"It was the most unhinged 15 minutes I've ever witnessed in my life," recounts Christi in reference to "The Sandwich Incident". But the incident happened entirely off-screen! It's one of Christi's most cherished Dance Moms memories, one she has thought about monthly for over a decade! So on the first half of "Kiss or Get Off the Pot", come for Abby's insistence of making children do things they're uncomfortable with, stay for a classic behind the scenes Abby meltdown.The Select team is out this week so the production doesn't have to pay them, but Sarah H and Christy stick around to claim the top spot on the Pyramid. The rest of the placements seem arbitrary at best, Abby is mostly upset that the girls cried after coming in second. The moms point out their attitude probably had more to do with their teacher making a separate team to upstage them after they were on a long win streak.Abby announces they're going to be going head to head once again with Cathy at In10city Dance in Ohio. To spite Cathy she enlists the help of Gino, one of Cathy's former dancers, to perform a duet with Maddie. While the pairing was obviously designed with Maddie, Abby holds auditions for the duet to give the appearance of fairness, but ends up just insulting most of the girls until she arrives at Maddie anyways. Maddie does not like that Abby is insisting she kiss Gino for the performance as it'll be her first kiss, but Abby seems dead set on making it happen for some reason.The other thing Abby is dead set on is making it clear she was on Dancing with the Stars. Not only does she keep bringing it up, but she even themes the group dance around it! Quotes“Everyone was cracking up that you said these were all the books you read. I lied! I lied!" (01:32-1:43 | Christi & Kelly)“That was Kelly's favorite thing about Candy Apples. They would say Candy Apples and Kelly's eyes would light up. She'd go, 'Can we get beef Jerky?!'” (09:59-10:06 | Christi)“I'm so disappointed that 2012 Christi didn't say sloppy seconds. I need to go back and tell Abby she was picking up Cathy's sloppy seconds. That was a golden opportunity to use those words." (24:36-24:46 | Christi)“The children knew that Abby was crying over the sandwich." (45:34-45:37 | Christi)LinksSubscribe to us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC50aSBAYXH_9yU2YkKyXZ0w Subscribe to our Patreon: www.patreon.com/backtothebarreThank you to Ashley Jana for allowing us to use Electricity!!

This week we're pulling back the curtain on what really goes down at dance competitions. When the pressure's on, emotions can run high (like, really high), and suddenly moms become emotional buffers just trying to keep the peace. You're whispering calmly while your kid is spiraling because they haven't eaten enough and their hair is secured with 37 bobby pins digging into their scalp. One wrong word could send them over the edge. Somehow, through all the tension and tiptoeing, there are lessons in patience, resilience, and how to show up when it's hard. It's exhausting… but it's also kind of amazing.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

From Center Stage and web series like city.ballet and Strictly Ballet—featuring, among others, NYCB's own Mimi Staker and Alec Knight—to memoirs by legends like Margot Fonteyn, the dancers share the media that inspired their earliest interest in the art form, as well as all the pop moments they've enjoyed (and critiqued) since joining the company, like the "ballet core" fashion trend and the thing the movies most often get wrong (hint: it's all about the bun).

Watching our daughters compete in dance this past weekend got us thinking about the life lessons they're learning. They practice endlessly for a routine they only get one shot at, and they're often really tough on themselves. A lot of people have walked away from dance because of the coaching culture—the yelling, the idea that tough coaching is the only way to make kids listen. If we normalize it and don't push back, we're passing the torch on what's considered acceptable.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Instagram is failing kids. What happens when someone decides to walk away?   John Corella sits down with Lennon Torres to talk about her decision to quit Instagram and why she's pushing for stronger online protections. From cyberbullying to sextortion, social media isn't just a distraction. It's a real danger, especially for young queer individuals. Lennon shares the work she's doing with the HEAT Initiative to hold tech giants accountable and explains how platforms like Instagram and Apple could make simple changes to protect children, but choose not to.   This episode explores an idea that's central to Lennon's activism: Joy in Resistance. How do you stay hopeful when fighting an uphill battle? Why is choosing joy a powerful act of defiance? John and Lennon's conversation challenges listeners to rethink their relationship with social media and consider what real connection looks like in a world that profits from keeping us hooked.   Quotes “Part of our liberation and part of our fight is finding joy. And so much of these people that want to silence and quiet us don't get to take away our joy. And so the act of joy is a resistance. And so by being happy, by spreading that joy, and by reminding each other that we have each other to lean on, is in itself an act of resistance.” (10:42 | Lennon Torres) “If you had a 13-year-old son, would you give them a phone or give them an adult friend that you've never met before and put them in a room in your backyard and didn't check on them for 12 hours? Because that's what you're doing when you hand your kid a device.” (29:09 | Lennon Torres) “We have been taught by these platforms, brainwashed by these platforms, to think that in order to have all of the good, we have to have the bad. And we don't have to have the bad.” (40:48 | Lennon Torres) “We are at the beginning of that fight for child safety on big tech. These companies aren't going to do the right thing on their own, and we've seen it historically. Climate, the reason all of these big shareholder groups and these big companies are doing good for the environment now is not because they woke up one day and loved the trees. It's because they woke up one day and realized if they don't do good for the environment, their business will suffer. And we are at the beginning of that fight for children's safety on big tech.” (50:20 | Lennon Torres) “Connecting on social media is like having a meeting on enemy territory.” (01:02:29 | Lennon Torres)   Links www.protectchildrennotabuse.org https://mashable.com/article/quitting-instagram-meta-you-should-too Connect with Lennon Torres: linkedin.com/in/lennon-torres-325b791b4   Dance Dad with John Corella on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dancedadwithjohncorella/ John on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/john_corella/ Join Patreon for Free!

Get Season Two of Pillow Talk HERE: https://pillowtalkpod.com(Apologies little Bitchettes for the sound quality this week, working out some bugs!)"This is the 100th episode of Dance Moms. So if you're drinking, cheers to that!" and for Christi that's the first of many drinks on this week's episode as Abby's shenanigans results in another off-screen call to the attorney. But it's a rough week all around as not only does the ALDC have the threat of the incoming select team, not only are they competing against Studio Larkin who they're unlikely to best, but unfortunately this was the weak that Mrs. Miller passed away.Things get off to a rocky start during pyramid, which sees Nia slotted at the bottom for reasons Abby appears to make-up entirely. This doesn't sit well with Holly who continues to feel they're becoming Abby's replacement for the Hylands. Maddie also takes the top spot despite not performing as well as Chloe did last week. Not to be outdone in her Chloe hate however, Abby states that Chloe won't be joining the filming of Mackenzie's music video this week to practice on her solo. Except Chloe was there at the behest of the production, but Abby caused a scene that left Chloe in tears. Chloe didn't even get to practice her solo (which was also clearly meant to be a Paige solo), adding insult to injury.Melissa is also starting to feel the strain of the situation during the music video shoot, which just so happens to take place at the Ziegler household. Joining for the shoot are the ALDC Elite Competition Team and Melissa quickly becomes annoyed with Elite Mom Christy "with a Y". Their resulting spat ends with Melissa kicking the mom out, but what really happened?Quotes“Ok so Kell, I hate this episode. I don't cause I'm not on it." (09:37-09:41 | Christi & Kelly)“I'm going to give Abby a little bit of grace here. I know, hold on.” (11:59-12:03 | Christi)“Holly is not gonna look like an asshole fighting with Abby the week her mom dies!" (41:00-41:04 | Christi)“The moment Melissa fought with Chrysty at her house, she signed her name on the dotted line that they were going to be on the select team."

Get Season Two of Pillow Talk HERE: https://pillowtalkpod.com"Abby warns everybody that she might not be at the competition this weekend. Oh don't threaten me with a good time." Yes this week the ALDC gets a little vacation away from Abby, though it isn't under the best circumstances. Mrs. Miller's health is quickly declining and Abby needs to travel out to care for her mother in her final days. Before she heads out, however, she begins casting ALDC members for Mackenzie's music video. Of course not all is at it seems as the episode's edit leaves out the behind the scenes drama that Christi recalls truly pissing her off.In another fun turn of events, Abby removes Nia from the group dance. The reason? According to Abby there are still not enough costumes for the whole group because of Kelly, so one girl has to go! Outside of being an unlikely story, Holly is mad that Nia is being sidelined again. Abby argues it'll give Nia time to focus on her solo. Holly feels singled out and claims she isn't receiving support from the other moms, which leaves Christi a little confused.When the girls get to Ohio for competition, they find that with Abby not around the whole ordeal is a lot easier and perform quite well. The only drawback is their group performance of Bollywood and Vine is incredibly executed but fairly problematic. But will it be enough to get the ALDC their 13th straight victory?Quotes“I was cracking up that you texted me and were like this episode sucks. Kelly, every episode of Dance Moms sucks." (08:24-08:30 | Christi)“She's talking about winning 13 in a row. What do you need a new team for? You have winners you weirdo.” (20:06-20:12 | Christi)“That was probably the last time Abby was even remotely nice to Chloe?" (23:47-23:51 | Christi)“You've been gone, what? Since episode seven? This is episode 14? In seven episodes I think four or five of them have been awful for me."

Get Season Two of Pillow Talk HERE: https://pillowtalkpod.com"This is one of the worst week's I filmed Dance Moms, behind the scenes," remembers Christi. Everyone's point of no return for the show was different, but for Christi it was during "Decisions Decisions" that Abby finally pushed her too far. It's a week so excruciating that it still weighs heavily on both Christi and Brooke, though it did gift us one of Christi's most iconic bits of profanity laden ranting.Abby welcomes Kalani to the ALDC proper as a replacement for both of the Hylands, leaving Payton out for good despite having been an actual student of Abby's unlike Kalani and Payton placing second on the Pyramid! The only person who kept her from the top was Kelly, whose "mug shot" makes the Top of the Pyramid as behind the scenes the legal battle between Abby and Kelly is officially underway. To add to the drama, Abby insists the girls all wear white costumes for the group number this week that already own, but Kelly just so happens to have two of them and Abby leaves it up to the moms to get them back. When Christi pushes back it results in a a slew of F-bombs that Abby does not want to hear. But was there more to this outburst than meets the eye? According to Christi there is a lot the cameras didn't show this week, and a lot of it was pretty bad to warrant a call to her own attorney.Meanwhile Cathy is back with the routine she pulled from competition two weeks prior, now more confident it's in tip top shape to beat the ALDC. It concerns Abby enough that she has a talking to with the judges to make sure they know their place. But will the behind the scenes drama at the ALDC keep the team from their 12th consecutive win?Quotes“I mean it's trauma bonding. Yeah! God, how many people in the world have trauma because of Dance Moms? Well for everyone else it's their comfort show!" (12:51-13:01 | Christi & Kelly)“Yeah Kelly it's Bourbon Street, you don't touch things!” (20:40-20:43 | Christi)“We got a big Pyramid this week. Then we have a surprise guest! Is it you? That would be me!" (23:13-23:22 | Christi & Kelly)“Oh, how exciting we have marabou."

Get Season Two of Pillow Talk HERE: https://pillowtalkpod.com"Chloe is mortified. Just in case anybody is unclear about her face, she is mortified," explains Christi as this week's return to your regularly scheduled episode of Dance Moms is just as rough as it's always been. But on "Sister Showdown" things are especially dire for quite literally everybody, and that's pretty wild for a week where the girls take home all the top spots at competition! Maddie doesn't even make it out unscathed (tho she does in the final edit of the episode so tune-in for some tea).Abby still hasn't settled on a new team and welcomes Payton back into the fold. She even gets a spot on the Pyramid despite not being present at the previous competition, but Abby uses her placement to chastise Payton for crying in the dressing room on her last appearance. This causes Payton to cry and leave the room, leaving Leslie officially on the offensive against Abby this week. To let Payton prove herself, Abby makes her the lead of the group number "Lift You Up", inspired by the musical Kinky Boots. But between the garish costuming and iffy choreography, it's hard not to feel as though Abby is still setting Payton up to fail.For perhaps the first time ever, Abby gives solos to both Maddie and Mackenzie for a sister vs sister conflict. It's a lot of pressure for Mackenzie who has to suffer through Abby's constant comparisons between the two. Meanwhile Chloe takes the third solo, a contemporary called Follow You. With the Hylands gone the number of Abby's targets grows smaller, and Chloe is starting to feel the pressure to not end up on Abby's bad side.Quotes“Please know that nothing irritated Abby more than the fact that those kids kept winning." (22:11-22:16 | Christi)“Here's all I'm going to say. If any of the Dance Moms cast goes missing we'll only be missing for less than 24 hours. One of our fans will find us.” (34:49-34:56 | Christi)“It's crazy that like people love [Abby]. Who loves her?! Fans. Hmmm, they have bad taste." (50:40-50:48 | Christi & Kelly)“Leslie, I know we got into a fist fight in New Orleans. I couldn't have your back more here."

"I dislike Abby but that is no news for anyone who is watching," remarks Christi as Abby continues to prod in the hopes she will be the next to leave on "Nothing's Fair in Abbyville". But unfortunately for both of them Christi still has a season left in her, so Abby settles on belittling Kendall this week.Mackenzie and the Zieglers are in Los Angeles recording Mackenzie's first single. To fill the Maddie shaped hole int he group dance Abby holds a dance off between the girls that Kendall wins. And despite commenting what a great opportunity this position is for Kendall to prove her worth, Abby has no intention of letting Kendall actually take Maddie's place. In fact she desperately works to get Maddie back in time for competition, claiming she never actually promised Kendall the part... so what was the dance off for?Meanwhile Kira and Kalani continue to settle into the team dynamic. Kira worries that Abby is going to set her daughter up to compete with Maddie, but the moms point out that Kalani is so good that Abby would never dare pit her against Maddie. Any situation where Maddie might lose is strictly off limits. Kalani might be the ALDC's best dancer, but Abby didn't train her so she can't flex her too much.Kelly calls in to organize a lunch with Christi, whom production forces to invite the rest of the moms including Kalani. What will prove to be Kelly's final appearance on-screen is rather quaint as she's still happy to be off the team, despite how much the production wanted the situation to start drama (why else would you invite Kalani). Melissa is visibly uneasy though, wonder why!Quotes“I was gonna say what are you drinking? I'm not drinking anything except for like NyQuil." (09:11-09:15 | Christi)"There's nothing that brings energy and fun to the room quite like Abby Lee Miller, so have at ti." (14:50-14:56 | Christi)“Jill is not only wearing fur, she might be wearing what, in my mind, could be the most iconic piece of fur on Dance Moms. " (17:57-18:06 | Christi)“Mole again, mole gone. Mole here, mole there, mole everywhere.

"It felt like the show as we knew it was over, and it was!" Christi's prognosis certainly proved to be right, but on "Wingman Down" the rest of the ALDC acts like it's business as usual. Though there is a Kelly, Paige and Brooke shaped hole in the team you'd be hard pressed to tell anyone was upset over the matter. Kelly points out again that Melissa had some blame to take but Jill and Holly insist on trying to keep the peace.Abby welcomes Kira and Kalani onto the team as Kelly's replacement, stating that Kelly has been arrested (she wasn't) and is no longer welcome. Melissa tries to get the group started on the right foot and invites everyone over to he house for cheese and wine. The only absentee? Christi obviously! The show begins to present Christi as distant from the team, which is both partially true because she didn't want to pretend nothing had happened, and also heightened by the show's editing to imply it was worse than it really was.Meanwhile Holly is dedicated to making Nia's rare instance of having solo count, but Abby still won't give Nia the time of day. Instead Abby is out helping Mackenzie get set up to be Mac Z, singer and performer extraordinaire! When she does make time for Nia it's to tell her she's not being enough like Maddie. The problem boils over when Nia suffers a costuming mishap with her hat on stage, which not only bodes unwell for Nia but somehow Christi gets in trouble? It really is over!Quotes“I reached up to ger a cookie and all of a sudden I saw all this smoke. And I'm like what the fuck is on fire? It was you! It was me!" (09:32-09:39 | Christi & Kelly)"If Melissa had do it to Jill or Holly they wouldn't be feeling this way. They would be feeling exactly the way that we do." (28:38-28:46 | Christi)“This costume is beautiful. It's gorgeous... it's from a catalogue! Holly stop trying to be so nice!" (43:44-43:50 | Christi)“I met this sports psychologist this week. She's really sweet. She's a dance mom but also a sports psychologist and she told me that she literally uses Dance Moms clips as teaching tools of how to not to coach children."
