Stassi is deep in the English countryside, living out her Jane Austen dreams—but with a side of Taco Bell delivery. Joined by Auntie Al and C-O-Lo, she’s juggling parenting, sightseeing, and a few very unexpected roommates (think bats, spiders, and sheep). From winding Cotswold roads and magical villages to pig-in-a-blanket surprises and Amazon packages arriving faster than in L.A., this trip has been anything but ordinary. Along the way, Stassi shares their favorite Cotswold towns, explains why graveyards are secretly joyful, and keeps it real about how social media makes the countryside look picture-perfect—when in reality, it’s crowded, messy, and still completely magical.

Stassi’s in England with C-O-Lo, recording old-school style in a hotel room—no cameras, no plan, just like the early podcast days. But between a work trip, no nanny, and Beau forgetting the stroller, it’s been pure survival mode. “Auntie Al” flew in to help wrangle the kids after the nanny couldn't go, while Messer decided mid-flight that he only wanted his mom (goodbye wine-and-period-piece fantasy). They dive deep into Stassi’s period piece obsession—her best, worst, and most historically inaccurate picks—and sneak in a little countryside magic between toddler alarms and winding village roads. So they are here in England… surviving.

Becca Tobin from LadyGang joins Stassi as they plan their upcoming dream beach vacay at Ladyworld —despite the fact that Stassi hates sand and Becca thinks holidays are wildly overrated. Christmas? Too much. Birthdays? Too stressful. Hosting parties? Hard pass. The two bond over their shared love of low expectations, laugh about lavish kids’ birthdays, and agree that Elf on the Shelf is a parenting scam. Becca spills on Austin’s $12K light displays, Stassi defends her Christmas tree obsession, and somehow it all makes sense. They also get real about social media boundaries, mom guilt, and why sometimes the quietest days are the most joyful.
