How do Quint and Allie introduce the 'Back to the Basics' theme for 2026?
Hey, this is Allie, and thanks for listening to the show. Give us a five-star review where you listen and share this episode with someone who might need to hear it. Now, enjoy the show. Welcome back.
Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to another edition of DIY Money.
DIY Money. We're shaking a Howard. 2026. 2026. That's crazy.
Very excited about the new year. Lots of exciting things going on. By the way, if you haven't checked us out on social at DIY Money Podcast, we are blowing up.
I have something to say to you about that.
Let's talk about it.
Have I ever told you about Squash the Beef?
No.
I don't know what that means.
I have a friend and he used to jokingly sit down two people and he would say, OK, squash the beef as if they both had dramatic beef. And then inevitably they would come up with something to argue about. Here's my squash the beef for you. Where's the beef? let's do it why in the world did you post the picture from dinner where it looks like my arm is a selfie stick length and it looked like i had six like because it's amazing rolls it's like the worst picture i've ever seen the lighting was bad because i'm not one of those people listen listen a howard it looks so bad quinn okay that's now out on the interweb i smell a lawsuit
If you haven't seen what she's talking about, again, on Instagram, we put up a photo. We had a little powwow session of what 2026 was going to look like. We got together, Logan A. Howard and myself, and enjoyed a little Texas Roadhouse. And then we took the worst selfie I've ever seen. Well, it said, hey, put it on .5 like the kids, and she did. And then she decided to stick her arm out to the next table.
Isn't that what you're supposed to do?
I think your finger went in the guy's ear.
Oh, my gosh.
It was a little weird.
How do you do .5?
I don't know. I just do .5, and I hold it.
Well, next time you're taking it.
Anyways, it's a great photo. I think it's great, but we are real people. It's honest. And sometimes we do strange things. And you know what? I'm sure there's going to be times I do something strange and you're going to be like, oh. I'm going to post it on the Instagram. I will say I was listening to a podcast. You're like, well, it's because he's bald. That's true. And then you were like, well, maybe people don't know he's bald. I think people know I'm bald.
Well, now that we're lighting up the socials.
And it's now 65 degrees in here and you still have a jacket on. And it's 51 out. My hands are ice cold. Oh, my gosh.
Is it actually? It says 65.
There's an element of A. Howard. My mind explodes sometimes when I talk to you because on one hand, you're like, I'm going camping. We're going out and sleeping in the tents. And it's sub 40 out and it's purple negative. And then I'm like, and you're like, but I'm cold. It's 65 and I'm cold. And I'm tired. Oh, come on, A-Hour 2026. All right, listen. And now we've squashed the beef. All right, beef is squashed. We won't do that photo again. But seriously, you can check us out on all the things. We even have a TikTok. DIY Money Podcast, or I think it's just DIY Money. Anyway, search DIY Money on TikTok or on Instagram, YouTube Shorts. What? That's awesome. I don't even know what that means. Well, I mean, you put a video out, and it's so cool, and I get it now why all the kids are like, oh, look at me, look at me, because it's pretty cool.
I hit refresh, and it's like, bam, 500 people saw this. Now they're watching for negative .05 seconds, but still, it's pretty awesome. And also, we've got blog content. So if you can't tell, in 2026, we circled the wagons after, my goodness, what is this now, eight years of a great foundation?
Why are the hosts focusing on expanding DIY Money across social and merch channels?
And we said, okay, how can we deliver more value to you, the listener? And so we're talking the blog. We're talking the Instagram. We're talking the newsletter, the swag on the website. What the?
Okay, the swag is actually happening. The swag has happened. I know we've said that for years. So you can go to our website. You can find it hyperlinked. Or go on Amazon, DIY Money Merch. DIY Money Merch.
