    Daylight Savings and Catholic School Confessions

    We made it to Episode 10 and we are way too excited about it. 🎉 This week’s episode of Funny in the Fire is full of chaotic stories, questionable childhood decisions, and the usual mom-life reality checks. We kick things off with Brittany explaining the gourmet buffet her dog Milli apparently enjoyed, which included an emergency stash of Zofran, an EpiPen, Tylenol, and Klonopin (because why eat dog food when pharmaceuticals are available?). From there we spiral into:• Daylight Savings Time and why everyone needs to calm down because somehow the kids are completely unaffected.• Brittany discovering Katie went to Catholic school her entire life and has some wild stories to prove it.• School picture day outfits and why parents treated it like the Met Gala.• Katie attending a religious retreat where people confess their most embarrassing stories.• Brittany getting asked to leave a Catholic school dance for dancing a little too enthusiastically.• The absolutely unhinged trend of boys “pantsing” girls in middle school (why was this allowed?!).• Growing up, peer pressure, learning boundaries, and saying no to shots.• The strange moment in parenting when you stop calling your babies by their actual names.• Katie turning her sister’s turtlenecks into tube-top dresses.• And the discovery of BINGO LOCO, which Katie may or may not be doing for her birthday. Basically: childhood chaos, parenting chaos, and the realization that we all survived somehow. 🎧 Follow us on Instagram: @funnyinthefire, @brittanyfindsthefunny, and @regardingkatie_📩 Email your embarrassing stories to: funnyinthefire@gmail.com Because if you can laugh about it… you’re probably Funny in the Fire. 🔥

We discuss how excited we are that Diva Cup noticed us, the fine art of smuggling alcohol into the club, and how we confirmed our friendship via slutty Halloween costumes. In this episode, we’re also tackling: Anatomy 101: Why our kids insist on treating the family dog like a science experiment. The Mission: Katie’s attempt to stalk Craig Conover at the Home & Garden Show (did it work? You’ll have to listen). The Raccoon Story: Let’s just say, nature is not our friend.

    Postpartum Pit Stank, RSV Panic & Snowstorm Meltdowns

    This week on Funny in the Fire, we are truly… going THROUGH it. We kick things off with the kind of postpartum glow no one talks about — armpit stank that could clear a room — and somehow spiral straight into the anxiety Olympics featuring RSV in babies and daycare illnesses that just keep on giving. Katie’s aura ring is out here choosing violence, casually ruining her peace on a daily basis. Naturally, this leads us into a very honest (and slightly unhinged) chat about diva cups and the things no one prepared us for. Meanwhile, New Jersey got hit with a snowstorm and let’s just say… the kids handled it worse than we did (which is saying something). Between their complete lack of coordination and our own emotional meltdowns, it’s giving survival mode. We also unpack why warm weather = instant serotonin, Katie’s Traitors audition dreams, and a Should I Be Embarrassed? segment that quickly turns into verbal diarrhea from both of us — no thoughts, just oversharing. 🔥 Come for the chaos, stay because… honestly same. 📣 Follow & Connect: Make sure to follow us on Instagram:@funnyinthefire @brittanyfindsthefunny@regardingkatie_ Got a story or a “Should I Be Embarrassed?” moment? Email us at: funnyinthefire@gmail.com 👀 Next Week’s Teaser: Brittany discovers there are things she does not know… like raccoon anatomy. And yes, it’s as chaotic as it sounds.

    Bathing Suits, Babysitters on Vacation & Why I’m Not Traveling Until Middle School

    Bathing suit ads lie. Full stop.This episode spirals (naturally) from why models don’t need to be “sucked in,” to chasing kids at the beach in what feels like a wetsuit, to the universal fear of a rogue boob escaping mid-movement. There’s twerking (yes), vacation delusion, and the harsh reality that traveling with kids is just parenting… somewhere hotter. We get into wanting to move wherever you vacation, why hiring a babysitter on vacation feels illegal, the fantasy of a Florida podcast house (think Hype House but moms and emotional exhaustion), and Brittany officially announcing she’s not traveling again until the kids are in middle school. Also covered:– No kids at weddings (we said what we said)– Not sleeping when you’re away from your kids– Putting life on hold until the anxiety of XYZ passes– Clothing rental for work trips (hello, Nuuly)– And how bathing suits were simply not designed for moms who move It’s funny, honest, mildly unhinged, and painfully relatable. 👉 Follow us on Instagram:@funnyinthefire@brittanyfindsthefunny@regardingkatie_ 📩 Email us: funnyinthefire@gmail.com If you’ve ever packed for a trip and immediately wanted to cancel it—this one’s for you.

    Gobble Gobble Neck, Toddler Tantrums & Spiraling With Purpose

    In this episode of Funny in the Fire, things start off innocent enough with toddler school tantrums… and then immediately spiral (naturally).We unpack the dark humor of “if it’s your ticket, it’s your ticket,” why that thought is somehow both comforting and deeply unsettling, and how one spiral can quickly turn into another — especially when you spiral to help the original spiral. Make it make sense.From wanting to be rich (emotionally and financially), to neck Botox, the dreaded gobble-gobble, and asking ourselves if prevention is self-care or just anxiety with a budget — nothing is off limits. Katie shares how she met Cody (because love finds you when you least expect it… and sometimes when you’re not spiraling yet), we talk about using ChatGPT for literally everything, and Brittany brings back Should I Be Embarrassed? with a truly painful work moment that still keeps her up at night.It’s chaotic. It’s honest. It’s one long spiral — but at least we’re doing it together.

    Primal Pushing, Pilates & Absolutely Zero Poise

    In this episode of Funny in the Fire, Brittany and Katie start with good intentions (Pilates, wellness, poise) and immediately spiral into absolute chaos. We talk Pilates—what it promises vs. how feral it actually makes us feel—then somehow detour into destination weddings, Disney movies, and a very specific 2016 era trend that had us fully convinced we were thriving (spoiler: we were not). We also revisit where we actually were in life back then, what we thought adulthood would look like, and how wildly off that vision was. And because no episode is complete without public self-reflection, Katie brings a “Should I Be Embarrassed?” moment to the table… featuring a truly unforgettable mix-up of some very specific body parts. There is no recovery from this one. If you’ve ever tried to be graceful and instead chose primal chaos—this episode is for you. Laugh, cringe, and feel deeply seen.

    New Year, Same Chaos — Elmo Toilets, Fever Dreams & Flat Tummy Tea Lies

    We rang in the New Year the only way exhausted moms truly can… by doing absolutely nothing. In this episode, Brittany and Katie recap their very unglamorous New Year’s Eve, dive into the absolute disaster that is potty training (looking at you, Elmo potty), and unpack the wildest recurring dreams that make zero sense but feel way too real. We also bring back Hate or Relate, where we confess to promising our toddlers literally anything just to get them to sleep, and hit our favorite segment Should I Be Embarrassed? — featuring Brittany eating around the mold on her favorite orange because, well… motherhood. Plus, remember when Flat Tummy Tea was the solution to all life problems? Yeah, we go there too. Because nothing says fresh start like chaos, moldy fruit, and shattered expectations. Welcome back to the fire.

    We survived the holidays...barely

    January is the longest month of the year — especially when you’re six weeks postpartum, running on cold coffee, and trying to convince yourself that “new year, new you” doesn’t apply to sleep deprivation.In this episode, Brittany and Katie check in on the emotional rollercoaster of postpartum life — from adrenaline crashes and gaslighting yourself into optimism, to learning how to surrender to every feeling instead of forcing yourself into all-or-nothing thinking. They open up about the pressure to stay positive on social media, the fear of scaring pregnant moms with too much honesty, and why postpartum support groups can feel like actual lifesavers.Things take a nostalgic (and slightly unhinged) turn as they dive into childhood memories — Saved by the Bell car phones, old pregnancy apps, and Katie’s family VHS tapes that somehow include her five-year-old self being asked if OJ is guilty. They also talk sibling age gaps, the emotional debate over having more kids, and how marriage in the newborn stage looks a lot like whisper-fighting in the dark.Plus: NYC Christmas chaos, Rockettes crowds, Frosty’s “day club” dreams, French toast casserole survival hacks, Elf on the Shelf bribery, dogs eating entire advent calendars, and why laughing together might just be the most romantic thing left in early parenthood.Motherhood is messy, exhausting, nostalgic, hilarious, and wildly complicated — and somehow, we’re still standing.
