Moderately Prepared, The Podcast Ann

Christmas is past, by just two days, and we're still in the glow of the holiday. Like all good parents of adult children, we took ours to the ferry this morning, braving icy roads - and having made it back alive, we promptly went to the liquor cabinet for a bracing shot (or two) of whiskey. This episode is a short ramble about weather, canceled flights, Mr. Bill and of course, whiskey.Our podcast recommendation this week is Chicks on the Right - if you like funny, topical hu...

It's the week before Christmas and the real vs artificial tree debate lives on. Rebecca talks about how she has evolved from the thrill of the hunt for the perfect real tree (a/k/a old and stodgy) while Ann misses the traditional green tree (despite the bugs, and the occasional owl or snake). And of course, we get into a spirited debate about how our flocked tree is either perfect or losing it's luster! You decide - we'll post a photo our tree in all its failing ...

What is Alpha Charlie Charlie? You'll have to listen to find out what that means. Rebecca can't sing, though she continues to do so. She's got the holiday spirit, even if it is off key. Yet, her singing may be the best part of today's podcast. We talk about some of our favorite holiday movies - and folks, there are a lot of them! We share some of our favorites from childhood and today, and yes, Rebecca continues to sing.As always, we're moderately prepared...

We're back! We took a creative hiatus...at least that's our story. And now we're back and more moderately prepared than ever. Our podcasts will now be 10 to 15 minutes in length, more like "podcastettes." We think it'll more interesting for you, the listener, and we're lazy. It takes a lot less work to edit 15 minutes of moderate brilliance.While we were on a podcasting break, the world shifted - Britney Spears is now free to spend her money any way she likes.&n...

Happy Mother's Day! Rebecca announces she supports all blue people, and we talk about the Chinese Long March 5b rocket that made it's way (we think) to Earth, somewhere in the Indian Ocean. We poke a little fun at the gays, because we can. We laugh at Rebecca sending Ann a used Valentine's Day card and other cute marital things each other does. It's a big show, we cover the alleged doping scandal from this year's Kentucky Derby, new binge worthy shows and Rebecca's philosophy of ...

Just how what lengths would you go to for love? For Ann....it seems that duct taping flashlights on her car to get to the airport is a step too far. (Weak). And Rebecca, does what it takes to keep her wife safe. Then, we must cover the randomness that is life including SpaceX, May the 4th and Cocoa Beach and living off the grid in Alaska. Ann announces she in uncancelable (this may be a new word). Rebecca tries to embrace her inner Borg. We're extremely moderately prepared, ...
