Remi + Cal’s Life Changing News!!

Dear Media
About this episode

This week on Pretty Basic, Remi is joined by none other than Cal — and the two are finally dropping the HUGE NEWS they’ve been keeping a secret… and no, it’s not just that Remi is announcing her brand-new cookbook, Let’s Get Cooking! 🍳

For the first time ever on the podcast, they’re spilling a major secret they’ve been hiding for months. Plus, Cal is back for round two of your juiciest Q’s for Men (you guys loved the first one!) — from how he knew he was ready to propose, to the age-old mystery of why guys string girls along, to whether it’s actually possible to be just friends with a guy, and… are guys just bad texters? 👀
