Sister Trip

We are just letting Rachel decide the episode titles from now on. So 2.53 it is! Anyway, our special guest, Tio (Renee's husband Tony) asked us a deeper question than we were expecting. It led to a pretty deep conversation about who we are as people and parents, implicit bias, and the importance of diversity. And of course, there are some shenanigans along the way. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

We might have started off a little rough, but this episode was a lot of fun to record. The four of us are really enjoying being Bills fans and share why we are. This is not your typical football conversation, but we have never been accused of being typical. Also, for context this episode was recorded on January 15, after the Bills/Dolphins playoff game. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

This is the second of two recordings from Mandee and Rachel's Mothers Day road trip. It is important to note that we discuss abuse, domestic violence and racism. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

Mandee and Rachel recently took a road trip together and did some recording in the car. In this episode, they talk about Amber and Johnny's court case and the use of mental health as a defense. Please note, we do share our opinions on her diagnosis, but we are not professionals. You can expect more conversations on these topics as we can't help ourselves. :-) Please note that they discuss abuse and mental health and some of the conversation may be triggering. Audio quality isn't ideal because of the sound of the car, but we still believe it is worth sharing. Thanks for listening. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

Last season Candy Jo, Mandee and Rachel talked about their combined six, failed marriages. This season, we invited Renee (#8) to join us. She is months away from celebrating her 15 wedding anniversary. With her FIRST AND ONLY husband!! How in the hell do they make it work? Rachel and Mandee sat down with Renee to find out. And maybe learn a thing or two....  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

We were all together for our weekly Sunday dinner so we decided to start recording our conversation. While this conversation does include Candy Jo who was visiting from out of town, it was pretty typical Sunday dinner conversation for us. Your welcome. Or I'm sorry. You decide! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

This season we wanted to add a little flare to the podcast and the only obvious way to do that was to rope Renee into joining us. Here's a sneak peak at what you can expect from her. As Gram Fey would say, we "ain't quite right."

Mandee puts a lot of time into editing, this is a peak behind the microphones that shows exactly why it is so hard for us to create coherent episodes. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

Sister Trip is all about the adventure. In this episode we share the shenanigans of a recent camping trip we took. Fun was had by all - or most - as we soon found out. The "Lorax" and a potential crime! And by crime I mean we assumed the worst without any evidence and had fun solving it. We hope you enjoy hearing about the trip and getting to know us a little better. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

There is a lot of controversy across the country and in our family. In this episode we discuss Dad's recent COVID diagnosis and the wedge forming in the family. Rachel was unavailable to record, so this one is a conversation between Candy Jo and Mandee. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

Obviously there were a lot of stories to tell about the places we lived and we couldn't possibly fit them all into one episode. So here are a few more of our stories, and hints at conversations to come. And please be sure to send us a message on Anchor if you shared these adventures with us. Except if you are one of the creepers that lived with us. We don't want to hear from you, you suck. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

By the time Candy Jo was 18 and left home, we had moved 10 times. The accommodations were less that stellar, but as you will hear, we sure made a lot of memories. So many in fact, that we had to save several for next week's episode, and yet we packed a lot into this one. Remember, you can leave us a voice message on Anchor, through our Sister Trip website or Facebook Messenger. If you were mentioned in the episode, we'd love to hear from you, reconnect, and share old stories. Let's talk soon! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

This was a hard one. We wanted to articulate the reason we began this podcast and what we hope to accomplish with it, both for ourselves and for our listeners. Hopefully this gives you a better understanding of who we are and why we are embarking on this journey.

Our Grandmother was everything to us. We decided to celebrate her birthday by recalling a few of our many favorite memories of her. If you knew Shirley, you knew she sold Avon and would do anything for her grandkids. After hearing our stories, you will wish you did, maybe even feel like you do. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

This episode picks up where Part 1 leaves off. More about recovery and changes to her personality. Also, how many times can Candy Jo say, "double vision"? Hint - don't make it a drinking game!

On November 22, 2007, Thanksgiving Day, Renee (sibling #8), her husband and Candy Jo's son were in a serious car accident. She had just graduated college and been married five months prior.

A little bit of everything. This episode begins with a few details of the trip that inspired the name of this podcast. It was supposed to be a test, but we thought we'd share some of it anyway. Just a glimpse of things to come as we try to figure out our flow. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support

This episode covers several events, but mostly our combined six marriages. We answer two main questions: "Why did you get married each time?" and "How'd that work out for you?" --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sister-trip/support
