Just know… WE LOVE YOU
LOVE U TOO BITCH!!!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love that y'all genuinely care and it shows!! ❤️ So much love!
Loved ur outfit today!
Y'all should do childhood cartoons. I was born 91; Hey Arnold, Doug, Rugrats, etc...
As always thanks for the content💚
You two are just the best!
Manny! When I was single I started taking myself on dates, I would go to restaurants and sit at the bar and eat. I went to drive in movies by myself, I even took myself to the beach. Once I got completely comfortable being alone is when I found my partner. It gave me so much peace and confidence knowing I can do things on my own I think it lead me to a better place.
wowww i love that!!!
Another thing, I've been watching you two for YEARSSSS I was 16 years old and I am now 23, have 4 kids and my son will sit down with me and watch Manny's makeup videos. I have grown to love the both of you not only as creators but as the inviduals you both are, this pod cast has given me the sense of knowing you how real, raw and vulnerable you are as humans. I love you both and will continue to support your careers 💞
I FEEEEEEL this!!! Same!
we love YOU
we love YOU
I totally agree with y’all about Instagram.. even as a user who is not a content creator it’s the most annoying app! I use it to catch up with people and see pictures I don’t want to see people who I don’t follow 🙄
WHATS THE TEA
Love you, Manny!!!!! Lmao. dude, I hate Instagram, but I'd follow you all on myspace if I have too. Hahaha.
Laura where is the link to the article 😂😔
Just saw an ad yesterday for Pinterest pushing people to post on there esp as a creator & in video form. Ugh
downstairs its earl grey with almond milk made fresh just for you ❤️
Wear shirts like these more often! It looks so good on you! 🤍
RE Pride Month…the exact conversation Black ppl have around Black History Month when brands promote diverse images & stories or push out the same couple MLK quotes for 28 days before swiftly moving on to regularly scheduled (non diverse) programming on March 1.
🔥I just finished Mannys Burlington video and though I’ll check out if they uploaded here yet. 6 minutes ago ?? Talk about the best timing hell yes!!
It was cool to see him go to Burlington lol. I haven’t been there in so long . It’s crazy, they still have the same “makeup” stuff. Wish they would do a little upgrade to that section!!
Yes yes yes. I needed this today. Depression grabbed me this week, and I needed some Laura and Manny.
Same! Hope you feel better.
We love you!
@@laura88lee omg 😱 I'm crying. you have no idea how much this means to me today!!
I LOVE CZcams and long form videos and building a community for sure! It’s such an amazing experience. I also love keeping up with people I’ve watched since high school at that was over 10 years ago
its so hard being an artist on instagram
because youd think a photo sharing app would promote photos right?
no, reels (aka reposted tiktoks) are the only way to get traction and id much rather post my final art piece then stress out making a video
It will never not make me chuckle that IG will do every update on earth except give us what we want. They care more about changing the colors of our message bubbles or moving buttons around than anything else. The incompetency runs deep.
I used to think of Instagram as a scrapbook but now I don't even like posting because my friends and family doesn't even see my photos! I stopped and started posting on Facebook! I am sad the way Instagram has been for several years you guys are on 🎯🎯
I did the same thing
I LOVE when you speak on algorithms. So obsessed. Love yall so much.
I listened to the podcast this morning and loved it, couldn’t wait for the CZcams video. Love you guys!
I look forward to this podcast so much. Love and appreciate you so much 🥹💜🫶
Yayyyy! I was worried you guys weren’t going to post today 🥹❤️ LOVE a Fool Friday!
Love this podcast!🤍🤞🏽
So funny, real & insightful!✨
& I love that yahll brought back the trivia games too!
I absolutely love how I have been following yall since 2015! The evolution and watching yall grow is amazing. Whatever platform I get, I make sure to follow both of you❤️
Laura maybe you could make a video of how you plan your whole week and what your planner typically looks like. I struggle with productivity and taking advantage of my time. I feel like you could really help others like me! Love this podcast so much ❤️
look forward to this podcast every friday, love y’all!
I’ve been waiting all week for this! 🥰 I’m here for some hook up stories 🤣
Watching fool coverage has become my Saturday routine. Everytime I get ready I look forward to this 🖤
You all have done an amazing job navigating all the different content platforms. Don’t stop creating!
I love following yall for reasons like this…. The ability for y’all to relate to your followers and have conversations like this. Y’all are the best and I look forward to y’all’s content more than anyone else.💕
Also, do you notice that youtube and twitter have always stayed on one lane? In their lane, with constant subtle innovation but no drastic changes. This is why they stand the test of time, people compartmentalize them and the app stays “loyal” to its target group. Instagram is the opposite.
Eating alone at a bougie restaurant is my favorite thing to do!!! 100000% recommend
The podcast is my favorite form of content from both of you, and that says something cause i watch all the other videos too 😂
Omg! Loved the Disney Trivia!! You should definitely keep Disney Trivia !!! 😍
I had so much fun answering the Disney trivia with you guys ♥️
I'm relived that I'm not the only one having technical issues with IG. This issue I have with them is I cant change my profile photo I just get an error. I did find a loophole on changing it but IG needs to fix their app.
Been waiting all afternoon for this 🤣
I love this podcast so much you guys are amazing together
Absolutely love Laura's outfit. And also, Manny hit the nail on the head. Big companies/corporations do just use Pride Month as a sale, and it is pandering. It's gross. My husband works in retail and says all the pride/rainbow stuff has to be discounted towards the end of June to get it off the shelves. And for some reason, that really annoys me. It's like the whole meaning of it is lost, and it's just another thing to virtue signal about.
I agree, y’all are great about being on all platforms. I follow you both on all & love that I feel like I’m up in ALL your business 🤣🤣
I'm so early😍 I'm always checking for fool coverage to be posted.. my favorite podcast!
I love listening to the podcast, you guys are sooo funny and entertaining. I always look forward to it. Laura has always been the same funny, genuine person and Manny so real and funny as well, and manny hasnt changed with repeating everything laura says 😂😂 i love it!
My favorite podcast and having it on CZcams too even thought I can picture the reactions. We need a part 2 of the declutter makep at mannys
Ahhh!! I loved this episode! I was playing along with the trivia and I got 8 right! So fun! Love you all so much!❤️
AMEN FAMILY!! i fell for you two individually years ago and this is why i watch yalls podcast. youtube is 100% FAMILY
YAAAAASSSS!!!! Thank you. I literally don’t watch ANY regular television, I only watch CZcams on my TV, everyday, for hours! Everyday I come home, turn the tv on, go to CZcams, and go to my subscriptions ready to sit back, relax, and watch long form content. All of the shorts cluttering my feed makes me insane! Happy to see at least some people also realize the inconvenience
As I’m watching this I hopped on IG for a second and just learned that you can stop IG from showing you suggested posts for 30 days! Wish it was forever but when a suggested post is shown on your feed you can click the little three dots on the right and then click not interested 🙌🏽
I love y’all & I love the trivia sm 😂❤️
Ahhh I literally got every trivia answer right and I was screaming at y’all 😩🤣🤣🤣.
Love you guys so much!! ❤️
please just an entire podcast of trivia because i love it so much
Loved this! I've been working in social media for 3-4 ish years now and Instagram is just so wild to me! the fact the they so obviously and aggressively compete with other apps to try to stay the top social app by taking popular features from competition and implementing them instead of coming up with new features for instragram is just wild. Like it worked the first few times where they took stories and then snapchat started to die but i think what they're doing to try to compete with tiktok is not going to work in their favour this time.. they're alienating users with all the shitty algorithm and feature updates in recent years which will leave space for another photo app to swoop in and take their place! idk why they didn't just focus on the fact that they were the top photo sharing app...
Loved this convo SOOOO MUCH. and TOTALLY AGREE ABOUT THE SHORTS!!!! GIVE THEM THEIR OWN SECTION OMG
I have been watching Laura since I was about 20. Shortly after, I found Manny. I’m 28 now and still love y’all’s content. I look forward to the podcast every Friday as well!
Opened so fast!! This came at the perfect time!! 😆
Loving this disney trivia! 😍
what i would do to hug manny. i adore him he’s my safe person been watching you for years and you just give me happiness
I think it is the lack of strategy from instagrams side. They are known for the way of sharing pictures , they can still innovate but it would be more effective and satisfying for your target group if the app is still mainly focused on pictures, and that also means that pictures will be the most rewarding thing you can do on the app. This situation today is horrible, nobody can tell anymore what their strategy and purpose is? So mang different things without something taking the star position. Their quantity of acitivities lowers their quality
Yep. Cause Pinterest added short video to its photo-based platform but it isn’t sinking its own ship. Clearly there’s a lack of strategy, planning, and understanding for what IGs original secret sauce was.
I have absolutely no social media and it’s wonderful. I don’t miss one bit of it.
I need to mention something I’ve experienced with IG, I noticed that I get more views on my IG stories when ppl interact. I’m not a creator or anything, but when ppl interact on my stories (likes, responses, and reactions) I get wayyyy more views as opposed to stories where I only get a few likes or responses. So now I feel like IG may also hide or not show your stories where your followers aren’t really interacting, idk just an observation
I so agree on CZcams having a tab for the shorts, it would make it a lot smoother.... other than that love me some Laura and Manny 😍😍
Soooo happy it's "Fool Friday"!!! I love you both for many reasons. But...put you two together and it's a match made in heaven! Watching y'all have conversations with each other as if y'all are sitting at a table is refreshing in the "influencer" space. Most people are just portraying what they think people want to see/hear. Y'all talk about influencer shit but honestly. It's so interesting because it's not my world. I watch on YT 500x more than any other app. If y'all mention someone, or tag/collaborate with someone, I am more likely to go check em out because I am like "If Manny and/or Laura likes this person or recommends them? I'm down. I've even unsubbed from people based partly on recommendations or stories by y'all. I make my own decisions, but I like info from all directions to help me make those decisions.
Love y'all to the moon! Just keep on keepin on 😉❤💄🔥
My favorite freaking podcast…The only thing I hate is that I love to listen to you guys while I’m working and I can’t cause you come out Friday and I’m so busy during the week😩😩😩HOWEVER it gives something to look forward to Monday ❤️ lol love you all
I’ve been refreshing CZcams for this video ALL DAY!!!
It’s also business accounts! I market my business heavily on socials and it is SO HARD to get my posts pushed on ig. I’m slowly falling in love with TikTok because it’s SO relatable
PLEASEEEE do a Kardashians trivia! Who knows the Kardashians best! For your next trivia :DD please and thank you! I love you your podcasts and CZcams channel!!
seriously feel like you all are my best friends 😭💕 Love you guys and Fridays!!
Manny can relate to going out alone! I forced myself to start going out alone and it was so amazing and taught me so much about me. My favorite thing I used to do is go to my favorite dive bar and is read books and study tarot in a back booth alone. It was so liberating being alone in a busy place but have my own space, and believe it or not, it brought people to me who were just curious what I was doing. I defiantly recommend self dates!
Disney trivia was so fun to watch and listen too 💕☺️
Loveee you guys so much❤️🥰
Dry erase marker??? Laura was ready to TEACH CLASS!!!! She played with the marker for most of the podcast. She is always planning and doing and I bet she has a dry erase board off to the side to plan during breaks. Love you guys!!!
I love watching you guys 🤍☺️ I’ve rewatched some of your previous videos because y’all are that good!! 👏🏼🫶🏼
I was actually going to try to go out and eat alone at a sit down restaurant tonight! That’s so funny that Manny brought that up. I had the same sort of feeling too. But I’m working on being more comfortable alone. 😁
You guys are so right about CZcams being a fam. I would occasionally watch Laura Lee. But now I love to watch her channel. And I'm not really wearing makeup because I still wear a mask. But I bought Manny's latest makeup drop. I want to support him 💓🌹
To be fair… considering manny’s pit… every company is going to highlight something big that’s happening that month. Valentine’s Day. Mother’s Day. Black history month. Easter…. All of them get their own kind of month basically to highlight and brand for whatever it is that’s going on. I understand his point, but I think that’s a point to be had as well.
I just want to say how much I luv I guys and I have been watching from the beginning and u make my day ❤️💄
I follow both of you on U tube.... really enjoy all of your vids..every one of them.. Fool coverage is almost like I'm sitting at the kitchen table with you guys... WOULD LOVE LOVE THAT!!!!! ❤️
The Disney trivia was the best!!!! I'd love to see more Disney trivia
Love y’all soo much
Y’all should do a mean girl’s trivia
Yessss my favorite podcast ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I needed this advice yall thank you so much! ♥ my reels randomly blew up and im gaining traction on my ig, ppl are asking me to take my content to youtube, hearing yall say GET ON CZcams im doing it!!! God Bless
When Tyler said kapa for life I died LMAO! 😂😂😂
Loved this!
Manny definitely got “WHATS GOIN ON” goin on in my head 24/7 now too lol
Not me watching in my Oozma Kappa shirt 😅 The Disney trivia had me screaming! 😂
Yaaaas! It’s Fool Friday!!
I used to love IG but lately I’m not even getting notifications for posts I’ve been tagged in. I’ll be scrolling and then see myself (or rather, the book I wrote) in a post and notice I’ve been tagged…weeks ago!! But never got notified. It drives me insane.
Also, vanishing posts/reels are the bane of my existence.
I loved this episode! My feelings feel so validated 😂
I’m totally a family member! I couldn’t help but find y’all on every dang platform. #lifer ❤️🙌🏼
I literally love this Tricia OMG!
Loved this episode
Manny, YOU BETTER BRING IS WITH YOU ON THIS NEW HOUSE JOURNEY. Every detail. Please. 🤣❤️
Ty, that was the HARDEST Disney trivia I’ve ever heard!
I loveeee you guys but would love for new wallpaper for the podcast lol lauralee decor transformation would be amazing
I LOVEEEEEEE TRIVIA! Omg I was screaming at my phone and my husband looked at me like I was crazy 😩😂😂😂
Yesss Fool Friday! 💘 🐧
I literally just made a tik tok about this situation with Instagram. Couldn’t agree more with all of this. I miss the good old days.
Ohhhhhhhhhh yessssssssss! Love me some FOOL COVERAGE!!! My favorite DUO….. well, Maybe it’s really a TRIO!! Haha I love all 3 of you!!! 💜🤍💗💜🤍💗💜🤍💗💜🤍💗
I love you two!!
I love CZcams I'm usually on CZcams more than anything. You guy's are so right about the shorts on CZcams, I wish they had a different section just for them. I don't like how it's on my homepage either, I like watching longer videos lol. Especially obsessed with you two & watching the podcast!! I love my Friday night's after I get my two boy's to bed, work week is finished thank God & time to watch my fool's 🤣💜 I loved the trivia so fun, I love Disney but I couldn't remember them myself either lol. You guy's should try doing the trivia on eachother, I think that would be fun to watch and even learn more about you guy's!!! So sorry this is so long if one of you actually reads this 😆 love you guys!
I think we need disney trivia every week.
Yasss Fool Coverage always makes my Friday night!!! 💗💙 love you both ❤️
I totally agree on the “youtube shorts”. Annoying to be scrolling for hours just for me to find the long videos
Manny, your pit is so relatable for anyone in a marginalized community and I empathize and identify with your frustration. From Pride month to Black history month to Asian American Pacific Islander heritage month, etc. It’s like brands and people in general take it as their opportunity to cash in or pass as inclusive and accepting when any other time of the year they are tone deaf or just ignorant to the realities people face every day. Love you both 💜✨
I loved the Disney trivia!!!!
Im 29 and love eating by myself lol it’s not weird at all. I literally just had breakfast at a new spot this morning by myself ☺️ Was so relaxing
I caught the “come really quick” also 🤣🤣🤣
You guys are so right about the CZcams shorts. I will literally binge watch content creator videos all day. But if they have shorts on that video tab I move on to a different content creator.
