This week on Pretty Basic, we're giving you a long-awaited Asia recap. From 18-step hair treatments and heavenly head massages to traveling with our moms and embracing the beauty in aging, we’re getting real about the deep convos and tender moments that shaped our trip (cue all the chaos and cuteness). Remi opens up about a healing moment with her mom and we dive into what it really means to understand our parents as people, not just parents (wild concept, right?).
We’re also spilling on insane skincare, Max in Korea, the exact moment Alisha gave Remi the “be f-ing for real” look, and yes… the dirty pajama breaking point. Oh, and did we mention the iconic bagel run (literally😉)? It’s girlie, it’s raw, it’s heartfelt, and of course, it’s basic—we’re so glad you’re here! 🩵

Spring has sprung, depression is over, and the sun is shining—so of course, Remi is joined by her bestie Oli for a deep and hilariously entertaining catch-up and Q&A. We dive into everything from Oli’s seasonal depression and his journey with anxiety meds (hello, 25-pound weight gain) to our worst influencer interactions and the misconceptions about our friendship. Plus, we spill on our work relationship, best friend trios, conflict and jealousy. And of course, some behind-the-scenes of miss Alisha Marie and Heath’s epic surprise party!

Bretman Rock is back on Pretty Basic — in his lover era and wilder than ever! In this chaotic, laugh-until-you-cry episode, he shares the wildest family stories from his childhood in the Philippines, opening up about discovering his dad’s affair, becoming the breadwinner at just 13, the challenges of discussing mental health with foreign moms, and what motivated him throughout it all. Plus, he drops the sweetest (and most unexpected) tea about his relationship, reveals his iconic first DM slide, and takes us inside his exclusive love story. Oh, and did we mention breastfeeding a monkey, a chicken funeral, his very real hex from his ex—and why he’s calling out people for kissing their cousins (yes, really)? Buckle up—this one’s a ride, and it’s piping hot.
