Nancy Davis Reagan Part One

Ok. We're back! We know a 7 month hiatus wasn't ideal, but it had to happen. Now we're back discussing our girls in full. We start off by chatting about Nancy's confusing birthday and name. We discuss Nancy's career as an actress, which was just a placeholder for her aspiration of a housewife. Eventually Nancy takes charge of Ronald's campaign and gets them into the White House. Her humble beginnings wouldn't stop her from becoming a star. Also, we discuss the metaphorical choreography Doug is doing for Kamala and Claire's interior decorating. Also-when WAS Elyse's dad born?? We love ya!!

Rosalynn Smith Carter Part Three

In this final episode of our Rosalynn series, we discuss the legacy that Rosalynn continued far after her time in the White House. Knowing that this was recorded before her passing, we want to acknowledge the sadness her family is likely feeling which also acknowledging the enormous legacy she has left behind. More than ever, we feel grateful to be doing this project which highlights the work of these often forgotten women. Recorded this summer, and in true FLOTUS 4eva spirit, we are share this legacy with joy and laughter. Love to all the Carter's- love to Rosalynn. Enjoy 3

Rosalynn Smith Carter Part Two

In an absolutely unbelievable turn of events- WE'RE BACK. And no, before you think there is some amazing dramatic story about why we left, there really isn't one. But we apologize for the mid-lady escape. This week we bring you Part Two of our Rosalynn story. We discuss her time in the White House and her eager spirit to get things done in the way only an expert FLOTUS can. We also discuss all the things Claire and Elyse have done since March, all the albums Taylor Swift has put out recently and the absolute chaos the Kennedy's keep causing. HAPPY SUMMER.

Rosalynn Smith Carter Part 1

Ok! We're back with our first FLOTUS who is still alive!! This is big news, but our girl Roselyn also made her own space in the political sphere despite her humble beginnings in Plains, Georgia which Elyse and Claire approximate had 52 families in it when Roselyn grew up there. We discuss her meeting James Early (Jimmy). Their early courtship, moving back to Georgia to take care of the Peanut Farm and eventually becoming First Lady of Georgia. Also, we discuss Jimmy faking his time in the Navy and Roselyn's true distain for her husband. J/K, J/K- we LOVE their LOVE. And you!

Betty Ford Part Three

It breaks our hearts to say goodbye to Betty this week! But instead of focusing on that (it is almost Valentines day!) we'll focus on all the amazing things our girl did post White House. We discuss Betty's eventual stint in rehab and her drive to make rehab chic and fun for all. We talk about her continued activism with the ERA, abortion rights and one very exciting tag team with Maureen Reagan (Bonus Ep!) Mostly we fawn over how much we love Betty and what wonders she did for us all. Also, Claire and Elyse plan a trip to Michigan and buy coffee mugs with presidential pets on them. Tell someone you love them!! Love you!

Betty Ford Part Two

We're back! Betty Part Two. While our girl wasn't in the White House long, she makes a mark as a fierce supporter of Abortion Rights, the ERA, Prom, and King Sized Beds. We talk about how Betty broke the mold in terms of what a First Lady could say, do and be. We also discuss her continued battles with Tweedle Dee and Dum. And also how Susan is still our Queen. Claire and Elsie also proclaim that they may never see the sun again. Enjoy!

Betty Ford Part One

Happy New Year everybody! We are BACK. Ok. So yes, we did take a four month hiatus, but a lot happened to update you on. Also, we couldn't be more excited to be back with our girl Betty. We begin her journey to FLOTUS by talking about her time as a dancer, her first husband, the single girl montage of our dreams and finally meeting, falling in love and marrying Gerald Ford. We stop just before her time in the White House, but don't worry parts two and three are coming. Betty, you were never a Republican. Love you!!

The First Lady Recap: Episode10

Well, your girls finally did it. We finished out summer project of recapping Showtime's, The First Lady. In this finale episode we discuss the Betty Ford Center, the League of Nations, WWII, Michelle's horrible college roommate, and the darkness of 2017 (worse than 2016, spoiler alert) For the first time ever we take issue with Betty and her definition of dark times and addiction as Claire remembers the year 2015. This has been an amazing summer. We are taking September off to refocus on FLOTUS on the road and the next bunch of modern First Ladies as we continue to this project, which will likely go on until 2026. We hope you had an amazing summer!

There are too many not funny jokes and constant giggling. Also, holes in the research. It is surprising that hosts of an intellectual seeming topic seem to be so proudly ignorant about so much. I’m confused by this show.
Entertaining but has some historical inaccuracies

I am only in the early episodes so far while I enjoy the banter and dark humor (the running hypotheses that both Martha Washington and Martha Jefferson murdered their first husbands) - I’m already noticing big historical errors. In the episode about Thomas Jefferson’s wife and daughter, the hosts say that Jefferson wrote the US Constitution. Jefferson had nothing to do with the Constitution. The US Constitution is largely attributed to James Madison; Jefferson was still in France at the time of its creation and signing. There was also an implication in the Martha Washington episode that George had presidential aspirations, he did not. (See Mount Vernon website). Maybe things get more accurate in the later episodes?
