From Double Lives of Suburban Wives to Married at First Sight, we have some fun things happening at Little Miss Recap this month.

But before we get into all of that:

We are trying to gather the location of our Backdoor friends so we can better plan meetups but also so you can connect with people in your area!
Please take one minute to tell us which city you live in: you can do that here.

Now onto the exciting stuff!

Patreon/PAID Feed News

Members Only

You may have noticed recently that our branding has changed on Patreon. We are now calling our paid content Members Only. So if you see this new logo in your feed, do not fret—it’s still us.

Back to School Sale

If you’ve been on the fence about joining Members Only, August may be a great time to do so! Not only do you save 50% off your first month, but I will donate $5 for each new member who joins to our Teacher Wish Lists!

I LOVE donating money and I’m so grateful that your support allows me to do this!

Changing the Type of Content on our Members Only Feed

We are changing the way we deliver content. You are not losing content, we are just changing what that content looks like. Rather than guaranteeing specific shows/content, we are moving towards a guaranteed amount of content with each tier.

I’ve been throwing a lot of stuff at the wall lately to see what works alongside getting your feedback via polls, etc. Thank you for all of your input and feedback. In response, I have been able to make some meaningful changes that I hope do two things: give me and my team a little breathing room, without losing the value we are striving to provide for you. Also, provide some more meaningful interaction with the $12 tier, which is now being branded as “the inner circle.”

Rather than having specific content each month, we will be moving to a guaranteed number of episodes and slide in content as appropriate.

For example, next month we are doing Sister Wives (as always), Double Lives of Suburban Wives on Patreon, as well as the Plathville S2 rewatch, so you will actually be getting three episodes a week at this tier (more than the guaranteed 2).

Another note: Mailbag will be moving to Amanda’s new podcast, and will be replaced here by a Youtube Live for the $12 tier. Amanda’s podcast is called Oh! The Places You’ll Grow and can be found on any podcast app.

The Archive: here is a list of the content we’ve provided so far and as a member, you will have access to all of this (per your tier). https://docs.google.com/document/d/1b3JBhOHKclseefEIhcYUKR5SbMtmxwextounUOmi_ok/edit?usp=sharing

TLDR: Instead of guaranteed branded content like Gen X Corner or Cult of the Month, we are guaranteeing the AMOUNT of content—which may or may not include those specials when we can fit them.

$8 tier: 2 shows a week (often more?)

$12 tier: the 2 shows from the $8 tier PLUS: Real Talk—which is our inner circle/after show each Saturday. AND a Youtube Live just for this tier.

Please note: We do spread love around to each tier when we have space. So keep your eye out for some bonus stuff on that $12 tier!

August Schedule

We are SO excited to dive into TLC’s latest trash heap, Double Lives of Suburban Wives! Here’s the trailer. It’s going to be a RIDE!

And our Welcome to Plathville Rewatch of season 2 is continuing.

Public Feed News

MAFS: Married at First Sight continues through August, as does the McBee Dynasty and 90 Day Fiance.

How are you guys liking the changes to MAFS? I am LOVING them! It has become such a fun ride. I love Paul and Dr. Lisa, and the introduction of the group dinners and the group counseling has really changed the show. I’m also thrilled there is more therapy, period!

Here’s peek at how Becca and I are feeling about the men on this season:

Welcome to the Team

Finally— I want to officially welcome Axel as a co host to Little Miss Recap and Murder She Watched! He’s an honorary Lady of a Certain Age, and I’m so glad to welcome him to the team.

Axel has his own podcast network, DVR Podcast Network, which is how we first connected, and if you’re into scripted stuff, he and his team do a great job!

Our little podcast is growing and we are so stoked to have the incredible voices of Amanda, Becca, Kyla, and Axel! (and all of our frequent guests!)

Behind the scenes, you may have noticed our social media is getting a little…um….cooler, hipper? Tight as the kids say?

That’s thank to Morgan, our new social media contractor. She and Kristen (our Reels QUEEN) are making some magic happen behind the scenes.

Follow me on Instagram to check out some of Morgan’s work!

Thank you all so much for your support!

Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.

Just a few things you should know.

Come and Hang Out With Us!

Little House on the Prairie: July 9th

I’m so excited to share that my sister, Jennie, and I are covering the new Little House on the Prairie for our Gen X content on the $12 tier. There are 8 episodes in total, we will cover them 2 at a time—over a week or two. We’ve already recorded two and I will tell you— there are some weak spots in the show, but the new Pa is HOT.

Welcome to Plathville Season 2 Rewatch

We are going back to Cairo, GA, to revisit the early days of the Plath family. We will begin our rewatch on July 16th.

True Crime

Finally, I want to take a minute to draw your attention to Murder She Watched.

If you like true crime, I’d love it if you give my true crime podcast a try.

We just dropped our episode on Netflix’s Maternal Instinct, which was BONKERS.

Thank you so much for your support!

Love you guys!

Hope your summer is going well. A few announcements this morning. Just wanted to share this job posting with everyone.

Bratface Media (LMR and MSW) is hiring!

Social Media/Marketing Assistant (Part-Time, 1099 Contractor)

Company: Bratface Media, LLC (Little MIss Recap and Murder She Watched)

Location: Remote (US & Canada Only)

Hours: 6–8 hours/week

Compensation: $25.00/hr

Perks: A complimentary yearly membership to the premium feeds for both podcasts!

The Role & Expectations: This position involves coordinating the week’s social media calendar alongside myself and our graphic artist. You will ensure every new podcast episode has a strong online presence, create engaging evergreen content, and handle the scheduling and publishing across platforms. You will also be responsible for hunting down and gathering listener feedback —trawling through Patreon comments, social media replies, emails, and Slack—and compiling it into a single, organized Google Doc when/if needed.

Our Dream Candidate Has:

• Prior social media management and/or digital marketing experience (preferred).

• Familiarity with Canva, Sprout Social (or similar schedulers), Meta (Facebook/IG), YouTube, Patreon, and Slack.

• High proficiency with Google Docs/Google Workspace: You know how to use headings, formatting, and clear layout structures to make a document easily scannable and ready for on-air reading.

• Excellent organization and attention to detail: You can effortlessly spot great listener insights, theories, and funny commentary across multiple platforms and organize them cleanly.

• An understanding of basic social media analytics to see what our audience is engaging with most.

• A comfortable, communicative approach to collaborating virtually for weekly approvals.

Show & Community Familiarity: Because our community is everything to us, we are ideally looking for a long-time listener who naturally speaks our language. You should have a deep familiarity with the main shows we track (Sister Wives, 90 Day Fiancé, Love is Blind) and a passionate interest in true crime docuseries and cult documentaries.

Exciting things happening at Little Miss Recap.

Breaking News

I’m excited to announce that Axel and I will be covering This is Poly on WeTV. Our coverage will roll out a bit wonky until we play catch up, but look for the first episode this week!

Also—Amanda and I will be going back in time and recapping Welcome to Plathville season 2! Those recaps will begin after the current season finishes by the end of June.

Also, we are holding a bunch of meetups in the upcoming months. Here is our schedule. If you can attend one of the physical meetups, we are hosting virtual meetups. (Sign up sheets will be going out very soon!)

HOTEL Recs for our Conshohocken meet up:

If you want to stay in King of Prussia - here are 2 good options. They are in the mall area so there are a bunch of easy to walk to restaurant options and a quick drive to the meetup:

https://www.marriott.com/.../phlvf-fairfield.../overview/
https://www.ihg.com/.../en/king-of-prussia/phlvf/hoteldetail

If you’re interested in staying in Philadelphia (about 30-45 mins from King of Prussia depending on location in the city and traffic - these are some good hotel recommendations:

https://www.hotelpalomar-philadelphia.com/
https://www.monaco-philadelphia.com/
https://www.marriott.com/.../phlri-residence.../overview/
https://www.marriott.com/.../phlak-the-notary.../overview/
https://www.marriott.com/.../phlri-residence.../overview/

HOTEL Recs for our NYC Meetup:

We have reserved a block of rooms at the Hyatt Regency Times Square.
The code and more info is forthcoming!

Keep in mind the event will be in Times Square at the Hard Rock Cafe.

New Shows Coming to Free Feed

This month, you will see some new shows on your feed. I’m trying out two new series.

TV Talk: myself and a friend chat about a show we are watching but not necessarily recapping. We will talk about the show as a whole. We have Axel and I talking about Triopic Like It’s Hot.

LMR Investigates: in the vein of our deep dives we do on Murder She Watched (my true crime podcast), myself and a guest will dig into the crimes committed by a specific reality star. First up, Becca and I will be investigating Steven McBee senior ahead of the premiere of McBee Dynasty season 3—which we will be covering on the free feed starting June 17th.

We will try these and see how you guys like them! These shows are meant to just be drops in here and then when I have space or we are between shows.

Which sounds the most interesting to you?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the two!

June Pride Patreon Sale Starts TODAY!

I’m running a HUGE sale for Pride month on my Patreon. Not only will you get 50% your first month, but at the end of the month, I am going to donate my proceeds of that $8 which is roughly $5 per new member to The Trevor Project.

If we get 100 people to sign up, I will donate $500, etc. Hoping we can make a nice donation at the end of June.

If you are an annual member, I already discount annual memberships 10%, but for this sale you will get an additional 15%!
That sale begins today and ends June 30th. Sign up here!

Finally, here’s what’s coming up for Paid members this month:

Supporting the podcast is always appreciated. We are a family-run small business and appreciate all of you! If you cannot support us with a monthly pledge, you can always share the podcast with a friend or leave a review. These are wonderful ways to support the work we do.

Finally—

PS: Timmy and I have officially launched our media company, Bratface Media. The name “bratface” comes from my Gram. That was her nickname for me and when I was little, I used to cry when she called me that. (Shocker). So if you hear or see that branding around, that’s us! We’ve just officially formed a business!

That’s all we have this month!

Murder Club, which is our paid membership club, has reached 1000 members!

To celebrate, I am offering a discount for new members.
You can sign up here: www.patreon.com/murdershewatched

This month, we are covering The Disappearance of Maura Murray and we will be wrapping up the Murdaugh coverage and jumping into the scripted series, The Truth About Pam (Hupp). All of this is available at the $8 tier!

Mark Your Calendars!

We are also planning to celebrate with a Murder Club Meeting live on Youtube for members only. If you are on Patreon, you will be emailed a link a few hours before. If you are on Apple Subscriptions, we have NO WAY of knowing who you are or your email! So please message me with a screenshot of your membership and I can get you the link.

When: March 29th at 8PM Eastern Time
Where: Youtube! We will send a private link.

Our full March Schedule is below:

We are also covering some of the most recent true crime documentaries streaming today!

Here’s our episode from last week!

Thank for the support and love you’ve shown this side project of mine—which I guess is no longer a “side hustle?”

Listen to all Murder She Watched public episodes here: www.murdershewatchedpod.com

Join Murder Club at www.patreon.com/murdershewatched OR you can upgrade your Little Miss Recap membership to the $25 tier and get both!

Keep solving those crimes, Couch Detectives!

This is a thank you for the extra support!

We will also be uploading the back catalog of The Staircase and The Murdaugh content. The Jinx is already available to you since we did that on LMR originally.

Please allow us a few days to get through that back content!

Here’s the calendar for the month to let you know what content you will be getting.

**A quick note: I know people are frustrated that we are not combining these patreons. I get that. But I need to keep these pods separate for business reasons. If one fails, if I ever want to close one down, etc, they need to be two different businesses. BUT, the TGB subscribers get literally nothing extra for pledging that very generous amount every month and I have been feeling bad about that. So here is something we can do for you.

(Obviously we are aware that it is cheaper to belong to both/separate patreons. So if you are over there at $8 and over here at $12 and you’re comfortable with that--nothing changes!)

If you’d like to donate a little more each month for the convenience of having them in one spot, you can upgrade your tier today!

SIgn up here: https://www.patreon.com/5501327/join

As always thank you so much for your support! I could not do this without you.

Amye (and Timmy!)

The BDF Meetup

Thank you to ALL who came out for the BDF meetup in San Francisco. We had a blast!

Timmy enjoyed meeting you all as well!

I always LOVED August. The turn towards fall meant back to school and as both a parent of young children and a teacher, I loved BTS. This year, as I prepare to send the girls off to college, it hits a little different.

So, I’m throwing myself into work both to pay for said college and to keep my mind busy. Here’s what that looks like for you!

And again, I cannot thank you enough for supporting my work.

On Murder She Watched

This month I soft launched the patreon for Murder She Watched. I’m calling it Murder Club. If you join Murder Club for $5, you can get the episodes ad free. In the future, there will be bonus content, and many of you answered the survey I put out to give me some GREAT ideas. THANK YOU! The full patreon will be coming shortly!

June 10th: Becca joins me to talk about the ID/MAX docuseries, The Bakersfield 3. Which is an incredible story about motherhood.

June 24th: Kimberly from A Date with Dateline joins me to talk about the Netflix Documentary, Cold Case: The Tylenol Murders. And we believe we solved it.

If you would like to support this new venture of mine, please just consider subscribing to the free feed! That means more than you know.

My Thoughts:

I was sitting in the auditorium of my daughters’ high school yesterday watching as they celebrated class night. Tomorrow, I will watch them graduate high school. It occurred to me as I looked around at the other parents, how collective of an experience parenthood can be if we let it. So many posts in the school facebook group asking for direction: where’s the best place to buy flowers for the dance, what time do the kids get out on the Friday before Xmas break, can anyone tell me what color shirts they need for spirit week?

And in that vein, it is not lost on me that the transition I’m facing from full nest to somewhat emptier nest, is one I am not facing alone. So many of you have reached out because you either are going through this now, have been through it, or will be facing it soon. And I can’t tell you how much that means. Just like the neighborhood moms always helped guide me to the proper spirit week choices, you have all helped normalize the range of emotions I’m feeling. So thank you BDFs! I hope I provide 1/10th of the comfort and joy you all bring me.

We truly are a community. And I am so grateful.

Happy May everyone!

Just wanted to drop by and announce my new podcast, Murder She Watched!

Because I’m a little crazy, and since I have brought Timmy on as my editor and producer, I find myself with enough time and space for a new project: a murder show podcast.

If you love watching a true crime documentary or a murder show and enjoy solving that murder from the comfort of your own couch, you my like this podcast!

The first episode of Murder She Watched has dropped and I hope you will all listen! Amanda was my first guest, and next up is Becca.

This podcast will cover true crime documentaries and all things murder shows. I am starting with two a month. I will see how it does. IF it does well and I think people may like it, I will begin to build it out a bit more with a patreon, etc. But for right now, I am just feeling it out and seeing what people think.

If you can, please subscribe so you do not miss an episode.

Today’s first episode covers the documentary: A Deadly American Marriage (Netflix, 2025) and you can find it anywhere you listen to podcasts.

Here it is on Apple. Here it is on Spotify.

THANK YOU to all of you who have been SO supportive of my work. I cannot tell you how much you all mean to me.

PS: We also have a Facebook Group if you’re interested!

Share Little Miss Recap

This month Amanda and I were in Chicago for Podcast Movement and I cannot tell you how meaningful our time was there. To be included amongst some of our favorites, was just mind blowing. We also got down to some strategy, as we are always thinking of ways to make the show better!

So, in that vein, let’s get to the news!

Upcoming Content to Get Excited About

Some exciting changes/additions:

We have committed to doing more documentaries. I have heard your feedback on our survey and there is a want for more docs!

We are bringing back Reality Roundup. Everyone’s favorite trash news show is back!

Also, we are thinking of bringing back Murder Show Monday.

In other content news, we are working ahead and thinking of our next rewatch. Please vote on Patreon if you are a member there: VOTE HERE

If you are not a Patreon member, you can vote in the facebook group.

Huge Patreon Sale

To celebrate TWO years of Little Miss Recap, I am giving you 70% off your first month if you join Patreon before April 30th.

Why Patreon matters: Just a quick note here about why supporting me in this way makes such a huge impact. Because of your support, I am able to be selective with sponsors (no casinos—no diet crap!), but more importantly during weeks when I have no sponsorships (like this week and next…) I am kept afloat by your generosity.

Also, in the rat race of getting signed to a network and getting noticed, I can take my foot off the gas a little bit and know we are making a homegrown show for you. And that’s all that matters. And I work really hard to earn your $8 and make meaningful content for you. So thank you. Sincerely.

Here’s the info on that deal:

TO SIGN UP: www.patreon.com/littlemissrecap
When checking out, use code: BA284

We have a TON of content on Patreon, including murder shows, cult documentaries, Sister Wives rewatch, Gen X Content, and a ton more.

For a current list of our content, CLICK HERE. I have also created a sample playlist of the type of content you have access to as a member. You can listen to 10 free episodes by clicking HERE.

PLEASE NOTE: Supercast is going downhill fast—their tech is getting worse. If you are a current supercast member, you may want to take advantage of this offer as well!

Yellowjackets Finale Party!

Join us on Youtube on April 14th at 8PM EST for a Yellowjackets Finale party where we will be chatting about the show and discussing how we felt about this season. But, more importantly, we will be hearing from you!

Save the date. Here’s the link:

We are looking forward to hearing from all of you! This is open to any BDF watching the show. Not just paid members.

BDF Meetup

Thank YOU to the BDF’s who came out to show us some love in Chicago. I loved meeting each and every one of you. It still amazes me how many of you listen to this little podcast. Here are a few pics:

If you are interested in meeting us, we have a few virtual meetups coming up, and we are working on something huge for Fall!

Finally

I want to thank you again from the bottom of my heart. These last two years have meant everything to me. I started podcasting in 2020 and for three years I did it part time and always dreamed of doing it full time. In April 2023, I started Little Miss Recap and found my people! THEN, I lost my job and threw everything I had into LMR. And here we are!

Your support means the world to me.

As always, reach out with questions, thoughts, comments: amye@littlemissrecap.com

If you’d like to support our side hustles, here is that info:

Amanda creates an amazing podcast bi-weekly with life advice we can all use. You can find it here: Amanda’s Coaching Corner.

You can also book a session with Amanda at: www.amandalipnackcoaching.com

If you’re a reader, I am writing about my girls going off to school. It’s a substack called Mom in the Middle. Much of it is behind a paywall, but if you’re a $12 subscriber to Little Miss Recap, you get it free.

Thank for reading, for listening, and for hanging out with us in this crazy world of reality tv.

We have a lot coming up for you at Little Miss Recap. Let’s start with a few announcements:

Chicago Meetup: Amanda and I will be in Chicago for a conference and are hoping to meet up with some of you. On April 1st, we will be at the Marriott Marquis on S. Prairie Ave in the Food Hall from 5pm to 7pm. PLEASE come by if you can. No need to feel weird or sit out if you are alone. All are welcome and we will embrace you (especially if I’ve had some sweet, sweet wine— I will embrace you several times.)

Mad Men Rewatch: Thank you all for your enthusiasm around the Mad Men rewatch. We promise we will get into season 2 soon. We enjoyed them as much as you did. So please just hang tight!

Yellowjackets Season 2: Amanda and I covered season 2 while it was airing. It was one of the first shows we covered together and covered on the pod. Because Patreon didn't exist yet, that season only lives on the free feed. We then went back and did the 1st season as a rewatch. To save you the search, I made a playlist of the episodes in season 1 and 2:

Discord: We have started a discord for those of you on our Patreon and Supercast tiers. Here’s instructions for connecting Patreon.

My parenting blog: I have recently launched a parenting blog, Mom in the Middle, where I will document this year of launching my girls to college. I have it behind a paywall to mostly protect my girls’ privacy. However, if you are on our $15 dollar or $25 tiers, I will gift you a subscription! Reach out here: amye@littlemissrecap.com

March Content

Here’s your upcoming content. Please reach out with questions.

Ruby Franke doc is HULU, and the Manson family doc is on Netflix.

Little Miss Trashbag will be the The Fox Hollow Murders on HULU.

We are soooooo excited for Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Let’s see how this goes!

A Note on Sponsorships

As you know, sponsors are an important part of the show and Amanda and I are VERY picky about which brands we choose to endorse.

That being said, please take the time to look at the show notes and see if there are any codes you can use to try products that support the show. You can click the links, look around, buy or not, but any interaction with the brand helps!

That being said, here’s a new sponsor we are really excited about!

What We’re Watching:

Amye’s obsessions…

BDF’s, I am finally watching Severance. It took Timmy and I about six weeks to get through our Mad Men rewatch, which is still the best show ever in my opinion, but I’m so happy we got into Severance.

We are still on season 1, and I’d like to recommend to everyone that you stick with it if you find yourself bored at first. It is a slow burn, but it’s worth it.

We also recently finished up Outer Range, on Amazon Prime. It’s a little out there but in a fun, artsy, stylistic way. We really enjoyed it. It’s a western with a sci-fi element.

Finally— in true crime/murder show world, I’m watching the Murders at Fox Hollow Farms which is WILD. We will be covering this with Ace and Katelyn for Little Miss Trashbag.

Amanda’s obsessions…

We’re also watching Severance and we’re deep into season 2 but my new obsession is… The Pitt. BDFs! IT IS SO GOOD! It surely has an ER feel, it’s Noah Wylie and John Wells teaming up again but it is also so different. The story is told in hour chunks so it has the feel of 24. It’s definitely less “soap opera-y” than ER was but as I was telling Todd, ER was at its best when it was more about the medicine and the relationships of working in the ER vs the romance (Carol & Doug, and Mark Greene’s death, notwithstanding). The Pitt nails it. Over time we are learning more and more about the staff and patients and growing to care about them and their stories. Give it a try, I think you’ll love it! And it’s already been renewed for season 2 - YIPPEE!

Amanda’s Coaching Corner

This past week marked the 1 year passing of Garrison Brown. So many who have watched this lovely young man grow up over the years have mourned along with the Brown family. It made me think about grief over all.

There is a saying “grief is love with nowhere to go”. What a powerful thought. What do we do with our grief? How do we process it? How do we talk about it? There is often a misconception that grief is a finite period in your life - you go through it, you feel it, then you’re finished. I think grief lasts forever, it just changes and moves over time. I think of the people I have lost, relationships that have ended or been challenging - the grief isn’t 100% gone, it just shifts and changes over time, just like the rest of our emotions. Every time we open our hearts and let someone else in, we are risking the grief of loss but isn’t that what makes that opening so important and meaningful? What if instead of pushing down, ignoring, or shaming someone for their pain, we give people space to feel how they feel and in that holding space, we give those we care about space to heal.

I hope the Browns feel carried and loved this week and know that their sweet son impacted millions.

If you want to learn more about my coaching practice, feel free to check me out on my website.

We’ve made it through January. It’s been a slow, tough turn of the calendar for many of us and I wanted to use this space to tell you all how much you mean to Amanda and me.

Over the past two years, we have all together created a community we both love and depend on. In our Facebook group, Backdoor Friends, I have witnessed the most touching displays of kindness. I have seen group members asking for support and receiving it without any hesitation. I have watched as friendships have formed and I have formed friendships of my own as well—I know Amanda has as well.

I’m writing this because it has occurred to me that many of us have recently decided to step away from social media for various reasons. And if that’s what you need to do to protect your peace, please know you have my support. I also have been dipping in and out of the noise.

Because of the current atmosphere around big tech platforms like Facebook, Amanda and I are looking into alternative forms of connection.

If you are on our paid feed, you can sign up for Discord. If you are on Patreon, here’s instructions for doing so. If you are a Supercast subscriber, the link should be in your email. If you are subscribed through Apple, we can’t see you or reach you.

We also encourage you to connect and chat with us on Patreon. The app has a pretty decent chat feature and quite a few of you are over there. We are also available by email at amye@littlemissrecap.com and amanda@littlemissrecap.com

We will continue to look for alternative points of connection and keep you all updated.

In the meantime, remember this. Community is everything right now. You are not alone. Dip out if you must, but come back when you can. We will be here.

What’s coming in February?

2 words: A LOT!

It’s our first monthly view for LMR and as you can see - we’re very busy over here! One note, we found out that Scamanda is actually 4 episodes, and not 2 like we originally thought. We’ll drop the first 2 episode recap on February 10 and then the balance later in the month. We’ve got a nice mix of documentaries, the return of Love is Blind, and YELLOWJACKETS! YJ was the first show that Amye and Amanda recapped together and we can’t wait to return to the wilderness and the cult!

Love is Blind - Minneapolis!

We’re going back into the pods for season 8 of Love is Blind. Becca and Amye team up again to chat about these fools for love as they talk through a wall, drink out of gold cups, and maybe fall in love.

Oh Sister Wives….

Puddle Monkey is getting very fancy (or money grabby) this year by launching their first mid-season finale/break/who knows what. Fear not though, we’ve got you covered and we can’t stop, won’t stop talking about Kody and the wives. We pick up our classic rewatch with season 3, episode 8 “Another Wife”. Those episodes will drop Sundays on our Twin Flame feed available on Patreon, Supercast, or Apple Subscriptions. Please note, for the classic rewatch, we don’t drop an abridged episode on the free feed so if you need your fix of the Browns, please join us on the Twin Flame feed.

90 Day Fiance - it’s time for OG!

90DF OG is BACK for season 11 and Amye and Amanda are jumping into the pool. This season looks amazing with our first throuple (Garrick Merrifield style!), our first Iranian cast member and some fan favorites(?) like Sarper….and Sarper, we’ll just leave it there. Join us beginning February 17 as we kick off the new season!

Follow us on Instagram !

Backdoor Friends Give Back

Beginning in February, we are going to highlight an organization that needs our support - now likely more than ever. We decided to kick this off with an organization very near and dear to my (and Amye’s) heart - The Trevor Project. The Trevor Project is a nonprofit focused on suicide prevention efforts for our LGBTQIA+ kids. If you have a little extra to give, we’d love encourage you to join our fundraiser.

Amanda’s Coaching Corner

… is closed this month! No, no it’s not. I’ll be back next month for a dive into some of our favorite folks to watch but for now, I wanted to thank everyone who reached out to me as I relaunch my business. Your kindness and support are deeply appreciated!
