The Anyway Pod

This week on Anyway...We ask the question, what is dating your husband like?We grab our bag of rotisserie chicken and sit down to chat date night ideas. We trade our leave a cart phase for our take a cart phase. Then, our husbands age up and we hurt our own feelings about it. So, if you too think Ali should be a “favorite things” influencer, then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway...We ask the question, what have you invented that was already invented?We relate to the OG curling mom who just wanted her kids to play outside AND help around the house with a broom every once in a while. We were split on how appealing it is to have a banana themed birthday. Then, we ask someone to unplug us and plug us back in or give us a factory reset. So, if you too could use a personal assistant, then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you.

This week on Anyway, we ask the question, you got any parenting wins? We use this podcast as our personal parenting therapy session while we also ask how do we get parenting extra credit? We celebrate amazing murdery short stories and the community that is helping us raise our kiddos. Then, we get real about parents always having favorites. So, if you have ever said "have you seen Cooper?" Then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway...We ask the question, what words would you redefine? We rewire our brains in order to be patriotic but require a four party system. We feel our faces melt and our teeth stick together with just one bite of a Gusher. Then we ask our bodies to give us grace even though we redefined old cause we aren't old. So, if you too hide that first sip of a fridge cigarette from everyone then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway, we ask the question What were you most proud of in 2025? We resolve once again to not resolve anything this coming year. But we will shove our proud moments into a cake to celebrate all of our quitting from last year. Then, we lag wrestle that son of a Thomas Kinkade for showing us the dark side of puzzling. So, if you too want to say Bye 67 in the new year then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway...We ask the question, how do you build community? We put down roots and really keep them planted until we have to move them. We learn to say no to the wrong things because who has time for that. But then we realize that we keep the friends who make fun of us for hitting a literal and figurative wall. So, if your besties are the ones that you talk to the least on the phone but the most in sharing instagram reels, then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway...We ask the question, what millennial skill is no longer useful to you? We burn a CD, rewind a mixed tape, and watch a VHS as we travel back to the past. We pass a fortune teller note that spilled tea we eavesdropped on from our corded home phone. And then we print out our Mapquest directions and head home for the holidays. So, if you too were born in the 1900s, then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway...We ask the question, What are you unthankful for?We loathe NovemBOO with its cold temps and early onset seasonal depression. We rage against the machine when we have to do a crossword in the bathroom because the internet doesn't work. And later, we gaslight our family again because of our forgetful type b personalities. So if you're succeeding at failing up in life, then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway, we ask the question, how do you protect the family?We whisper "I protect the family" by driving 30 extra miles to save 10 cents on gas. We watch zombie shows to literally protect the family from the apocalypse. We protect the family by protecting the vibe with our girl power playlist. And later, we tell our husbands "you have to protect the family" because we can't listen to our kid's halloween costume one more time. So if you've shopped the random aisle at Aldi, then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway, we ask what are your Micro Regrets? We contemplate cross-stitching our books on a shirt but just keep swiping, we regret knowing what 6 7 is but not being naked instead of doing laundry. And later, we say "what's up baby girl" with the confidence of a 12 year old Harper. So if you are here for a good time but not a long time, then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway...We ask the question, What are you doing with a forced day off? We buy hiking boots when we meant to by Gondola shoes. We say "I needed this" and its just a starburst on vacation. And late, we step into our truth that it may not be perimenopause, we may just be witches. So, if you can make every hobby your whole personality, then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway, we ask the question What are you NOT doing in your 40s? We are NOT skipping the dentist or even dessert and definitely NOT skipping stretching before, well, anything. We're certainly NOT looking in the mirror with 25 mugs and saying "Ok, Pam". And later, we're NOT wasting our time on any bad vibes. So if you've ever DNFed a book about two serial killers falling in love then you are in the right place and we're happy to have you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Anyway...We ask the question, How are you thriving and how are you just surviving? We overvolunteer, lie to a stranger, and call our gelato man.
