S3 Ep73: Introducing Imagined Family Life May 19, 2021

Show notes

Imagined Life Family immerses you in the surprising moments and challenges that shaped someone’s life before they became successful-- but there’s a catch. You won’t find out who you really are until the end of the episode, unless you follow the clues along the way! In this episode, you long to go to Africa and have adventures like Tarzan. But everyone tells you girls aren’t supposed to do things like that. You’ll just have to prove them wrong. Take a journey with Imagined Life Family and see the world through someone else’s eyes.

S3 Ep72: Botanists and Rabbis (w/ Bea and Lulu) Apr 14, 2021

Show notes

In this very special season three finale episode, Jodie and Celia’s youngest daughters, Bea and Lulu, are on the podcast! Subjects are wide-ranging and free-flowing, such as what it’s like to be homeschooled, eating ChapStick and lip scrub, how uncool their parents are (because they’re old), how to cross-pollinate plants, elementary school hierarchies, and of course, tooting. Place your bets now on who was the first to break and use a swear word!

S3 Ep71: Nothing Prepares You For Kids Apr 07, 2021

Show notes

Jodie and Celia never thought that having kids would mean having zero privacy…and that they would feel badly asking for it. But things might change, because the kids might have the opportunity to go back to school soon! Jodie and Celia discuss how in this case, different approaches work for their different kids. THEN, they completely catch their producer Emily off-guard by having her join the conversation for the first time! They all talk about what they’ve learned about parenting over the course of three seasons of this show – the hardest parts, the best parts, the most profound parts, and of course, the grossest parts. It might be the warmest, fuzziest episode yet – you’ve been warned!

S3 Ep70: One Long Weiner Dog (w/ Rossana Burgos) Mar 31, 2021

Show notes

Jodie and Celia are joined by Rossana Burgos, matriarch of the Eh Bee Family! Rossana, her husband, and their two children create family-friendly content with a positive message- but they NEVER thought they’d be internet famous. Rossana is a sexual abuse survivor and as a result is incredibly open with her children about sexuality, creating boundaries, and sticking up for themselves. Jodie, Celia, and Rossana talk about how scary it can be to have your children have some level of fame or exposure online, because people can exploit that.

S3 Ep69: Carousel From Hell Mar 24, 2021

Show notes

As life starts to slowly go back to normal Jodie and Celia discuss how despite how welcome that is, the readjustment period is going to be difficult too. They also regale us with their parenting stories of the week: the kids having pinkeye, lighting things on fire during Zoom class, letting the dog eat an entire pizza, and finding grandma’s lube.

S3 Ep68: Duct Tape and Sheer Luck (w/ Shannon and Nestor Carbonell) Mar 17, 2021

Show notes

Jodie and Celia are joined by husband and wife parenting duo Nestor and Shannon Carbonell! They talk about one of the hardest decisions that parents – but most often moms – face: whether or not to give up their career dreams to raise kids full time. It’s a decision that’s loaded with gendered expectations, privilege, spousal dynamics – and it’s never an easy one to make. But when it comes to parenting, what decision is?! Also, don’t mess with “Street Jodie.”

S3 Ep67: Chuck And Jesus And Sex Toys (With Alec Mapa) Mar 10, 2021

Show notes

Jodie and Celia are joined by actor Alec Mapa, who along with his husband, adopted their son at age five. Alec’s son is now a high school sophomore, and the three parents discuss the teenage years – which include healthy, strange, awkward, and sometimes disgusting conversations about sexuality. But at the end of the day, the most important thing is that the conversations are happening!

S3 Ep66: We're Losing It Over Biscuits! Mar 03, 2021

Show notes

Celia has her first hot flash, Jodie’s kids epically embarrass her, and both moms discuss the burnout/breaking point of being a parent in a pandemic when you have to wear 5,000 different hats and there’s no roadmap. Plus, an airing of grievance and a parenting fail that involves – what else? – butts.
