    Parenting Tips from “Shrinking” S3 E1, ”My Bad”

    Each Tuesday (formerly Wednesdays, but we've made a shift), we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property. Currently, we're happy to be back with our friends from Shrinking. They're facing both new and evolving issues: an emptying nest, a refilling nest, a difficult diagnosis, and more. But they're doing it together. Next week, we'll continue with Shrinking S3 E2, "Happiness Mission." We'll be back tomorrow to discuss Lost.

    Weekly Roundup: “Just Do Nothing (for Parents),” Prayminder App, and Snow Days

    Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week. Catherine's library find is a parenting book. Its title caught her eye, but it's not necessarily what it seems (who woulda thought?). That title is Just Do Nothing (for Parents): How to Parent Better By Doing Less by Joanna Hardis. ​ Terri's random recommendation is not to do nothing, but instead to pray regularly. The Prayminder app is helping her do that. Like an Apple Watch for the soul, it issues reminders to keep you on track. In the archives, we checked in on an episode from 2019 on snow days, which are themselves becoming a thing of the past. Next week's lineup: Shrinking S3 E1, "My Bad," on Tuesday, February 3Lost S4 E12, "There's No Place Like Home," on Wednesday, February 4Weekly roundup on Thursday, February 5 Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.

    Parenting Tips from “A Man on the Inside” Season 2

    Each Wednesday, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property, and for this week, we binged A Man on the Inside's season 2. As with last season, we enjoyed the gentle, loving Mike Schur sitcom of it all and the many wonderful actors, even if the mystery wasn't especially strong. Mentioned: a You've Got Mail scene and manic pixie dream girls. For next week, we'll switch up our order and discuss Lost on our Wednesday episode, and switch our newer series watch to Tuesdays with the return of Shrinking (season 3). We'll be back tomorrow with our weekly roundup.

    Parenting Tips from “Lost” S4 E11, “Cabin Fever”

    Each Tuesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. What made Locke the way he is, you ask? Well, you'll find out in this episode, and encounter some creepy characters from the island and its orbit along the way. Next week, we'll adjust our schedule a bit and continue with season 4, episode 12, "There's No Place Like Home, Part 1" on Wednesday. Tomorrow, we'll discuss a newer show, season 2 of A Man on the Inside. This episode was recorded before a live studio audience ... of dogs.

    Weekly Roundup: “What If You Had Animal Teeth,” Big A## Calendar, and Monetary Motivation

    Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week. Catherine's library find is a nonfiction series for kids that starts with What If You Had Animal Teeth? and moves on through animal hair, scales, feet, eyes, and more. The author is Sandra Markle and the illustrator is Howard McWilliam, and we congratulate them on finding a hook and running with it. ​ Terri's random recommendation is twofold: First, the Big A## Calendar, which is currently organizing her life from its place on her office wall. But her second recommendation is to be more cautious with Facebook ads than she was. Think, and verify, before you buy! In the archives, we checked in on an episode from 2022 on monetary motivation for kids. Next week's lineup: Lost S4 E11, "Cabin Fever" on Tuesday, January 27A Man on the Inside, season 2, on Wednesday, January 28Weekly roundup on Thursday, January 29 Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.

    Parenting Tips from “The Lowdown” S1 E8, “The Sensitive Kind”

    Every Wednesday, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property, and currently, that's The Lowdown. The season finale wrapped everything up in a fairly tidy bow, even including a wedding (for Francis's mom). Overall, we enjoyed this show, even as it swung from silly to serious and back. For next week, we'll binge all of season 2 of A Man on the Inside and discuss it on our Wednesday episode. We'll be back tomorrow with our weekly roundup.

    Parenting Tips from “Lost” S4 E10, “Something Nice Back Home”

    Each Tuesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. This was another Jack-is-a-mess episode, even though there was a brief period of things going well for him. But his bad dad came around to ruin it all, as he frequently does. Next Tuesday, we'll continue with season 4, episode 11, "Cabin Fever." Tomorrow, we'll continue our discussion of a newer show, The Lowdown.

    Weekly Roundup: “The Terrible Meanings of Names,” the UPS App, and Daily Leaps of Faith

    Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week. Catherine's library find is a book that made her chuckle and got us talking about the kids and pets we've named: The Terrible Meanings of Names: Or Why You Shouldn't Poke Your Giselle with a Barry, by Justin Cord Hayes. ​ Terri's random recommendation is the UPS app, because if you have an iPhone, you get a nifty widget that alerts you to the imminent arrival of all your packages. In the archives, we checked in on an episode from 2020 on daily leaps of faith. Next week's lineup:Lost S4 E10, "Something Nice Back Home" on Tuesday, January 20The Lowdown S1 E8, "The Sensitive Kind," on Wednesday, January 21Weekly roundup on Thursday, January 22 Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.
