listeners, even when it means being vulnerable or occasionally controversial. Our partnership has flourished because we balance each other perfectly—when one might have given up, the other provides the motivation to keep going.

Looking ahead to episode 40, we're dreaming big: live shows, merchandise lines, expanded street segments, and maybe even guest-hosting on Bravo (Andy Cohen, if you're listening, we're ready to give you a break!). The highlight reel of our favorite moments from past episodes will have you laughing along with us as we remember how far we've come.

Whether you've been with us since episode one or this is your first time tuning in, join our growing honey community as we continue building something special together. Follow us on Instagram @milkandhoneyspod and let us know what you want to see in our next 20 episodes!

Speaker 1:

Hello everybody. Hi, Welcome back to Milk and Honeys. This is a very special episode, Because in what episode is it Vanessa?

Speaker 2:

It's episode 20, but I think your mic's too far away. She's too excited, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I don't want to yell.

Speaker 1:

My mic is back. If you get here the first time, hello, welcome everybody to episode 20 of Milk and Honeys. We have balloons over here in the corner. We're gonna do a little celebration a little bit later, but we are so honored that you have stuck with us for this many episodes because we were talking about it. A lot of people don't last to 20 episodes when they start a podcast, because it is a lot of work. You don't see those numbers right away, so you get discouraged.

Speaker 1:

Of course we have not gotten discouraged because of all of you and because of you.

Speaker 2:

And because of you, I was like, if it wasn't for her, I probably maybe would have given up on my own. But you know, that's why we travel in packs of two. That's right, I'm Vanessa Curry and I'm with my lovely host. I'm Kayla.

Speaker 1:

Becker and again 20 episodes. Yeah, so exciting, kind of surreal, and the last probably 10 of these episodes. We've changed the format where we had guests on in the beginning and now it's just been a lot about me and Vanessa and you guys have stuck around and listened to our stories and our shenanigans and our spaz and our ADD every single week and it's been a really good time and we've just continued to grow and we're excited to see what happens next.

Speaker 2:

I got to actually put this mic in my right. There we go, you think every 20 episodes. I would know how to operate. You're just excited. I'm just excited.

Speaker 1:

That's all.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean, look, if Milk and Honeys was a person, we'd almost be legal to drink. That's right.

Speaker 1:

Which is so exciting, unless, like you're in the UK or Canada or something, we're already there.

Speaker 2:

Right, I mean, you know we're already there, we're doing a little 20-episode cheers.

Speaker 1:

Yes, we're not going to tell you what's in the cup, but I will tell you it's got alcohol in it. Yeah, okay. Well, we've got a lot to get through to celebrate. We're going to make this episode all about the number 20. So last week we asked you guys to send us questions in anything you wanted to know, and we're going to answer 20 questions here on the 20th episode of Milk and Honey. So we're going to try to get through these as fast as we can. Yes, and some of these questions you guys sent were a little bit we're not usable, so those will not be will not be answered.

Speaker 1:

But for those of you who sent, serious questions and thank you, and so we're gonna kick it off with number one, vanessa who do?

Speaker 2:

we got All right. Number one we've got the grant at the grant. Oh show, what's something about hosting a podcast together that has surprised you or grown your friendship in ways you didn't expect.

Speaker 1:

What a great question.

Speaker 2:

That is a great question.

Speaker 1:

Do you want to go?

Speaker 2:

first, sure, I think, for me, I think us just being very open with each other. You know you have to when you start a business, you delegate, delegate different positions to different people, and so it's just the two of us, so it's.

Speaker 2:

I just love our honesty, if you know, maybe one of us isn't doing something that like needs to be done. We, we let the other person know, but respectfully and like the other, either one of us are like, oh, okay, yeah, yeah, let's, let's get it together. So that's what I love. I love our, our honesty and, um, we both have the same drive. So we're like, yes, tell me, tell me what I need to do.

Speaker 1:

Great, uh, and yeah, I think for me it's, uh, it's, it's hard for me to open up with even individual people, not just on a podcast. So I feel like the show has really given me like that opportunity to open up with with Vanessa and develop a friendship and not just talk to myself at home. Yeah, it's been really nice because we do enough. That's what Gemini's do. Ok, mouthful of Daisy. What's the name of your favorite band?

Speaker 2:

Oh well, you know you're like. I talked about this last time. My favorite band is Spice Girls. Yeah, it's always going to be Spice.

Speaker 1:

The worst advice probably is to I don't know I was going to say not to speak up, Like, yeah, that would be. I mean, I feel like I've got that advice where it's like, yeah, just stay small, um, and stay under the radar and yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, For life or career. It's like, no, Don't shrink yourself. Yeah exactly. No, yeah, when someone says, oh, it's fine, like maybe it's just over, it's just not like blah, blah, blah, like no, f off, f off, it's not over until I say it's over and I wrap it up, exactly. Yeah, okay, oh, your turn.

Speaker 1:

Yep, okay, carlos Baze, o4 Vibe Y'all, don't make these easy.

Speaker 2:

No, your guys' handles are tongue twisters. They get a lot worse.

Speaker 1:

If you were in a scary movie, which one would. Oh, if you and I were both in a scary movie, which one of us would be the hero and who would be the villain? I think you'd be the villain, I think I would be the villain. I think in my mind, the villain is the hero.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, because I was going to say. I think that I think we're both, because we both have a little villain in us, but we both are heroes. I don't need to be the hero. I want to be the hero I like being the hero.

Speaker 2:

There's too much pressure being the hero, it's too much pressure being the hero, but I would like to be the villain, who is also a hero. So it's like a love-hate relationship, but more love. Okay, like the Joker, like every like. You hate the Joker, but then also you love him. Do you think the Joker is considered a hero in any universe? I think in. I think in a universe, yeah.

Speaker 1:

He is. I love the Joker. Do you think the Joker is a hero?

Speaker 2:

Maybe she's more of a villain than we once thought Okay, next At JT Morrissey, underscore IT, I think that's what it says. With October coming in a month, what is your favorite Halloween movie of all time? The Shining? Now you Okay. My favorite Halloween movies is Hocus Pocus Halloween.

Speaker 1:

Town and Hocus Pocus, hocus Pocus.

Speaker 2:

Halloween Town and Hocus Pocus I was going to guess I mean, and those are like one, not one and the same, but you know, Halloween Town, Halloween Town, High Disney Channel movies.

Speaker 1:

And I guess the Shining was wrong, then that's not a Halloween movie, that's just a horror movie.

Speaker 2:

That's just a horror movie.

Speaker 1:

Yours are Halloween, yeah, a horror movie, yours are Halloween, yeah, yeah yeah, but I mean that's still yeah If I watch that on a random Tuesday. So I need a good Halloween movie. Yours are good. Mine would just be the Halloween franchise then.

Speaker 2:

Right, right, right. Yeah. Yeah, Mine's Halloween Town and Hocus Pocus. Okay, those are good, sweet.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, just cute from the previous episodes. Ooh, there's a lot of favorite enemies, oh man.

Speaker 2:

We're on this villain era.

Speaker 1:

There's a lot of favorite memories. I honestly think one of my favorite is when, at a previous studio, we shot a really good episode that never got recorded or all the footage got messed up and luckily our guest Danny Jollis, was such a doll and agreed to reshoot the entire thing a second time and I think it was a better turnout. But it was just really like it was so stressful I lost my mind, but we were all able to come back together and put out a good episode. We definitely were. It definitely showed early on in this.

Speaker 2:

What can happen. What can happen and also like maybe you know people who run studios don't like use AI when you don't know if it's going to work or not.

Speaker 1:

You know what I mean.

Speaker 2:

No shade, no shade, all the shade, but like shade. Okay, number seven, oh, number seven at PSU0112. What's the best sport for a date night? Ooh, I would you mean how?

Speaker 1:

are you taking this Like to play a sport, like to go watch a sport? Maybe like go watch a sport on a date is what I'm assuming you mean.

Speaker 2:

I would choose basketball. Okay, I think that I love going to basketball games. Yeah, I mean, I just like beat going to sports. Anyway I do. I'd much rather go to them in person than watch on tv, but I'm I'm gonna say I'm a basketball girl. Okay, it's just fast-paced, always going, it's fun you know football's fun too, but like it's a lot of stop and go, I'm like come on, guys, true, stop tackling each other stop playing the game correctly.

Speaker 1:

We're trying to have a conversation on our first day. Yeah, I would agree. I'd say basketball, or I think baseball too is just fun, because you're just outdoors, you're sharing hot dogs.

Speaker 2:

We're not sharing a hot dog I ain't, maybe I'm not sharing a hot dog. No, no, you get your own glues, okay, um, okay, number eight uh at zero, zero band in.

Speaker 1:

Have you ever been lost somewhere and just suddenly started to panic about it? Often, whenever you're parking in la and you have to read a sign that has like 20 different things on it uh, I feel very lost.

Speaker 1:

I've, no, I've, I've. I mean, as a kid, the grocery store. Every kid gets lost in the grocery store and your parents forget you. I think that happens to everybody. Yeah, been lost in the woods, going hiking, gone off the wrong trail because I thought I was like some big, like survivor. You know, yep, ableist, not the case. It took me like two hours to find a trail again. I just not the case.

Speaker 2:

It took me like two hours to find a trail again. I did that too with a couple of friends. We were like, oh, it's sunset, how pretty. And we didn't realize how far we were from our car. And then we start walking and it gets darker and the frogs start chirping, which means, you know, dusk is about to be done. And we all kind of stopped and we're like okay, I think it's time to pull out our phones, Because we were you know, we were on a hike.

Speaker 1:

Oh, we're trying to do the telepathy. We didn't. We're one with nature. We can do this on our own.

Speaker 2:

I'm like, okay, it's time to pull out our phones. Where's our car? Like we need to get directions to that.

Speaker 1:

Drop it.

Speaker 2:

We dropped a pen nine at Dan to back up. I love that. Would either of you go on dancing with the stars have given the opportunity? Absolutely, I mean, she's a professional dancer. Yes, I would definitely.

Speaker 1:

I don't think I would count, though, then, cause I did grow up dancing but you would count and I would never, and you can pay me to go on dancing.

Speaker 2:

Really.

Speaker 1:

No, no, I'll be there. I can host it, you know, but no, I am not.

Speaker 2:

I am not going to set myself up for that kind of humiliation. No, okay, I mean, yeah, I get it.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

You know, that's all I got. That's all I got. I the other day we I was at the theme park and I was like trying to get to the back, the security of the bag, security and the guy goes left line, left, left line, left line. I'm like I am the left line. He goes that's the right line, I left and right, confused the hell out of me. So you couldn't, I have to put my. You know, so I could not be a dancer where it's like left, right, left.

Speaker 2:

No, I get it. It is interesting to me, like that's so simple. But it's to me like that's so simple. Yeah, but it's like I grew. I started dancing when I was five years old, so I mean, yeah, it's, and I and I get it. It's just. I mean, it's just like speaking a different language. Someone tried, like when I try to go speak spanish, someone's trying to teach me it's like what? Yeah, but then when I try to tell them like okay, say this in english, they're like no no, yeah, so it's just like a yeah muscle, but yes dancing with the.

Speaker 2:

If I was given the opportunity, you know, one day you will go ahead and manifest that right here she's going to go as the star from milk and honey.

Speaker 1:

Number 13. At Craig by oh wait, craig, craigie my dyslexia came in there.

Speaker 2:

18. What was your first impression of each other when you first met?

Speaker 1:

I've told this story before, I think, I don't know if on this podcast I don't know if we did. Yeah, because I was like thought you were the coolest girl. You're wearing like I think you're wearing. This is a little creepy. I remember all this.

Speaker 2:

No, I saw these pictures not too long ago. These hot braided pigtails or something. Yep.

Speaker 1:

And I was so obsessed with her mouth oh yes, I kept saying she had the coolest mouth. I think I said something like oh my God, you'd be like a great joker. And I said I mean it in like the nicest way, because you have such. You could see all of her teeth and I was just obsessed with how pretty she was. And then she was so nice yeah. A lot of times you see pretty and it doesn't always equate to kind and she was very nice.

Speaker 2:

And I. We're still taking shots together to this day. My first impression of Kayla was just like you see, a successful person. You carry yourself just so poised and positive, even though that's not how we really are.

Speaker 1:

I'm not poised and positive or successful.

Speaker 2:

We're not when you get to know us, we're not poised and proper.

Speaker 2:

You know what I mean like when you get to know us, we're not like, oh you know what I mean, but like your energy just gave off, so so much confidence and and oozed, like I said, like that poise of like I'm just like a cool girl and you, you were like we we ended up hanging out all day. That day, yeah and I we don't do that with people. Unless we do, we do always end up leaving with, like someone that we met.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, true so I think that's always like a positive thing for us.

Speaker 2:

People like are very drawn to our energy, but very similar energies, especially when we're like yes, when we're drinking out and about you know, wanting to like, be social and stuff we're, we're very easy to get along with. So I think when we're out and especially we ho and say there's one person I think it was like with that girl was she was like by herself.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, and she just ended up hanging out with us the whole night like by herself, and I was like, hey, we met up with other friends. We're like, hey, this is our new friend.

Speaker 1:

We're like the kids in the playground. You're like always to come home with, like a new friend. I was that kid. I'm like on the seesaw. Can you come over for dinner? Where did you find this kid?

Speaker 2:

Where's the Paris? Can we have a sleepover Exactly?

Speaker 1:

That's us Yep Love it. So if you see us out and about, we'll probably be nice to you. Yeah, just buy us a shot of tequila. Exactly, that's all it takes. That's all it takes. Okay, number 14. L? What is going on with these names? What's one retro fad you love to see come back?

Speaker 2:

oh, we talked about this. Yeah, I, I think not that they're completely gone, but they're not as popular.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, roller rinks so much fun, as kids like yeah, every birthday party was a roller rink, you get some pizzas and you would just skate for hours I love a roller rink and I think there might still be one in la somewhere. It's not in the best part of la, of course only any roller rinks were ever in the best part of anywhere we always go to like yeah, like you don't realize it as a kid.

Speaker 2:

But then when I went as an adult I was like oh, we used to come here to get a little sketch, but like cool, like I think a lot of the pedophiles probably hung out out back, for sure, but

Speaker 2:

we as kids, we were just blissfully unaware Yep, but I would love to see more of them pop up in better parts of the city. Yes, agreed, maybe we'll start one. Number 15. At Marquise York, 24,. What's your favorite food to eat on a cheat day? Every day is a cheat day food to eat on a cheat day.

Speaker 1:

Every day is a cheat day, but I will say I love pizza and hot wings with lots of ranch dressing. That's probably like a big go-to for me Mine's pizza.

Speaker 2:

I think last week or a couple weeks ago I had pizza, Not like a full thing of pizza, but I just been out a lot working or like just out on these streets, you know. And then you get hungry and like you're like I don't want to cook and Z Pizza on Santa Monica Boulevard is the best pizza.

Speaker 1:

Right next to all the bars, very strategically done.

Speaker 2:

Yes, I. Sometimes you guys leave my friends at a bar, no one knows, because everyone's, you know, doing their own thing and you know happy dancing along. I leave and go get a slice of pizza. Sometimes when I come back, everyone's like oh hey, like where were you, did you go to the bathroom? I'm like, no, I went to go get a slice of pizza. Just by yourself, they're like by yourself.

Speaker 1:

I'm like yeah, it's like so. Yeah, it is like it fixes everything, Like the carbs, the fat, the grease, the cheese.

Speaker 2:

It's just like the bread, the cheese, and it fixes any ailment you could possibly have, yeah, and then like same, like lemon pepper dry rub, lemon pepper wings.

Speaker 1:

It's like with some just dunking in some ranch. It literally melts my mouth. Yeah, all right. Okay, wrestle tales what's a side hustle? You tried, but it didn't work out. Oh, I've had a couple. I had a couple like things, like inventions I tried to like, make, and they might still happen. I don't know if I can actually tell them, because then someone could steal them and make them work.

Speaker 2:

yeah, don't, don't say it, but that wasn't like a side hustle for you because I wasn't making money a side hustle.

Speaker 1:

I'd have to be making money like. I mean, I worked in fast food, I worked at a Chick on a side hustle either.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I, I, my side hustle, I was a, uh, a host that I. Then I moved up to the maitre d' which is, if you don't know, the main host. I worked my way up there and, uh, I worked at ketchup, which was on sunset Boulevard. And yeah, what was ketchup? It was just a restaurant that became like super popular from the TV show the Hills back in the day when I moved here, obviously I was like oh, I'm gonna work at a restaurant, it's gonna be ketchup, let's go work at ketchup.

Speaker 1:

It was so cool and kendrick opens one next door called mustard. Oh wait, no, I tried being a photographer. I got paid to be a photographer when I was in college, oh okay. But then I noticed all my clients were like shirtless guys and I'm also sure how that kept happening. And then I was like I feel uncomfortable now so I stopped doing it. I cannot Like I photographed a lot of shirtless guys. I mean, hey, I mean I got paid. Yeah, now I'm thinking back. Why did I do that?

Speaker 2:

Why did you do that? Yeah, she now she's thinking about it. This was 12 years ago, uh, okay, uh. What was uh um at chetoreilly, oreilly auto parts? Okay, um, what's the one thing that helped you not feel lost in negativity?

Speaker 1:

that's a good one I think just a good support system of friends, I think is very important.

Speaker 2:

I have to agree with you on that. Journaling and meditating actually help me a lot. I feel like when I fall off on journaling or meditating I do find myself more stressed and I feel like it's easier for me to spiral. But I know I think if I write it down and then I meditate on, if it's, you know, something not not positive that's happening to me and I'm writing that down, I'll meditate on it and change my mindset about it and that's helped a lot. But but alongside with a support system, my friends and my family are just. I would not literally not be on this planet if it wasn't like for you guys.

Speaker 1:

You know, yeah, yeah, so get yourself a good support system for sure. All right, new York, forever one. How much prep work goes in every podcast, you know quite a bit. It's something where I think as soon as we finished filming, we start thinking about the next episode, and so there is a lot of pre-production and figuring out you know what's the current topics and what makes sense for what we want to talk about, and then bringing in our personal stories and then, of course, the editing on the backside and clipping and planning fun content days like the Skip it video. So it takes quite a bit of work. It definitely is something just like you can just snap your fingers and be done with it.

Speaker 2:

So, yeah, definitely, it's definitely not a it's not, it's not easy, by any means. No, but, like I said, we work really well together and we have a lot of the same ideas and vibes that we want to bounce off each other. And yeah, yeah, oh. And the second part is any opportunities to take the show on the road.

Speaker 2:

Not yet, but that would be a dream, that would be amazing that'd be a that would be amazing we would love to do that like that is something else that we're that's, that's going in the manifestation bank we're just gonna have a bank of manifestations and that'll that's going to be one of them for sure.

Speaker 1:

So for 19 and 20 I'm going. I'm looking at the questions right now on my phone and we're going to answer two that I said we weren't going to answer, that were more on the inappropriate side. But we can just finish this out.

Speaker 2:

Oh, okay, let me take a sip of this really fast.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so about 25 people asked when is your OnlyFans starting? We want you guys to be the first to hear it here. We just wanted to make this announcement very special, for the 20th episode Our OnlyFans actually kicks off on the 20th of never, so shut up, stop asking, but you know like our Wiki feed is doing great, so we're going to.

Speaker 1:

Thank you, martin, for your contribution. Um, oh, oh, I don't know if we can. If I can say it, oh, what can I? Well, you know what? I? Probably I'd rob a bank, I think, first and foremost, I just get my finances in order yeah, I mean, that's for sure, it's definitely, or the purge is just murdering people, you can actually break laws I think the purge there's?

Speaker 2:

no, there's no law so I can do whatever I want. Because I was gonna say, oh, I'll just drive on top of my ceiling of my car. Like was gonna say, oh, I'll just drive on top of my ceiling of my car. Like, just like, wait, what would you do? Drive on top of your ceiling, wait, I would just want you to drive my car and me sit on top of my ceiling and like be waving to everybody. That's what you would do with your free purge.

Speaker 1:

oh well, I mean she, no, I mean she just wants to sit. I'll drive the getaway car. Oh, you'll drive the getaway car.

Speaker 2:

Okay, I would love just to like drive like a menace, but like not get in an accident, obviously.

Speaker 1:

No, safely, we don't want to hurt anybody. Yeah, I'm not trying to hurt anybody. People are already that we all have the people in our heads that we won't say out loud that we would purge. At least I do for sure some people I know some people that I don't. Yeah, there's one in the top of my mind right now that I'm not going to say that I think a lot of people would agree with. But no, yeah, um, I would rob a bank first and I would just be with her.

Speaker 2:

She would just be with me, I would just be with her. I don't know. I mean, yeah, give me all. But then if, like, the purge is happening, like, what are we going to do with the money?

Speaker 1:

Well, we'll get the money, because then we'd hide, because the purge has to end and then we'll. Then we're rich when it's all over, right, oh, okay.

Speaker 2:

Yeah Right, we just have to go into hiding.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no, no, no, I get that. To let us just hide away in your bunker and to the purchase over? No, we can't, we just have to make our own bunker. Oh, because then we can't trust anybody. No, you can't trust anybody. What was I thinking? Yeah, you're going to say, oh, we're going to give you this much. What if they have a gun and they shoot us and they take all of our?

Speaker 2:

money and that whole heist was for nothing.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, Well thank you all who contributed questions for our 20th episode. We have more that we do want to celebrate. But before we do blow out our candles, we thought it'd be fun to look back at our top 20 moments from the podcast so far. A lot were wild and unhinged. Some probably should have been edited out. But hey, here we are. So without further ado, let's relive the 20 episodes chaos together, Rolling Hi guys. Episodes chaos together, Rolling Hi guys. Hello everyone, Hi, Welcome to the Hive. This is the very first episode of the futurely is that a word? Iconic and highly successful Milk and Honeys.

Speaker 2:

Worst date you've ever been on. You know I'm gonna name names. Okay, please. No, I'm not actually.

Speaker 1:

Yes, I am I went on a date with peter teal yeah, you're actually, you're still you, you not get it. Oh, outside the banner.

Speaker 2:

Oh my, she took me on a little journey there. Oh my goodness, he's like guys.

Speaker 1:

You guys, it's sitting right there. You guys, it's literally sitting.

Speaker 2:

I love wordplay so much I'm picking another one. This is why she's not allowed.

Speaker 1:

Hold on, let me pick another one. It's a pick. Okay, I'm going to go back to the easy section. Hold on. I think the easy section is.

Speaker 2:

This is too deep for Kayla today, okay, no.

Speaker 1:

I don't want that one either. Please welcome the multi-talented Jenna Davis Yay.

Speaker 2:

Hello everyone. I think this is my new quote of the century the people need to know the people. That is profound, vanessa. They don't deserve.

Speaker 1:

Danny. Welcome back to Milk and Honeys, it's so exciting to be here for a second time. I feel like a better time, I'm so excited, even though the first time was wonderful, wonderful it was. It was only like what Was it seven days ago? So what happened was? We played dodgeball.

Speaker 2:

And then Red Rover, Red Rover. Do they still play that?

Speaker 1:

game. We are jumping into this way quicker than I thought. Do not drip honey on me. I don't like to be sticky. That just sounds, even with sexual things.

Speaker 2:

What about candle wax, whipped cream and all this stuff.

Speaker 1:

I'm like I hate this. It's so messy. I don't want to be Ch-ch-ch-chia. Yes, a chia pet. Oh my god, the commercials. I want to get a chia pet.

Speaker 2:

No, jen, you're just going to work with really fucked up people.

Speaker 1:

Yep.

Speaker 2:

And now you're in comedy and you work with really fucked up people. I've had a hemorrhoid before and I feel like so many people do have them. I'm nervous.

Speaker 1:

I know I'm like I just got hot.

Speaker 2:

Me too.

Speaker 1:

I should not have put on a sweater. I was like maybe this will be like my comfort sweater but now I'm sweating.

Speaker 2:

We uplift each other, we make sure we're good, we check in on each other and yeah, so if you are struggling, just know you're not alone, we're all struggling.

Speaker 1:

You may think we have it together because of our really cute pictures that we post on Instagram, right, but actually, when we turn the photo camera off, we're crying.

Speaker 2:

Yeah Well, I did cry today, rock on Rock on guys Rock on with us All right. Bye, we'll see you next time Bye. Okay. So if this is our 20th episode, where do we want to be by 40? 40 years old, or I mean? I hope we're still doing this when we're 40. Me too.

Speaker 1:

I really do. I hope this is all we have to do for a career.

Speaker 2:

And what's our 20 episode resolution?

Speaker 1:

Yeah. So I guess an episode resolution would be for 40. So I mean, I hope by 40 we are. I hope our subscribers have doubled or tripled in our following. I hope we are getting sponsorships, which we all you know as creators, do need in order to grow. You know, as creators do needs in order to grow, and I hope by that point we're putting on more like mainstream popular guests into the rotation who we're not necessarily going to ask for that they're coming to us to be on the show, so that'd be really cool. I love that. What about?

Speaker 2:

you. I think I'm kind of in the same boat as you. Yeah, I think for 40th I. My main goal for us right now is, yeah, to like find sponsors that align with milk and honeys and, uh, create great brand partnerships with people and just keep growing, like you said. I hope we're like we're I hope we're doubled or tripled in numbers.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to cover my toe because I'm missing a toenail. I don't want anyone to zoom in on it. I'm screaming, hopefully by the 40th episode. I don't have a broken toenail anymore, because every week I come in here my toenail is broken. Sorry, I didn't mean to break up that Her toenail has been broken for weeks.

Speaker 2:

I keep getting it fixed, it just keeps breaking.

Speaker 1:

It like weeks. I keep getting it fixed. It just keeps breaking. It's a thing, it's a condition. Don't make fun of my disability. I'm not Disabilities.

Speaker 2:

I need a handicap sticker on my car.

Speaker 1:

You're like ma'am why do you have a handicap sticker? I just throw my toe down Again. Why do I always? Why is it always country?

Speaker 2:

I'm like here, I'm the real one, my country. I'm like here, officer, what my toe, my big toe, it's gone. It's gone, oh God.

Speaker 1:

Okay, oh my God, we're already into the other two, okay what's a new segment that maybe we'd want to launch before episode 40? I think that. I mean, I love our Skip it. We talked about this.

Speaker 2:

Yep, I want us to do more. Honeys in the Wilds, yes, or Honeys in the Streets, or something. We haven't decided what we want to call it Honey in the Streets and Freaking the something.

Speaker 1:

We'll work on that. But yeah, oh, honey, in the Streets Freaking the Sheets. I love that, yeah. I don't know if we want to say Freaking the Sheets though. Yeah, because that might turn into Well, that's true patreon page.

Speaker 1:

Yes, honeys in the streets freaking the sheets, but I do think we've had a good time. We've like, we've gone to hockey games and events and red carpets and, um, we just did like going around in west hollywood with the skip it. So I do think it'd be fun if every week we had a different segment to like throw to that y'all could see like we're not just sitting in the studio.

Speaker 2:

Yes, and you know, we, we saw I mean we saw the numbers, we saw the comments yeah, people loved it, people loved it and I think it just gets to, I don't know, it gets us out in the community a little bit more. Yeah, exactly, we love WeHo, we love West Hollywood, we love Boys Town and it was so fun and it was not hard for people to participate Everyone wanted to participate.

Speaker 2:

We really thought it was going to be very difficult to get people to try and skip it, and people were coming up to us like, is that a skip it? Yeah, oh, my gosh, I love your shirts, because we were both wearing our milk and honey shirts, of course, duh and yeah. So I think interacting with people and getting people to know about the podcast more in a like a personal level is cool. Agreed, that'd be, fun and they felt special.

Speaker 1:

They did, which was cool they did. If you haven't watched that segment, it's on our Instagram. Go watch it.

Speaker 2:

Okay, what milestone would make us feel like we've really made it? Live show, tv deals, spotify exclusive.

Speaker 1:

I mean like a Spotify deal or something like that would be really cool. Yeah, I mean like a Spotify deal or something like that would be really cool to have, because that leads to obviously other deals and live shows I would love to do live shows.

Speaker 2:

I would love to do a live show. Yeah, I think that would be really cool.

Speaker 1:

I think that could be something we could do, even like here at the studio that we film at. There's a whole other room, a stage chairs, and I think it's something that could be a closer goal than we think.

Speaker 2:

if we have 50 or so people who want to come in and see a live taping of milk and honeys, I think that's something we can make happen and we could also live stream it too, which is cool, yeah, so, and and I, yeah, I think it's a lot more attainable than we think, uh-huh, and just having people be able to like ask people questions in the audience too or on the live stream, like I don't know that would be, I think that would be cool for us to yeah, we'll work on that.

Speaker 1:

Well, we could definitely do that before episode 40 exactly put that as a check. Yes, um, what's a bad habit you want to drop before episode. I think we both probably can like echo each other on this.

Speaker 2:

We just want to like get our vocabulary words straight and this one is for my sister, okay, because I know she screams at our podcast all the time she's like no, no, that's not right.

Speaker 1:

No, no, no, you guys, it's like it's like two brains together are not helping us get to the answer any faster. We need my sister like in the corner to be like hey guys.

Speaker 2:

No, that's, it's not, it, that's not it. We're doing our best yeah I, I think that's definitely. Yeah I. I think we can get to a place, too, where we don't feel so rushed, because I know we have a lot on our plate, um, and and there are moments, you know, before we come in filming and we're a little rushed and and I personally would like to not feel that way.

Speaker 2:

You know like be a little bit more calm and like more planned. Yeah, like I just and that's like maybe a me thing I don't know, that's probably not Kayla but like I just feel that way for me personally I want to do better, you know, even picking the outfits before, like way before you know and be like hey, this is prepping a little more. Yeah, like the prepping, not so, but we're getting there, we are, we're we're getting so much better and, um, yeah, that's great good easy, easy to obtain.

Speaker 2:

Yep, um, is there a new skill you'd love to brag about 20 episodes from now well, I think we kind of already do it, but I think, like, just like finishing each other's sentences more, yeah that's all, yeah, just sharing our brain a little more, yeah, and learning how to dance for me yeah, I I think kidding. I think we're pretty open, though, so we are maybe too open sometimes no I think we should be more open, that's true I think, we should.

Speaker 1:

I think there's things we hold back from a little bit. Like I have a friend who watches the show and he's like I feel like we don't get full Kayla sometimes, because he can tell I'm holding back to make sure I'm not too offensive or too vulgar. He's like we want to hear how offensive I mean look at how Alex Cooper made it from being the most vulgar woman on the podcast network. Not saying we need to go that route For sure. I think I do want to do better about not trying to like pull myself back so much sometimes.

Speaker 2:

Yes, and remembering that every there's always going to be people who hate on us and there's always going to be people who disagree with us, and that's okay. But it is scary sometimes when you're on a platform and you know, uh, this day and age with cancel culture, it's just scary. It's just like we, you know, you don't want to be canceled, obviously, um, I know, but we do want to speak our mind and so, yeah, sometimes that's a little, it's a tug and pull, kind of yeah, no that's not it, I'll go with it.

Speaker 1:

Push and pull, tug and pull Sound a little sexual OnlyFans.

Speaker 2:

That was another name.

Speaker 1:

Another tug and pull.

Speaker 2:

We have so many names for you guys.

Speaker 1:

I think Sabrina Carpenter said it in an interview because she has her album coming out and a lot of people have came out. People have a lot of issues with it because it's so sexual or whatever, and she's like I don't care if Tom from Kansas doesn't care, doesn't like what I do, exactly Like not, you're never going to please everybody, no, ever. And if you know if everyone likes you, then I think you're doing something wrong. So I think it's important to stay true to yourself and then deal with the backlash later and then just know how to handle it then. So I think that's something we can all kind of work on. Yep, for sure, okay. Next, what's one totally delusional goal we should manifest, like Madison Square Garden or live taping on our own Bravo show? That'd be crazy.

Speaker 1:

Bravo, bravo would be Take over Andy Cohen's. Watch what Happens.

Speaker 2:

Live yes.

Speaker 1:

One that we guest host for him.

Speaker 2:

That's the one. If we could guest host Bravo once a month even, I know, give Andy Cohen a break.

Speaker 1:

He needs a break. He works so much. He works so much.

Speaker 2:

He's probably the most overworked host in all of television he is and he has to deal with so much.

Speaker 1:

We want to handle that for him. Let's take that off your plate.

Speaker 2:

Exactly, exactly. I mean, we do that with our friends anyway, you know what I mean we handle a lot.

Speaker 1:

We handle a lot of drama.

Speaker 2:

Give it to us, we could do it, we could do it. But yeah, that would be a really cool delulu that I would love to make into a reality. A relulu, a relulu.

Speaker 1:

A Rilulu. You know Like that Counts? Yes, our dictionary is coming out soon A few more.

Speaker 2:

What would be the wildest way to celebrate episode 40 if money wasn't an issue?

Speaker 1:

Fire up the private jet, a yacht, and land on a yacht or I guess we'd have to transfer to a helicopter, helipad to a yacht, yep. Make sure we pay for all of our friends to come out there, yep. And then we end up in like a giant mansion compound somewhere like what in Mykonos. Yes, you know.

Speaker 2:

And it's just like. It's just like a huge house party For days. It yeah, that's how we do it.

Speaker 1:

If money wasn't a thing. That's what we're doing.

Speaker 2:

We're all taking a trip honey, we're all taking a trip and five lucky fans. I don't know, we'll see. Oh boy, all right, what?

Speaker 1:

do we want the honey community to look like by then? Oh yeah, I think we'd love to maybe actually come out with merch that we're selling.

Speaker 2:

Live meetups would be really cool, which I think we're kind of. We kind of saw that, not that we were doing a meet live meetup, but like honey's on the streets, like it was pretty cool having people ask us, oh, what is this for? And follow the podcast, like right right there for us, and they just, I don't know, I I more stuff like that yeah, I just we probably.

Speaker 1:

I fucking watch hollywood. There's someone we get called like hey, we want to come host an event. Milk and Honeys, buy Milk and Honeys and like just start getting the the word out, the word out.

Speaker 2:

So, yeah, that'd be something. I think that's, and I also think that's super attainable. It is very for sure. Okay, what's next if we could record a voicemail for our episode 40 selves? Oh my gosh, what would we say? Dear Darla, how does it go you?

Speaker 1:

rock Dear Darla, dear Darla. You make me vomit. You're the scum between my toes. Yeah, there it is there it is.

Speaker 2:

You're the scum between my toes. You make me Damn it. It's fine, dear Darla. You're the scum between my toes.

Speaker 1:

You make me Damn it, it's fine, dear Darla, I hate your stinking guts.

Speaker 2:

There it is, you're the scum between my toes. Yes, you make me vomit Something like that Love, alpha, alpha, I don't know, yeah, something like that In the accent.

Speaker 1:

But no, that's like we like. Maybe we should like later record something that says you know, hey, vanessa and caleb, this is vanessa and caleb from episode 20. We just want to congratulate you for making it to 40. We knew not. You know it wasn't going to be easy, but look what all you've done in 20 episodes keep it going girls I love that you know.

Speaker 2:

I think we should. We should just do a little voice note for ourselves. Is that what you always say? You go glenn Glen Coco, you go honeys, you go honeys, take on the world.

Speaker 1:

So it should be our little time capsule. Yeah, we should do like every like.

Speaker 2:

so many episodes we should, that'd be cute. I was going to say every decade, every decade.

Speaker 1:

We're going to leave a voice.

Speaker 2:

Every 20. Hey there, honeys. Well, hey there, what's the accent I accent. So I'm trying to talk to an old lady what? Hey there? I was like. I was like no, I was like hey there, honeys. I was trying to like hey there, sunny, hey there, honeys, you girls got this. Keep it going. I think we might be living in alabama by then.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I, I don't know, I just love like talking like that for some reason um, last but not least, what would make us proud to look back on these next 20 episodes? I think that we just stuck with it. You know, just stuck with it.

Speaker 2:

I think that's how I feel right now. I feel like I can't believe it's the 20th episode. I know, ah, even saying that makes me want to cry. I know I'm such a fricking cry baby you guys. It's so annoying, but I, just like I said in the last episode, I'm just so proud of us. Uh, we've never stopped. It has not been easy. We've had to figure things out together and we've done it together and it's just like really cool to see something that was on. I'm not done yet, okay.

Speaker 1:

Okay, she's bringing the she's bringing something over here and I'm not done. I'm trying to have a sentimental moment. Hopefully the single cane was on you, sorry, keep going, no, no no, that's it. I just ruined her moment.

Speaker 2:

No, she did, but it's okay, it's okay, I still love her. Start it over. Rewind. Now I can't say I lost my train of thought.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

I have ADHD and dyslexic dyslexia.

Speaker 2:

See, there you go. So I just things come and go and then I can't remember. But, um, no, I'm just proud of us. I know we're going to keep going. I know we're going to keep building, we're going to keep growing together. Um, I've, I've loved getting to know you even more on a deeper level. I feel like I have not only a friend, but a family member, and so I know how hard it is for you two to open up, and so I am so grateful that we have a safe space to do that together. Me too.

Speaker 1:

I really do. I love you. I love you too. Can I bring the cupcakes over here? Yeah, so we have some really fancy. These are lace top top from the pastries, honestly they were handmade handmade. Um, you may recognize them if you look a little closer. Yeah, oh, and we even got a special.

Speaker 1:

Uh, I'm actually really scared to do here. I'll do this. Yeah, I always burn myself, that's why I have those long lighters. Yeah, you know what I mean. So we think we should sell, but we obviously we have the balloons. We couldn't find the numbers, so they say they say oh, we were supposed to helium, it's fine.

Speaker 2:

Oh, we didn't. We'll do the end with the helium. Okay, we'll do the end with it, okay.

Speaker 1:

So I think, so Are we supposed to sing.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, do we sing like? Happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday. Are we rehearsing right?

Speaker 1:

now. Oh, I thought we were just going for it Ready 3, 2, 1 Happy birthday. To us. Happy birthday to us. Happy birthday To Milk and Honey. Happy birthday To you. We're going up, up, up, up, up up. Happy birthday to you.

Speaker 2:

We're going up, up, up, up, up, up up up, okay, and all of our manifestations and all of our manifestation bank. We're putting it into the candles, we're putting it into the hostess cupcakes. Yes, and we're about to blow this thing out. We're about to blow this thing out, we're going to blow this thing out, vanessa Curry.

Speaker 1:

Oh oh no, we better blow them. This is good you blow. Did they give us trick candles Candles? They better not have. Oh my god, they gave us trick candles Candles. Why can't I see candles? They're not supposed to be okay. We're gonna set the thing up. Wait, there it goes. Just dump them in the. Just dump them in here can we?

Speaker 2:

should we just put it in the cake? Yes, you guys, they tricked us, you guys, we did not find candles. That is that like bad? Is that like bad news that we weren't able to? We didn't even do this to ourselves. We could not find candles, and so we asked the worker, and these are the ones they give us, the ones that don't get put out. I think it must be good luck. It's good luck because it doesn't want us to stop burning.

Speaker 1:

It wants us to keep going.

Speaker 2:

Don't let your light don't let your light go die. You better keep that candle burning stay lit af. See, there you go. That is milk and honey and that is, yeah, that's I am. I'm honestly screaming because I was not expecting that.

Speaker 1:

I go back to my cue cards. I forgot how we were going to end this, yeah. So make sure you let us know what your favorite milk and honey's moment was so far and what you want to see in the next 20 episodes, and hopefully we can make all of our dreams come true. Yes, kids, don't try this at home. Don't try this at home. So, in honor of episode 20, again we just want to say thank you all for joining us.

Speaker 2:

Thank, you for all the support. We love you guys and Milk and honeys out, we lost it.

Speaker 1:

Oh wait, we lost it. Give me helium.

Speaker 2:

It's not as potent as it used to be. I think they changed it.

Speaker 1:

You changed the recipe for helium.

Speaker 2:

And just remember, guys. Oh yeah, kayla and I will always be the best ingredients for the best tasting tea that you will ever try in your entire life, and that, my friends, is milk and honey. Bye, bye, that was great. Do I have red lipstick all over my mouth? No, you're great.
