On Speed-Round Sunday, we share a mini episode from our past for your weekend listening pleasure.

Today's question asks about how much we can bear to pay for hair cutting (and styling and coloring and what-all). Looking at the pictures on our homepage, perhaps you can guess who among us cuts her own hair in order to avoid the $20 fee at the cheapest haircut place. Do you pay big bucks or pinch pennies when it comes to haircuts?

On Second-Listen Saturday, we share some fun moments from past episodes for your weekend listening pleasure.

When one loving parent thinks that gentle teasing is the best way to help a child get used to the way others may joke around, and the other loving parent knows that even gentle teasing is unappreciated by said child and should be cut out immediately, you wind up with escalating tension, and who needs another source of that?

On this week’s Roundabout Roundup: Nicole found a smelly-dog solution in Wahl Deodorizing and Refreshing Pet Deodorant, Catherine is stockpiling a lifetime supply of Plackers flossers, and Terri's finding comfort in Luden's Wild Cherry cough drops.

Thanks as always to Jon Morin for our fun in-and-out music, which you hear on every episode.

A tweet from @jdesmondharris on weird little things we just can't manage to do got us obsessing about our own life skill failings, from legitimate flossing to whistling to following a recipe. What can you just not​ do?

You know all those annoying life admin tasks you have to do, like paying bills, filling out forms, and doing your taxes? We're ready to handle them book-club style, with friends, coffee (or wine, pick your poison), and commiseration. Except Nicole. She's not a team player! Mentioned: Young House Love Has a Podcast, NPR's LifeKit podcast, and Life Admin by Elizabeth Emens.

On our entertainment-themed Round 2 this week: On Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist ​("Zoey's Extraordinary Best Friend"), Zoey tries to untangle the whys and hows of her power, and then thinks better of it. This is a good strategy for the viewing audience too. Next week: “Zoey’s Extraordinary Boss."

Over in Neptune, California, Veronica Mars solves a case of credit card fraud in “Credit Where Credit’s Due,” featuring a (mercifully, one-time-only) appearance by Paris Hilton. Next week: "Meet John Smith."

Yes, we've heard the mantra about praising effort, not outcome, and we get why it's important. But we still think there's a time and a place for a good old "Way to go!"

On Speed-Round Sunday, we share a mini episode from our past for your weekend listening pleasure.

​Continuing our grooming theme from last week, we look at shampoos and wonder how much is appropriate to spend. Our preferences range from pricey salon selections to the bottom of the supermarket barrel. How much do you spend on shampoo? 

On Second-Listen Saturday, we share some fun moments from past episodes for your weekend listening pleasure.

Your kid made the team—hooray! Your family is putting loads of money and time into making your athlete successful—yay! go! And then the coach bullies your child in a way you wouldn't tolerate from any other human on the planet. Do you quietly take one for the team? Or do you become That Parent who people will later say ruined it for everyone?

On this week’s Roundabout Roundup: Since it's Valentine's Day, check out Terri's Love Notes for Special Parents. Nicole's loving the Instagram account Pups of UPS, and Catherine recommends the lovely movie The Farewell.
