KP Parker and Sophia Wilson Pelton welcome back Deanna Ortiz for a cozy pop-culture slumber party.


What You'll Hear:


Crushes & Mutes: Deanna brings her signature segment to The Nightly, sharing what she’s loving lately — from Chicago’s first hints of spring to the quiet romance of a neighborhood coffee shop. Plus, the group debates the universal urge to mute cleaning your apartment… at least temporarily.


Craft Corner: A conversation about cozy hobbies spins into crocheting, knitting attempts, and the surprisingly ambitious idea of making your own clothes from scratch — including one woman’s year-long quest to grow flax and weave a dress.


Impulse Buys & Big Tattoos: The crew compares notes on TikTok shop purchases, vacuum theories, and the very real itch to book a tattoo appointment immediately. Sometimes the math of “cost per wear” is all the justification you need.
