When our kids were small, we couldn't wait to get beyond hours-long bedtime routines and driving them all over the place. But now, we kinda miss those times—and enjoy revisiting them once in a while.
On today's episode, we complain about the division of household labor that puts us squarely in charge of all telephone transactions. Why, oh why, can't anyone else in our house ever place a call?
On our entertainment-themed Round 2 this week: After watching "Patty," the penultimate episode of The Good Place, Terri's hoping for one more holy-mother-forking-shirtballs twist to make the show work for her. Next week: "Whenever You're Ready."
On The West Wing, we said goodbye to all our favorites as the Bartlet administration headed off into the sunset on "Tomorrow," the series finale. But we're not quite done with this show. Next week, we'll share our final thoughts on the series and the podcast that inspired us to watch it, the West Wing Weekly.
We talk about ourselves and our families a lot on this podcast. But off the air, we're talking about other families we encounter out in the wild. Mentioned: Ellen Seidman's blog, Love That Max.
On Speed-Round Sunday, we share a mini episode from our past for your weekend listening pleasure.
Earthquakes. Fires. Tornadoes. Floods. Hurricanes. Hurricane panics. We've seen 'em all, and in some cases bought the insurance. What is Mother Nature up to in your part of the world?
On Second-Listen Saturday, we share some fun moments from past episodes for your weekend listening pleasure.
A Washington Post article about the science of why your child is such an entitled brat got us talking about the ways our kids have come to expect a certain level of rewards, merchandise, and entertainment, and what we can do to get them to cut that out. (Mentioned: An earlier discussion of fancy underwear.) Want more? Listen to the rest of this October 2016 episode.
On this week’s Roundabout Roundup, Catherine is cautiously optimistic about air frying (in this Breville Smart Oven), and Terri is enjoying lemon cookie mini bars and iced cinnamon puffs from WW (formerly WeightWatchers). Continuing our food-and-drink theme, Nicole recommends Bolthouse smoothies for sneaky vegetable consumption.
Thanks as always to Jon Morin for our fun in-and-out music, which you hear on every episode.
Nicole had to deliver a birthday celebration to her away-at-college daughter, which got us obsessing about how we celebrate special days for special people in our lives, whether they are near or far.
Yes, we know kids should be involved in activities, but does it have to be so hard to make time for practices/games/meetings/events, and transport everyone to and fro? (And the parking. Oh, the parking!)
