Dead Mom Scavenger Hunt episodes

  • Bonus Patreon Preview: Birth of an Reluctant Book Club

    Where we discover we both like to read different things and aren't fans of book clubs, but decide to start one anyway:

    • Discussing our reluctance about traditional book clubs 
    • Establishing a 100-page rule to skip boring books 
    • Sharing recommendations and personal tastes in books 

    These book club episodes will be available only on our Patreon so join us over there for all the conversations where we'll recap the books and act like Hollywood producers who cast the characters.

    Dead Mom Scavenger Hunt is about moving through life after loss without turning it into a whole identity—or pretending it’s not there. It’s two women traveling, eating, finding mildly chaotic situations, and narrating with humor that’s just dark enough to tell you they’ve been through something. The “scavenger hunt” isn’t literal. It’s the ongoing practice of noticing what’s still good, still funny, still meaningful…even when you don't feel like laughing.

  • The Mothwoman Cometh- New Fear Unlocked

    Ever been haunted by the creepy-crawlies of your childhood? We’ve turned our fears into fodder for fun stories, starting with an earwig encounter that spiraled into a lifelong moth aversion. Get ready to laugh along with our Bodega Bay camping tale, where moth earrings serve as a symbol of irony and acceptance. You'll hear how a cousin's story inspired quirky nighttime rituals like covering our ears with hair, and how a moth-in-ear incident brought it all full circle. We promise you’ll find humor and possibly a few relatable moments in the ways we've learned to cope with these irrational fears.

    On a lighter note, discover the outrageous world of extreme hair styling with our hilarious "rat balls beard" creation, and explore creative ear protection hacks to keep the bugs at bay. We'll share our mosquito war stories from Costa Rica, complete with tales of daring pharmacy visits for a quick fix. And if you're heading somewhere tropical, you'll want to hear about the miraculous B12 shot that left us buzzing with energy. Packed with amusing anecdotes and practical tips, this episode is your passport to laughter and learning, with a side of insect-induced hilarity.
