Your Kids, Your Choices

3/31/2021

0 Comments

 
A blog post titled "5 of Our Parenting Choices People Have an Opinion About" got us ranting about why everyone insists on caring about how other families raise their kids. We judge those who would judge others.

What We’re Watching: ZEP “Zoey’s Extraordinary Memory” and Veronica Mars “Mars, Bars”

3/30/2021

0 Comments

 
Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist is back, and so is its general focus on White People Problems. But we're still rooting for Zoey and the gang (especially for the new love interests for Max and Mo). Next: "Zoey's Extraordinary Birthday."

On Veronica Mars, the coach's murder turns out to be merely a case-of-the-week that lasted two weeks. But the bodies keep piling up: Mindy O'Dell's ex, Steve, is dead by the end of the episode, and so is ... Sheriff Lamb! Next: "Papa's Cabin."

Parenting Myth-Busting

3/29/2021

0 Comments

 
When we read "Doctors debunk 16 myths about raising kids," we had to jump in and debunk some of the debunking. After all, our mantra is "every family is different, every child is different" and sometimes that means those myths ring a little bit true.

Speed-Round Sunday: Our Dietary Restrictions

3/28/2021

0 Comments

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

Terri's trip to the Gluten Free and Allergy Friendly Expo (now called the Nourished Festival) got us thinking about all the different allergy-accommodating foods available today and whether we really have to have that restriction to enjoy them.

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

Would You Do a Digital Detox?

3/25/2021

0 Comments

 
We obsess about Reviews.org's offer of cash in exchange for a digital detox (no phones, TVs, computers, video games, smart devices). We think $2,400 is a pretty nice sum for a 24-hour-long nap.

Instagram for Kids: Dislike

3/24/2021

0 Comments

 
On this week's Round 3, we complain about the possibility of Instagram for Kids. This seems like a good idea for absolutely no one (except marketers looking to sell stuff to pre-teens).

What We’re Watching: Veronica Mars “Postgame Mortem”

3/23/2021

0 Comments

 
On this week's entertainment-themed Round 2, Veronica Mars season 3 adds another murder into the mix. But what we really care about is the buddy comedy "Logan and Heather." We also listened to the Veronica Mars Investigations episode "There's Gotta Be a Poughkeepsie Mortem," which pointed out the Dick and Madison ret-conning that's happening this season. Next: Veronica Mars season 3 episodes 14 "Mars, Bars" and Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist is back with season 2 episode 7, "Zoey's Extraordinary Memory." We got this wrong in the episode, but plan to watch Zoey instead of a second episode of Veronica so we can discuss both shows on our March 30 episode.

A Messy Mom Is a Good Mom

3/22/2021

0 Comments

 
An article listing "14 Signs You're a Good Mom" got us talking about all those dead giveaways that a child lives in your house: toys in the bathtub, random detritus in all kinds of odd places, and so on. We agree with the author's conclusion that these are all signs that a mom has her priorities (if not her stuff) in the right place.
