Snarky in the Suburbs Episode #101 Dead Wrong Jul 20, 2026

Show notes

I’ve got a Dear Snarky that will make you say, “Are you kidding me?” I’m calling it Dead Wrong and it deals with the passing of a family member and the eruption of not grief but greed. My rant is about dorm living and why do some moms stay in their daughter’s dorm. Like WTH? In the Observation department filed under “chronically online” I’m sharing a prenup we all need to tell our daughters and girlfriends about. Finally, we get to the Snarky Confession and let’s just say it resulted in my son tattletelling to my husband.

There’s Empty a “laugh till you cry” menopausal revenge adventure perfect for any woman who buys wrinkle cream in bulk to the Snarky four pack – Back to School, Trouble in Texas, Four Seasons of Snarky and Killer Dance Mom.

Back to School is a hysterical read for every mom who’s marinated in elementary school parent drama. Trouble in Texas is a tall tale of what happens when a mother just can’t stop meddling and enlists her 40 something daughter in her schemes. Four Seasons of Snarky is the ideal book to give to someone who needs a primer on suburban revenge plots. AND Killer Dance Mom is the first Snarky mystery that involves all the crazy of being a dance mom especially when a judge gets murdered.

Snarky in the Suburbs Episode #100: Freaky Jul 16, 2026

Show notes

It’s the 100th Snarky in the Suburbs podcast! So, of course we have to celebrate with a freaky Dear Snarky letter that left me feeling very uneasy. As a palate cleanser we giddy up on over to a couple of juicy rants and then in the Observations I ask the question can you have an expectation of privacy in a marriage? The Snarky Confession proves I’m a liar because I said I wouldn’t tell any more stories about water or my family for a while. Oops. Sorry not sorry.

Snarky in the Suburbs Episode #99: Whatever Jul 14, 2026

Show notes

Yay! We have two Dear Snarky letter updates and they’re both kind of juicy. I love that for us. Then after that fun I go on a rant about shopping. It’s mercifully short so don’t worry. Next up in the “I’m Chronically On-line” series I have a list of passive aggressive sayings that are big no-nos. Have I said all of them? Why, yes I have. We wrap things up with the Snarky Confession and it’s dorm room décor that costs more than a car. We’re going to have fun!

Snarky in the Suburbs Episode #98: Generational Talent? Jul 10, 2026

Show notes

We’re starting off with the Dear Snarky letter that I’m so in love with. It’s as if I’m talking to my mother. The letter even has the word uncouth in it which is one of my mom’s favorite words. Next up is a random selection of rants that just feels good to get off my chest. Then I move on to talking about “generational talents.” Spoiler: I'm not one of them. Finally, I close out with the Snarky Confession which is where I once again insert myself into someone’s personal business.

Snarky in the Suburbs Episode #97: Death March Jul 06, 2026

Show notes

The Dear Snarky letter is a tear-jerker. A woman’s husband dies and his sisters who ghosted him during his illness are now contesting the will. Then we embark on a hike of doom and go even deeper on the Alpine Divorce. 😱

My rant is about freaking appliances. Why don’t they last longer??? I keep that mercifully short so we can quickly go to the Snarky Confession. It’s about the true-life tale of a Country Club Lifeguard and it’s juicy.

Show notes

Get excited the Dear Snarky Grab Bag is back! We’ve got four mini Dear Snarky letters to discuss and they’re a tad juicy. Then it’s a rant palooza about why in the hell are there still “cake smashes” at weddings? Make it make sense. My Observation is can you be overly friendly and polite to the point of rudeness? Then just for funsies I share my Pilates near death experience. Finally, the Snarky Confession is also about dying - at sea. Yes, sea my friends. 🐋 🌊 🐳

Snarky in the Suburbs Episode #95: Life, Liberty & The Pursuit of Crazy Jun 27, 2026

Show notes

It’s a Snarky Special Edition – In honor of the Fourth of July please join me for “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Crazy.” 🇺🇸 The pod special starts out with a Dear Snarky letter from a woman who’s organized the perfect July 4th family reunion beach photos and then a brand-new sister-in-law butts in. Uh-oh. Next up I go off on Independence Day bike parades where you’ll get to meet “Daddy Hurt Feelings.” Yikes.

Next up I take a moment to speak to the wonder of the flag cake and then tell a tale of when my son’s knowledge of American history had us scurrying out of a July Fourth party and then I talk about fireworks gone wrong.

The big finish is when I channel my inner patriot and fight for justice and a foot funk free fireworks celebration. Yep, you read that right.

Snarky in the Suburbs Episode #94: Lap It Up Jun 23, 2026

Show notes

We’re starting off with a Dear Snarky letter from a woman who calls her man “perfect.” So, why is she writing me a Dear Snarky Letter? 🤔

Next up is something called a wedding “personal attendant.” Say hello to being a bride’s bitch with none of the fun of being a bridesmaid. Then thank God for the internet because I went down the rabbit hole of interior designer vs decorator. The comment sections were gold. #barndoors.

Even better than this are the updates I’ve got for you from the USPS to my hair (yet again). Worth the wait is the Snarky Confession and it’s more drama in the lap lane.

Snarky in the Suburbs #93: Top Down Jun 19, 2026

Show notes

Get ready for a Dear Snarky Grab Bag. In this pod I’m sharing a couple of letters that will make you shake your head while muttering WTH. Then I’ve got a “True Life Tale” of how I was threatened by a septuagenarian gang and I’m not exaggerating when I tell you things got intense. To give you time to recover from that I switch gears to a new dating trend called “goblintimacy.” It’s hysterical and I’m all for it. The Snarky Confession is all about enjoying driving with the top down but honey I’m not talking about a convertible.

Snarky in the Suburbs Episode #92: Double Wedding Jun 16, 2026

Show notes

Who wants a double wedding? Not the woman who wrote me this Dear Snarky letter and I don’t blame her for wanting to take a hard pass. Next up I’ve got a rant about my response to the question of what’s the best advice I’ve ever received. Let’s just say my answer wasn’t well received. The observation is about “prom maxxing” and it explains so much about current wedding culture. The Snarky Confession is certified fresh because the incident happened yesterday. Oh my!
