Two moms. Zero filter. Tanya and Sarah met on the Hillary Clinton campaign - before marriage, before kids - bonding over spicy margaritas and campaign chaos. A decade later, a few babies in and some political burnout behind them, they're still deep in the madness of modern politics… and now the messiness of motherhood too. They couldn't find a space that spoke to politically engaged moms overwhelmed by today's extremes - so they created one.

    The Courage to Deconstruct: A Conversation With Christian Cult Survivors

    Sarah and Tanya kick off the episode with a lighthearted conversation about Fourth of July traditions, parenting moments, and a few of the latest headlines before welcoming Margaret Bronson and Brittany Ericson of Deconstruction Doulas. Margaret and Brittany share their powerful stories of leaving high-control fundamentalist religious communities (aka cults) and discuss the challenges of rebuilding their lives after religious trauma. They also explain how Deconstruction Doulas supports survivors navigating life beyond abuse while offering insight into recognizing the signs of coercive religious environments. It's an eye-opening conversation about resilience, healing, and finding the courage to reclaim your own path.

    Raising Kids & Raising Hell with State Representative Lindsay Gilchrist

    Sarah and Tanya welcome State Representative Lindsay Gilchrist for a candid conversation that moves from the chaos of parenting to the complexities of public service and policy-making. What begins with airplane snacks, sick kids, and TV obsessions quickly opens into a wider reflection on motherhood, identity, and the systems that shape family life today. Lindsey shares her journey through politics, foster care, and adoption, offering an unfiltered look at building a family through uncertainty, love, and resilience. Together, they explore what it means to legislate from lived experience, to parent through burnout and joy, and to keep showing up for both your kids and your community when the world feels like it's spinning a little too fast.   The Denver Post: https://www.denverpost.com/2026/06/10/colorado-aba-autism-license-law/    Meet the Women Behind the Mic   Tanya Nathan is a political campaign and communications strategist with over a decade of experience in progressive campaigns and advocacy.

    Making Change in Our Own Backyards with Executive Director of States Win Sarah Curmi

    Sarah and Tanya swap stories from the front lines of parenthood - from birthday celebrations and parenting mishaps to the bittersweet realization that their kids are growing up fast. They also dive into the headlines, unpacking everything from rising costs to global health concerns. Then, they sit down with Sarah Curmi, Executive Director of States Win, for a conversation about why state legislatures are at the center of some of the biggest fights over abortion rights, child care, education, and democracy. It's an honest, hopeful discussion about grassroots organizing, the power of down-ballot races, and how busy parents can make a meaningful impact in their own communities.   Meet the Women Behind the Mic   Tanya Nathan is a political campaign and communications strategist with over a decade of experience in progressive campaigns and advocacy.

    Hot Mom Summer and Trump's Slush Fund

    A refresh, a reality check, and a whole lot of mom mayhem. This season premiere kicks off with a mix of big-picture conversation and everyday parenting moments. From unpacking the controversial "anti-weaponization fund" and what it could mean for families, to reflecting on summer planning, childhood nostalgia, and how parenting has changed across generations. Of course, it wouldn't be Momarchy without plenty of relatable chaos in between - tantrums, sunglasses getting destroyed, snack hacks, and the ongoing debate of gentle parenting vs. "figure it out" parenting.    Meet the Women Behind the Mic   Tanya Nathan is a political campaign and communications strategist with over a decade of experience in progressive campaigns and advocacy.

    The DGAF Summer Starts Now

    Turns out the president and every mom in America have something in common — they're both exhausted. The difference is only one of them gets to nap at work and still have a job. In this week's episode, Sarah and Tanya open with Mother's Day stories, sick kids, and gift wins before diving into the headlines. Trump was caught on camera asleep at the White House launch of moms.gov, a site they say is already broken and pushing dangerous misinformation, including links to pregnancy centers, while RFK Jr. and Dr. Oz call it a MAHA victory and warn America is "under-babied." They also cover Spencer Pratt's viral post-wildfire content, the disconnect between his sympathy campaign and his family's actual accommodations, and an update on the Alex Murdaugh case getting a new trial. With primaries approaching, they back Shannon Bird in Colorado's 8th over Manny Rutinel, break down California's wide-open governor's race, and raise concerns about Michigan's Abdul El-Sayed and his ties to Hasan Piker. The deeper conversation is the motherhood penalty and what research shows about how working mothers are paid, perceived, and left behind by policy, and why it keeps getting ignored. They close with a DGAF Summer segment on the pressures moms face this time of year, from magical summer expectations to screen time guilt to the cost of camp, plus a preview of upcoming guests.

    Digital First: Danielle Butterfield on Infrastructure, Innovation & the Road to 2028

    What does it take to build a Democratic Party that can actually compete in the digital age? In this episode, we're joined by Danielle Butterfield, Executive Director of Priorities USA, to discuss how Democrats are still stuck in a TV-first mindset and what it will take to change that. Danielle shares how Priorities is building year-round digital infrastructure through tools, research, training, and digital ad programming, and why the party needs to stop reinventing the wheel every election cycle. We also talk about what real digital innovation looks like versus just shifting TV dollars to connected TV, how Josh Shapiro's creator strategy serves as a model for what's possible when you build early, and why 2026 is being used as a laboratory for 2028. Danielle also breaks down Priorities' Ohio research targeting young men on YouTube with niche-relevant ads, and why rewarding future-oriented digital expertise needs to become a cultural shift across the Democratic Party.

    What Moms Are Thinking But Not Saying (Out Loud)

    There's no such thing as balance, just trade-offs, mom guilt, and trying to keep up with a world that won't slow down. In this week's episode, we get real about motherhood: why balance feels impossible, how screen time guilt sneaks in, and the unspoken pressure on women to look and act a certain way just to be taken seriously at work.After catching up on nostalgic pop culture news—including The Devil Wears Prada 2, Practical Magic 2, and Taylor Swift's latest perspective shift—we turn to a week of headlines that are getting harder to ignore. From a security scare at the White House Correspondents' Dinner to broader conversations around public safety, media narratives, and domestic violence, we unpack what these moments say about trust in our institutions. We also touch on headlines involving Jack Schlossberg and Kash Patel, along with growing concerns around harmful online spaces. We close with a grounded conversation about time, motherhood, and the gap between real life and the advice we're constantly given plus a quick "hot or not" to keep things honest.
