The moms are soaking up the start of summer…maybe a little too much! ☀️ Kelly shares how she ended up with a sunburn, sparking a conversation about enjoying the warmer weather and making the most of the season.

They also dive into the growing role of AI in everyday life and the ways it can actually be a helpful tool before shifting gears to a much scarier topic: scams and fraud. After Jill discovers an unexpected monthly charge on her account that she never authorized, the moms discuss how difficult it can be to keep track of finances, along with the credit card rewards and shopping apps they swear by to make the most of their spending.

Plus, after a listener praises Kelly for staying so positive throughout her health journey, she opens up about the toughest moments she’s faced—including the hard experience of telling her kids she was sick.

And after spending weeks recapping Dance Moms: A New Era, the conversation turns reflective as Melissa, Jill, and Kelly compare today’s reality TV landscape to their own experience and discuss just how much the genre has changed over the years.

The moms also chat about Jill's ever-growing animal kingdom (5 dogs and 2 cats!), the recent conversation surrounding Khloé Kardashian's regret over declawing her cats, and how excited they are that the weather is finally warming up in Pittsburgh. With pool season officially here, summer is in full swing—and so is fruit season!

This week, Melissa, Jill and Kelly are kicking off Memorial Day weekend with stories, laughs and plenty of throwbacks! With prom season in full swing, the moms look back on their own high school dances and just how different prom was back then compared to today. Kelly admits she absolutely hated high school, Melissa shares the story of borrowing a prom dress she may have never returned, and Jill reminisces about all the drama that came with teenage years.

Plus, the moms spill behind-the-scenes secrets from one of the most iconic parts of Dance Moms — pyramid. Why did filming those scenes take SO long? What really happened during all those hours in the studio? From producer interruptions to Abby’s endless commentary, they reveal what viewers never saw on TV.

Jill, Melissa, and Kelly are comparing the way they grew up to the way their kids were raised, and let’s just say…this generation may not know how to write a check, but they can navigate airports better than most adults! The moms talk about how growing up traveling the world through dance shaped their girls in ways they never experienced as kids.

They also react to fans saying they “grew up with them” on TV and wonder if Dance Moms accidentally helped raise an entire generation. Plus, the moms weigh in on the viral “divorce effect” trend and debate why everyone seems to glow up after a split.

And of course, they answer one of the questions fans have always wanted to know: did the girls compete with other routines at competitions that viewers never saw on the show? Kelly is also celebrating a birthday!

The moms are officially over the cold, gloomy “in between” weather and ready for spring! This week, Melissa, Jill, and Kelly are talking flowers, planting season, and all the things they’re looking forward to as the weather finally starts warming up. Plus, Brooke completed a half marathon, and Kelly showed up fully prepared with snacks and supplies to cheer her on… proving once again that once a Dance Mom, always a Dance Mom.

The moms also look back on some of their favorite jobs they’ve ever had, share how they each love to celebrate Mother’s Day, and reflect on how special this year feels as Jill celebrates Mother’s Day with her daughter now becoming a mom herself.

Jill, Melissa, and Kelly are back and discussing a very relatable situation…they got got. From being stopped mid-shopping trip at Sam’s Club to signing up for dog training sessions. The moms always thought they were too savvy to fall for a sales pitch…so what happened?!

Plus, a life update as Kendall recovers from getting her wisdom teeth out and the moms share their best tips for getting through it.

They’re also answering your questions and giving honest, big-sister/mom-style advice for anyone just starting out—covering everything from navigating adulthood to trusting your gut (especially when someone’s trying to sell you something).

Jill, Melissa, and Kelly are back together and catching up on life, and this week the conversation naturally turns to the “itch to move.” With their kids entering new chapters and making big moves of their own, the moms open up about what it would look like to shift their own lifestyles—maybe somewhere with better weather, more sunshine, and always something to do.

Kelly shares insight on life from Naples. Jill talks about wanting to be closer to her grandchild and what that might mean for her next chapter. Melissa is dreaming up a winter escape to Palm Springs, even as she continues navigating a not-so-glamorous HOA situation that’s testing her patience.

The conversation also gets into Coachella—especially with Maddie taking on the iconic festival stage—and whether the moms could ever see themselves in that scene. Plus, they imagine a fun alternate universe: if they (or their kids) ever joined Dancing with the Stars, who would they want as their partner?

This week, Jill and Melissa are holding down the fort while Kelly is away—and things are anything but quiet. Jill shares updates from her busy travel schedule, including gearing up for a pickleball tournament that’s keeping her on the move in more ways than one.

The conversation takes a more meaningful turn as they talk about the importance of advocating for your own health and the realities of navigating the healthcare system.

Back in “life admin” mode, the moms dive into major spring energy: Kendall is in the middle of a move, Kenzie just completed one, and Maddie is calling in backup to tackle a long-overdue closet clean-out. With Riley also recently moving, it feels like everyone is constantly packing, unpacking, and reorganizing life all at once.

From moving boxes to mom duty to managing it all, Jill and Melissa reflect on how spring cleaning isn’t just about houses—it’s about life, schedules, and always being there to help.

Kelly and Melissa are holding it down this week while Jill is fully in “Cookie” mode, soaking up every second with her new grandbaby. In her absence, the moms dive into a topic they know all too well—what happens when your kids are chasing the same dream in the same field. How did they navigate competition and comparisons and keep things supportive at home.

Meanwhile, it’s a little chaos and a lot of laughs as Kelly gears up for her upcoming birthday plans, and Melissa deals with a much more immediate situation…a puppy who’s chewing everything in sight, including her headphones. Let’s just say the house is officially going into full puppy-proof mode.
