We Ride at Dawn (ish)

We played Would You Rather and there is no coming back from some of these answers. A Moon flight vs. White House residency, loving what you’re great at vs. being great at what you love, Aliens vs. Zombies and then it gets unhinged in the best way. A few questions we genuinely could not finish answering out loud. There’s laughing so hard it turns into actual tears and Jessica may have blacked out. Camilla and Jessica did not hold back on this one.

Watch to see which questions broke us.

Jessica's out, so Camilla brings her other, other half, husband Matt, for a spooky new spinoff called We Ride at Midnight(ish). First up is the real horror story of their family vacation to Hawaii, from a household-wide "shut up" ban gone wrong to Matt's relentless photo-taking, a stubbed toe ER visit, and the movie theater family from hell. Then things get genuinely eerie as Camilla unloads her research on alien conspiracy theories. What do aliens and Ancestry.com have in common? And a breakdown of the FOUR reported alien species. Equal parts marriage therapy, travel horror story, and UFO deep-dive, this one has it all.

Jessica shares the emotional (and logistical) rescue mission that brought her homesick camper home early. Camilla admits she is not opposed to running a background check before a sleepover. Together, they swap camp horror stories — theirs and their kids’ — unexpected triumphs, day-one allergy disasters, British camp culture (spoiler: not much canoeing), and the surprising Hollywood connection hiding in Jessica’s own theater camp days.

If you’ve ever put name tags on 152 items (socks need to be tagged individually, obvi), cried in the camp parking lot, or wondered whether you’re raising a resilient kid or just funding a bug bite habit, this one’s for you. Campers, parents — send us your stories.

54% of Americans drank less alcohol in 2025 — the steepest drop ever recorded — and Jess and Camilla have thoughts. They get into the “sober curious” movement, whether GLP-1s are quietly killing happy hour, and why Gen Z skipped the drinking-culture memo entirely. Camilla spills on her 30 days alcohol-free (spoiler: her jawline has opinions), Jess shares that her Dry January pushed it’s way past the first month of the year, and then it somehow it all spirals into a full-blown mahjong obsession. Hangxiety, red carpet horror stories, and a woman named Beth who may be quietly teaching all of Los Angeles to play — this one has range.
