Amanda and Steve are back and Team USA just gave us something to talk about! 🇺🇸🏒 In this episode, we’re celebrating Team USA’s hockey team bringing home Olympic gold at the Olympic Games — and naturally spiraling from there. We weren’t prepared for this episode, can you tell? Lol Because nothing says elite athleticism like… perfect veneers? We get into why so many hockey players end up with the most beautiful teeth after getting them knocked out on the ice. Amanda shares she is going for her first-ever colonoscopy (yes, we go there) — send thoughts, prayers, and good vibes. We will be accepting moral support. We also unpack: 📺 The finale of Tell Me Lies on Netflix, because WHY were there so many loose ends? 💘 Updating: If you’re single and extroverted, we HIGHLY recommend you go to one of their tours (respectfully… but aggressively). Plus, we dive into all things Bravo (obviously), along with our usual unfiltered chaos, hot takes, and late-night-conversation energy you didn’t know you needed.

Amanda and Steve are back for Season 3, Episode 1, and they’re kicking off the new year burnt out, opinionated, and ready to spiral.From realistic New Year’s resolutions to spiraling into questions no one asked for, this episode feels like a late-night conversation with yourself that somehow makes total sense.In this episode: 👀 Is it weird when someone watches your stories immediately every time? 📍 Should couples share their location? 🌴 The Top 5 Happiest States in America 💍 Where people are getting married the oldest vs. youngestPlus, rapid-fire debates you’ll absolutely have opinions on: - Is peace more important than passion? - Ghosted or breadcrumbed — which hurts worse? - Is jealousy a red flag… or just being human? - Fight it out now or take space and revisit later? - Is being “too much” actually just being with the wrong person?This episode is honest, chaotic, thoughtful, and painfully relatable.Got a story, a dilemma, or a question you want dissected on the next episode? 💌 DM @beunapologeticallymyself or email theumpod@gmail.comFor collabs or business inquiries: amandateam@bcreativebranding.com🎧 LISTEN on Spotify + Apple 📺 WATCH monthly episodes on YouTube 💬 COMMENT the topic that hit a little too close to home ❤️ LIKE if you’re burnt out but still doing the most 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for honesty, humor, and unapologetic chaosStay bold.

Amanda and Steve are back with Episode 7 — and let’s just say this one’s a rollercoaster. 🎢 First up: Steve’s secret talent has officially been exposed. Turns out, he can actually write lyrics… and his brand-new single “Not Him” by S. Lyric is out now on iTunes. Who saw this coming? (Not us.) Then, we’re switching gears to reality TV chaos with Dancing with the Stars Season 34. We’re breaking down the celebrity lineup, giving our brutally honest takes, and maybe even making a few bold predictions. 👀 From there, it’s time to talk group chats — because apparently there are 14 official etiquette rules for group texting you should follow (shoutout to Reader’s Digest for calling us all out). We’ll let you know which ones we agree with, which ones we’re guilty of breaking, and who in our lives needs this list immediately. Current events are on the table, too. We unpack the latest about Sydney Sweeney’s dating life, and dive into the bizarre trend of billionaires inviting the entire planet to their weddings. Like… is this an actual thing now? Finally, we close out the episode in the most Carluccio way possible: phoning a friend. And not just any friend — Amanda’s dad, Gary. We hit him with a million-dollar question, and let’s just say his answer is peak dad energy. From music drops to celeb gossip, group text etiquette, and a little Carluccio family cameo, Episode 7 is packed with everything you didn’t know you needed.

This month, Amanda and Steve are back — and Episode 6 is serving pure chaos with a side of tea. We kick things off with a recap of the NYC premiere of The Home starring Pete Davidson — and our unexpected (and hilarious) encounter with Impractical Joker’s Q. Then, Amanda shares how she got scammed trying to order Labubus (spoiler: it’s as bad as it sounds). Next, we dive into the Netflix docuseries Amy Bradley is Missing and the jaw-dropping scandal that went down at the Coldplay concert (IYKYK). 👀 From there, we head into our unhinged advice column to answer one of the most debated dating questions: How many dates should you wait to have sex? Studies say the longer you wait, the better your long-term relationship will be…but do we agree? From celeb encounters to true-crime deep dives, plus unfiltered takes on dating, sex, and relationships — this episode has a little bit of everything!

Things are a little different this week — the tables have turned and Amanda is in the hot seat! Steve takes over the mic and interviews Amanda on all things social media: how she got started, whether she’s ever turned down a brand deal that didn’t align with her or her audience, what’s next for her, and everything in between. If you’ve ever considered diving into the world of social media or just want an inside look, this episode is a must-listen. Amanda shares insights, tips, and of course, keeps it real. They also dive into some hot takes — including Amanda’s very unpopular opinion: she hates weddings (yes, you read that right). And as always, they wrap it up with the unhinged advice segment, reading through listeners’ relationship dilemmas and giving their brutally honest takes.

In this episode, we’re recapping a very eventful bachelorette weekend in Paris — from sipping champagne in Champagne, France, to dining at the bougiest (and totally worth it) restaurant, Barrone. Of course, no girls’ trip is complete without a little drama, and it had us wondering… do guys go through this kind of chaos on group trips too? We’re also talking about the magic of pretty privilege at 30,000 feet — is it looks, energy, or both? Plus, tips on how to become that person who always gets the extra cookie or free drink on a flight. Then we dive into manifestation, the viral envelope challenge, and whether dreaming big is powerful or delusional. Things get real when Steve joins to answer the questions that keep women up at night: Why do guys ghost, breadcrumb, or suddenly want you back the second you move on? And finally, we read your unhinged advice submissions — situationships, mixed signals, and emotional rollercoasters — we’re breaking it all down with honesty and humor. If you’ve ever been confused by a text, tried to manifest your dream life (or ex), or questioned if a “good morning” text actually means something… this one’s for you.📩 Got a wild dating story?

Buckle up, babes—this episode of Unapologetically Myself is a full-on rollercoaster of reality TV delusions, hallway poop scandals, and dating truths. I brought back my BF Stefanos Vitirados (aka Steve) because y’all loved him last time, and trust—he brought the whiskey and the hot takes. First up: The April Fools prank of the century. We tricked my dad into thinking we got scouted for a reality show. Like, full-blown fake producer email, camera crew fantasy, the whole nine. The man is LIVING for it—planning his retirement, dreaming of $1M-per-episode deals, and texting my mom like he’s about to be on Bravo. And yes, we’re filming the whole thing for the real show: Crazy Carluccios. Stay tuned.Then… PoopGate 2025 hits. Our apartment hallway became a crime scene after a rogue dog dropped a steamer and didn’t clean it up. Now the building manager is accusing everyone on our floor. We know it wasn’t Luna (our massive German Shepherd), but there’s still paranoia. We're breaking down the poop logistics like we're on CSI: Dog Edition. It’s gross, it’s funny, it’s peak apartment living.Movie night recap: We hit the Hell of a Summer premiere—directed by Finn Wolfhard (yep, Stranger Things). This horror-comedy slasher was so good we’d watch it again. Huge props to Finn for making us laugh and scream, and yes, we walked the black carpet pretending to be celebs.Now let’s talk relationship pressure. People are out here in our comments DEMANDING a proposal like they’re part of the wedding planning committee. Steve claps back, we talk timelines, and we both agree: Stop rushing people into life milestones. It’s not 1953. We just moved in together—let us vibe.White Lotus S3? We haven't watched the finale yet, but so far nothing has happened. No murder, no scandal—just a lot of fancy dinners and dramatic staring. But shoutout to Victoria Ratliff who's serving Patricia-from-Southern-Charm energy. She’s the only reason we’re still tuned in.Netflix’s Adolescents = a must-watch. One-take episodes, insane acting, and real emotional gut punches. We talk about the heartbreaking moments, the insane talent of the young cast, and why it’s a show every parent should watch. Trust me, you’ll cry.Sydney Sweeney + Glenn Powell = Red Carpet Chemistry. We discuss Sydney’s recent breakup, rumors about Glenn, and how wild it must be to date an actor. Would Steve be cool watching me do a rom-com with a hot co-star? LOL, hard no.This episode is for anyone who’s ever:● Been pressured to get engaged by nosy aunties or TikTok trolls● Had to defend their dog’s honor in an apartment scandal● Got ghosted by someone who invited them to Paris on the first date● Is OVER modern dating nonsense and just wants honesty, laughter, and some damn guacamole📩 Got a wild dating story?

Hey babes! This episode is a wild one, so grab your iced coffee and get comfy because I’ve got my boyfriend, Stephanos Vitoratos — aka Steve, aka the guy who somehow puts up with my chaos — in the studio with me. We’re back with season 2, recording from the new and improved Flexwork Studios, so you know I had to kick things off with a bang.We’re spilling all the tea — and trust me, it’s scalding. From Bravo drama to my embarrassing viral MooMoo moment (yes, I still wear it — Steve’s just salty about it), we’re covering it all. Steve’s a total Bravo guy — I know, shocking — so we’re diving deep into Vanderpump Rules, Summer House, and all the latest reality TV mess. We get into: · Carl and Lindsay’s awkward “We’re broken up but still stuck in the same house” vibe · Paige and Craig’s breakup — did anyone not see that coming? · That new guy who casually dropped “I was at a sex party” like it was no big deal · Plus, my take on Lindsay’s oversized sonogram announcement (love her & I would do the same…) Oh, and if you thought that was messy, wait until I spill the most chaotic dating story of my life. Let’s just say it involves my ex, a hospital stay, and a very shady nurse. You seriously can’t make this stuff up. We also answer some spicy questions from you guys, like: · Do men and women really have different roles in relationships? · Is it okay to keep some secrets from your partner? · How big of a rock would Steve buy me? (Plot twist: I have thoughts.) · Plus, Steve gets all finance bro and drops some seriously good money tips — and honestly, he's kinda spitting facts. If you’re out here trying to budget like an adult (ugh), Steve’s got you covered. He breaks down: · Why “get rich quick” vibes are a total scam · Why you need to chill with the crypto gambling and focus on actual investing· How playing the long game with your money is where it’s at · Why chasing clout with expensive cars or designer bags just isn’t it Basically, he's the guy you want in your corner when you're trying to avoid living off ramen by the end of the month. Of course, we couldn’t keep things serious for too long. We get into our relationship drama — like the time Steve refused to let me sleep over for months (rude) — and why our apartment is now covered in German Shepherd hair and random strands of my hair that somehow end up everywhere. Seriously, how does my hair travel like that? We also break down the new Hulu show Paradise, where people escape the end of the world by living in some creepy underground dome. Spoiler alert: I’d rather go down with the world than survive in a place with no TikTok and no iced coffee. Hard pass.This episode is a whole vibe — Bravo hot takes, messy relationship moments, finance tips (that might actually help you get your life together), and lots of laughs. So grab your snacks, cozy up, and hang out with us. If you want more chaos in your life, you can follow me on Instagram at @amanda_carluccio & TikTok at @amanda_carluccio.
