(upbeat music) - Welcome to "You Didn't Ask" podcast. - I'm Megan. - And I'm Chloe, and we're here to answer all the questions that you ask. (upbeat music) - Hello, everyone. Long time to speak. (laughing) - We're back. - You are back. - Finally, it's been a long time. - Y'all, so much has happened since-- - Yeah. - There's just been a lot going on, and you would think, like, when you're old and you have a job, that summer wouldn't be as busy, but it's still really busy. So, a lot of few things that we've been going on-- - So, yeah, cut just up on what's been going on, Megan. - Yeah, so Chloe graduated Mississippi State, MBA, Master's Vibes, she did it. She walked across, even though she said she wouldn't, we're proud of her. (laughing) - Yeah, thank you. - And I got engaged. - Yay, really exciting. - And crazy, y'all pray for me in the planning. - Yeah. - But yeah. So, Chloe got graduated school, I got engaged. We went to the lake one weekend, I went camping, I was off the grid, I didn't have service. It was, it's just been a lot, it's been a lot going on. But, we decided to take the time to prepare for our season three that is upcoming. We're really, really excited about it. So, with all these things that we've been doing recently, we just got to think in, you know, life is just such a crazy thing at this age. Like, everyone is doing so many different things. Some people are getting married, some people are moving across the country, some people are joining the military, like all kinds of things are happening around this time of your life and everyone's just kind of at a different spot for the first time. And so, Chloe, tell us a little bit about the season, what's coming, what we're gonna call it, what to expect, et cetera. - Yeah, so I know a lot of people that I've talked to just recently, it's so interesting being in your 20s because when you're in high school, everybody's kind of doing the same thing. You might have different hobbies and all that, but generally, you're in the same phase of life. And then, same when you're in college, you're all kind of just in the college bubble and you're doing that. But then once you get into your 20s, like everybody is doing so many different things and nobody's life looks the same. You know, I have friends that are married with kids and then I have friends that are single, like I am, and are just living their life and then I have some friends that are engaged and I have some friends that are working their dream job and I have some friends that are working a temporary job. You know, there's just so many things and we're all doing different things. - Yeah, you know, people are going to grad school, they're doing all sorts of stuff. And so, we kind of wanted to shed light on this and also just like get a bunch of people that we know talking about it. We wanna get some really cool people on here to just talk about kind of how you navigate your 20s and how that looks different for everyone and how just I guess normalizing the different phases of this time of our lives. I feel like it can be really easy to compare yourself to other people and be like, oh, I wish I was doing that or I wish I had that. But when you think about it, there are so many people in your age that are also going through the exact same thing that you are. So we kind of wanted to do this new little season and kind of shift into some not like serious content. Like I'm not saying we're gonna be boring, we're still on this. - We're dumbing both of you. - Yes. But we did think it was like a really cool time, especially with like the two of us being in fairly different phases of life and things like that to kind of do a season like this where we're able to talk about all these different things that we have going on in our 20s and people around us and people that we know. And hopefully somebody that comes on the podcast and you'll be able to relate to and be like, oh yeah, that's kind of where I'm at too. So that's what this next season is gonna be. We're really, really excited for it. I think it's gonna be really cool to just get different people perspectives. And yeah, I'm really excited. - We love having people like come on and like having our friends and people that we know just like share the podcast with us. It's just so fun to have more people on and especially when they're talking about things that they're doing in life that are different from things that we're doing. So we're really excited to talk about just all of the different things you can do in your 20s. And like Chloe said, it's very easy to compare and be like, well, she's doing that. Should I be doing that? Like, I'm just going to work. Should I, should I not gonna work? Should I go like do something crazy? Like, you know, and like, you know, you can get in this kind of spiral of like, well, she's doing this, should I? Or he's doing this, does that mean I'm supposed to? And you kind of just do this little weird thing because like she said, high school, we're all working towards college, college, we're all working towards our job or whatever. And then all of a sudden you're like out in the world and no one's telling you what to work for. And you're just like, what do I do? So yeah, so just a very vulnerable time in our little 20 something year old lives. So we're really excited to talk about it and just have a little more serious time. No, this is just a short little intro segue episode this week to kind of explain what we're doing next. So not a lot else to say, but just be looking out for us. Follow us on our social medias. You didn't ask podcast on Instagram, just to keep up with who the guests are gonna be and what we're gonna talk about 'cause there might be one that you're like, oh, I wonder what it's like to be a firefighter at age 20. Or like, I wonder what it's like to work in theater in New York at age 20, you know, different things like that that you just may start your interest, but you don't know about it. So make sure you follow us on Instagram and get involved there. I think you're for being patient with us because we're all out here just trying to get through our 20s, okay, all of the 20 everything. Yeah, so yeah, sorry we've been kind of MIA, but we are officially back and follow us on Instagram when we like post about this new season so that you can like know when we'll be posting episodes or to look for them, when to look out for them because it'll all be over there.
