On this episode of ‘Geriatric' Mamas, we're diving deep into all things motherhood—navigating the wild ride of parenting while trying to keep your sanity intact.

The Hit List nears completion after 5 long years of waiting on this episode of AniMaysterpiece.  AMNAM presents Kill Bill: Volume 2 (2004) where secrets are revealed, all during stylish heated bouts of Kung-Fu. With the bloody Bride revving up her continued hunt for revenge no one is safe. A few members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad linger full of regrets and glory long since gone. However, that doesn't mean it will be a simple drive to the finish line. We will have to avoid being buried alive, black mambas hiding in suitcases, and even a Superman origin story or two. Sorry it took this long, but if you are still sore about it just remember to rate, review, and subscribe.

In this heartfelt and powerful episode of The Natural Birth Podcast, I'm offering you a special gift in honor of Mother's Day.

Let's talk about money — with compassion, clarity, and zero judgment.In this solo episode, I'm breaking down one of the most common struggles I see with women entrepreneurs (especially mamas just starting out): not feeling confident or organized when it comes to the money side of your business. Whether you're not making money yet, not tracking your income, or not paying yourself — this episode is here to help you shift from shame to empowerment.After more than a decade of coaching women entrepreneurs, I've noticed that financial clarity and confidence aren't built overnight — but they are learnable. You don't need to be a numbers nerd or love spreadsheets. You just need to start.So if you've ever said, “I'm just not good with money” — grab a notebook, tune in, and let's change that narrative together.

It's got a catchy melody but also hints at a desire for something more than the daily grind."Monday, Monday" by The Mamas & the Papas: This sunshine pop tune, despite its title, carries a touch of melancholy. It speaks to the bittersweet feeling of Monday arriving and the weekend fading into memory.Grandpa Bill Asks:Thinking about these two very different "Monday" songs, what personal rituals or mindset shifts help you transition from the weekend energy into the weekday flow?Both songs touch on the experience of Monday, but with different vibes. What aspects of your own well-being – mental, emotional, or even physical – do you find are most affected by the arrival of a new week, and how do you nurture those areas?Grandpa Bill Asks What's Your MOOD MUSIC:

His best friend and gang leader, Kaneda, joins an underground resistant movement in hopes of rescuing him. Meanwhile, Tetsuo starts developing psychic powers of his own. Corrupted by his new abilities, Tetsuo rampages across the city in order to free and confront the fabled esper Akira.

In April 1972, Wolfman Jack hosted his final show on XERB, the legendary Tijuana border blaster that launched him into the atmosphere and onto American culture. He began nine years earlier on XERF in Ciudad Acuna, Mexico, right across the border from Del Rio, Texas. Did you know that until his grand unveiling in the 1973 coming-of-age classic “American Graffiti,” directed by George Lucas, nobody knew who he was, what he looked like or even his ethnicity? In his latest article for the Strange Brew, author Scott G. Shea peels back the layers of his incredible rise to fame and separates fact from fiction in this unbelievable tale of arguably the greatest disk jockey of all time. I hope you consider having Scott G. Shea, leading music historian and author of the best-selling book, “All the Leaves Are Brown: How the Mamas & the Papas Came Together and Broke Apart,” on your program to talk about this entertainment icon. Scott not only shares the incredible story of how Wolfman Jack got on the radio and set the airwaves on fire nightly, but also delves deep into the character of Robert Weston Smith, the man behind the mic with the gravelly voice and soulful rap who became a national treasure.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

In this profoundly personal season opener, host David Johns sits down with his first teacher—his mother, Edith Johns—to explore the foundations of advocacy, resilience, and love. Mama Johns shares her journey from experiencing childhood trauma to becoming a fierce advocate for her children, fighting educational injustice with lawyers in tow when necessary. With remarkable candor, she discusses her path to acceptance, the challenges of single motherhood, and her recent discovery of peace at age 68.This conversation starts our season 'Rooted Resistance: Ancestral Wisdom for Revolutionary Times,' centered on lessons from mothers and maternal figures who've shaped us. Through laughter, vulnerability, and generations of wisdom, this episode reminds us that our collective liberation begins with healing our relationships and showing up fully for one another, especially in challenging times.Whether you're a parent, a child, or both, this episode offers powerful lessons about advocating for the next generation while finding your path to peace.

The Mamas are celebrating National Poetry Month on the 108th episode. They aren't happy about it but they're doing it, that's now much they love literature and their listeners. Join the Mamas as they offer questionable reviews of middle grade books in verse. We wish we could say they're not that bad, but they probably are. On a light note, Heather embarrasses herself by geeking out over a picture book at the end.

Mama Cass' role as Hollywood's hippie den mother pulled her into the orbit of troubling company during the “Summer of Love.” The former singer of The Mamas and the Papas thrived in Laurel Canyon's social circles, which included her close friend Sharon Tate and Sharon's husband, filmmaker Roman Polanski. But Cass' alleged involvement in some of the long rumored-hedonistic events put her at the center of a counter-narrative that explosively disrupts the supposed motive for the Manson family murders. Decades later, there's plenty to debunk about the final years of Mama Cass' life— including a silly, fat-shaming myth surrounding her death that has persisted for nearly 50 years. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including domestic violence and graphic descriptions of violence and sexual assault.

Cass Elliot, AKA "Mama Cass" from The Mamas and The Papas, broke the mold of female pop superstardom and shattered expectations of what women in music “should” be. She also was arrested in London for theft, dated international drug dealers, and tanked what was supposed to be a career-defining solo performance while flying high on Iranian hashish. To this day, the biggest controversy swirling around the singer is her connection to the 1969 Manson Family murders. Her actions during the so-called “Summer of Love” might even be why the motive for the murders America has come to accept as fact…is actually entirely false.

In and out of juvie and jail since childhood, Charles Manson learned guitar in prison from the last of the great Depression-era gangsters. He also made music industry connections in jail like the Rolling Stones' road manager. During the "Summer of Love", Manson bounced from prison and took his act to San Francisco, formed a drug-soaked sex cult, moved the whole Family to L.A., and before you could say “celebrity orgy,” he was hanging with Neil Young, the Mamas and the Papas, and the Beach Boys. Charles Manson was about to be the breakout star of 1969…at least in his own mind. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners and includes graphic depictions of violence.
