Ep. 32 - Creativity is the Opposite of Anxiety

2026/11/04

Grab a drink, because I have so much life to catch you up on! Between surviving full-blown auntie mode with Sofia (including a near-faint at the pumpkin patch), dressing up as Kiss for a concert only to get completely shut down at the door over face paint, and having to flex my actual Steve Austin credentials at my golf lesson, it’s been a chaotic week. Plus, Bobby drops in for his minute, and we wrap it up with some honest thoughts on comfort zones and keeping our heads on straight. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 31 - I Nearly Missed My Flight to Seal My Dad's Ashes

2026/10/15

I’m officially 41, and instead of going to New York, I celebrated right here at home with crab legs, fancy golf, and Travis’s elite pumpkin brioche French toast. But first, I’m recapping how we almost ended up at the entirely wrong airport and missing the flight to seal my dad's ashes, a sweet family reunion in Corpus Christi, and my grand plans to cash in on every single birthday freebie October has to offer. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 30 - Golf Therapy, Tandem Bike Chaos, & Crawling Out of My Funk

2026/10/01

Welcome to episode 30, where I’m reminding myself (and you!) to celebrate the little wins. From almost breaking 100 on the golf course to surviving an out-of-control tandem bike ride, I’m recapping how good food, a little movement, and a wild weekend snapped me right out of my slump. Plus, I'm getting into why depression can't hit a moving target and wrapping up with a little old-school workplace karma tea. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 29 - Surviving the heat: Cougar game day, claw machines & bayou alligators

2026/09/23

We’re battling the relentless Texas heat one podcast at a time. I'm bringing you along on everything I've done since we last talked including getting my whole crew into an air conditioned stadium suite, winning the claw machine despite my niece Sophia's best efforts, emceeing ALMAAHH Day, and every tangent in between. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 28 - How I Landed on Hello Houston

2026/09/02

I’m finally sitting down to catch y'all up on the whirlwind that’s been my life lately! I dive into the real story behind how I ended up the co-host on Hello Houston, jumping into the ocean with a pod of dolphins, and spilling the tea on everything I've been watching and eating. (Hint: reality TV and BBQ) ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 27 - My big life updates

2026/07/21

I’m finally back with a massive life update! From spilling tea with my besties in a Valley hot tub under a full moon to somehow talking my way into Galveston's 4th of July parade, things have been double hectic. I’m also diving into why my brain insists I lived on the beach in L.A. even though I didn't, how I handle online haters who try to slide into my DMs, and what really went down on my latest trips. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 26 - Visiting the wineries in Paso Robles

2026/06/30

I’m back in California and getting hit with all the nostalgia! From the mountains to the wineries, I’m taking you along on my getaway trip to visit my powerhouse firefighter bestie Gigi. Plus, I tell you all about the embarrassing time I accidently sent a sexy picture to half of Corpus Christi. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 25 - I'm in a Netflix show

2026/06/20

Houston is teeming right now, and I am absolutely living for the World Cup energy going on in the city right now! Plus, your girl made it on the new season of Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders on Netflix and I couldn't believe it. I'm also recapping my 10/10 dining experiences at Ojo de Agua and Numero28 and why I think Bunny and Jelly Roll's divorce announcement is giving major stage-managed vibes. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 24 - TikTok eye remedies and why my nalga is on fire

2026/06/10

I have officially kicked off my self-care summer, though my nalga clearly didn't get the memo after an aggressive workout. This week, I am diving deep into my absolute obsession with the new season of Love Island AKA Clench Island, explaining why Houston is entirely superior to Dallas, and recapping a wild night out that included a FIFA event, an unexpected trip to a police station for air conditioning, and a late-night comedy show. Plus, I share a beautiful piece of Disney trivia that completely melted my cold heart. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 23 - I’m Basically Wonder Woman (and Travis is Haunting Me)

2026/06/02

I’m back, babies! Last week I was completely missing in action because I was in the trenches cosplaying as a mother to my two-year-old niece, Sophia. This week, I’m pretty sure I officially earned my superhero cape after stepping in last-minute to emcee a gala and casually rubbing elbows with the mayor. Back at home, I’m dealing with Travis constantly interrupting my flow from his dungeon, trying to understand why TikTok scammers are copying me when I’m literally unemployed, and learning how to actually listen to my body before I snap an ACL. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 22 - I'm so close to breaking 100 on the golf course

2026/05/19

I’m sharing my latest obsession in this episode: breaking 100 on the golf course. Travis promised me a brand new bag and a fancy golf trip if I can pull it off, so you better believe I’m getting my cheap Academy clubs re-gripped and getting back on the course after this pod. Oh, and we need to talk about this Spice Girls lore I just learned about and a piece of advice for women to live longer. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 21 - I’m Officially a Land Dweller: My Alaskan Cruise Recap

2026/05/13

I’m back from Alaska and I have a confession: I don’t think I’m a cruise person! In this episode, I spill all the tea from my trip including all the excursions we got to do and Travis nearly being crowned the best voice on the ship. I also talk about emceeing an Avda luncheon and share some unfortunate news about one of my closest friends. ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 20 - I'm back on Houston radio this week

2026/04/30

I may not have a full time job, but somehow I’m busier than ever! Between driving a badass Ford Bronco to San Antonio and starting the new I-10 Golf Classic, I’m learning that I might be varsity at everything else, but golf is still humbling me. I’m also sharing a story about my new golf mentor, Gary, and why I'm still supporting this Rockets team even though they hurt me. Check me out on Hello Houston: https://youtu.be/ZLsIOoXTJT0?t=2773 ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 19 - Reuniting with The Rod Ryan Show + exciting opportunities

2026/04/21

So much to get to today! From reuniting with my radio family at The Rod Ryan Show golf tournament, to my trip to San Antonio for the IFL game, and trying to register my house as an Airbnb without losing my mind over city fees. Plus, I’m sharing how I’m trying to monetize my dopamine—from TikTok trials to potentially bossing men around as a professional coach. Do me a favor and be extra silly today! ~Follow me on social~ IG: https://www.instagram.com/tess1tess2/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tess1tess2

Ep. 18 - We are so back

2026/04/13
