Kitchen Catchups

Tina Yong

Kitchen Catchups is all about real conversations, real food, and a pinch of chaos. Every episode, we'll cook, eat, and chat about life, from friendships and relationships to career, travel, behind the scenes stories, and everything in between. So grab a snack, get comfortable, and think of it as catching up with a friend in the kitchen over good food and honest conversations.

    I Married My One Night Stand… Now We Have 2 Kids 😂

    Welcome back to Kitchen Catchups ☕️🍴 Today I’m joined by my husband, Alfred! We’re going all the way back to how we first met, what dating was like in the early days, getting married, working together, becoming parents and what marriage actually looks like after kids. We chat about how our relationship has changed over the years, navigating parenthood together, balancing work and family life, the things we’ve learned about each other since getting married and all the little behind-the-scenes moments you don’t usually see online. Basically, this is a very overdue husband-and-wife catch-up about love, marriage, work, parenthood and everything that happens in between.

    My Employee Knows WAY Too Much About Me… 😭

    Welcome back to Kitchen Catchups ☕️🍴 Today I’m joined by Zenn, aka my other brain cell, longtime friend, editor, travel buddy and accidental Kitchen Chaos co-star 😂 We’ve known each other since 2017, so naturally… she knows WAY too much about me. We’re going back to how we first met, what it’s really been like working together for 8 years, how Zenn somehow became part of my YouTube videos, the most unhinged things she’s witnessed behind the scenes, dating apps, stalking your date before meeting them, awkward influencer events, motherhood, friendship and how much we’ve both changed over the years. Basically, this is one very overdue catch-up with someone who has genuinely seen me through some of the biggest chapters of my life.

    Let’s Catch Up… Finally Sharing the Stuff I Usually Cut Out

    Welcome to the very first episode of Kitchen Catchups 🥟🤍 This is a new series where I cook, chat and share the things that normally get cut out of my videos. Think less polished, more personal, and probably a little too much oversharing 😂 In this episode, we’re making dumplings while catching up on life, motherhood, relationships and how much my life has changed over the years. I talk about a psychic reading that strangely predicted my future, why I once wasn’t sure I even wanted kids, my relationship with Alfred, my thoughts on soulmates, getting older, and why I wanted to create this series in the first place. Basically, it’s the kind of conversation you’d have with a friend in the kitchen while making dinner. I hope Kitchen Catchups can be a little space where we can talk about life beyond beauty and the more curated stuff you usually see online. Let me know what you think of the first episode and what you want us to chat about next! 🤍 CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome to Kitchen Catchups 01:26 Making Dumplings + Why I Started Cooking Online 04:27 The Psychic Reading That Predicted My Future 06:13 I Wasn’t Sure I Wanted Kids 07:38 “Why Are You With Alfred?” + My Thoughts on Soulmates 08:38 Turning 36 + How I Feel About Getting Older 09:40 What You Can Expect From Kitchen Catchups 11:30 I’m the Alpha in My Marriage 😂 12:34 How Alfred Changed Me 13:43 My Wild 20s vs My Life Now #KitchenCatchups #TinaYong #Podcast
