On Second-Listen Saturday, we share moments from past episodes for your weekend listening pleasure. This discussion is from March 2019.
We've tried cute little notes, temper tantrums, and repeating ourselves over and over (and over) again. And yet, our families ignore our wise counsel and basic rules.

On this week’s Roundabout Roundup, Nicole's enjoying traveling the world with Ed People on TikTok. Catherine's shouting out Milk-Bone Good Morning Daily Vitamin Treats for helping her dog's creaky joints. And Terri has a spiffy new tripod standing desk that lets her travel from room to room with her laptop.
Thanks as always to Jon Morin for our fun in-and-out music, which you hear on every episode.
Spontaneity is easy and fun when you have no jobs, kids, or pets. At our stage in life, we require plenty of time for advance planning and advance worrying.
An article suggesting "10 Practical Ways to Improve Happiness" got us complaining about exactly how practical it is, for example, to walk an hour a day, read for pleasure an hour a day, and exercise, and socialize with your colleagues, and on and on. It doesn't make us happy to have to follow these rules, OK?
On this week's entertainment-themed Round 2: Bridgerton took a bit of a darker turn and gave us some traumatic Bridgerton family backstory. So we forgive Anthony's rakishness, for now. Next: "Victory."
Luckily, The Afterparty brought the mood back up with a lightweight musical episode. It didn't bring us any closer to solving the mystery, but it was fun to watch. Next: "Chelsea."
Like Duh-nelle on TikTok, we are unapologetically not crunchy moms. We are the opposite of cloth-diapering, gardening, chemical-free parents--which makes us soggy moms. How about you?
On Speed-Round Sunday, we share a mini episode from our past for your weekend listening pleasure.
It's the kind of thing we'd love to say that we do—especially Terri, who used to work for Hallmark—but between the cost and the time and the organization needed to actually buy and mail something, we're not exactly on it.
On Second-Listen Saturday, we share moments from past episodes for your weekend listening pleasure. This discussion is from March 2019.
In this episode, we're talking about kids today—or really, kids' activities today and how they're really kids' and parents' activities. Because why wouldn't we want to balance parenting, working, family relationships, and maintaining a home with a full-time job as a soccer mom?
On this week’s Roundabout Roundup, Terri recommends Wakeout!, an app that she says makes exercise fun. And in Nicole's absence, Catherine resurrects the Instagram Minute with her shout-out of Depths of WIkipedia, which will add randomness and giggles to your Insta feed.
Thanks as always to Jon Morin for our fun in-and-out music, which you hear on every episode.
With TV shows like Full House and iCarly returning with re-imaginings and reboots, we obsessed about who, exactly, these shows are really for: The kids who used to watch them, or their moms?
