Description

Join Katie and Chrissy as they dive deep into America's second-most consumed beverage - coffee! In this candid conversation, the cousins share their personal coffee origin stories, from Chrissy's desperate seventh-grade all-nighter to Katie's college social awakening with "fufu drinks."

In this episode, you'll discover:

• How coffee actually works in your brain (hint: it's not giving you energy the way you think)
• The surprising connection between mouth breathing and cavities in this week's "Random Revelations"
• Why coffee releases dopamine and creates those cozy social moments we crave
• The hidden toxins in conventional coffee and how to choose better brands
• The fascinating world of mushroom coffee alternatives
• How stress impacts your health more than most dietary choices
