Dan didn't do a soundcheck because he's dumb, so his mic sounds like it's episode 1!   Dan & Manny welcome back longtime friend & Nostalgia Test Podcast all-star Steve Herrera to put the 1994 Pure Moods CD to the ultimate test—THE NOSTALGIA TEST!   “This music is at a very unsuccessful orgy.” -Dan Dissinger   Oh. My. God! If anyone can describe the mood of this episode, please email thenostalgiatest@gmail.com, because wow. There's really not a language to understand how Pure Moods from 1994 even begins to make sense as music, as an album, and how it went basically triple platinum. Maybe it's the aura of Kenny G, or the mysteriousness of Enya that creates the “pure” in Pure Moods. It could be the intimate energy of “Lily Was Here” which is on the Saxuality album that creates the mood that Pure Moods was trying to infuse in our 1994 existences. Who really knows, and Dan, Manny, & Steve actually never get to the bottom of this 90s existential portal, and would it even matter it they did? One thing for sure is this album wormed its way into our brains when we fell asleep on the couch and woke up at three o'clock in the morning wondering why the hell Tubular Bells was playing and why were we scared out of our minds. Maybe Steve is right that this album was being played on a loop at some random orgy in the middle of Sedona. Or Manny is right and this is the soundtrack to our mom's housecleaning and is the album for crazy Aunts with crystals. There's a chance Dan's right and this is the suburban psychedelic CD that adults played when they had too many Zimas and Bacardi Breezers, and that one leftover hippie neighbor pulls a crumpled-up joint they confiscated from their kid the other day so they can all relive their naked-Woodstock-summer-of-love glory days before waking up the next day to sell insurance. Either way, Pure Moods from 1994 is a nostalgic phenomenon that baffles our hosts and their longtime friend. So, fire up some incense, stare into the middle distance contemplating the 5th dimension, and light a movie's love scene worth of candles because you're about to get into the mood, Pure Moods with The Nostalgia Test Podcast. *** If you love what we're doing and want to support the podcast so we can keep this show going with better equipment and maybe meet up with each other to do some in-person recording, donate to The Nostalgia Test: buymeacoffee.com/nostalgiatest   Lastly, we're looking to be booked for podcast appearances, hosting gigs and parties, maybe you have a block party coming up, a BBQ that you want to be Nostalgia themed and you're looking to make it seriously memorable, a reunion, etc., contact us to book the podcast.

In this episode, we dive deep into the real intersection of motherhood and entrepreneurship, exploring how ambitious women can build financially rewarding businesses without sacrificing their families or their sanity. Laura Sinclair, founder of This Mother Means Business, shares hard-won insights and strategies for thriving as a mom and a business owner while navigating guilt, overwhelm, and the pressure to do it all.Reimagining Networking & In-Person Events: Laura discusses the evolution of her mentorship platform, emphasizing meaningful connection, collaboration, and resource sharing for ambitious moms instead of the typical “sit and get talked at” conference model.Navigating Guilt & Defining Motherhood on Your Terms: The conversation highlights how deeply ingrained beliefs about being a “good mom” often hold women back, and why creating your own definition of motherhood is a powerful first step to business success.Building Sustainable Business Foundations: Instead of chasing endless social media trends, Laura stresses the importance of solid business infrastructure, clear offers, boundaries, and foundational systems to provide stability, profit, and more freedom.Money Mindset & Pricing: We explore the widespread issue of undercharging and overdelivering, why it's crucial to separate your personal worth from your pricing, and how getting honest about financial goals can change everything for women business owners.Entrepreneurial Reality Check: Laura gets real about who entrepreneurship is (and isn't) for, the necessity of resilience, learning from “failed” launches, and why not everyone is meant to be a founder—and why that's perfectly okay.TLDR:There's no one right way to balance motherhood and business, but clarity on your values, setting strong boundaries, and building real business systems are non-negotiable for sustainable success. You don't have to sacrifice your well-being or your family to thrive as a mompreneur—define success on your own terms, charge what your work is worth, and surround yourself with a supportive, ambitious community.Thank you for listening!If this episode inspired you, please screenshot and share it on social media—be sure to tag @meganswanwellness so we can cheer you on.

I have a friend named Laney who genuinely does not experience mom guilt. Not because she's a perfect mom, but because she's decided her kids are lucky to have her — and she means it! I used to laugh when she said things like that. But, now, after working for years on myself (I've come so far!), I understand that what I was struggling with wasn't only guilt over my shortcomings as a mom, but it was also guilt over the resentment I felt for everything I was carrying that led me to not enjoy my motherhood very much. The guilt was coming at me from every direction! If any of that sounds familiar, this episode is going to feel like a very welcome exhale. This week's guest is JoAnn Crohn, certified life coach and author of The Best Mom is a Happy Mom. She helps moms go from martyr to model, and this conversation is full of honest, practical tools for getting there. ✨ Why JoAnn's husband didn't even realize the imbalance until they did this one exercise together ✨ The "guilt equation" from a psychologist that will completely change how you think about your own expectations ✨ The thing JoAnn's therapist said that cut through all the noise and told her exactly what being a good mom actually requires If you've ever felt like the mental load of your family's life is sitting entirely on your shoulders, and if you've ever felt the guilt coming from every side, this episode is for you.

Hi Mamas,  Have you ever found yourself saying: 

Whether you've whispered "what is wrong with me" after snapping over a spilled sippy cup, or you've been told it's "just hormones" one too many times, this episode is going to make you feel SO seen.Stacia Scott, nurse practitioner and founder of Postpartum Care USA, is back for round two, and she's bringing data from more postpartum moms than any clinic in the world: 88.2% of them experience mom rage.

Vitamin D in pregnancy is one of those topics that sounds simple, but the details really matter. You use this essential vitamin in nearly every part of your body, and your baby depends entirely on you to supply it. The problem is that most pregnant moms do not get enough. Deficiency is incredibly common, and it is linked to a higher risk of complications like preeclampsia. To make things more confusing, most prenatal vitamins contain far less vitamin D than the evidence suggests you need during pregnancy. In this episode, we break down what vitamin D actually does, why deficiency is so widespread, how much you really need, and the simplest ways to make sure you and your baby are getting enough.

In this episode, Debra introduces Promises Month, a 30-day focus on the promises of God, centered around the theme “Promises Over Pride.” She invites listeners to remember that every rainbow is a reminder that God's promises are still true.Debra's main teaching focuses on Psalm 46:1: “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” She reminds listeners that God is not waiting at the finish line after the battle is over. He is present in the middle of the storm, the pain, the tears, the sleepless nights, and the seasons we did not see coming.This episode also highlights the importance of Christian community, prayer support, and having spiritual “mat carriers” who will stand with you, pray with you, and help carry your burdens before the Lord. Debra shares about BattleCry Moms and BattleCry Dads, private prayer communities created to support parents believing for prodigal children and family restoration.In This EpisodeTS Wright and Debra McNinch discuss:Promises Month and the theme “Promises Over Pride”Why God is our refuge in seasons of troublePsalm 46, Psalm 55:22, Psalm 34:18, Psalm 91, and Nahum 1:7Why refuge does not mean the battle is overHow prayer steadies panic and anchors faithThe danger of trying to carry what only God can carryThe role of the Holy Spirit in repentance and restorationWhy believers need prayer warriors and Christian communityThe mission of BattleCry Moms and BattleCry DadsSupport for parents of prodigal childrenKey TakeawayYou do not have to survive the storm alone. God is your refuge, your strength, and your very present help in trouble. Even when the battle continues, His presence remains, His promises stand, and His faithfulness does not change.Featured GuestDebra McNinch Founder of BattleCry Moms and BattleCry Dads Website: DebraMcNinch.comCalls to ActionVisit DebraMcNinch.com to learn more about BattleCry Moms, BattleCry Dads, Debra's books, and the free 30-day Promises Month prayer guide.Scripture ReferencesPsalm 46:1Psalm 55:22Psalm 34:18Psalm 91Nahum 1:7John 16:33Revelation 12:11Closing EncouragementGo forth in total surrender to the One who owns and reigns over all creation.

Send me a text – I always love hearing from you! ✨Summer has a way of turning even the most grounded mom into a full-time juggler: louder houses, more meals, less structure, and that quiet pressure to “make all the memories.” This episode shares a strength reset you can actually use when the days start to feel bonkers and you're tempted to believe you have to hold everything together. We anchor in Philippians 4:12-13 and talk about what that famous verse really means. It's not a pep talk about doing it all by yourself. It's a promise that Jesus gives strength for what you're called to walk through. We connect daily strength to daily bread, and offer a prayer for when anxiety creeps in.If you're craving Christian encouragement, strength in motherhood, and faith-based tools for calmer summer routines, press play. After you listen, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review so more moms can find this support.Support the showFollow on Instagram & Facebook Support this PodcastVisit the WebsiteContact Dez for Coaching to Live your Best Life… EVER!

Kate discusses her theory about Brian and Rulla on Real Housewives of Rhode Island on Bravo. Author Hannah Selinger, who coined the term Scandoval, joins Kate to talk about her debut novel Valley of the Moms. Set in the affluent enclave of Hamilton, Massachusetts, the thriller follows Anna and Denny in alternating timelines, unraveling the toxic power dynamics, petty grievances, and dangerous secrets simmering beneath the surface of a wealthy mom community after a body is found in the Ipswich River.

Pamela has officially reached the point where every conversation somehow circles back to "Off Campus." Karen cannot understand the obsession. Pamela cannot understand how Karen is not watching. So naturally, we had to dedicate an entire episode to it. This week on Motherish, we're diving into why so many millennial moms are completely hooked on "Off Campus." Is it the nostalgia? The teen drama? The emotional support characters? The escape from real life? Probably all of the above. From teenie-bopper energy to full-blown emotional investment, we unpack why this show has moms everywhere staying up too late, texting their friends theories and feeling entirely too attached to fictional teenagers.

Embryo donation can be a beautiful and deeply layered way to build a family, but it's also a topic surrounded by questions, emotion, and a lot of unknowns. In this episode, I'm joined by Maya Grobel, a licensed clinical social worker, recipient parent, and documentary filmmaker, along with Jen Vesbit, a nationally certified counselor and donor parent. Together with their partner Gina Davis, they co-founded Empower with Moxi and the Moxi Matching platform, where they provide guidance, support, and education for embryo donors and recipients.We talk about what motivates donors and recipients, the emotional complexity on both sides, and the importance of feeling truly ready while also making space for grief. We also discuss how relationships between families can evolve over time. Maya and Jen share the personal experiences that led them to this work, including Maya building her family through embryo donation and Jen donating her remaining embryo to a single mother by choice. They also explain why more solo moms are beginning to consider embryo donation as part of their path to parenthood today.If you're curious about embryo donation for yourself, or wondering what to do with remaining embryos, this conversation will help you better understand the logistics, the community, and most importantly, what it can look like to reimagine your own vision of family.In this episode, we talk about:The emotional journey of embryo donation from both donor and recipient perspectivesThe practical steps and timeline for directed, open embryo donationThe unique ways single parents are welcomed and supported in the Moxi Matching processHow to navigate family conversations, decision-making, and the “when is my family complete?” questionThe importance of community and support for solo moms considering this pathSupporting children (and donor families) in talking about genetic connections and expanded familyWhy choice, inclusivity, and agency are at the heart of building families through embryo donationResources:EM•POWER with MoxiInstagram: @empowerwithmoxiMaya's websiteOne More ShotMaya's Podcast: Never Thought We'd Be HereJen on Instagram: @embryodonationsupport

Do you ever feel like everyone else has parenting figured out while you're struggling to keep up? In this episode, I explore why this thought comes up so often during the teen and young adult years, and how comparison can turn everyday parenting challenges into evidence that we're somehow failing. I'll also look at the hidden costs of measuring yourself against impossible standards...how it erodes your confidence, affects your relationship with your child, and keeps you focused on what's wrong instead of what's working. Most importantly, I'll share a different way to think about what it means to be a good mom during this season of motherhood. If you've ever wondered whether you're doing enough, getting it right, or somehow falling behind, this episode will help you build more trust in yourself. Because having it together isn't about being perfect...it's about continuing to show up with love, even when parenting feels hard.

You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for June 9, 2026. We open with President Trump's declaration that the U.S. will achieve total victory over Iran within two weeks — and we dig into what that actually means. Iran just shot down a U.S. Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz. Both pilots survived and were rescued by an unmanned drone in the first such rescue of U.S. service members in history. We work through the tensions in Trump's statements — between declaring victory in two weeks and talking about trillions of dollars in infrastructure reconstruction — and ask whether those two things can both be true at the same time. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, Iran shot down a U.S. Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz — both pilots bailed out safely and were rescued by an unmanned drone in a historic first. Then Vice President J.D. Vance sent a criminal referral to the DOJ urging prosecution of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for covering up Medicaid fraud, intimidating whistleblowers, and directing state employees to stop investigating fraud in Somali immigrant communities to avoid accusations of racism. And Carmelo Anthony has been convicted of murdering high school track star Austin Metcalf — who was stabbed in the heart with a knife Anthony had hidden in his backpack at a Texas track meet after refusing to leave a rival school's tent when asked. We get Dr. John Eastman — former attorney for President Trump and former California attorney general candidate — on the phone to explain why Spencer Pratt was eliminated from the Los Angeles mayor's race after holding second place on Election Day. Eastman explains California's universal mail-in ballot system, the notoriously dirty voter rolls full of dead people and illegal immigrants, the practice of runners harvesting ballots from apartment mailboxes, and the statistical impossibility of a ballot batch update in which 24,000 votes were counted and zero — literally zero — went to a candidate who had been pulling about 30% throughout the count. He also explains why the courts in California refuse to accept statistical anomalies as evidence of fraud and why the system has been deliberately designed to make post-election proof nearly impossible to obtain. And he connects it all back to the founding principle — the only legitimate government is one based on the consent of the governed, and consent can only be given through free and fair elections. We also cover new information from Jim Jordan's congressional hearings showing that the Biden Justice Department met with the Southern Poverty Law Center on a quarterly basis, treated them as a credible source, and used their designations — which labeled the Family Research Council, Moms for Liberty, and the Alliance Defending Freedom as hate groups — to inform federal law enforcement decisions. The Richmond FBI memo suggesting pro-life Catholics could be linked to extremism? The sourcing came from the SPLC. We explain why this matters to everyone regardless of party — because when a government starts investigating viewpoints instead of crimes, nobody is safe. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson tackle the question of whether someone with an OnlyFans page can ever expect to get a husband — prompted by the news that Denise Richards joined OnlyFans after her own daughter did. We get into why the platform combines the two things people most want — money and fame — while delivering neither happiness nor lasting value, and why the basketball player's wife who kept her page secret for five years until her husband found out and divorced her is the most honest version of where that road ends. We dig into Washington D.C. public school sex education — which has apparently stopped using the terms male and female to describe human biology in order to avoid conflicting with gender ideology. We note that this is being done in what some consider the most educated city in America, and compare it to trying to teach geography without using the words continent or ocean. For our Bright Spot, Meta has announced America's Workforce Academy — a cost-free, five-week training program with an initial $115 million investment that will train fiber technicians, welders, plumbers, electricians, and other skilled trade workers and guarantee jobs for all graduates. Mike Rowe calls it an important step in the right direction. We call it exactly what it is — a private company solving a public problem without waiting for the government to screw it up first. And we close with the crew of Artemis 3 — Colonel Randy Bresnik, Colonel Frank Rubio, Commander Andre Douglas, and Italian astronaut Colonel Luca Parmitano — announced by NASA this week for the upcoming lunar landing mission expected to launch in late 2027. And an Air Canada pilot who flew commercially for 17 years without a valid pilot's license — proof that AI isn't the original scam. People have been fooling each other since the beginning of civilization. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.

In this conversation, Dr. Stanton Hom sits down with Dr. Molly Peralta and Michale Chatham from The Vessel Village, a transformational space for women, mothers, and practitioners. Together they unpack how modern mothers are drowning in information yet starving for wisdom, why women are the emotional barometers and chief energy officers of the home, and how concepts like resourcing, feedback loops, and true stability can transform families across generations. They also dive into the nuance around frenectomies, airway interventions, and how a mother's field, beliefs, and vitality shape a child's development in real time.   Highlights: "We have a wisdom crisis right now, because women consume all of this information, but they never get to the interiority and the gnosis part of themselves, which is where intuition lives."    "You cannot mother without a village. You need people around you, you need support, and you also need the tools to figure out how to create the support."    "The woman is the chief energy officer of the home, and she's the emotional barometer."    "It's not the doing something that's wrong, it's whether that action actually creates a net gain for you, or continues to drain you."    "Put your bare feet on the ground and your boobs in the sun and change your whole life."    Timestamps: 00:02 – Introduction 01:50 – Michale Chatham's journey: nursing, myofunctional therapy & biological dentistry 03:21 – Molly's ethos: birth, chiropractic, and becoming a mother 06:49 – How The Vessel Village was born from a gap in support 10:07 – What is The Vessel Village?

Hey friend, Do you go from therapy drop-off to tutoring pickup to dinner with no actual breathing room in between? Does your brain keep running a list of all the things you still have to do, even when you sit down? Have you been wondering when, exactly, you're supposed to catch your breath in your own day? I'm Ashley — a mom living with chronic illness in a neurodivergent family. If you're dealing with constant fatigue, brain fog, inflammation, and broken sleep while trying to keep up with your kids, you're not alone. Chronic Illness Moms is a podcast for moms with chronic illness or chronic symptoms who want stress relief, better sleep, and simple, realistic habits that actually work inside a full, demanding life. In this episode, I'm naming what no mental breathing room actually feels like — that rushed, can't-set-anything-down, replaying-the-list feeling — and walking through what's happening in your nervous system on back-to-back days. I'm giving you one small reset that takes 30 seconds and lives inside a transition you already have in your day. No new routine.

Your kid wants to drink exactly what you're drinking. And honestly…CPG brands are finally letting them by taking grown-up wellness trends and making them playground ready. We're talking about No Seed Oils, extra protein, and "Adult Functionality" in a lunchbox-sized serving. Although I wouldn't consider this just a trend, as CPG brands are responding to the “MAHA Moms” wanting clean labels and showing an unwillingness to compromise just because their kid is small. So, a question to my fellow parents…would you give your kid a "mini" version of your favorite protein shake?

With her daughter just back from college (yes, she moved home — rent free, dishes in the sink and all), Brooke is officially in that beautiful, chaotic in-between stage of motherhood that so many of us know too well.But she's not slowing down. Brooke is producing AND starring in her new mystery series You're Killing Me on Acorn TV — and this is the most creative control she's ever had over a project. She fought for every location, every wardrobe choice, every casting decision. And the result? People are loving it.Plus — Julie and Brooke have a surprise connection: their daughters were in the same play at Wake Forest. Cue the "pit sweating" and "trying not to cry" mom solidarity.This one is funny, heartfelt, and a little bit iconic. Just like Brooke.

In this episode, I sit down with Rhonda Stoppe to discuss biblical parenting in a culture that challenges truth. We talk about discipling children in everyday life, helping kids develop discernment, raising sons with godly character, and finding freedom from the pressure to be a perfect parent. Rhonda also shares encouragement from Moms of the Bible, reminding us that our success as parents is not measured by our children's outcomes but by our faithfulness to God. Whether you're raising toddlers, teenagers, or praying for adult children, this conversation offers practical wisdom and biblical encouragement for every mom.

We also discuss why parents may be unintentionally under-fueling their young athletes, the growing divide between personal health optimization and public health, and a new term we can't stop thinking about: NARP Moms.Along the way, we reflect on Caroline's graduation week, the challenges of raising healthy athletes, the strange culture surrounding performance enhancement in sports, and why compassion—not blame—should guide conversations about health and disease.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy Kelly's coffee experiments nearly caused a household revoltOur take on the Enhanced Games and what they say about the future of sportWhy “cancer shaming” is becoming a troubling trend in wellness cultureWhat Juliet learned from being diagnosed with cancer at 19—and again later in lifeThe difference between personal health optimization and public healthWhy many young athletes are dramatically under-fueledHow “NARP Moms” might be affecting their kid's sports performanceWhy carbs are still king for growing athletesWhat fewer kids reading books could mean for the next generationReflections on parenting through graduation seasonKey Highlights: (00:00) — Welcome back to RECESS(00:30) — Juliet's latest near-animal attack and Kelly's divorce-worthy coffee experiments(02:52) — Caroline's signing day and graduation season reflections(05:04) — The Enhanced Games: spectacle, performance, and the future of sport(11:39) — Follow-up on nicotine pouches and European bans(14:12) — Zach Coen and cancer shaming in the wellness community(16:20) — Juliet's experience as a two-time cancer survivor(18:18) — Brad Ludden and First Descents(18:55) — Why blaming people for cancer is dangerous and misguided(20:28) — Introducing the “NARP Mom”, Shannon Mendez(22:08) — Why youth athletes need dramatically more calories than adults(24:45) — Carbs, under-fueling, and sports performance(25:45) — Soman Chainani's new book, Young World — and how the data shows that fewer kids are reading books(27:33) — Graduation week and sending another kid off to college

This week on Good Moms Bad Choices, Erica and Milah are talking mom guilt, summer pressure, and the realization that the kids are probably doing just fine. As summer approaches and the kids invade the house 24/7, the Good Moms unpack the reality of modern motherhood: trying to create “core memories,” keep up with overachieving moms, manage work, relationships, and still remember to feed yourself (and maybe smoke a little weed in peace). They get raw about comparison culture, over-scheduled childhoods, and how the shit we went through as kids quietly creeps into how we parent today. If you’ve ever felt like you’re not doing enough, this one’s for you. You can also expect to hear Why Erica says mom guilt is made up by the patriarchy The pressure to create “magical summers” and core memories (and why that’s exhausting as hell) How comparison culture, school moms, and social media are making parenting feel like a never-ending performance Moms who are running themselves into the ground trying to do it all (STEM camps, activities, enrichment, all of it) The radical idea that the kids are probably doing just fine Bad Choice of the Week: Falling for yet another love-bombing white man. Whorie Time: A threesome of chaos: Larry, his brother, and the broker — an intertwined hoe-tale you don’t see coming. Tune in for a funny, honest, slightly high conversation about motherhood, mom guilt, summer expectations, race, dating, and giving yourself a lot more grace.
