Emily to Gremily

A stranger is yelling in the grocery store. Someone in line cannot afford their total. You spot food in someone’s teeth and suddenly you are trapped in a tiny social moral crisis. We take your WWGD submissions and answer them the way we actually live, with real boundaries, real opinions, and zero interest in playing perfect. Then we get into the heavier stuff: dating red flags and relationship tru...

Ever had a night out turn into a legend you can’t believe is yours? We’re back from a two-week break and diving straight into pure Gremlin energy: five listener stories that ricochet from accidental break-ins to disastrous dates, unhinged dinner parties, and an unforgettable meet-cute born from tears. First, a late-night hookup goes off the rails when identical condo doors and moonlight confusion...

A same-day edit, a sparkling water that lied to my eyes, and a studio torn apart, somehow it all adds up to one of our most honest rides yet. I pull back the curtain on my DIY workflow, sprinting from record to release while my gear migrates left and my timer disappears. Then we pivot into Lunar New Year rituals: deep-cleaning, no knives, soup prepped ahead, and the hair rule that put my much-need...

Ever had a night so chaotic it turned into your favorite story? We kick off with two Gremlin Stories that prove messy moments can rewrite your life. First up: a listener’s karaoke-fueled meet-cute that starts with couch naps and neighbor complaints and ends as a wedding dance to Don’t Stop Believin’. It’s goofy, tender, and exactly the kind of imperfect joy that keeps us singing along. Then we piv...

A tech spiral, a cherry Alani in a martini glass, and one hard pivot into the stories that make your pulse quicken. After losing days of footage and wrestling with a stubborn hard drive, we lean into a theme that kept surfacing all week: control what you can, and listen when your body says run. That thread connects every beat here, from a late-night parking lot encounter paid in “winning lottery t...

A voice outside calls your name with your mother’s tone, except she’s gone. That’s the chill that anchors this spooky, story-driven episode where we gather listener tales of ghosts, mimics, and the uncanny details that make hair stand up: jasmine perfume before a phone call, a window that lowers itself without wind, footsteps by the glass, and a 3 a.m. shadow that sprints from the corner to the be...

A burnt tongue, Nana’s mug, and a late start to 75 Hard set the tone for a raw, honest ride that moves from discipline to empathy to unflinching truth. I share why I pushed my kickoff a few days, the uphill walk that humbled me on the way to Trader Joe’s, and how filming daily vlogs while running this show is its own endurance sport. No cocktails for a while, just tea, home-cooked meals, water by...

A spilled pear martini, a rebellious mic, and a promise to do hard things anyway. That’s where we start before leaning into wins that feel personal: a year-end wrap that shows this scrappy show now streams across 17 countries and 131 cities. Those analytics aren’t vanity, they’re fuel, and they set the tone for a bigger commitment: a tailored 75 Hard that prioritizes discipline without denying rea...

Ready to turn page one of 2026 with a little sparkle and a lot of honesty? I’m clinking Martinelli’s and mapping out what a realistic reset looks like: maybe Dry January, maybe a customized 75 Hard, definitely not perfection theater. I share why I started Emily to Gremily, how our three segments, Stories, Guidance, and Gossip, create a safe, funny, and unfiltered space for messy moments, hard ques...

The days between Christmas and New Year’s turn hazy, so we leaned into the coziness, poured some sparkling cider, and told the truth about a wild, formative year. We start with circle backs—fixing a TV rec after a focused rewatch of Welcome to Derry, celebrating a listener’s holiday engagement, and unpacking a rideshare scare that raised real questions about safety, intuition, and how women naviga...

A tart holiday margarita set the tone, but the real kick comes from candor: a chaotic building alarm test, an unplanned two-week break, and a reset that chooses grace over guilt. From there, we tap into the heart of this show, community, curiosity, and the courage to say the quiet part out loud. We start with your requests: more true crime, more ghost stories, and a promise to build an episode aro...

A roof full of hammering, a boyfriend guest segment derailed, and a midnight deadline set the scene for one of our most honest solos yet. I hit record anyway and invite you into the real behind-the-scenes: holiday overwhelm, schedule triage, and why staying consistent sometimes means embracing the mess. We start with two listener Gremlin stories that prove comedy is just catastrophe plus timing. R...

WARNING: This episode is unhinged as we were extremely hungover and decided to rally. Hungover honesty meets producer mode, and the contrast is the point. We open with tequila regret and bedhead confessions, then flip the switch into how we’re attempting to level up the show. It’s the unsexy backbone of a creative project, but it becomes the reason the rest of the chaos can be funny instead of fat...

A cherry-pink Alani over ice, a surge of new listeners, and a packed inbox set the stage for a quick-hit solo that leans hard into community and confession. We open by inviting you to steer the show, share guest ideas, dream professions to feature, or pitch yourself, then pivot into a themed batch of Gremlin stories where sex meets slapstick and everyone survives with a laugh. The first tale turns...

Ever felt your sanity shrink when a well‑meaning relative moves down the street, or your confidence dip after every chat with a “friend” who treats life like a leaderboard? This solo Gremlin Guidance goes straight at the stuff that steals peace: boundary‑setting with family, quiet red flags in new relationships, slippery mood spirals, and the real‑world skills that make your first place feel like...

Vodka spills, Mean Girls ears, and a second attempt that’s somehow even funnier than the first, we kick off Halloween with chaotic honesty and a lot of glitter. After a whirlwind few days of concerts, bed-rot recovery, and a Pearl shoutout, we dive straight into the strangest ride of the week: a first-ever trip in a Waymo. Think thrill ride meets tech demo, complete with the viral clips we can’t s...

A glass of white wine and a slightly raspy voice set the stage for a fast, funny, and surprisingly tender ride through modern dating’s strangest corners, and the boundaries that keep us sane. We field a respectful foot-fetish curveball, revisit a risky MySpace-era meetup, and pull apart the difference between sweet attention and full-blown love bombing. I share candid takes on how to respond when...

A pumpkin-iced coffee, a pile of YouTube ghost stories, and one spectacularly botched flirt, perfect ingredients to dig into what actually scares us. We start light and slide into the places fear hides in plain sight: backyards that vanish into darkness, sliding glass doors that turn you into a lit-up target, and the LA myth that won’t die, the Culver City “Entity” lot. From Midwest pillowcase tri...

A martini, a mental reset, and a mi, today’s solo ride goes from vulnerable to jaw‑dropping fast. I open up about taking a week off to protect quality and sanity, then jump straight into a listener confession that still makes me wince: why cheat at all? I share the messy truth from my past, why “perfect on paper” can still feel wrong, and the cleanest way to leave when your heart’s already halfway...

The people we know may not be who they seem. That's the haunting message at the heart of this special true crime episode featuring listener-submitted stories about encounters with murderers who walked among them. After kicking things off with a simple vodka martini, I share my fascination with true crime content before diving into the chilling submissions you've sent in. Unlike famous ca...
