    Loud Mouths, Late Fees, and Leggings, Oh My!

    This week, Mo is coming for loud girls’ trip offenders on planes, while Angie is taking on legging companies that apparently think we all want to see everything. Then Mo asks the question we’ve ALL been waiting for: if the doctor’s office can charge us for being late, shouldn’t we get a discount when THEY are running behind? Fair is fair! Angie shares the things that would immediately fix her mood (spoiler: uninterrupted sleep, massages, and a clean house she didn’t have to clean are high on the list). Finally, it’s time for This or That, where Angie puts Mo’s fashion opinions to the test. Skinny jeans or wide-leg? The stakes are high. The opinions are strong. The pettiness is always free.

Listener and Angie's friend Jordan brings us some premium neighborhood pettiness involving a carport approval standoff and a fence that apparently has boundary issues of its own.

Finally, Angie declares war on pumpkin spice lattes, and we find out whether she’d rather be too blunt or too sensitive in this week's This or That. Come for the petty, stay for the short and sweet!

    Mommy and Daddy Can’t Save you During Soccer, Other Life Lessons, and More Scandalous 80’s Music Lyrics

    Description: This week on Short, Sweet, and Petty, Mo is PETTY about parents who haven’t taught their kids to handle things when they go wrong on the soccer field and about people who make commitments, like being a team manager, and then apparently forget what the word commitment means. Angie has her own grievance: fast fashion companies that somehow make the exact same item in different colors fit like completely different articles of clothing. Then Mo makes a case for letting go of the quest for a perfect life and embracing the imperfections, the messiness, and the reality of just being yourself. Angie takes us in a very different direction by revisiting the scandalous lyrics we somehow listened to as children and asks the very important question: WHAT WERE THEY LETTING US LISTEN TO?! Then we bring it home with THIS OR THAT: ’90s and 2000s girl group edition. En Vogue, TLC, and Salt-N-Pepa go head to head as Mo is forced to choose her favorites. Because apparently we are finally addressing the important issues.

    Mom Is Back, and So Are Angie’s First World Problems!

    Angie and Mo’s Mom is back, and apparently so is everyone’s ability to find something to complain about. This week, Mom has a grievance about people, including herself, who repeat themselves in converations, Mo is slowly losing her mind over a coworker who clears their throat ALL. DAY. LONG, and Angie has a first class, first world problem involving an overhead bin, a tiny backpack, and one very special beeyotch. Then Angie, Mo and mom get into their sweet takes (yes, really). Mom talks about loving family time, both together and one on one.  Mo reflects on how weird and wonderful it is watching your kids grow into actual people with their own creativity and personalities. And Angie discovers a new favorite word: lalochezia. Naturally, she has already had a personal experience with it with that beeyotch in first class. Then, in This or That, Mom and Angie face some truly riveting choices: spend an entire day with an annoying person or someone who answers “I don’t know” to everything? Get caught dramatically singing in the car or talking to yourself in public? And, most importantly, reveal the last 10 photos on your phone or your last 10 text messages? It’s family time. It’s petty. It’s sweet. And apparently, it’s educational.

    Episode 15: Jolie Has Entered the Chat!

    We’ve got a special guest in the studio! For Episode 15, Mo’s daughter Jolie joins Short, Sweet, and Petty Pod to give us the Gen Z perspective—and, naturally, bring some new material to the petty table. Jolie’s petty grievance: people insisting she said something she absolutely did NOT say. Mo is annoyed by the weirdly sexist vibes of the “compliment circle” on a friend’s daughter’s girls’ soccer team, while Angie has a bone to pick with bike theft on college campuses. In the Sweet segment, Jolie explains why she’s suddenly taking approximately 4,000 selfies now that she has cute hazel contacts. Mo talks about finally seeing TLC, En Vogue and Salt-N-Pepa live—and why the concert was amazing despite sound quality that left a LOT to be desired. Angie shares the “Overheard” Instagram account gives us alternatives to LOL - our favorite it BTUIT (“Bring This Up in Therapy”). Then it’s This or That with Jolie: volleyball, senior year, and the questions everyone asks when you’re the only daughter. Three women. But only one Jolie. Oh, and plenty of petty.

    Bathroom Etiquette Part Deux, Movie Nostalgia, Personality Green and Red Flags, and Women of a Certain Age

    This week on Short, Sweet, and Petty, we’re covering a little bit of everything—from people having full-blown, very inappropriate phone conversations in the bathroom stalls at work to the absolute chaos of college parent Facebook groups. Then Mo gets a little nostalgic remembering the stupid comedies she loved watching with her cousin, who recently passed away, while Angie gets into the green flags and red flags supposedly hiding in your personality based on your birth month. (Because apparently we can blame our behavior on our birth month now.) Then it’s This or That: Women of a Certain Age Edition: gray hair or dye it ’til you die, look younger or feel younger, look amazing in every picture or never take another awkward photo again, and a spotless house or perfectly organized house. Petty opinions. Sweet memories. Questionable personality assessments. And the eternal struggle of figuring out what the hell we’re supposed to care about at this age. Come hang out with us.

    Episode 13 is here, and apparently being sisters does NOT mean Angie and Mo think alike! 😂

    Mo kicks things off with a petty grievance against movies that somehow exist but cannot be streamed ANYWHERE. Seriously… where did all these movies go?! Angie has her own GPS-related grievance after discovering that apparently even lakes can get a rebrand.  Then Angie and Mo tried something new: the viral “Don’t Say the Same Word” challenge. Angie and Mo  only matched 3 out of 10 times. So much for sister telepathy. 😂 Angie is absolutely obsessed with her Alfred and Lu “Put This on My Husband’s Tab” sweatshirt — and honestly, that tracks.  Angie and Mo wrap things up with a sister-themed round of This or That: Which Sister Would Do This? Find out which one of us is more likely to do what… and prepare to learn just how differently two sisters can think! Remember: life is SHORT, be SWEET if you want, but always stay PETTY, my friends! 💅

    The Petty Apple Doesn’t Fall Far From the Tree and Who’s the Favorite Daughter

    Angie and Mo are joined by their first guest - their Mom - for a very special episode recorded around Angie’s college drop-off weekend in East Lansing! But don’t worry— Angie and Mo still talked all their normal nonsense! Their mom starts off with a petty grievance filed against people who miss deadlines and makes her position very clear: a deadline is a deadline, people. No exceptions. Angie files a grievance against men who apparently forget how to use airplane bathrooms, while Mo looks inward and realizes she may need to stop expecting every sports parent to have the same level of experience as she does. In the Sweet segment, Mo asks the important question: what kind of vacation friend are you? The one who wants to exercise, dance, listen to music, work… or sleep the entire trip away? Meanwhile, Angie shares all the feelings and chaos that come with moving your kid into college. And in their lightning This or That? round, Angie puts Mom to the test trying to figure out who’s the favorite daughter, then Mo digs a little deeper, asking Mom questions like whether she’d rather have dinner with her past self or future self. It’s family, petty grievances, college drop-offs, questionable airplane behavior, vacation personalities, and Mom getting the last word—which, honestly, feels exactly right. Remember - life is short, be sweet if you want, but always stay petty, my friends.
