She's watching some fun tv, new and old and has found GQ's recent cover model quite a surprise. No Marys were hurt in the making of this podcast.

Madge and Mary are back after a holiday hiatus and give away all the secrets behind the holiday photo shoots, the holiday movies getting us through and the lights . . . oh the lights. The gals are watching a lot of good stuff and have some great reads on the bedside tables. See the calm before the storm in action.
Madge and Mary are big fans of the number games, they have mentioned it repeatedly in the podcast and today they unpack enneagrams. What are they? Where do you find the info? What number am I? How do I unlearn this OMG it's everywhere!! ((Spoiler alert. You don't. Sorry not sorry)). We chat Chelsea Handler, Taylor Swift, enneagram art and a lot of other fun stuff we found behind the numbers. Listen. Share. Follow. Download. All that good stuff.
This was recorded pre-Thanksgiving and pre-Taylor Swift folklore movie release so obviously a LOT has gone down. What do the Stay-Puff Marshmallow Man, Beastie Boys, device shut down, a Marine base in California and a full out confession have in common? We touch on them all. Join us. Listen. Share. Subscribe. Follow @madgeandmary at the Instagram and on the Facebook.
This episode continues our music conversation with Madge's parents. We started with Episode 19 : Talking Music with Greg Sweeney, and this installment is his lovely wife and Madge's mom, Keke! While covering the same time period, we get a very different look at the music scene Keke was on. Get ready for more amazing musician stories and great conversation.
There's a lot of firsts in this episode! We have our first guests and our first two part episode. We have talked about music many times on Madge & Mary and Madge's parents wanted in. Bottom line. In this episode Madge's dad, Greg, weaves us through ten songs he loves complete with histories, crazy stories and multiple living situations. Can you count how many places Greg said he lived? If you like music, this episode is for you.
There is a foot massage story you HAVE to hear. You just have to. We are brutally honest about our first week in ww and it isn't all baked beans and potato salad but some of it is. We're bringing the laughs, the real DL on 90's hip hop and the cherry dump cake. xoxo
We have discussed WW in many of our episodes, but now we are back on the program! Listen to the honest lessons we have learned in our 18+ years together in the program and how our methods have evolved as much as the program itself. We will discuss how we lost a combined 120+ lbs and why we are back at it again. This is not your average weight loss podcast, fam. There are a lot more swears in this one. ;) ps. At the time of release, we are not being paid by ww to say any of this!
AUDIO UPDATED 10/6! Due to some audio newbie silly business, we have updated the audio from the original upload. Now you get two BONUS minutes about chewing gum and anxiety. You're welcome. ;) We aren't done talking about the chicken salad and nobody is even mad. Madge and Mary went on a lovely date, moustaches are discussed as well as the Cooler of Doom and Scholastic Book orders. So, yeah . . . we solve all the world's problems. Listen. Subscribe. Share.
Join us for our weekly recap! Mary has been out having high flying adventures. Madge is trying to convince Mary to watch The Masked Singer this season. Listen in as we discuss how boots led to a 19 year marriage and more about boots than you wanted. The obsession is real. Keep listening for the highlighters that aren’t a bright spot and the disappointment that ensues and then of course . . . our usual ending.
We are listening to lots of stuff. We still have folklore in our heads. And other stuff too. Podcasts. Learning Mary the InstaPot. Financial goals. New clothes. Winter uniforms. Phone case obsession. It was a good week.
Are you ready for it?! This is the Taylor Swift folklore podcast you've been waiting for and OF COURSE it's episode 13. Madge is die-hard obsessed and Mary is a new fan feeling appropriately excited about the surprise album. Listen to their chat about everything from betty being the perfect name for a dog to the cow mooing that just HAS to be Taylor speaking DIRECTLY to Mary. See the album through the eyes of a couple of 40-something Swifties and have a few laughs while they spin about the lyrical genius that is Taylor Swift's folklore. (Madge got chills just saying that) ps. We had a marvelous time. ;)
After a month hiatus, Madge and Mary come back deep in the throes of allergy season to catch you up on their shenanigans. They gab about Mary's Mask Collection, Madge's new favorite brand of sunglasses (this one could surprise you), the weird social acceptances of coffee and of course, plenty of laughs and swears.
Two different Taylors are discussed on this week's episode as well as a lengthy watch list and an intro conversation about our obsession with numbers and fortune cookies. If nothing else, tune in for a spectacularly silly and effective way to wash things with something you probably have in your kitchen. It's NOT baking soda, promise. Come for the honesty, stay for the laughs.
So many things to cover this week! We love new bracelets, we chat about the new mistress at Madge's house, getting some sanitizing help, Mary's new movie plan and Madge brought a prop that sparks LOTS of conversation.
