After a long holiday break, Chelsea and Becca are back and catching up on everything from the haunting Housemaid movie twist and Sydney Sweeney’s performance to the latest binge-worthy shows like Landman, Stranger Things, and The Way Home. They dive into Hollywood drama with the alleged “Mean Girls” mom club, reality-TV updates from Sister Wives, MomTok, and Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, and even tackle darker true-crime and political headlines—from shocking abuse cases to international power plays. It’s a wide-ranging, unfiltered chat that feels exactly like two friends trying to make sense of the world after the holidays.

In this episode of The Surprise Podcast, hosts Chelsea and Becka sit down with Kathy Schroeder, the creator behind Cache Valley Buzz, a popular local social media platform highlighting events, businesses, and community stories throughout Cache Valley. Kathy shares her deep roots in the valley, growing up in Hyrum as a self-described “national park kid,” and how leaving—and eventually returning—helped her fully appreciate the community she now promotes.

Kathy walks listeners through her journey from theater and education to motherhood, candidly discussing postpartum depression, identity shifts, and the long-term guilt many mothers carry—along with a powerful realization that she was a better mom than she ever gave herself credit for. She also reflects on marriage, raising three children, and approaching the empty-nester phase of life.

The conversation dives into the origin and growth of Cache Valley Buzz, including how Kathy turned a passion project into a business through brand partnerships, event promotion, and community storytelling. She explains her weekly event rundowns, love for nostalgic local history, and fascination with Cache Valley’s haunted lore—including interviews tied to the nunnery in Logan Canyon and well-known local ghost stories.

Listeners also get a glimpse into Kathy’s personal interests, from comedy and true crime to hiking, travel, and big future goals—both professionally and personally. The episode wraps with Kathy sharing her vision for expanding Cache Valley Buzz and continuing to celebrate the place she deeply loves.

This week on You’d Be Surprised, Becca and Chelsie dive into an emotional Dancing With the Stars Dedication Night — from Andy’s sweet salsa with his daughter to Dylan’s standout contemporary performance. We break down the highs, the scores, and the slightly awkward additional dancers. Then Chelsie gives a quick recap of the latest Sister Wives drama — tornado detours, pregnancy announcements, and questionable real estate choices. Plus, we rapid-fire through some wild pop culture moments: MomTok feuds, Kim K’s new “bush thong,” a jaw-dropping jail pregnancy story, Lagoon’s boozy glow-up, and a car thief with surprisingly strong parenting opinions. Buckle up — it’s a fun one.
