Masaya pa ba ang Pasko… or pagod lang tayo?

Christmas hits different when you’re older—and not always in a bad way.

In this episode, Anne and Georgie unpack the reality of adult Christmas:
the schedules, the budgets, the logistics, the emotional bandwidth (or lack thereof), and the quiet pressure to perform joy.

We talk about the Christmas we imagined growing up, the Filipino traditions we were raised with, the nostalgia that still tugs at us… and the compromises we now make to survive the season with our sanity intact.

From fake trees and fake wrapped gifts, to choosing rest over perfection, this episode is for anyone who loves Christmas, misses it, resents it a little, or just wants to get through it gently.

Because maybe Christmas isn’t dead.

Maybe it just grew up with us.

This Week’s Reminder:

Christmas is a holiday — not a performance.
Rest is allowed.
Simplicity is enough.

✨ If you’re far away from family this Christmas, we’re here with you.
✨ If your Christmas looks different this year, that doesn’t make it wrong.
✨ If you’re tired, welcome, you’re among fellow pagods.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Casual dating, ghosting, mixed signals, and the emotional aftermath... Let’s talk about it.

In this episode, Anne and Georgie sit down with their friend Gab for an honest, no-holds-barred conversation about hookup culture, modern dating, and what it really means to move through relationships without accountability.

From dating apps and “rosters,” to ghosting, avoidance, and the fear of commitment, we unpack how hookup culture can blur boundaries, hurt people unintentionally, and normalize emotional distance.

This isn’t about shaming.

It’s about awareness, communication, and doing better—whether you’re dating casually, seriously, or somewhere in between.

⚠️ Gentle Content Note:

This episode includes discussions of:

• dating and sexual relationships
• emotional hurt and ghosting
• hookup culture dynamics

Listener discretion advised.

Also:
✨ Communication is sexy.
👻 Ghosting is not.

In this episode, Georgie and Anne share the hilarious, chaotic, and inspiring stories of the things they forced themselves to try; even when their inner saboteur was screaming.

From Georgie stepping into the world of cosplay (complete with wigs, props, and a budget that evaporated instantly) to Anne attempting dancing despite every cell in her body wanting to hide behind a curtain. We’re unpacking it all.

Because the truth is, sometimes the thing you fear ends up being the thing that teaches you who you are… or at least gives you a mortifying story to tell later.
