YOOO- The boys are ABSOLUTELY back with signed contracts through the end of 2026.

What better way to start off a new year, a new season, and a new contract renewal than with Chicago's very own: Andrei Villasin.

This week we man up and get vulnerable talking masculinity. We ask the question, what did we need from our fathers growing? Why did we feel we could never disappoint our moms and how does that affect our future relationships? What's in the gift bag Andrei brought?

We reminisce at the way our parents brought the hammer down to get us in line as kids and why it was so effective.

The boys introduce a new segment, Deliberate Read, and how we feel about it. This week's book:

"Earth Medicines" by Felicia Cocotzin Ruiz.

Finally, Andrei reveals some big news….

All of that and way more on the brand new season of Deliberate Dive. Stick around, get comfy, grab a drink. We're going to be here a while.

One last YOOO -- It's been a long road to get here, and the Morales Cousins are TIRED. So we have one more episode left in the chamber. Watch at your own risk.

From our most memorable moments of the podcast, to the highlights, to the purpose, to the will to start something, and the dedication to keep going.

This year has been a fun ride, 2025 was good to our mission. A quick reminder of that mission (go back to episode 1 for more information): Create a community where we can enrich our lives, learn, grow, start a conversation, and laugh throughout the journey.

We hope, at the very least, you come out of watching us for 20 hours and think to yourself, "you know what, if they can do it, so can I".

We're not perfect, this podcast was never perfect, our conversations were not perfect, but we're humans, and humans are not perfect. So let's reflect, look back on it, and share a laugh or ten about it.

From the bottom of our hearts and even further, thank you for showing up every week. Your support is the fuel that kept us going, and the content we put out is the tool we use to show our appreciation.

Happy New Year DD fam.

1 episode remaining…

YOOO -- it's the Morales cousins back at it with some gold. How does that one song go? "...every time we touch that track it turrrns innto gold" Shoutout B.o.B. - Magic - (come on the pod…)

We are reviewing what endings mean, do they mean anything? Matter of fact, we're doing it tastefully and fun.

Double D-ers, how do we say this. Thank you for the roller coaster this has been, what a fun experience to create a community and start a conversation with you all. Enjoy this one!

And don't forget to have the audacity to dream ridiculously.
