    Passive aggressive moves are not woke, Scouting America though, is!

    Trump is back in the news more and it’s only just begun - this year is gonna be A LOT - do we share on social media like we did back in the Trump years? Is our opinionated era back or are we still exhausted from how we were? Essentially, the question is: to post or not to post? 

    TWL:
    Michelle is loving the Tom Brady Roast on Netflix
    Vicki is loving Nikki Glaser

    How do we approach friends with regret or concerns about our behavior? When we feel like something needs to be addressed, how do we do it with compassion and love? And then how do we respond with the same generosity - because we must.

    Support friends, support their endeavors. Vicki started a new podcast about her city - if you’d like to follow, find it wherever you get your podcasts: People of Vista

    Frustrations with your spouse - how long can / should we hold it in?

    Periods! Yes, they sync up.

    Michelle is a professional athlete now, have you heard?

    Peloton chats - we love Rebecca Kennedy! BUT Michelle didn’t always and we’re asking ourselves, what is it when our first instinct is to not like someone?? Is it really something we don’t like in ourselves? Is our envy? (Reminds us of our book club book: On Our Best Behavior by Elise Loehnen)

    Let’s talk about Heartstopper, the TV show! And about how important it is that we’re all having open conversations about sexuality, identity, relationships, allyship, friendship with our kids. Start early!

    TWL:
    Michelle is loving Maya Rudolph on Armchair Expert - so funny! Her show Loot too, check it out.
    Vicki is “loving” 3 Body Problem on Netflix

    This episode has it all. A classic example of the UMcast where we jump from topic to topic, thought to thought, without regard for well, anything really. It's the kind of hour you enjoy and then forget about entirely once it's done, but you're somehow happier, lighter, a better person after. 

    TWL: 
    Michelle is loving the BEST show ever: Love on the Spectrum
    Vicki is loving the BEST face lotions ever: Olay - the combo buys from Costco

    **A warning that we mention baby loss in the beginning of this episode.

    Right out of the gate, lots of sex talk - and surprise, Vicki gets super uncomfortable?

    Sharing our children’s accomplishments on the internet. Can we brag about our kids online? Should we? What stops or propels us to do so?

    THANK YOU for all the voicemails on last week’s show! We appreciate them. This leads us into…

    Tales from the drive-thru lines.
    Road rules - stay safe out there, friends!

    Loving our bodies - at what point, at what age can we just love our bodies as they are? Even when we have goals for change, can we love them through the process, through all of life’s changes? Let’s give it a try.

    Michelle came across a reel on instagram (it has since been deleted) about how women need to start prioritizing sex in their lives to maintain a clam, peaceful home environment. And to that, we say: YES.

    Let's discuss!

    Starbucks mornings with kids - do you or don’t you?

    Are you and your partner taking solo trips with friends? We think it’s very important to make time for our separate selves, even inside of a relationship/family.

    Vicki visited the land of Twilight, yes, Bella and Edward were there.
    Michelle will never tire of Alcatraz, never. We’re sharing some travel recs and reviews from the California coast and Olympic peninsula for ya!

    AirBNB communication can be hit or miss. And either way, in the end you have to submit a review. How honest are we being here?

    If you are dog sitting, yes, Michelle is spying on you. But turns out, it’s all good news!

    Uncensored Anonymous Question: How did Michelle move away from her religious and conservative upbringing? Can you do a deep dive on that?

    Well, if this question isn’t timely given our Easter holiday having just passed. This section includes an IRL audio file! Join Michelle on her Christ centered egg hunt! Fun!

    There is also a bit of “beat boxing” - We genuinely apologize. Like, truly.

    TWL:
    Vicki is STILL loving her Nixit menstrual disc
    Michelle is loving her Kevin Murphy (aka Kendall Roberts) dry shampoo

Like chatting with friends

Listening to Vicki and Michelle is now a staple of my weekly routine. As a mom of 3 young kids, the content is super relatable, interesting, and laugh out loud funny. Glad to be part of the Um Club!

Love this podcast!

Such a fun listen, I seriously look forward to the new episode each week!

My Voice Matters Too

Just because I may co-host this podcast, doesn’t mean I can’t take a moment to say how much I love this show of ours. It’s our weekly therapy and we get to connect with so many other people who we can help feel seen and be seen in return. And isn’t that what it’s all about? Being unapologetically ourselves, in our own unique glory, which in turn, isn’t actually all that different from each other. ❤️
