Summary
Carla and Dex are officially back for the first episode of the new year and there's a lot to catch up on. After a brief stretch of audio-only episodes, the duo is back in the studio and back in their groove.
From holiday bar crawls and questionable screen time habits to life with Debo the cat, Disney adults, and everything that's unfolded behind the scenes, this episode feels like a much-needed reset. No heavy agenda, just real-life updates, laughs, and that familiar "okay… so what now?" energy.
Hit play, settle in, and welcome back — we missed you.
