Episode 6 – It’s Pr0n Night…

Episode 9 – We Went to Geek Girl Con!

I know, I know, we missed an episode number. Episode 8 was lost forever. We recorded an episode about reusable pads and menstrual cups (tentative title – Menstrual Rage.) It was a good episode, but we had some audio settings wrong and the resulting files were unusable. If the topic is of interest to you, drop us a line letting us know and maybe we’ll get motivated enough to recut it at some point! We’re really excited about this episode though, which *did* work out well, despite the challenges of recording on the road. We went to our favorite convention, Geek Girl Con, and Cadence interviewed lots of really interesting people. We have some great photos and bios of the people we talked to, and I’ll post them here on the site in short order and link to them so you can find their stuff! We talked about: * Making Art and Comics * How to start selling your art and comics * Gaming with your family or friends who are new to it * Coloring metals by electrocuting them * Colored pencil sketches as a first layer of art * Art as a means of protest * Cadence’s unreasonable issues with R2D2 and his electric ukelele * Lots more!

Episode 7 – Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails

In this episode, aside from learning that Cadence has started taking high school Spanish, we talk about dating and communication mishaps of all kinds. We talk about Cadence’s tendency to run headfirst into walls, all of her least favorite spices, ocean swimming and the calculus of teen rage.

Episode 6 – It’s Pr0n Night…

This episode, after a long hiatus, we tackle the awkward subject of internet porn. We talk about Wonder Woman, 1337speak, and the shocking truth about teenage girls and their relationship with… porn. List of links forthcoming…

Episode 5 – Cadence Has a Plan

Content Warning: School Shootings and Gun Violence This was a tough episode. If talking to our kids is the hardest part of parenting, it doesn’t get harder than when we have to address all of the terrible things that happen in the world. This was a really good conversation though, and both Cadence and Gawen had a lot of insight to offer and tough questions to ask, and by the end of the episode, Cadence found her way to a new plan that brought a little hope back into her day. We’d like to thank Scott Holmes, for allowing us to use his song, Wasted Britain. He has a lot of really great songs on the Free Music Archive [http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Scott_Holmes/]

Episode 4 – Cadence invented Friendster

[http://www.marysturgeon.net/coffeewithmymom/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Social-Media-169x300.png] This week was an interesting episode, because now that we have a few episodes under our belt, we’re getting real. Social Media is a common point of contention between parents and teens, and we’re no exception. We talk about how we’ve approached this contentious topic, from what a parent’s role should be in helping our teens learn to use social media, some things teens should be aware of, and all the ways Cadence and I may or may not agree on the subject! We’d like to thank Scott Holmes, for allowing us to use his song, Brit Pop. He has a lot of really great songs on the Free Music Archive [http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Scott_Holmes/]
