My Husband and I Debate Things We’re Leaving in 2025 (It Gets Hilarious)

Author: Jeanine Amapola January 13, 2026 Duration: 46:09
Welcome back! In this episode, Kaleb and I are dishing out our list of things we're LEAVING BEHIND in 2025. Some are funny, some are deep, and some are... gonna ruffle some feathers. From Christian thirst traps, to overusing the word "trauma," to Gilmore Girls fall reels (Kaleb goes OFF), we are talking about ALL the things that just need to stay in the past. Plus, we get real about friendship dynamics, boundaries, soft launches, scrolling habits, and even church announcements. We also called up our friend Josh Benson to weigh in on the Christian thirst trap convo and he did NOT hold back. This one had us laughing but he also had tons of wisdom! Whether you're here to get a good laugh or some fresh perspective, we hope this episode encourages you to take inventory of what habits, trends, or mindsets you need to leave behind.
