    Let's Know Less

    In this episode, BT and Tubby dive into the age-old adage "Knowledge is Power" and question whether it holds true in today's tech-saturated world. They start by discussing how advancements in technology have given us unprecedented access to information about our kids and families. Unlike the past, where parents knew less and had to trust their kids' accounts of their day, today's parents can monitor their children 24/7 through smartphones, social media, and various apps. They both share hilarious stories about how their husbands are way more relaxed, blissfully unaware of the endless drama of their kids' school and social lives. BT & Tubby also explore the flip side: how kids, feeling more comfortable with technology, are more open than ever about their thoughts and feelings. This increased communication, while beneficial, can also be overwhelming for parents who feel the pressure to constantly process and respond to this influx of information. BT and Tubby debate whether this constant access to information truly empowers parents or just adds to their stress levels. They consider the idea that sometimes, less knowledge might lead to a more peaceful state of mind. Tubby argues that while it's important to stay informed, there needs to be a balance to avoid information overload. In their signature style, BT and Tubby mix humor with thoughtful insights, leaving listeners with plenty to ponder about the true value of knowledge in the digital age. Gap Girls is like an audio therapy session laced with laughter. Imagine two pals who've shared more laughs than can be counted, now inviting you into their world of relatable chaos. BT (Deb) and Tubby's (Barb) candid conversations bring a refreshing twist to the ups and downs of parenting, aging, and all the absurdity in our lives. Whether it's reminiscing about the cubicle days or navigating the intricate art of gracefully aging (or not), their banter is a reminder that life's quirks are best faced with a hearty dose of humor.

    WTH is Wrong with our Kids?!?!

    We suspect social media (surprise).  In the most recent Gap Girls Podcast episode titled "WTH is Wrong with Kids Today," hosts Tubby and BT delve into the concerning rise of mental health issues among today's youth, attributing a significant portion of the problem to the omnipresence of social media in their lives. BT is still traumatized from rejection 40 plus years ago and explores the double rejection if social media had existed.  They chat about the lack of  privacy online, pointing out how being a teen nowadays means your whole life is out there for everyone to see. They discuss the ways in which the constant comparison and the pressure to conform to unrealistic standards contribute to a heightened sense of anxiety and depression among the younger generation. And if adults have FOMO from social media, how can we even imagine the impact on our kids? BT and Tubby share personal anecdotes and insights from their own experience creating a relatable and empathetic space for listeners to reflect on the challenges faced by today's youth and young adults.  Gap Girls is like an audio therapy session laced with laughter.

    Empty Nest Phase is No Joke

    In this episode of The Gap Girls, BT and Tubby explore the multifaceted world of soon-to-be empty nesters. With Tubby just sending her oldest off to college and BT with a senior in high school preparing for college, they explore the newfound upsides and heartaches of the empty nest. It's a journey that begins with a gleeful realization: less cleaning, fewer laundry piles, and far fewer domestic squabbles over who's to blame for the toilet paper shortage. The sense of domestic tranquility that comes with the empty nest is a revelation, where the house practically sighs with relief. But as BT and Tubby wryly remind us, there's another side to the story. The heartache of saying goodbye to your grown-up children as they embark on their own journeys can be poignant. The silence in the house where laughter once echoed, the absence of late night conversations, and the longing for the not-so-subtle pleas for their freedom. In the end, the empty nest brings a mixed bag of emotions. It's a liberating experience marked by the absence of daily chores and the excitement for travel, but it's also a poignant reminder of the profound love, memories, and connections forged over the years. As BT and Tubby reflect, the heartbreak of separation is just as much a part of the journey as the joys of newfound freedom. It's a bittersweet note that lingers long after the kids have left the nest. About the Gap Girls Gap Girls is like an audio therapy session laced with laughter.

    Jealous of My Kid's Dorm Room: College Now vs. Then

    Tubby goes to college, well, her daughter that is. In this episode, we're dishing out the juicy deets on how college life has gone from "meh" to "oh yeah!" since the good ol' 1990s. Get ready to have your mind blown as we spill the tea on swanky dorm rooms, dining upgrades that'll make your taste buds dance, and amenities that could give a fancy spa a run for its money. Remember those dorm rooms that were cozier than a clown car? Yeah, those days are ancient history. Nowadays, it's like students are checking into the Ritz-Carlton of dorm living. We're talking spacious layouts that are basically bigger than some studio apartments, chic furniture that wouldn't be out of place in a design magazine, and bathrooms that are so private, you'll forget you're even sharing a building with other people. And BT wants to know where all the average looking girls (like herself) went to in college? About the Gap Girls Gap Girls is like an audio therapy session laced with laughter.
