Liz and Jessi Face Their Greatest Fears
2026/10/06
Beginning in 1993, Vanity Fair magazine ran its first “Proust Questionnaire” on the back page of its print issue. The questionnaire was popularized by the French author and essayist, Marcel Proust, who thought the collection of 35 questions could reveal a person’s most authentic self. Liz and Jessi think sometimes quickly, and sometimes way too deeply, about these questions, discuss being drawn as a cartoon, and ponder how they would like to die.

Liz and Jessi In Conversation with Jessi and Liz
2026/08/18
Liz and Jessi make good on their promise to bring us into their group chat – because they text All. Day. Long.

It’s cute, it’s vulnerable, it’s real.
