Nontoxic Parenting Advice

7/29/2021

0 Comments

 
After last week's rant about toxic parenting advice, we thought we should put our money where our mouths are and share advice that actually did work for us (and doesn't shame you for doing the wrong thing). Of course, YMMV!

Under Pressure

7/28/2021

0 Comments

 
A tweet from author Holly Bourne lamenting societal pressure to sleep, eat, walk, meditate, care for our homes and more every single day got us complaining about the pressures we feel, especially as moms--since we have to cover that whole to-do list plus parent our children.

What We’re Watching: Making It and Veronica Mars “Years, Continents, Bloodshed”

7/27/2021

0 Comments

 
On this week's entertainment-themed Round 2, the mega-craft returned to Making It, along with a new project called the procrasti-craft. And we said goodbye to Baseball Blake, whose extremely cool origami door could not save him from a hanging chair that couldn't quite hang.

We also said goodbye to Veronica Mars season 4 with "Years, Continents, Bloodshed" (title drawn from this season 2 scene). We knew what was coming and we are still annoyed. 

Next: We will return to Veronica Mars in a few weeks after the Veronica Mars Investigations podcast drops their wrap-up episodes. In the interim, we will continue with Making It and, in a tribute to the best season of Veronica Mars (that'd be #1) and its many flashbacks, we'll flash back to a movie from 1998: Practical Magic.

Mentioned: The luxury suites aboard the Queen Mary, featured in the movie Let Them All Talk.

7/25/2021

0 Comments

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

​It's dry-skin season, at least for the two non-Californians among us, and that means either disgusting greasy lotion stickiness or constant itching. Terri's hoping for some go-to moisturizer tips. Maybe you have some? Help out in the comments. Mentioned: Gold Bond, Kiehl's, CeraVe, our episode on habits.

7/24/2021

0 Comments

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

Does Your Home Have a Dress Code?

7/22/2021

0 Comments

 
A recent conversation on The Bobby Bones Show got us obsessing: What would we do if one of our kids' teenage friends showed up at our house dressed inappropriately? First we obsessed over defining "inappropriate." Then we pondered what our house rules are. And finally, we wrung our hands at the thought of confronting a kid, no matter what they were wearing.
