Life is a marathon with obstacles, and motherhood has a way of making sure we're always climbing something.In this episode, Casia reflects on completing her first Spartan Race and the lessons hidden beneath the mud: showing up before you feel ready, continuing after failure, letting go of comparison, leaning on God, and discovering that motherhood may have been preparing you for difficult climbs all along.Plus, music, the greatness of DunkleSlam and an important reminder that crossing one finish line doesn't mean the uphill battle is over.Whether your current obstacle is visible or one nobody else can see, Mud, Music, & Motherhood is an hour of encouragement for every mom still putting one foot in front of the other.You don't have to move fast. You just have to keep moving.33 videoYouTube PlaylistSend us Fan Mail Support the showFor moms who need music, honesty, laughter, and a soft place to land after a hard day...  Get the parts of MATM made for moms who need more than an episode on Patreon: early access, bonus reads, emotional reset content, playlists, digital products, and behind-the-scenes chaos.

It all started with four emails from Josh, a soon-to-be dad in the UK with one simple goal: be the best parent he can be.In Part 1 of this special two-part episode, we're answering his biggest questions about becoming a first-time parent; from pregnancy and bonding before birth to preparing for those first overwhelming months, navigating the endless advice, and trying to figure out what actually matters when you're raising a tiny human.If you've ever stayed up at 2 a.m. wondering whether you're doing this parenting thing "right," this conversation is for you.Part 2 drops later tonight, where we tackle even more of Josh's questions, including sleep, routines, daycare, developmental concerns, and the realities of raising little ones.We aren't doctors or child development experts, just three moms sharing our own experiences in hopes that they help someone else feel a little less alone.YouTube PlaylistSend us Fan Mail Support the showFor moms who need music, honesty, laughter, and a soft place to land after a hard day...  Get the parts of MATM made for moms who need more than an episode on Patreon: early access, bonus reads, emotional reset content, playlists, digital products, and behind-the-scenes chaos.

This week, we're diving into Netflix's Maternal Instinct... and let's just say our blood pressure didn't survive the experience.What started as "Let's watch a documentary" quickly turned into three moms pausing the TV every five minutes to ask, "Girl... WHAT are you doing?!" We break down the real case, unpack the documentary, roast one unbelievably delusional woman far more often than we probably should, and somehow still leave with even more questions than we started with.Trigger Warning: This episode discusses the real-life murder of a pregnant woman, fetal abduction, infant death, pregnancy loss, violence, trauma, and grief. While we don't sensationalize the events or focus on graphic details, these topics are central to both the documentary and our conversation.So grab a snack, pull up a chair in the living room, and come process this absolutely wild documentary with us.YouTube PlaylistSend us Fan Mail Support the showFor moms who need music, honesty, laughter, and a soft place to land after a hard day...  Get the parts of MATM made for moms who need more than an episode on Patreon: early access, bonus reads, emotional reset content, playlists, digital products, and behind-the-scenes chaos.

What if some of the most influential people in music were the ones we've never learned to recognize?In this special solo episode, we're stepping behind the curtain to spotlight the women whose work has shaped the soundtracks of our lives. From the first woman to win an Academy Award for film scoring to the songwriters behind some of the biggest hits in music history, we're celebrating the creators whose names deserve just as much recognition as the artists and actors we know by heart.Join us as we explore the incredible careers of Rachel Portman, Anne Dudley, Hildur Guðnadóttir, Laura Karpman, Diane Warren, and Carole King... and ask why so many of the people responsible for making us feel a story have remained hidden in the credits for so long.Because sometimes the most powerful voices are the ones working behind the scenes.YouTube PlaylistSend us Fan Mail Support the showFor moms who need music, honesty, laughter, and a soft place to land after a hard day...  Get the parts of MATM made for moms who need more than an episode on Patreon: early access, bonus reads, emotional reset content, playlists, digital products, and behind-the-scenes chaos.

What does it mean to be the eldest daughter?In this episode of Moms and Their Music, we explore the unique experience of growing up as the firstborn daughter and the expectations that often come with that role.From responsibility and leadership to sibling dynamics, people-pleasing tendencies, and the pressure to "set the example," we discuss how being the eldest daughter can shape both childhood and adulthood in ways that are often overlooked. We also chat for a while about what it's like to raise an eldest daughter.Whether you're an eldest daughter yourself, raising one, married to one, or still recovering from being told "you're the oldest" every time something went wrong, this episode is for you.We laugh our way through sibling dynamics, unrealistic expectations, responsibility that somehow gets assigned by birth order, and the strange phenomenon of eldest daughters becoming unofficial assistant managers of the family before they're even old enough to drive.As Moms and Their Music continues to grow, we're also entering a season of intentional development behind the scenes. We're exploring new ideas, refining how we connect with our audience, and laying the groundwork for exciting additions still to come.Thank you for being part of the journey.

This week, Tiffany takes the VIP seat as we turn the spotlight on one of our own.We talk motherhood, relationships, identity, personal growth, music memories, and all the beautifully chaotic moments that come with trying to balance life while staying true to yourself. Tiffany shares her story with honesty, humor, and the kind of relatability that makes you feel like you're talking with an old friend.Join us as we get to know the woman behind the co-host mic.Because motherhood is better with music.

This week on Moms and Their Music, we sit down with Lauren: music lover, old-school jam enthusiast, certified queen of finding the best mashups, and somehow… a complete wizard at balancing motherhood, work life, and still keeping music at the center of it all.

Some friendships don't stay the same… but somehow, they still stay.

This week's episode brings a real, honest, and unforgettable conversation with a devoted husband and proud girl dad who shared stories that had us laughing, reflecting, and appreciating the journey of fatherhood. ❤️We talked about:

Concert etiquette… but not in the way you think.This episode isn't about rules; it's about the full experience. The energy you walk in with, the choices you make before the first song even plays, and the moments that turn a night into something you never forget.We get into our favorite shows, pre-show rituals, outfit debates (comfort vs. showing OUT), indoor vs. outdoor venues, and what it really looks like bringing kids into concert spaces.And of course… a few stories that probably should've stayed at the concert...No perfect guidelines. No right or wrong way to do it.Just real moms, real music, and the way we actually experience it.Press play

Nobody talks about what happens after the day is “done.” The quiet reset. The mental checklist. The pressure to get everything right before tomorrow even starts.In this episode, we get into the real closing shift… the one that isn't just about cleaning, but everything we carry at the end of the day. From nighttime routines (or lack of them) to the thoughts that won't turn off, this conversation hits in a way that might feel a little too familiar.No perfect systems.No unrealistic expectations.Just real moms figuring it out in real time.YouTube PlaylistSend us Fan Mail Support the showGet the parts of MATM made for moms who need more than an episode on Patreon: early access, bonus reads, emotional reset content, playlists, printables, and behind-the-scenes chaos.

Work-life balance sounds cute until motherhood enters the group chat. This week, we're talking jobs, kids, guilt, burnout, chaos, caffeine, and the very real art of doing your best while absolutely not having it all figured out.Come sit with us for the real side of trying to balance work, life, motherhood, and everything in between. New episode from Moms and Their Music.

Episode 12 is a guest interview… and a return to our roots.This is what happens when you circle back to where it all started; with a little more life, a little more perspective, and just enough history to make things interesting.Same connection. Different energy. A lot more to say (and a few things that probably weren't supposed to be said

Postpartum isn't just a phase; it's a transformation.This week, we're talking about what really happens after the baby arrives. The emotional highs, the mental weight, the identity shifts… and everything in between that doesn't always make it into the “new mom” narrative.It's honest. It's unfiltered. And it's a conversation a lot of moms don't realize they need until they hear it.Tap in.YouTube PlaylistSend us Fan Mail Support the show

There's a voice in you that doesn't need proof… but somehow we're always asking it for receipts.This episode lives in that space.The gut feeling you tried to explain away. The moment you second-guessed… then circled back like, “yeah… I knew.”We're getting into what it actually looks like to trust that voice, how easily we override it, and what changes when you start listening differently; especially when your faith is part of the conversation.This one's not loud… but it sticks.YouTube PlaylistNational Library Of Medicine ArticleNational Institute of Mental Health ArticleMonster Nanny ArticleWashington Post ArticleSend us Fan Mail Support the show

You're not stuck. You're in the first act.The Men at the Movies Star Wars episode is in Spotify jail — music licensing, no bond available. So while we wait, here's what you didn't see.Paul sits outside with a cigar and shares two raw pre-show conversations: one with Sam Ainslie about how MATM got started, and one with Eric about superheroes, the hero's journey, and what the stories you keep coming back to are actually trying to tell you about who you are.Also in this episode — MATM is officially moving to a monthly cadence, and something new is being built. Not a personality quiz. Not a framework that puts you in a box. Identity archaeology — excavating who you already are through the stories that have always spoken to you.

 Making friends as a mom is harder than dating… and somehow more confusing Making friends as a mom comes with a lot of questions…Like: “Are we close?” “Are our kids the reason we talk?” “Do I text first or is that too much?”In this episode of Moms and Their Music, we're talking about the reality of friendships in motherhood — the effort it takes, the awkwardness of making new connections, and why keeping friendships strong can feel harder than it used to.We also dive into the differences between friendships with moms and friendships with friends who don't have kids — and how both can feel meaningful, but very different.It's honest, a little chaotic, and very much a “you're not the only one figuring this out as you go” kind of conversation.Youtube Playlist  -There's not much on there for this one, honestly.

 A single dad. A teenage daughter. And the moment parenting shifts from protecting to preparing. This week on Moms and Their Music, we open the door to a different side of the parenting experience.In our first-ever Dad-isode, our anchor host sits down with Billy Boy, a single father raising a teenage daughter as she steps into a new phase of independence.What unfolds is a conversation about trust, growth, and the delicate balance between holding on and letting go.From navigating the teenage years to reflecting on the role music plays in shaping memories and connection, this episode highlights the often-unspoken thoughts behind fatherhood; especially when raising a daughter.It's a perspective that is rarely centered, but deeply important.Youtube Playlist for this EpisodeSend us Fan Mail Support the show

 For the first time ever, the full MATM trio is finally in the same room… and the conversation goes exactly as off the rails as you'd expect. No missing chairs. No scheduling chaos. Just the full trio doing what we do best; laughing too hard, telling stories we probably shouldn't, and saying the quiet parts out loud.What started as a simple recording quickly turned into one of the most fun sessions we've had so far. The energy in the room was unreal, the stories escalated faster than expected, and more than once we looked at each other and asked, “Should we cut that?” …and then decided not to.This episode is what happens when moms finally get to talk about a night out and the conversation goes completely off the rails; the kind of honest, hilarious, and sometimes chaotic storytelling that comes from real friendship, motherhood, and life lived out loud.If you've ever wondered what happens when three moms get together to talk about parenting, life, music, and the stories that come with it… this episode is exactly that moment.Grab your drink or mocktail, settle in, and come hang out with us.Trust us… this one gets wild.Youtube PlaylistSend a text Support the show

The first baby changes your life. The second baby changes everything else.In Episode 6 of Moms and Their Music, we're talking about the beautifully chaotic reality of welcoming that second child; the shift in family dynamics, the emotional curveballs, the moments that make you laugh just to keep from crying, and the realization that whatever you thought you had figured out the first time… might not apply anymore.This episode is also a long-awaited MATM milestone as Rachel finally joins us on the mic, bringing her voice, perspective, and lived experience into the conversation for the first time.Motherhood doesn't come with a manual, and adding another tiny human to the mix has a funny way of rewriting the rules you thought you understood.So come hang out with us as we talk about the surprises, the struggles, the humor, and the unexpected beauty that comes with that second child.Because if the first baby teaches you how to become a mom… the second one teaches you how to roll with it.Youtube Playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwnGrdjqohPKHIpcpVSStTecLqu-AUnr0&si=rCD8QxT0nUHAP94nNewey Soundcloud:Stream NEWEY music | https://soundcloud.com/neweymusicSend us Fan Mail Support the show

Two of the moms sit down for a conversation that doesn't try to wrap motherhood into neat little boxes. Bonus moms. Bio moms. Different roles, different emotions and a whole lot of perspective that rarely gets said out loud.What starts as a simple discussion slowly unfolds into something deeper: boundaries that aren't always clear, love that looks different depending on where you stand, and the quiet truths that live underneath blended family dynamics. There's no scorekeeping here. No sides to pick. Just honesty, reflection, and the kind of real talk that happens when the mics stay on long enough for the walls to come down.Some moments feel raw. Some feel unexpectedly comforting. And of course, it wouldn't be MATM without a few laughs breaking through when things get heavy.If you've ever lived in the gray areas of modern motherhood or wondered what those conversations sound like behind closed doors; this episode invites you to listen a little closer.Press play… and step into the perspective.Link to the YouTube playlist:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwnGrdjqohPJZUnCUlQDZj4Gr0nqWdX_B&si=-KQiwU6re3NLvUWhSend a textThe Classic MATM intro the sound that tells you, we're coming back from or going to break/ad ok byyyyeee Support the show

One of the Moms and Their Music hosts sits down with Tianna for a real, unfiltered mom-to-mom conversation rooted in the music that shaped us and the lives we're building now. What starts as a discussion about playlists and nostalgia quickly turns into something deeper; motherhood, growth, and the moments that connect us long after the songs fade out.This episode brings back the original MATM energy: honest stories, unexpected laughter, and the kind of conversation that feels more like sitting in a living room than recording a podcast. There's a light nod to an emo-girl era that may or may not still exist somewhere in our playlists, but at its heart, this is a story about real moms, real experiences, and the music that carries us through every season.Link to YouTube Playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwnGrdjqohPJIJeF7513msLqvY_sBRVNQ&si=Ladnkh-5VwOO81vvSend a textThe Classic MATM intro the sound that tells you, we're coming back from or going to break/ad ok byyyyeee Support the show

In Episode 2, we get into talks about kid shows, movies, and games. The ones we grew up on, the ones our kids are obsessed with now, and the weird emotional whiplash that happens when those two worlds collide. Somewhere between Bluey episodes, theme song earworms, and background noise we didn't consent to, something else sneaks in: nostalgia, grief, joy, exhaustion, and a whole lot of “wait… why does this hit?”This episode is funny. It's nostalgic. It's honest in that “I didn't know I needed to say this out loud” kind of way.It's also one of those conversations that starts light… and then quietly reminds you that being a mom doesn't erase who you were; It just layers more meaning on top of it.So whether you're listening while folding laundry, sitting in the car for five minutes of silence, or reliving your childhood through your kid's favorite show; we're right there with you.

Mark Evans was the black sheep—trapped in a Welsh village that didn't understand his dreams, pushed into an art world that didn't want what he created. He knows what it's like to be dead and hear the voice of love calling across space and time. His story threads through The Matrix and Far and Away—two films about men who refuse to stay trapped, who risk everything for the impossible, and who discover that grace is free but it will cost you everything.This is part of our ongoing series with the men featured in Wild at Heart: The Series. If you haven't watched Mark's story yet, check it out on the Wild at Heart YouTube channel. Then join us as we unpack the two films that mirror his journey—and why men who step out of the boat can never go back.

Hello Seattle Mariners fans! John Trupin, Evan James and Grant Bronsdon are here on April 21st 2024 to talk suddenly red hot Mariners before the double header closes out the weekend. Last night, on an audacious 4/20 the Mariners decided to roll up and smoke the Rockies in a blizzard. Finally getting deep double digits hits (4 hits for Cal and Julio!) propelled the offense to look more alive than they have all season. Your eyes do not deceive you, the team had indeed played better offensively and defensively of late. Where did the suspect fielding go? Has the offense found its grove or is this a strength of opponent mirage that will fade in Texas? The MATM crew takes a smattering of listener questions from Twitter and tries to sus out the forest from the trees in a time when small samples begin to crystalize as trends.

Taking the time to understand that your patterns of relating are dysfunctional is the step that sets our healing journey in motion. It can be both freeing and overwhelming to realize there are different and more productive ways of relating to those in our family now or in our family of origin. But as Kaye and I talk about in this episode, there's a pretty big gap between what the average person sitting in the pews really needs in terms of support and what the local church usually provides. Kaye's got some great insights on why just knowing Christian doctrine isn't enough to handle the messy stuff in our relationships, and why knowing Jesus-is.  In this episode, you'll learn:  Why many people find 12 Step groups more accessible than churches How your healing journey will naturally benefit those you love Why there is redemption in choosing health even when other family members won't  Why the church as a body needs to examine its effectiveness in supporting families in crisis The freedom found in embracing our powerlessness over the actions of others How God used Kaye's vulnerability to invite her into an intimate relationship with Him To register for the Healing Prayer Seminar in Phoenix on Saturday, April 13th, 2024, email Kaye Schneider at:  Kaye.vitalconnections@aol.com   Grab your copy of Lifted From Shame Order your eBook or print book on Amazon here.

EP: Jo Sanders

MATM with Fuss, Nick and the Drip

Almost everyone these days is obsessed with true crime.. MATM included. So we decided to do some research into songs based on actual true crime cases! Just to name a couple, MJ's "Smooth Criminal" and Tupac's "Brenda's Got a Baby". There's more to discover than just what we've been hearing with every single on of the six songs we're going to be looking into the facts behind as well as payinng homage to the victims by telling their stories as much as sources allow. So join us in exploring the reality behind the inspiration in this very special episode! Sources https://www.songfacts.com/facts/bob-dylan/hurricanehttps://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/9bmq8n/til_that_smooth_criminal_by_micheal_jackson_was/https://www.mjvibe.com/michael-jacksons-smooth-criminal-the-untold-story/https://americansongwriter.com/smooth-criminal-michael-jackson-behind-song-lyrics-meaning/https://www.songmeaningsandfacts.com/georgia-lee-by-tom-waits/https://www.songfacts.com/facts/tom-waits/georgia-leehttps://www.nytimes.com/1991/03/28/nyregion/baby-saved-from-compactor-where-mother-12-says-she-put-him.html https://rockthebells.com/articles/brendas-got-a-baby-tupac-true-story/https://www.songfacts.com/facts/flyleaf/cassiehttp://www.salon.com/news/feature/1999/09/30/bernall/https://apnews.com/article/c5baf58d71793bb93dac237b7099b621https://showbizcorner.com/marissa-mathy-zvaifler-missing-after-concert-murder-storyhttp://www.marissamission.org/marissa.htmlhttps://genius.com/Atmosphere-that-night-lyricshttps://archives.sfweekly.com/shookdown/2011/05/05/atmospheres-slug-tells-how-the-rape-and-murder-of-a-fan-changed-his-music-and-his-life

The Marveling at the Movies gang watch Ms. Marvel. And, look: I know what you're thinking. "Why is this episode so long?" And... If this is your first episode of the MATM podcast, yeah, OK, maybe this is not the best place to start if you don't like 2.5 hour long arguments. This podcast is longer than Thor: Love and Thunder!!! BUT, if this is not your first episode of MATM, then you will probably not be surprised why exactly the gang spends 30 minutes arguing about just one topic. It's honestly kind of ridiculous. But we don't really edit this show, we kinda just toss it all out there for you to absorb so... uh, have fun.

Reading Now: “Men Around the Messenger ﷺ”By Khalid Muhammad KhalidDownloaded from AllahsWord.com website While reading this book, we cannot help but be moved by the lives of the Companions herein depicted. How we long to have their awe and reverence for Allah! How we long to spend the same hours in worship as they! How we long to be as brave as they were in the face of danger! How we long to be as patient as they were under torture! This book fulfills the need for the English-speaking Muslim to learn more about that first generation of Muslims. Indeed the Companions - the men who were contemporaries with the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) - inspire and encourage us.Please join the Islamic audio bytes community on Instagram and Facebook to feedback or any other comments.https://www.instagram.com/sisterb_islamicaudiobytes/https://www.facebook.com/ukhti.bee.9/https://www.youtube.com/c/islamicaudiobyteshttps://islamicaudiobytes.com/Email us: sisterbee007@gmail.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This week on the MATM podcast, we look at The Sandlot as a way to build friendships and find joy. We've got to break out of our comfortable rut, but it's through new experiences that relationships are strengthened. To make memories and find joy, we have to engage the senses. But if we can do that, we will find that every day is an adventure. You're killing me Smalls, and let's discover God's truth in this movie. Questions What are the sandlot type memories from your childhood? Who's there? Where were you? What were you doing? Think back to some of your happiest memories. Where is there a bit of nostalgia, a twinge of sorrow involved? When was the last time you were so excited you freaked out? Do you approach your days expecting to be surprised by God? What would that look like? What was the last playful thing you did? Something you did simply for the joy of doing it? What new experiences are you engaging in? When was the last time you made s'mores? How can you engage the senses in a playful way? How does a cynical or skeptical approach shut you down to experience joy and surprise? What would it look like to approach each day with childlike wonder? How do you receive extravagant gifts? “It's too much?” Try to balance the scales, like you have to give them an awesome gift in exchange? Can you receive it with simple gratitude and joy?

This week on the MATM podcast, we welcome the heptapods in Arrival starring Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, and Forest Whitaker. We discuss the power of language and the importance of communication. The conversations we immerse ourselves will reshape and rewire our minds. And we see that we have to give, open, and risk in order to win the thing we most long for—connection. Say yes to the invitation, and let's discover God's truth in this movie. Questions How can we know God if we don't get face-to-face? How do you get face-to-face with God? What language and conversation do you immerse yourself in? How does it shape your perspectives? How have you been misunderstood? How have you misunderstood others? Where has that misunderstanding caused problems? What language/conversations do you immerse yourself in? What conversations do you have with yourself? Others? God? How does this shape your thinking? Where have you risked in the past? What did you lose? What did you gain? Where have you hidden in fear, guarding what you were afraid to lose? What did it cost you? What did you save? How is life is a non-zero sum game? To dive into this content even more, visit our website: www.menatthemovies.com/podcast.

This week on the MATM podcast, we ride off to discuss The Man from Snowy River starring Kirk Douglas. An uninitiated man is a danger to himself and others. We must go through our initiation to learn who we are and earn our place, and is the place to put our beliefs into action. The first step is showing up, revealing our character and waiting for God to open the moment for us. Saddle up, and lets discover God's truth in this movie.To dive into this content even more, visit our website: www.menatthemovies.com/podcast.

What feelings rise when you have to wait for something (like an amazon order that takes a week)? How has a gift turned into opportunity to prove yourself? What's the difference between reacting and responding to chaos and conflict? Which do you do most often? Where do you feel like an imposter? How do you engage at home? Where are you being called to simply show up? Who have you become? Who are you becoming?

Shaun and Chuck recap a busy weekend in combat sports, including Paul Felder and Dan Hooker going to war in the UFC Auckland main event and Tyson Fury's dominant victory over Deontay Wilder in what was likely the biggest moment of Saturday night's slate. First, the guys discuss Dan Hooker's razor-thin decision over Paul Felder, how they had the fight scored, if this win vaults "The Hangman" into a new tier in the UFC Lightweight division, whether we've seen the last of Paul Felder, who hinted at possible retirement following the loss, and how the idea of a “robbery” is starting to lose all meaning because of the MMA Twitter commentariat. Plus, undercard highlights and a record-breaking streak for Angela “Overkill” Hill. Then, the guys talk about Tyson Fury's incredible performance on Saturday night, the magnitude of the event being heightened by the pageantry of both fighters' walkouts, and why potentially the MMA media favored Fury heading into the bout while boxing pundits largely went with Wilder. Plus, a special shoutout to the “Oxfighter” Khaos Williams, who gave The Man and the MITH exclusive insight into his awesome nickname, recently announced fights like Valentina Shevchenko vs. Jojo Calderwood, Chris Weidman vs. Jack Hermansson, Shogun Rua vs. Lil' Nog 3, and thoughts on Josh Fabia's bizarre interviews last week, including one conducted by The Athletic MMA's own Josh Gross.
