This week on Canal Confessions, we start with the New York Times question that had us all stumped, then spiral into the kind of tangents that make this show what it is.

First up: if you could have any skill, what would it be? One of us is fully committed to teleportation (no more commutes, no more excuses for being late).

Then the confessions come out. Alex reveals the full extent of an HGTV obsession, including strong opinions on renovation reveals and how many episodes is too many in one sitting. Shazia counters with her devotion to the Jack Hanna show and what makes it so re-watchable.

From there we wander into green-thumb territory. Who can keep a plant alive, who is a known houseplant hazard, and whose succulent has somehow survived despite total neglect? We wrap up with stories about our weirdest coworkers and the office moments we still can’t explain. Laughter happens early and often.

This week on Canal Confessions, Shazia and Alex take a cozy stroll down memory lane, with a few detours into the kitchen and out to sea.

We start by finally addressing how Shazia has been pronouncing "Socrates." Was it a bold creative choice? A happy accident? We'll let you decide, and Shazia is bracing herself for the verdict.

Then we head back in time for our favorite high school and elementary school memories. These are the little moments that still make us smile, and we're pretty sure you'll recognize a few from your own school days.

Next, it's off to Central Park, where we look back on our NYC photoshoots together. The park was gorgeous, the vibes were immaculate, and we looked great in those pics. No notes.

Then comes the baking segment! Alex shares the story behind her babka, and Shazia reveals the Italian butter cookies she makes with her husband. Expect flour on the counter, taste-testing "for quality control," and zero leftovers.

We wrap up with Shazia's whale watching boat tour, where she spotted dolphins and is still talking about it.

Warm, silly, and sweet in all the right ways, this one is best enjoyed with a slice of babka and a butter cookie in hand.

In this week's episode of Canal Confessions, Alex and Shazia kick things off with a big, heartfelt question from the NYT's list of 36 questions: Question 10, would you change anything about the way you were raised? Spoiler: neither of them would. They share what they're grateful for and what shaped them into who they are today.

Then things get a little more fun as they air their pet peeves. Alex can't stand dishes left in the sink, and Shazia has no patience for rude people. They both agree that people blasting videos on their phones in public places are the worst. Slow walkers also get a moment in the spotlight.

They wrap up with their go-to comfort foods: Alex's beloved Chinese restaurant and the Thai spot that Shazia and her husband can't stop going back to. Grab a snack, settle in, and join the chat.
