Published by For Crying Out Loud
Lynette Carolla, and Stefanie Wilder-Taylor are two mothers of twins just trying not to eff it up. In this raucous hour of conversation they cover a range of topics from marriage, divorce and the space in between, to what they’re watching, where they’re going (Target) and how they manage to look so damn young. The format is informative, loose and most of all entertaining. If you’re looking for parenting advice you’ve come to the wrong place but when you hear their honest, unfiltered experiences you may come away knowing what NOT to do. Put them in your ears while you clean your floors or walk your dog and let them keep you company during what will surely become your favorite hours of the week. New shows come out Tuesdays and Fridays.

If you've ever moved to a new city thinking a fresh start would fix the drinking -- and then found yourself alone on the couch at 2 PM on a Tuesday with a bottle you swore you weren't opening? Alysse Bryson gets it. This week I'm talking to the founder of The Sober Curator, who has 20 years sober. We get into the geographic cure, project-managing your own rock bottom, emergency heart surgery at 40, and I also say somethings about tiramisu that I probably should have kept to myself.

Stefanie is joined by Casey McGuire Davidson and Sara Kaufman-Bradstreet to talk about getting sober after having kids, what our children remember — or thankfully don’t — and how we talk to teenagers about drinking, weed, driving, consent, and all the fun topics that make parenting feel like a hostage negotiation with snacks. They also get into mom wine culture, shame, sober sex, and why quitting drinking didn’t make them less fun — just less likely to fall asleep mid-sentence. Or mid-other things.
