The Op-ed: Average Video Podcast Teaser Trailer
I love your true crime episodes <3 Although, it is sad to hear that the families are suffering and did not receive closure from their missing loved ones. Hope they do get some closure one day. I just got my OA candle and I am OBSESSED with the scent. I have it on my work desk and smelling it as we speak while listening to your episode. Love you ladies!
🧟♀👰You guys had a nice positive spin on the concept of surprise weddings, but i feel like that's an asshole move to friends and family. i briefly looked at r/weddings on the topic and someone brought up a scenario where what if you're a guest and you had a bad day at work but you have this party to go to. You might show up later and only intend to be there for an hour or so, or not even go at all. Only to find out later that you missed your friend's wedding. But if you knew it was a wedding, you might get the day off of work to make sure you're there. But yeah after pulling this kind of stunt that i already think is an asshole move, i think it's silly to then be mad that someone dressed up (on theme!) as a corpse bride at what was presented as a fun costume party, but was secretly a surprise wedding.
These true crime eps are so interesting but make me sad thinking how their families must feel with no closure :(
🥂congrats on one year! im so behind, but slowly catching up.
@@TimManuelMiranda We appreciate your support! ❤️
I had a friend that one time got so frustrated about their roomies unwashed dishes, he took them all and left them on his roomies bed @___@ 🍪 🫧 🍽️ 🫧 🍪
🏊♂️🛝🌊 oh man….i would’ve freaked out in that scenario, Mon! I always wondered why we had to take off our shirts to go down the slide cuz I was a pretty husky boy so I’d always wear a shirt when we’d go to Waterworld.
@@davemetran1539 Good information to know! 😂 I’m a tshirt person too!
🧟👰♂️ finally catching up! So many OA AITAs. Ppl just need to calm down and be supportive to their friends getting married no matter if they’re overflow lol…although the sibling being overflow is kinda wild…unless there’s more to the story 😹
@@davemetran1539 Yes! We agree! But I get why the sibling is upset. Sounds crazy! Gotta be more to the story.
In the vegan summary: What if the vegan friend was just trying to get out of going to the destination wedding? She may not have purchased her ticket and was trying to find any excuse in not going 😆
I never thought of that and its super valid and could be very true. I was wondering why the friend would cancel plans already booked because of a meal. Excellent theory!
I’m shy 🙈
:)
I love you guys 🥹🥲
TY for being since an inspiration!
Great episode! Happy Podaversary!
Congrats to our big winner!
Awww listening brought me back to the cruise lol I wish we were still onnnnnnn…the hashbrowns…the chicken parm…the eggs benni all day…and ice cream and soft serve. Take me baaaack!
Such a good time! 😻
Oh gosh, the memory is so triggering! So happy you guys got to finally go on the cruise :) Looking forward to hearing more about it!
Hehehe I don’t have to enter even though I asked if I can. Can save entry for other listeners :) Congratulations on the anni!!!! My question: Am I the @$$hole? 😹
Entered
Here’s my question for ya: If you could un-invent something what would it be and why?
Entered!
Hi ladies! Let me know what is the next book :) Hope you both enjoy the cruise and come back very relaxed. As for entering the giveaway, my question is - What inspires the both of you and how do you/what do you hope for yourselves a year from now?
Entered!
I will message you the next book info! Hope you are well.
💰💸💵🤑💳 Another episode to get me through the day! Call me a girl mathematician lol
You have a PhD in girl math! 🤣❤
📚 🐭 🏰 🥱 cool to see the photos of stuff on the video podcast! I'm overdue for a disney trip. I haven't been since my grad night 16 years ago and havent ever been to California adventure. Im bummed i missed last book club, but im looking forward to the next session. In fact, ive been behind on podcast episodes cause i was spending time finishing fourth wing to catch up to iron flame and finish that to prepare for book club.
We cannot wait for Book Club this month and hope you are enjoying the read. See you soon!
✈️ 💩 Philippines was memorable for me too. And a week long trip that included Paris, London, and Reykjavik (though that was just a layover overnight and not enough time). I also relate to mostly traveling only with family and not having much experience otherwise.
I love Paris, London and Reykjavik! We'll be changing your family travel only soon! It will be a blast!
🤑👜💸 Girl Math is my kinda math! I’m an expert at it 🫠🥴
I think your main girl math reasoning would be rare items that are not easy to find so you HAVE to buy them! 🤣
X aka Get That Shit Done Generation!
Obviously I'm bias (It's Anna) lol but 100% agree! Thanks for listening!
💻📱💳 dude that first case sounded like a twisted Rapunzel/Mother Gothel type of thing and Flynn Ryder was the bf. I feel like the mom watched too much Days of Our Lives. And the one from the South Bay is crazy @__@ you mentioned not as crazy/intense as the first case, but it really sounds like a lotta ppl got screwed over financially and didn’t get a penny back for it :-/ Can’t wait to hear more of these true crime episodes not during Halloween :P
We're so glad you found it intriguing! We appreciate you watching. Yes, for the second case, definitely a lot of emotional abuse going on towards a lot of people. Even if you didn't get your money back, people helped in different ways. Which is very sad! LOL! Days of our lives!
Gen Y / Millennial in tha houseeee lol
Where are the Gen X-ers at?!?
I want to eat all the food :P
Hi ladies! I’m one of the listeners who is addicted to learning about and listening to true crime 😅 Definitely here for it and sending encouragement for these kinds of videos (as long as they aren’t spooky or scary lol). There’s some cases about just straight up scamming that i tend to lean in on 😂 not far from these cases on this episode!
We're glad you are into this type of content. It's super crazy and interesting. We'll have more in the future for sure!
I haven't gone on a "night time" Disneyland trip! Sounds like a lot of fun and hopefully one day me and Jorge can go when the babe is older lol. Would love to join in on the next book club! Looked like so much fun! 🐭😴🛌📖🐉
We think you would get a kick out of the Disney After Dark events! Esp Oogie Boogie with El!
📖 🏰 🥱 that was fun to hear about the Disney trip :P hehehe and again thanks for the fun book club! Can’t wait for iron flame sesh! Hope I can make it!
Yes! We cant wait til the next one!
There’s no IG post for me to reply to lol ✈️💩
It's there now! Please start us off! 😂
Oh man…Anna probably got triggered by the hostel I stayed at on my recent LA trip lol
I was more worried about your safety, but could not get over the blinds and garbage bags out of my head! LOL
Let’s go to the Philippines next year ;)
YESSSSSS!!!!
I think the fiancé, BIL and parents are all assholes! Principles lacking in that family he’s marrying into. Ooofff! Great listen and very sweet to watch you two!
Thank you for watching! Yes, I could not imagine loaning out something that was not mine. And the family also backing that up. Crazies!
🦖Great job, Jay! I definitely have opinions for each scenario and I mostly aligned with what you both mentioned. For the particular scenario you wanted to hear about, I do think that both fiance and her bro are both @$$holes--moreso, the fiance for lending out something without telling her partner. The bro-in-law, regardless of how much the coat was worth, should've been more responsible for it even though he was drunk-next day he could've inquired lost and found instead of letting it go off the radar for so long. Instead of the dude finding out about it when he wanted to use it, why didn't anyone tell him that they lost it?⛵
Red flags all around with that family! Steer clear!
Can’t wait for the next one!!! I’m sticking to my theory!!! Lol
Because of your theory, I was half expecting to see that family member at the end of Fourth Wing!
Good job JJ and Monica! 🦖⛵️ Here's my take, Naan boy - A-hole Disney mom/sister - A-hole DNA grandma- questionable Valentine GF - A-hole Baseball husband - A-hole (are they still married 😂) $700 coat - the girl is clearly the A-hole
Thank you so much for taking the time to listen! LOL Naan boy! 😂 And seriously the baseball hubby was unbelievable!
📝📓🗣📒 W editing, ong, straight fax, no cap. the generation cutoffs are rough estimates depending where you look, but one way to break it down from a source i found is: baby boomers born 1946-1955, gen X born 1965-1980, Millennials (also gen Y but more commonly referred to as millennials) born 1981-1996, Gen Z born 1997-2012, and then they ran out of alphabet and went beck to gen alpha for those born after 2012. I would guess that depending where you look, and what cutoffs they use, Anna might be considered in the millennial camp instead of gen x.
Thanks for the comment, Tim! I know I have seen it where I could either be a young gen X or an old millennial! I prefer to be in the gen X category since my kid is a millennial. ;)
@@OAPodcast hah didnt think of that. i think i would have similar feelings in that situation.
🗣️📒 Dear OA Podcast, it definitely would be interesting to hear some of the older Dear Abby’s. Some of the ones you shared in this ep made me say “walang hiya” out loud LOL. Also…I learned what “rizzed up” meant when Jay used it in one of our recordings while talking about a video game he played last year LOL…so maybe Jay might be good at current lingo 😹
Jay and I can get into ironic gen z slang back and forths from what we know from internet spaces. and being millennials using that slang makes us "cheugy"
LOL!
🎇 Congrats on the new video pod!!! That was funnnnn 🎉 Excited for Book Club 🌶️
Thank you for watching! :)
Finally starting the video pods!
We have come a long way since the 60's LOL. I am a fan of the Dear OA/Dear Abby! Thanks for your consistent posting ladies. I love listening and watching you both while I'm typing away at work. I have to remember to keep my giggles and gasps to myself 😜
We are so grateful for your support. And yes, aren't those old questions crazy???😵💫
🎆congrats on the new youtube! I look forward to seeing and listening in 2024. My mom does the grapes thing and it's a whole thing on NYE to remove what is now grapes from the previous year and putting up new grapes for the new year. I think all the round stuff is borrowed from chinese culture and adopted by filipinos as well. I know it more as a thing for birthdays than new years, but I guess filipinos/chinese also eat noodles on NYE to represent a long life.
Thanks for watching! :) So your mom keeps the grapes on year round and then replaces them on NYE? Very cool!
Hi Ladies! Love this direction of seeing and listening to you! Makes me feel like we’re FaceTiming and together for girl time ♥️
Thank you for taking the time! XOXO
