Liz Alterman’s Disastrous Multi-Generational Vacation

Teen Speak with Angela Burk

What happens when midlife moms can't decode their own teens language? Comedy gold. This week on The Mom Coms: Stand-up and Stories [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mom-coms-stand-up-stories-the/id1890242089], Holly Rizzuto Palker [https://substack.com/profile/23031866-holly-rizzuto-palker], Liz Alterman [https://substack.com/profile/2796455-liz-alterman] and Stephanie Silberstein [https://substack.com/profile/148389257-stephanie-silberstein] welcome Angela Burk [https://substack.com/profile/338786910-angela-burk] — author of The Real Girl's Guide to Midlife and the Substack sensation behind realgirlsguidetomidlife.com — for an episode that goes from decoding teen slang to hot flashes to thong funerals without ever coming up for air. This one's for every parent who's ever been called an "unc" by their own kid. Angela also gives us reasons why thongs don’t work for the over-50 set. Hint: it isn’t a callus that causes discomfort!
