Get real with two blondie mamas who have found themselves in Florida, trying to navigate it all and failing often 🤣🥴

Gratitude, Attitude and Grifters

Gretchen and Megan spend this episode spiraling through the hellscape of modern parenting. Between losing goddamn gift cards and leaning into their "Bad Mom" personas, they manage to survive tweenage drama involving a shattered bracelet and a captive-audience sermon about gratitude delivered to their ungrateful crotch-goblings. The highlight? A Disney trip that predictably devolved into an emotional dumpster fire, punctuated by a surprise announcement of a literal human bowel movement. When they aren't managing feces or prepubescent rage, the duo talks shit about politics, celebrity fuck-ups, and the delusional "girl math" they’re using to justify upcoming trips to Nashville and the DR. It’s a chaotic mess, but at least they’re laughing while the ship goes down.

Clean Up on Aisle 47

Strap in — this episode is a wild ride through the chaos of co-parenting, gun politics, and why movie nights might just be the last bastion of sanity. Gretchen and Megan kick things off with a hilarious take on family life — because who hasn't threatened to fake their own death just to get a night off? But things get real fast, as they dive into hot-button topics like political “unity” (whatever that means), America’s healthcare circus, and the never-ending nightmare that is gun violence. With the signature blend of sass, smarts, and “did-she-just-say-that?” honesty, the girls pull no punches — calling out hypocrisy, sharing gut-punch personal stories, and reminding us all that empathy isn't just for yoga retreats. But don’t worry — it’s not all doomscroll and despair. The episode wraps with a much-needed palate cleanser: juicy TV recs, pop culture rants, and the age-old debate over whether it’s morally acceptable to skip the group text for your own sanity. Come for the laughs, stay for the rage, and leave with a renewed desire to dismantle the patriarchy — one podcast at a time.

episode September is Gone artwork

September is Gone

In this episode, Gretchen and Megan get real—like, wine-on-a-Wednesday, group-text-with-your-besties kind of real. They open up about the highs, lows, and beautifully messy in-betweens of life: co-parenting snafus, kids with very big feelings, and the emotional gymnastics required just to get through a Tuesday. With wit and warmth, they unpack the pressures women face—from societal expectations to the quiet guilt that sneaks in during screen time (theirs and the kids’). There’s also pop culture hot takes (because of course), sharp political commentary (get ready to yell “YES!” in your car), and honest talk about what it means to hold a community together in tough times. They celebrate the power of female friendships, the importance of showing up, and the resilience of organizations like Planned Parenthood that keep fighting the good fight. It's funny. It’s moving. It’s the conversation you didn’t know you needed—but you’ll be glad you joined.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
