Author: My Cultura and iHeartPodcasts June 11, 2026 Duration: 51:42

This week on More Better, Steph and Mel are talking beats. Makeup, honey. Is it patriarchy? Is it fun? Are you a winter or a summer? Settle into our virtual glam room and listen as our girls discuss and explain why doing your own makeup is actually a genius anxiety management strategy and the power of a full beat. Did they play "What's in my makeup bag"? Of COURSE they did! Take notes as Steph walks us through her tiny miracle bag and Mel unpacks her glamorous trash bag and pay attention as they offer up the ultimate challenge: Going to dinner with your nighttime skincare routine already done and zero makeup on. It's all fine, babe!

You know that conversation you have with your closest friend, the one that swings from deeply personal struggles to absurd observations about a grocery store encounter? That’s the space More Better with Stephanie & Melissa occupies every week. Real-life friends and actors Stephanie Beatriz and Melissa Fumero, known for their roles on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, bring their authentic, hilarious, and supportive dynamic straight to your ears. This isn’t a structured advice show; it’s the sound of two amigas figuring it out as they go, and inviting you along for the ride. They tackle the messy, beautiful, and often ridiculous aspects of modern life-from parenting and career pivots to cultural identity and just getting through the day. The heart of this podcast is in their unwavering friendship, where they genuinely help each other navigate challenges, aiming for that “more better” version of themselves. Listeners are essentially eavesdropping on a priceless, laughter-filled phone call where the cheat codes for adulting are shared alongside vulnerable confessions and uncontrollable giggles. Produced by My Cultura and iHeartPodcasts, the show lives in the rich intersection of Society and Culture, exploring how personal stories connect to bigger pictures. Tune in for a weekly dose of camaraderie that feels like a much-needed hangout, guaranteed to leave you feeling a bit more seen and a lot more better.
