    PLATYPUS SWEAT MILK?!?!

    BIG news to start off the pod today, the Thankful Turkey is up and Kelly's kitchen is clean! What the kids are saying they are grateful for could use a little work, but Lizz is very grateful for the Thankful Turkey and the new outlook it has given her sister on life. Kelly is thankful for soup.  Speaking of turkeys, why don't we eat turkey eggs? We eat every other kind of bird eggs, what is wrong with a turkey egg? As Kelly and Lizz dive into that question, they realize that they really need to have more interests and do a deep dive into topics more often. For example: did you know that platypus sweat milk?!? A random facts segment could be coming to the podcast soon.  Are you a "Go Wide" or a "Go Deep" cleaner? The ladies discuss the difference, why they are both "Go Wide" people and why it might be time to change it up.  Kelly and Lizz are back to answering your advice questions in this episode, starting with a question on gold vs. silver jewelry. Which one is better for an engagement ring? Then finding the perfect grandpa car and advice on cleaning out your closet during postpartum.  In Industry News, Kelly has details on the new Scout SUV electric vehicle. Do people with EVs go off-roading? It's time to investigate. Nissan is going through a rough patch and cutting jobs. Finally, what the next Trump presidency could mean for the electric vehicle market.  For Ditch the Drive-Thru today, Lizz is making chicken nugget wraps that are a little elevated thanks to a special ingredient. Then, Kelly talks all about her buffalo chicken dish with sweet potatoes and cottage cheese.  Finally, we share two more stories of little ones gone too soon during Blake's Besties.  Learn more about your ad choices.

    MAKE THE BROWN SUGAR POP-TART

    Kelly and Lizz are striving to be more positive on the pod this week, but first Lizz needs to talk a little about the giant zit on her head. On the other end of the spectrum, Kelly is getting super excited for Thanksgiving and their dads Lemon Drop Martinis. Speaking of the holidays, which is better - the lead up to Christmas or Christmas day itself?  Kelly has some advice for moms this week, do that little thing you want to do but think you don't have time for. Want to make the viral brown sugar pop-tart? Do it! Hopefully she'll take her own advice and make that Thankful Turkey...  In Driveway Dumps, Lizz is discovering the awkwardness of trying to make adult friends as a couple with kids. What is the etiquette here? Kelly is not ready to be the parent of a big kid but IS ready to not have to parent a toddler while 9 months pregnant ever again!  Fast Lane Philosophy is deep this week. Lizz came across a post on Instagram that hit her hard: "You would die for your kids, but would you get healthy for them?" Equally, Kelly came across one that hit her hard: "Believing in Jesus and not doing what he demands is what the devil does."  In Industry News, the Grand Highlander is getting a new trim, an interesting new feature that might be coming to cars and how 3D printing is allowing old cars to get those parts that are no longer being made. The Frisco Melt is making Lizz's day in Ditch the Drive-Thru and Kelly has a similar more fancy version she's making.  Finally, we hear the stories from two moms that lost their littles ones too soon in Blake's Besties.   Learn more about your ad choices.

    GETTING READY FOR HOLIDAY TO-DOS

    Kelly and Lizz aren't here to judge you for putting up your holiday decorations. If that's what makes you comfortable, you do you! Kelly is so ready for the holiday season, her Christmas cards are arriving and she's picking out Libby's stocking. But don't worry, they're not too far into the Christmast state of mind as they have some leftover Halloween candy to deal with first. It's all about recognizing the space you're at in today's episode, and the space Kelly and Lizz are currently at involves planning their Thanksgiving espresso martinis.  In Driveway Dumps, Kelly has discovered her next method to get out of her ugly era thanks to switching to silver jewelry. Then somehow both ladies have discovered new tricks to making their eyelashes pop!  Last three transactions have Kelly and Lizz revealing their latest purchases including a fabric shaver, new stroller and cardigans. Plus, we figured out why Kelly is only giving two gifts to her kids this year at Christmas - she's already giving them everything else! Lizz is on a sippy cup journey and should Kelly keep her towel warmer for research purposes? This all leads to a really interesting question - when do we go from comforting our kids to spoiling them?  In industry news, the price gap between new and used cars is wider than ever, the shocking number of Ferraris on the road and how to tell if your used car has flood damage. Then in Ditch the Drive-Thru, Kelly has a recipe for a turkey taco skillet you're going to want to try and Lizz has advice to avoid turning your child into a picky eater.  Finally, we share two more beautiful stories from Carpool listeners on the little ones they lost way too soon.  Visit CleanSimpleEats.com and use code CARPOOL10 at checkout for 10% off your order.

    FACT OR FICTION - CAR EDITION

    It's November! With a new month comes unseasonably warm temperatures and back to two episodes a week. It couldn't come at a better time as there is a LOT happening in both Kelly and Lizz's homes. There are roosters and chickens at the Stumpe house that has Kelly asking questions she never knew she would have to ask. Then, ongoing work going on at Lizz's new home has quickly humbled both her and Mathew and reminded them that owning a home is basically a money pit no matter what you do.  Today, Kelly brought a new game to the podcast - Fact or Fiction. This week it is an all car edition (because of course it is). Which one of these cars are real cars you could buy at one time and which are just made up? This all leads to a conversation on the Honda Odyssey and Kelly's hot take.  In Driveway Dumps, Lizz needs to talk about those playground etiquette and the moms that watch their phones instead of their kids. When is it okay to step in and tell the kids "no"? What do you do when you have parenting styles that are different from those around you? Kelly let's us in on the show she just started binging - Desperate Housewives. With eight seasons and only watching 30 minutes at a time, this one might take her a couple years to finish. Lizz has an app suggestion she's currently obsessed with and already made her $50! Finally, Kelly is enjoying the simple pleasure of paying in cash and hand washing the dishes.  An advice question from a listener has the Car Mom discussing if a Pilot or Odyssey is the best fit for a family of four with a 2-year-old and a 13-year old. That same listener has a GREAT Ditch the Drive-Thru suggestion with BBQ chicken sliders and Kelly shares her recent stuffed bell pepper soup recipe that she is very proud of.  All November we are celebrating Blake's Besties and sharing stories from moms of the little ones they lost too soon. Today we have the honor to share the stories of two little ones, Jasmine and Mica.  Visit CleanSimpleEats.com and use code CARPOOL10 at checkout for 10% off your order.

    YOUR CHILDREN ARE THE ENEMY, NOT YOUR HUSBAND

    For the first time in a long time, Kelly and Lizz are in-person for today's episode! But the bigger news might be the newest addition to Lizz's house in the form of 1/4 a cow and 1/2 a hog. In the midst of the fall craziness, it's time to plan a 30th birthday for the youngest of the Carpool ladies. But what does Lizz really want to do on her big day?  A new millennial word of the day has everyone asking what could lose them "aura points." Lizz's Fast Lane Philosophy reminds everyone that your spouse is not the enemy and to not take the day's stress out of them. Then, Kelly's new Base Model Luxury has her loving the simple joy of washing her face at the end of a long day.  Why does nobody talk about how hard it is to find matching family outfits for photo shoots? Lizz is stressing out in the Driveway Dump over finding the perfect outfits for another family photo and is wondering why there isn't one great Instagram page with ideas. Kelly has a question on when a photo deserves to be framed. Plus, an advice question leads to Kelly sharing her new two present rule for her kids at Christmas. Will she stick to it?  Big stories in Industry News, including the Ford Bronco sales decline, SUV of the year and finalists for the Car Mom Car of the Year! Kelly is bringing the Ditch the Drive Thru with a lemon pepper chicken Caesar salad with noodles that Lizz has some questions about.  Starting in November the Carpool is bringing back "Blake's Besties."
