Comment below!We also get into Emma Chamberlain's line with West Elm, along with answering a listener call-in about designing her dorm (or any small, renter-friendly space) with character.

Kate opens up about what it’s like being a highly sensitive person, while Joey cannot wrap his head around why someone hasn’t invented a female urinal to fix long bathroom lines.We also give a shoutout to the Staples Baddie for fully embodying the creative weirdo spirit, and on our spring break trip, Joey decides to take Tess’s love life into his own hands—turning the podcast into a search for eligible bachelors to call in. 📞 1-844-RUG-CHATLadies—be honest… would you try Joey’s no-stall bathroom design? 👀 If you liked this episode please follow and rate it 5 stars.

    Getting Real about our Renovationship and Pinterest Death Spirals
    2026/03/31
    This week we’re sharing what we’ve learned the hard way from our four-year renovationship with our dream home (that Joey admits he might have ruined)… including what we’ve learned about when DIYing makes sense vs when it’s worth calling in the pros. Plus we’re diving into matrescence—the wild identity shift that comes with becoming a parent—along with brand bibles and our packing habits. Talk Dirty with Tess gets unexpectedly wholesome as we dive into our love for the Plated Prisonerseries—and the best advice Kate’s ever given her.

  • We’re YouTubers... But Raising Screen-Free Kids & Why Getting Better Feels Like Failing

    We’re YouTubers... But Raising Screen-Free Kids & Why Getting Better Feels Like Failing
    2026/03/24
    This week, we’re talking about what it means to be YouTubers raising kids in a screen-free home, the tensions of working online while limiting screens offline, and how we try to stay on the creating-not-consuming side of technology. Plus, a very special guest (MY DAD) with firsthand experience raising a screen-free kid (ME!!) weighs in. We also get into creative resilience - why getting better can sometimes feel like failing, and why pushing through that feeling matters if you want to make anything meaningful over time. Along the way, we question the shift away from a 13-month calendar, talk periods, share a few DIY ways to bring new life to the art you already own, and ask one very important question: do men actually spend more time on the toilet?

  • Kate's Interior Design Secret, Joey's Girl-Dad CRISIS & Why we're DONE People-Pleasing

    Kate's Interior Design Secret, Joey's Girl-Dad CRISIS & Why we're DONE People-Pleasing
    2026/03/10
    This week, Joey had a full girl-dad existential spiral after realizing he can’t actually protect our daughter from the male gaze, which turned into a larger parenting conversation about raising our kids to create systemic change. We also answer a listener question about Kate’s uncanny ability to design spaces that feel perfectly personal: design intuition, empathy, or maybe some inherited psychic abilities. Plus, we dive into the Fourth Wing series and other romantasy books Joey has read, and Kate shares the moment she channeled some serious Fire Horse energy to confront someone who crossed a boundary. Leave us a comment — yay or nay on ponytails for men? Give us a call and tell us what’s got you spiraling — whether it’s a question for us or something that's on your mind. 📞 1-844-RUG-CHAT If you like this podcast, it would mean the world to us if you gave it 5 stars: https://bit.ly/rugcuddleOfficial instagram of the pod: https://www.instagram.com/rugcuddleWatch Rug Cuddle (With Us) on YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@MrKateFollow Kate: https://www.instagram.com/mrkateFollow Joey: https://www.instagram.com/joeyzehr Learn more about your ad choices.

  • The Early YouTube Days & Tess Was Engaged?

    The Early YouTube Days & Tess Was Engaged?
    2026/03/03
    This week, we revisit the decisions that changed everything — from starting a YouTube channel when no one took it seriously to Tess walking away from her engagement (3 rings later!?) We unpack what sixteen years online has really meant: growing older on camera, deciding how much of our lives (and our kids’ lives) to share, facing imposter syndrome, and pushing back against algorithms and AI with creativity and real community. We’re also officially over boring bathrooms — and yes, Joey grabbed an Amelia Bedelia boxed set as his weapon of choice.
