    Butt Slaps, Boy Mom Tears, & The Effing Cowboys

    The moms are FINALLY back together in studio, and things get a little sappy as Julie and Emily share some  full-blown #BoyMom moments.  Emily is learning that homecoming festivities might seem cheesy... until it's YOUR kid! Meanwhile, Julie navigates Ryder's student council elections and some good ol mom shaming moments from her kids. Plus- Emily is officially a working woman with a REAL office job (!!!) In Sports Skorts, the Cowboys are once again testing everyone's sanity, and Julie is concerned about Dak's mental state. The TMG Brewers are taking on Tampa Bay in the World Series, the Mavs season is here, and the Stars are doing just fine, thank you very much. Plus, did Tracy Wolfson's innocent little butt slap really deserve to turn the internet upside down? The moms have THOUGHTS. And Google's top trending Halloween costumes have us asking one very important question: Are we officially too old to know what any of this stuff is?! And why is Julie getting a wig? Boy mom tears, butt slap debates, and another week of Cowboys frustration. Just another day at The Mom Game!

    Less Pressure, More Play! The Sandlot League, Girls Trips, and Cowboys Failure

    Are people taking youth sports WAY too seriously? The answer is YES. Here on TMG we like finding people who are trying to do something about it.  This week, we're talking about how to bring the fun back to youth baseball with Andy Pendleton, founder of The Sandlot League! Andy shares how his unique approach to youth baseball is giving kids a chance to just PLAY, without all the pressure, expectations, and anxiety that can come with organized sports. Could this be exactly what youth sports need? But first, Julie is officially still on the struggle bus and trying to keep her mentals in check without tennis and pickleball, while Emily is fresh off a goofy girls' trip to Fredericksburg that was good for the soul! Julie also recaps her family's fall break getaway to Omni PGA Frisco, and we're reminded that sometimes a little break is exactly what everyone needs. In Sports Skorts, the Cowboys completely sh*t the Buccs bed, we find a little joy in watching Texas lose, and we're still cheering on our adopted MLB playoff team, the Milwaukee Brewers! Plus, over in What's On Your Feed, we may have discovered the most GENIUS PTA fundraising tactic of all time. Parents, you're going to want to hear this one. This Week on TMG: Julie's struggle bus without court sports Emily's Fredericksburg girls' trip and Julie's Omni PGA Frisco getaway Another Cowboys disaster and some college football fun The PTA fundraising idea every school needs to hear Andy Pendleton on The Sandlot League, sports anxiety, and making baseball fun for kids again Thank you as always to our amazing sponsors for making this week's show possible!

    Don’t Touch Our Free Chips & Salsa + Fall Sports!

    Julie and Emily are podcast raw dogging from home—no wine, just opinions. After an exciting Cowboys win, we've decided that CeeDee Lamb is fun. You know what else is fun? College football. Especially when our teams (Mizzou and Texas Tech) are rolling. In the MLB playoffs, the Brewers are officially our adopted playoff team...or should it be Cleveland!? They're both giving us plenty to cheer for. And after a long summer, hockey is officially BACK, baby! Plus, Jack Hughes was not pleased with an ESPN reporter, and we have thoughts…. We like to think we know when it’s a good time to make a joke, eh? Then we dive into why the dating world absolutely sucks, the Tony Romo–CBS conversation, and a potential crisis that has us deeply unwell: restaurants taking away free chips and salsa. You can take a lot of things from us, but leave the chips basket alone!!! All that and more on this week's episode of The Mom Game.

    Are We Overthinking Our Kids? (And WTF, Cowboys?)

    Are we over-analyzing and over-testing our kids? And when, if ever, should we start pushing them academically? With kids in 3rd,5th,7th,and 9th grade we look at this from all the angles. Is it better to get ahead of any potential issues or just “let it ride” and see how they turn out? Plus, a good vent about the Cowboys silly loss to the Ravens, a sad but predictable end to the Rangers season, and did we just get all in our feels about Justin Verlander’s retirement...on accident? And! Emily teases some new job news, the tweens have new Instagram poses, it’s time to rage on Rivals.com, and a debate over babysitter cancellation fees.

Plus, Emily word-vomits about a secret from her past , we dive into the Holly Rowe/Arch Manning drama and Sydney Sweeney vs. angry female athletes, Julie passionately defends cats, and apparently tennis people are horny?!

    State Fair Secrets, Corny Dogs, & the Mom Behind SSYS

    BONUS TMG! We’re back with two amazing moms who are building big things — and doing it their own way. First, Mallory Fitzsimmons, founder of viral fashion brand SSYS, joins us to share how she went from starting a business at home during COVID to building a full-scale fashion brand designed with moms like us in mind. We talk entrepreneurship, motherhood, taking risks and why Mallory was determined to build SSYS differently. Then… is that corny dogs we smell?! Karissa Condoianis, SVP of Public Relations for the State Fair of Texas, takes us behind the scenes of one of the biggest and most beloved events in Texas. We talk about what it takes to pull off the State Fair every year, the food we absolutely need to try, and the fair hacks every mom should know before heading to Fair Park. Fashion, food, motherhood and a whole lot of Texas — welcome to your bonus dose of The Mom Game!

    Mom Dreams, Football Season & an Unfortunate Surgery

    The kids are back in school — which naturally means THEY’RE SICK AGAIN. Julie is dealing with the back-to-school germs while Emily has some thoughts on those club volleyball schedules. We’re also pranking our kids with British accents before asking a surprisingly big question: Are moms so busy managing everyone else’s lives that we don’t have time to dream about our own anymore? When you’re juggling kids, work, sports, schedules and everything else, when do you stop and think about what YOU want next? Plus, college football is SO back, the NFL season is here, and the Rangers continue to middle. Then, What’s On Your Feed brings us Kim Kardashian’s baseball reality show and the tragic story of an influencer who died following a penis enlargement procedure. And finally, the TMG News Desk reveals the most searched slang words in Texas in 2026. Wine, queso, sports, mom dreams and questionable internet stories. Basically, a normal day at The Mom Game.
