Two moms. Zero filter. Tanya and Sarah met on the Hillary Clinton campaign - before marriage, before kids - bonding over spicy margaritas and campaign chaos. A decade later, a few babies in and some political burnout behind them, they're still deep in the madness of modern politics… and now the messiness of motherhood too. They couldn't find a space that spoke to politically engaged moms overwhelmed by today's extremes - so they created one.

    Governor Jared Polis on Trump Tantrums, Tina Peters, and Haunted Mansions

    This week, Sarah and Tanya are getting into the spooky season with a very special guest: Colorado Governor Jared Polis. They kick things off with daycare drama, the invisible mental load of childcare, how the Skylight Calendar changed their lives, and their take on the Alix Earle documentary. Then the Governor joins for rapid fire, covering Scrabble, League of Legends with his husband Marlon, and rock tumbling, followed by a tour of Colorado's haunted history: the Governor's Mansion's playful ghost, the Stanley Hotel, Cheesman Park, and what's really under DIA. In Pardon My Politics, he explains why he commuted Tina Peters' sentence, whether the President can learn to disagree better, and why he's more worried about "socialism on the right." In Make It Make Sense, they dig into free full-day kindergarten, universal preschool, paid family leave, free youth therapy, and his social media bill veto. Finally, they wrap up with his last months in office, his legacy, his advice for the next governor, and a push to get out and vote on November 3.

    Toddler Tips, Child Care & a Trip to Yesteryear

    This week, Tanya and Sarah are going back to yesteryear. They kick things off with the cuteness of toddlers, the eternal struggle of the ponytail (and the solutions that actually work), and all things pop culture, from Instagram to the latest TV shows. Then, in a special Momarchy book club segment, they dive into Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke and unpack the book's exploration of tradwives, politics, raising kids in the age of social media, and homeschooling. They also dig into the federal Child Care and Development Fund and what's included in the draft. Finally, they wrap things up with Ask a Millennial Mom: Is there anything from the 1800s you'd bring into your modern life to make it better?   Meet the Women Behind the Mic   Tanya Nathan is a political campaign and communications strategist with over a decade of experience in progressive campaigns and advocacy.

    Moms Gone Wild: Nudity, Politics & Pumpkin Spice

    This week, Sarah and Tanya are diving into the parenting debates and fall hot takes taking over our feeds. First up: the "naked mom" debate and whether casual household nudity is about body positivity or privacy and boundaries. Then, we're talking about the Sunshine Protection Act and whether we really need to keep changing the clocks twice a year - especially with kids. On Pardon My Politics, we're breaking down Trump Accounts, before wrapping things up with a fall edition of Hot or Not, from apple picking to the never-ending school fundraiser fatigue.

    The Boob Grab, the Ordinary Kid & the End of Summer

    This week, Sarah and Tanya are talking about the Gen Z pose taking over your FYP - the "Breast Rest," aka the boob grab - and whether it's just the new version of the millennial teapot pose. They also dig into the quiet joy of raising "ordinary" kids and push back on the pressure to constantly optimize childhood, especially when the world already feels overwhelming enough. Plus, they take on The Everymom's list of 25 end-of-summer family activities and rate them all in a round of Hot or Not.   Meet the Women Behind the Mic   Tanya Nathan is a political campaign and communications strategist with over a decade of experience in progressive campaigns and advocacy.

    Not Red, Not Blue: Lauren Pinkston on Raising Kids and Running for Governor as an Independent

    This week, we're joined by Lauren Pinkston, a 7th-generation Tennessean, former university professor, and independent candidate for Governor of Tennessee. After spending years working in human trafficking prevention and community development around the world, Lauren returned home determined to break the two-party gridlock, running under the banner "Not Red, Not Blue, Just You." She's also a wife and mom of four, including a daughter adopted from Uganda, and she's raising her kids in the middle of a campaign most people said couldn't be won. We talk about why she's running as an independent in a deep-red state, what she's learned watching democracy up close in places like Laos and Uganda, and how she balances motherhood with a statewide campaign. Plus, we get into Pardon My Politics for the questions everyone's afraid to ask, and DGAF for the confessions no one expects from a gubernatorial candidate. Whether you're a lifelong Tennessean or just tired of choosing between two extremes, this episode is a refreshingly honest look at what it means to lead, and parent, without picking a team.   Learn more about Lauren Pinkston and her campaign at https://www.pinkstonfortn.com/   Meet the Women Behind the Mic   Tanya Nathan is a political campaign and communications strategist with over a decade of experience in progressive campaigns and advocacy.

    The Girlboss Is Dead, But the Five-Minute Face Lives On

    This week, Sarah and Tanya talk vaccines and politics, the rise and fall of the girlboss, and whether women are being asked to do it all while making it look effortless. They also dive into the millennial mom makeup routine - from the five-minute face and "no-makeup makeup" to embracing makeup as a little ritual just for yourself.

    Postpartum, Parasitic Diarrhea & Poor Outfit Choices

    This week, Tanya and Sarah are going deep on the things nobody really prepares you for - from the wild reality of postpartum life to the serious conversations that deserve more attention. They talk candidly about postpartum psychosis, what it can look like, and the importance of actually checking in on new moms, especially during those hazy early weeks. They also unpack the Lindsay Clancy murder trial and the difficult questions it raises around postpartum mental health. Then, they get into a conversation about parasitic diarrhea and what cuts to public health agencies could mean for families. Finally, they lighten things up with a round of Hot or Not: What Not to Wear Edition. It's a conversation that's equal parts honest, eye-opening, and unfiltered - and, as always, ends with a little fun.   Meet the Women Behind the Mic   Tanya Nathan is a political campaign and communications strategist with over a decade of experience in progressive campaigns and advocacy.
