Between dodging disaster, hiking misadventures, and the kind of unfiltered joy only a Downhill Fast reunion can bring, this episode delivers it all. Grab your earbuds, hydrate, and prepare for the chaos.

This week's episode kicks off with Tamara's Mom entering the chat. Well more specifically reading out loud the group text while Tamara was driving. It could have gone downhill fast, but luckily everyone found it hilarious. Rheannon's family had friendly competition of who could make the best tri-tip. Although no formal voting, there was a clear favorite. After multiple days of intense porch building Rheannon was finally able to enjoy the newly constructed porch with family. Tamara miscalculates making sandwiches for her niece and nephew and it was way too much PB&. Precautions were taken to protect the clothes though. Warning this episode does have spoilers for the Last of Us and Wheel of Time. Rheannon and Tamara enjoy a TV corner to nerd out a little bit, and it goes downhill fast.  

This week's episode kicks off with a downhill fast story that involves a small mishap with the baby. It should be said that no baby was hurt, and really a baby was only startled. Poor Rheannon lost track of who all was in the bed, and perhaps mistook a baby in a bouncer for a cat. Tamara tagged along when her brother and niece were getting hair cuts at Great Clips. It maybe wasn't a great hair cut, but it was worth the $20. Tamara and Rheannon like the tv show The Last of Us for different reasons, but they agree that it is filmed beautifully. Tamara makes a birthday suggestion of having mustaches to go along with the cowboy hats. The mustaches reminded Tamara about a time that she went white water rafting, and much like this episode it goes downhill fast. 

This episode kicks off with Tamara's fail at "Squid Ink" pasta. It was not good, but new cooking attempt was made and squid was eaten. Although, it was a very smelly cooking process. Rheannon is weighing her options to bake a birthday cake or buying a birthday cake. Tamara supports both options, but at the end of the day what brings the most joy is the most important. Rheannon has been reading a story to her toddler about potty training, and it really came to fruition downhill fast. Traffic at 10 PM is somehow more aggressive than normal rush hour traffic, and Tamara was more tired for it. The episode closes with a tv corner, and let's just say long story long it goes downhill. 

This weeks episode kicks off with a couple orange drinks and compliments for Rheannon. She both has adorable children and is building an epic play structure. Rheannon officially loses her first workout challenge and Tamara is excited to dish up the next cooking challenge. Rheannon puts a timeline on Tamara having to cook her homemade squid pasta. Tamara tried doing some energy work and is feeling very tired. Rheannon has a lot of doubts about the whole thing. The new treadmill ended up caused some problems for Rheannon, and let's just say that it went downhill fast. 

Rheannon is upgrading the office, and the toddler is loving drawing on the chalk wall. However, the toddler now thinks that she can draw on all surfaces. Tamara enjoyed exploring a Chef Store. Some good finds, but also she bought so many energy drinks. Tamara finally made good on her workout challenge lost and made a kale salad. Rheannon has taught her daughter a new trick in the kitchen for when she helps cook. Instead of saying no to everything, as a two year old do, Rheannon has taught her daughter to say yes chef when they are cooking together. Tamara was stuck in line waiting for lemonade, while too many people were taking shots. Fun times as a fundraiser could have gone downhill fast.

Tamara is very excited about her new lamp, even if Rheannon thinks it is over engineered. John makes an appearance on the pod, and like a good dog doesn't bark but hangs out. Tamara lost a week of the workout challenge, so Rheannon decides her cooking challenge for the next week. Tamara is enjoying her canned boba drink, but is not sure what types of balls are in the boba. Rheannon has been working hard on building a new fence with new tools and a laser level. Probably should have used some safety goggles, but luckily no serious injuries. Rheannon does her best to motivate Tamara in the workout challenge by outlining what her cooking challenge will be if she looses again. Rheannon is fighting for her life with two kids adjusting to day lights saving. 

This week's episode kicks off with Tamara sharing a fun visit with her friend and her twin boys. Twins are wild because they can learn from each other and you can see them always watching. Rheannon was coasting this week winning the work out challenge. Tamara tried to work out with new shoes, but was gifted two right shoes. Rheannon is struggling with her daughter learning bad tricks from the cats. Tamara is struggling to keep her apple watch charged and working out for the workout challenge. It is going downhill fast.

This episode starts off with some modification to the workout challenge due to Tamara having an ear infection in both ears. Rheannon is crushing it, while Tamara is struggling being sick. Tamara does a run down of the difference of the book and movie of Wicked. Additionally, a small rabbit hole around the history of the movie The Wizard of Oz. Tamara waited to watch Wicked until after she saw the play on Broadway. She took a train from Boston to spend 10 hours in New York City to see specifically Mary Kate Morrissey. There was also a trip to a museum and Stardust Diner, but the big excitement for the trip was to see Wicked. From the end of the play there was only 59 minutes before Tamara's flight back to Boston finished boarding. Would she make it? Or does the trip go downhill fast? Not to mention the night skiing or the trip to Vegas. 

In this week’s Downhill Fast, Tamara and Rheannon reunite for a live, in-person episode! Tamara’s journey to get to Rheannon was one for the books from forgetting her wallet to battling the elements, it was anything but smooth sailing. Meanwhile, Rheannon shares updates on the ski trip hotel stay (yes, Tamara eventually made it there… 24 hours later). But the real plot twist? Tamara’s book club discussion took a turn for the spicy! 😏 Tune in for all the chaos, travel misadventures, and unexpected book club revelations.
