Summary

The new podcast studios are up and running. Are Kelly and Lizz ready to introduce themselves as podcasters? It does sound a little better than 'influencer'. Either way, they are ready to make 2026 the year of The Carpool Podcast! Kelly is starting things off strong with a Fast Lane Philosophy that will get you thinking. "Don't compare your start to someone else's middle?" This leads into a conversation on comparing yourself to others on social media, finding the right sources and learning from those that have done it all. It's been a while, but the Millennial Word of the Day is BACK! Do you know what an "Unk" is? Lizz has an explanation. Luckily, it's not as annoying as the 6-7 craze... Kelly and Lizz both have products in the Detail Shop that you're going to want to hit 'add to cart' on. First, Kelly is obsessed with the new dry shampoo she recently tried. But not so obsessed with the med spa facial she recently tried out. Lizz is working on getting out of her ugly era and the beef tallow she recently tried seems to be doing the trick. An advice question came in from a mom that is on a journey to become a truck mom. Is there a good electric truck she should look for? Since they are on the subject of cars, it's the perfect way to transition into Industry News with the Top 10 Best Selling Cars of 2026. Did your favorite make the list? Finally in Ditch the Drive-Thru, Lizz is making Pesto Chicken Pasta and Kelly is raining on her parade. Then it's time for 'Dancing with the Stars' predictions. Will Andy finally go home?!?
