Holiday outings gone wrong? Always... Overthinking teacher gifts? We know what they want and got you covered... Random things we think about way too often (a.k.a. our Roman Empires)? You’re not alone... Or are you? Ours are weird...

Grab your coffee (or wine) and settle in—because although the holidays are SO magical, Santa is tired!!

​’Tis the season… for stomach bugs, holiday bribes, chaotic schedules, and wondering if we’re actually nailing motherhood or just winging it with peppermint-flavored caffeine.

In this episode, we dive into:

Winter sickness roulette: stomach bug or food poisoning? Why does every December come with a mystery plague?

The pre-Christmas shuffle: the events, the parties, the deadlines, and the ​random school themes that we could do without...

Holiday bribery 101: Santa is watching… but how many times do we have to say it before they actually listen?

Mom guilt whispers: Are we doing it right? Spoiler alert: Bad moms don’t even worry about being bad—so if you’re questioning it, you’re already winning.

Elf on the Shelf hacks: to move the elf or not to move the elf… get the kit, save your sanity.

Making memories vs forcing them: how do we strike the balance between magic and meltdown?

Grab your heated blanket, pour something warm (or strong)​.

In this episode, we cover all the important things moms everywhere are talking about...

Sports Etiquette, Girls’ Night Outs with “Friends” Trivia, where we tested our 90s knowledge and realize we might actually be Monica and Rachel after all.

Kelsey gives her official review of The National Club, the newest restaurant to hit downtown New Bedford — because yes, we’re classy like that (and no, we did not share our dessert).

Then it’s all things Christmas 2025 — from the chaos of hiding gifts and the price tag that makes us question our life choices, to how we really feel about wrapping (hint: any excuse for a party). We wrap things up — literally — with our family traditions, the moving of the infamous elf... no matter how crazy it gets, there’s always magic in the mess.
