Everything’s Perfect… Except These Trends

Everything is Perfect is back with hosts Autumn Calabrese and Donald Stamper, diving into today's most on-trend topics—from fashion faux pas to TikTok-worthy taste tests. This episode serves up an entertaining and refreshingly honest conversation on on-trend items like matcha lattes, crumble cookies, Crocs, and even controversial low-rise jeans. It's a wild ride through what's trending—and what the hosts think should be left behind.Autumn kicks off the episode with a hilarious yet maddening story about being charged $20,000 by her dad’s former apartment complex and the chaos of getting gym floors installed. It’s the kind of real-life nightmare many can relate to. Meanwhile, Donald shares his shocking survival story of attending Korean BBQ as a newly flexible ex-vegan—and yes, the meat sweats are real.But the main dish here is trends. The duo dissect them with wit, warmth, and a dash of tough love. Is matcha actually worth it, or just bitter green water? (Spoiler: it’s all about the quality). Autumn schools the audience on the science behind developing taste and why your cheap matcha isn’t it.Next, crumble cookies are unboxed and reviewed on air. The verdict? Fab—with a sugar crash incoming. Then it’s on to fashion: Crocs, ballet flats, barrel jeans, and even “potato shoes” (hello, Birkenstocks) are all on the chopping block. Donald defends Crocs, while Autumn tries to make peace with ballet flats that won’t cooperate with her outfit.The hosts even reflect on past trends that make them cringe—like popped collars and “brick bangs.” They talk about timeless fashion, like Chuck Taylors and crisp white tees, and which items they’re glad are making a comeback (hello, the bob haircut). And yes, they deep-dive into wearables like the Oura Ring and whether health data is worth the Bluetooth brain fry.From AI-generated chocolate obsessions like Dubai Chocolate to overpriced rubber “bog bags,” no trend is safe. And they wrap with thoughtful takes on tracking health obsessively, how stress shows up on wearables, and why Autumn isn’t about that low-rise life anymore.Funny, fashionable, and full of real talk—this is your go-to episode for staying current without selling your soul. Whether you’re laughing over sugar crashes or taking notes on what not to wear, this is the ultimate guide to what’s hot (and not) right now.🎥 Watch on YouTube📩 Email us at: [email protected]🔔 Subscribe and Follow for weekly laughs and life chats
