Summary

This week on Pretty Basic, Remi is fresh off the final stop of her cookbook tour and recaps the whirlwind experience—from fans waiting out in a literal downpour to surreal full-circle moments. Alisha joins her on the NYC leg of the tour, living her best plus-one life while sharing solo adventures around the city. Remi also shares some exclusive behind-the-scenes moments from the tour. Back in LA, Alisha celebrates her birthday… which somehow includes meatballs, snakes, and death—because of course it does.
