    Prince Fielder! and the Queso Crow

    It’s Prince!! Former Texas Ranger and MLB All-Star Prince Fielder joins The Mom Game, and we’re talking a whole lot more than baseball. But first — Julie is officially on the IL with a broken wrist, Emily is finding her thrill in cleaning, and somehow we have a Sports Skorts story involving a 49ers owner and a trailer park prostitute. Just a normal week around here! Plus, a Cowboys rookie has us feeling inspired, the Rangers remain aggressively middling, and CeeDee Lamb gets robbed. Then Prince Fielder joins the show! Prince tells us what life after baseball looks like (spoiler: there’s a surprising amount of tennis), what it’s like coaching kids when you played the game at the highest level, and how his perspective on parenting has changed over the years. We get into raising kids around baseball, parenting while traveling as a professional athlete, how youth sports have changed since Prince was coming up, and the advice he has for both kids who dream of playing baseball AND their parents. And since Emily and Prince go back to his Texas Rangers days, we obviously must revisit the clubhouse prank wars, a few embarrassing stories, and what Prince remembers most about his time in Texas. Baseball, parenting, tennis, broken wrists and trailer park prostitutes. A little something for everyone. Thank you as always to our amazing sponsors for making this week's show possible!

    Middle Aged and Out of F’s

    Is the secret to surviving middle age simply surrounding yourself with people who don’t give an F? Because Julie and Emily may have cracked the code. This week on The Mom Game, we’re talking about why being middle aged kinda sucks, Emily has BEEF with Netflix profiles, Julie has an allergic eye situation, and Ryder has officially gone motorized. What could possibly go wrong?! In Sports Skorts, Von Miller is a Dallas Cowboy, the Mavs and Stars may have finally made up, and the Rangers have found themselves back in painfully familiar .500 territory. Plus — 7U ELITE TRAVEL BALL?! C’mon, man. The Youth Sports train is completely out of control and while it’s sadly normal- we still need to vent. We also take a more serious turn to reflect on the heartbreaking death of Hayden Panettiere at just 36 years old, her life and career, and why the news hit us so hard. And apparently some married couples swear that living in separate homes is the key to staying happily married. Are they onto something? Then Sarah Duggan, VP of Marketing at American Home Shield/Frontdoor Inc., joins us to talk about balancing a big career with mom life, what a home warranty actually does, and the moments when AHS can seriously save the day. Middle age, marriage, motherhood, sports, and broken appliances. Basically, we cover it all.   Thank you as always to our amazing sponsors for making this week's show possible!   Gateway GMC Coppola Wine AHS - get 20%* off Braintopia - 15% off brain map Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Back to School & a Group Text Intervention

    TMG Therapy is back in session! It’s Day 2 of school and Emily is… wait for it… already on the verge of a mental breakdown. Why are there SO MANY group chats, apps, emails, hearts, likes, notifications, and ridiculous questions?! We’re talking through all the back-to-school madness, mom anxiety, and how to keep the chaos from taking over. Hint: maybe focus on the kids and step away from the texts. Then, just when we thought parenting couldn’t get more awkward… PUBERTY. What are we supposed to do with this?! We have no idea, but we promise to make you laugh—and hopefully feel a little better—about this very weird stage of parenting. Plus, are millennials really abandoning their boomer parents? And in an unexpected plot twist… we’re talking about how much we love reading books. Back to school, group text intervention, puberty and generational drama. TMG Therapy is officially in session.   Thanks again to our amazing sponsors for making this week's show possible!

    Summer Lovin', Happened So Fast

    Welp, time to wipe the dust off those alarm clocks as summer is nearing its end and we are actually… kind of sad? But before we start school- a couple last minute trips!   Has Emily mastered the art of traveling with kids? And what do our families do when law enforcement is asking questions on a highway or at the border? Hint: They embarrass us.   Plus- serious family business to attend to as Henry McCoy has gotten his driver’s permit… and Emily is his driving instructor. Pray for everyone involved.   In sports, Dak has his shirts and sights set on a Super Bowl, the Rangers are struggly again and on the other side of the trade deadline, and Romo is being replaced by JJ Watt?   Also- what is this about majoring in influencing at college? And do kids even need college anymore?   Then- we are joined by the owner of Dallas Water Doctor, Zack Plunkett- who reveals what’s really in that Dallas tap water that we’re drinking. (cringe face)   All that and more on this week's episode!

    Julie’s Back, Romo’s Mess & Navigating Grief with Ryanne Saucier

    Julie is back from Canada, Jasmine is filling in while Emily celebrates her niece's wedding, and there's plenty to catch up on! Julie shares some observations from north of the border that have her questioning whether Americans should be composting more, taking our shoes off at the door, and maybe slowing down just a bit. Plus, being in Canada during the latest tariff headlines made for some interesting conversations. In Sports Skorts, the ladies discuss Tony Romo's rough week (bless his heart), Jason Robertson's back with the Stars for now, and Cowboys training camp is back too - are we feeling yeh or meh? Then, we're joined by Ryanne Saucier, Vice President of Legal Affairs for FOX Television Stations and host of the How Do I Do This? podcast. After unexpectedly losing her mother, Ryanne felt called to help others navigate life's biggest changes with honesty, compassion, and practical advice. Whether you're balancing work and family, walking through grief, or simply trying to figure out life one day at a time, this conversation is one you won't want to miss.

    Two Girls, One Bottle...Of Wine

    Ever wonder what's really going on behind the scenes at The Mom Game? This week, we're putting our producer extraordinaire, Jasmine, in the hot seat so you can finally get to know the woman who somehow keeps this train on the tracks... most of the time. We're talking about the random tabs permanently open in our brains, pouring a little wine, swapping stories, and—per usual—watching the wheels slowly (and hilariously) come off. It's unfiltered, unpredictable—just like we like it!

    When Julie Is Away, Jasmine Will Play

    Julie is north of the border, so Jasmine is pinch hitting and reminding Emily what summer was like before kids. Apparently t’s glorious, by the way. And don’t look now, but the Rangers are in first place at the All Star Break…so much for middling. The girls are already missing the wholesomeness of the World Cup, but thankfully there’s a chick who has developed “the ick” because her boyfriend eats too many chips to distract them. And if you need some drama, a San Antonio woman has put the old adage “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned” to the test, and the ladies sound off.   Gateway GMC Coppola Wine AHS - Get 20%* off Texas Live!

    JusT&T Moms

    July is here! The World Cup is still top of mind and we are STILL scavenging for Travis & Taylor wedding details. Please Taylor, give us SOMETHING! Emily details a very rare trip to Target, we talk adult group trips (who pays for what?), and we also cover a very important topic: mom underwear. We're also wondering: are children growing up too fast? After seeing Toy Story 5, Julie has some reflections on the toys vs. tech world we are living in! All that and more on this week's show!
