Remi and Alisha Move to New York!!!

We’re basically New Yorkers now… well, kinda. We’re dishing on all the NYC chaos — from our favorite hidden gems to Cal’s full-on panic attack that ended with a missed flight (you truly can’t make this stuff up). Cal and Oli eventually made it to the city, and Cal decided to go big with his biggest purchase ever. We also got to meet YouTube’s CEO (casual) and speak at the iconic NewFronts event in front of the top execs in the industry! You can’t stop these OG YouTubers 😉

We Survived Remi’s Bachelorette in Vegas (Barely)

Buckle up, besties—this episode is a wild ride through the most iconic Bachelorette weekend ever: Remi’s bach bash turned accidental brand trip in Vegas! From pre-party brunches to nightclub chaos with Zedd—and yes, Lance Bass—it was nonstop vibes and, dare we say, peak lucky girl syndrome. We spill on everything: the Magic Mike moment that got Alisha on stage, beach club contamination drama, shady Instagram bots, and how past Remi totally looked out for future Romy. Plus, we talk hookups, bachelorette games, and the one new celeb DM Alisha had to unsend. Vegas is a mindset... and after this trip, we may never recover—but we’ll certainly rally for the wedding!

Stay tuned for Remi's iconic Bachelorette swag bag giveaway on @prettybasicofficial instagram!

Alisha Lied To Ashley About Her Engagement…

This week on Pretty Basic, Alisha is joined by a very special guest—her newly engaged sister, Ashley! We’re spilling all the behind-the-scenes moments from Ashley’s dream proposal, including how Alisha played a hand in delaying it altogether. From signs from the universe (hello, ladybug!) to the chaotic way Alisha and her manager got Ashley to the big moment, nothing is off-limits. We also dive into the emotional spirals of the “waiting season,” Ashley’s big crash-out moment, and all the little details that made the engagement unforgettable.

Our Offensive Hot Takes!

On this week’s episode, we’re packing our bags and heading straight into bachelorette chaos, bridal showers, and all things wedding. Remi’s getting all mushy over Cal’s sweetest moments, while Alisha’s out here threatening to spill wine on people. From wild bachelorette ideas to the age-old debate: strippers, yes or no? Plus, we play a little “hot takes” game — girlhood, haters, lazy guys, and why male-dominated podcasts give us the ick. God forbid a girl wants to have fun!!

Our Coachella Recap + What Really Happens At the Exclusive After Parties

This week, we're giving you the ultimate Coachella recap — from private jets to emotional spirals and everything in between. Remi fully stepped into her Coachella fairy era, Alisha had a full-on meltdown, and let’s just say… a lot went down in that hot tub. We’re breaking down every detail of the weekend — from getting styled to private jets, private chefs and our surreal stay at the Guess Jeans compound (a literal dream).


We’re talking pinch-me moments, chaotic nights, and super exclusive after parties with Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet. Plus, Alisha may or may not have gotten a little too bold (and a little too drunk) sneaking into Charli XCX’s private bathroom... oops. Remi also shares a moment with her PCOS specialist that got us thinking — should she come on the pod? And of course, your friendly reminder: ladies, go get your yearly checkups (yes, that means pap smears + breast exams) and take care of yourselves. Did this year’s Coachella live up to the hype? You’ll have to listen to find out.

Alisha + Remi Unpack Their Mommy Issues

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!
