    Not the Topiary!

    Heather and Cynthia are back, and Heather willingly chose an 8 a.m. mammogram, post–Super Bowl, and showed up with enough energy to be invited back daily by the staff. (Why strangers get the best version of us remains a mystery worth studying.) From there, things escalate quickly—Olympics confusion, a headline that probably requires earbuds if your kids are nearby, and Cynthia deeply misunderstanding what the “Quad God” actually refers to. There’s also a serious exploration of which Winter Olympic sport is best suited for hot flashes, gravity, and middle-aged mom bodies. They also cover: 1.) teen slang that absolutely should not have been rebranded 2.) A family text thread that goes off the rails thanks to geology class and 3.) stranger who chose the wrong front yard, the wrong Amazon package, and the wrong topiary. If you like stories that start normal and end with, “Wait… WHAT just happened?”—this one’s for you.Become a Supertracker: sign up here  Connect with Us:  Website:  Sidetracked Instagram:  CynthiaHeather (@thesidetrackedshow) YouTube: sidetracked with cynthia & heather Ask Me Anything - Sidetracked Heather MacFadyen (@dontmomalone) Cynthia Wilkinson Yanof (@cynthiayanof) Links Mentioned:   Amazon Storefront–all our faves in one place!

    Crocheting, Car Chaos and Castle Selfies

    We accidentally hit record (on brand) and immediately found ourselves deep in Snowmageddon 2026. Heather hasn’t left her house in days and is thriving with a crochet blanket and zero plans. Cynthia, meanwhile, has hosted friends, neighbors, parents, and possibly a small village because extrovert energy does not freeze. Somewhere in the middle of all this, Heather’s family survives multiple car accidents, a dog attack, and a frozen driveway gate that forces an Uber… on ice. Cynthia returns from Disney with one lingering question: Isn’t anyone embarrassed anymore? From sexy selfies in front of the castle to grown men in Disney bomber jackets and adults waiting in line for Darth Vader photos with no children present, shame has fully exited the premises. We wrap things up discussing snow-day survival, snoring husbands, teenage car debates, and the small detail that Cynthia accidentally scheduled a live event on her 25th wedding anniversary. Totally fine. Completely normal. Thanks for tracking with us—we’re cold, slightly unhinged, and doing our best.

    No Underwear, No Marvin, and No Self-Swabbing

    Cynthia is fresh off a trip to Focus on the Family—where she “focused” on everything except packing the essentials. Meanwhile, Heather gets mildly hit on at the body shop while climbing into their totaled car in cheetah pants. From there we veer straight into the chaos of Dallas mom-life: engagement parties, teens abusing calorie-counting apps, the madness of Junior Symphony Ball ticket day, and a breaking-news conversation about the new (and horrifying) trend of DIY swabbing kits.  It’s another Sidetracked that’s equal parts ridiculous, relatable, and completely unhelpful in all the best ways.

    Chips for Breakfast, Vibration Plates for Christmas

    Christmas included a full house and a whole lot of stinky armpits for Cynthia, while Heather returns from Mexico after eating chips for breakfast for a week. The two swap gift stories—Heather accidentally opens Lulu underwear in front of her extended family and Cynthia’s vibration plate brings far more laughter than fitness. There’s also a robust discussion around family game fails (including elderly Empire confusion and duplicate Elon Musks), Heather’s dog’s unfortunate post-boarding situation, and Cynthia’s strangely joyful obsession with Amazon returns.

    Repos, Rockettes, and Shapewear “Situations”

    This episode is officially Sidetracked by Brett—according to Riverside stats and real life. Cynthia outsources a half marathon, still beats Mike, and proves once again that efficiency is a spiritual gift. Meanwhile, Heather’s car gets repossessed, tracked down via Life360, and narrowly saved from auction, which feels extremely on-brand for this show.From there, it’s New York chaos (13.5 miles walked, Bergdorf snobbery, fake purses, secondhand smoke highs, and Rockettes with an obstructed view), followed by Christmas décor spirals, nutcracker regrets, and a Favorite Things party that deserves its own documentary.They wrap it all up with wedding season panic, shapewear betrayal in multiple fast-food bathrooms, Chanel lip gloss theft (no apologies), gift-wrapping parties as ministry, and the reminder that motherhood is mostly logistics, friendship, and laughing so you don’t cry. Become a Supertracker: sign up here Connect with Us:  Website:  Sidetracked Instagram:  CynthiaHeather (@thesidetrackedshow) YouTube: sidetracked with cynthia & heather Ask Me Anything - Sidetracked Heather MacFadyen (@dontmomalone) Cynthia Wilkinson Yanof (@cynthiayanof) Links Mentioned:   Order your Must Be Nice hat here before they are sold out!

    Mounting Dogs and Menopausal Bras

    Heather and Cynthia are back after Thanksgiving and fully committed to the chaos that is early December—menopausal bras, mounting dogs, viral Walmart sweaters, and all that kinda stuff. Heather recaps her Floribama trip and attending church in a bar. Cynthia counters with peak Christmas in Dallas energy with a decked–out Advent service where the trees were glowing, Silent Night was soaring, and JB chose to bring in …a Rubik’s Cube. During church. Naturally. They talk about college kids coming home (and changing the whole vibe of the house in about 12 hours), using ChatGPT as a free holiday therapist, and a viral post from a 76-year-old grandma that has them rethinking how much we center everything around the nuclear family at the holidays. There are front-yard cigar sessions, awkward ex-boyfriend run-ins, grandmas eating puzzle pieces, and a deep dive into whether anyone actually needs Matthew McConaughey’s book of poems and prayers under the tree.

    Prairie Drama, Porch Pirates, and Tangled-Up Teens

    Another week, another Sidetracked stacked with unfiltered life chaos. Cynthia breaks down her girls’ trip—which included a hotel Little House on the Prairie binge and a heated debate over why Almanzo is clearly a 40-year-old courting a child—followed by her now-infamous “did you poop your pants?” bench incident, and the fence-straddle injury that officially shut down her reproductive department.  Heather brings the world’s worst “wife” hat—so atrocious even a porch pirate said “absolutely not”—plus a teenage car moment that left everyone literally wired. And they both ask ChatGPT “What three celebrities am I a mix of?” with results ranging from Melissa McCarthy, Jennifer Garner, and Joanna Gaines (you better believe Cynthia lost her mind over this.)  Today’s episode promises electric wires, questionable fashion, prairie romance analysis, and a soft pitch to HGTV—you’re welcome.  Become a Supertracker: sign up here  Connect with Us:  Website:  Sidetracked Instagram:  CynthiaHeather (@thesidetrackedshow) YouTube: sidetracked with cynthia & heather Ask Me Anything - Sidetracked Heather MacFadyen (@dontmomalone) Cynthia Wilkinson Yanof (@cynthiayanof) Links Mentioned:   Order your Must Be Nice hat here before they are sold out!

    Pancreatitis, Pre-Check, and Pronouncing Gayla

    Heather and Cynthia come in hot today talking about the “not a birthday party” Heather planned for Cynthia — featuring Bridgerton gowns, Boy Scout uniforms, and Heather wearing her mom’s silk ball gown that allegedly ties 11 different ways (some of which should  probably never see daylight).Vegas also makes an appearance — where Mike booked a 6:30 a.m. flight “because it was cheaper,” entered Cynthia’s birthday wrong, and waltzed through TSA PreCheck while she stood with the masses questioning her life.It’s peak Sidetracked today: medical drama, surprise costumes, a gala/gay-la/gah-la pronunciation debate, husbands panicking over dress codes, and moms turning hospital IVs into spa fantasies. Come for the gallbladder chaos; stay for the gala spiral — and leave wondering if Cynthia has a slot machine problem. Become a Supertracker: sign up here Connect with Us:  Website:  Sidetracked Instagram:  CynthiaHeather (@thesidetrackedshow) YouTube: sidetracked with cynthia & heather Ask Me Anything - Sidetracked Heather MacFadyen (@dontmomalone) Cynthia Wilkinson Yanof (@cynthiayanof) Links Mentioned:   Order your Must Be Nice hat here before they are sold out!
