On Second-Listen Saturday, we share some fun moments from past episodes for your weekend listening pleasure.
Is your clan starting to look like something from Modern Family? Are you close to aunts and uncles and cousins and siblings, or happy staying as far away from any feud fodder as you can? Are your friends more your family than your family? We have an extended talk about extended family. Want more? Listen to the rest of this September 2016 episode.

On this week’s Roundabout Roundup, Terri's thankful for the cloud's magic ability to make her life easier, while Nicole's praising Costco Travel for saving her money on car rentals. And Catherine enjoyed the mother-daughter movie Where'd You Go, Bernadette (she also talked up the book on a 2015 Round 2 episode).
Thanks as always to Jon Morin for our fun in-and-out music, which you hear on every episode.
Inspired by John and Sherry at Young House Love Has a Podcast, we discuss the Rule of Age 10, which posits that your youthful obsessions can identify your calling in life. Turns out, this rule might be right on.
With the 2010s coming to an end, everyone's talking about the bests of the decade. We, of course, had to talk about this topic our way: By complaining about parenting trends that trouble and annoy us. Mentioned: Our episode on college reveal eventst—and happy birthday to us!
NBC made Making It into a two-week-long "event" instead of a season, and the show felt overpackaged. But we still enjoyed watching creative makers make things. Mentioned: The Extra Hot Great podcast discussion of the season.
On The West Wing's "Requiem," we said goodbye to both Leo McGarry and John Spencer, with lovely tributes both on the episode and on the West Wing Weekly podcast. (And here's the ID on the mystery pallbearer at the funeral.)
Sure, there are things we can (and probably really should) teach our grown and nearly-grown kids how to do. But then we'd be out of a job, and we kind of like this parenting gig.
On Speed-Round Sunday, we share a mini episode from our past for your weekend listening pleasure.
A while back we talked on a Speed Round about places we'd like to visit, and thinking a little more along those lines, we share some other things we'd like to do before it's too late, from education to travel to all being in the same room. Do you have a bucket list?
On Second-Listen Saturday, we share some fun moments from past episodes for your weekend listening pleasure.
Is moving away from home an absolute rite of young adulthood that we must force our kids to engage in above all else? Or can we give the kids a break and let them stay in the nest while they struggle to get started in a crummy job market? We share our own movin' out stories and wonder what's next for our kids. Want more? Listen to the rest of this August 2016 episode.
It's time for one last rummaging through the grab bag to end the week. Today, have some fun with a chat on our fave songs to entertain or maybe annoy our kids with, plus our thoughts on dogs’ birthday parties.
From the grab bag today: Chats on comfort food and weird things we’ve found. But first, we’ll look back on that time when Nicole wore two different shoes. (While we’re at it, you might want to take a quick look to make sure yours match; we know how things can get this time of year.)
