Hosts: Stefanie Navarro & Meredith Hill
Run Time: 50 Mins

Theme: Domestic Chaos, Sean Diddy Combs Court Case Updates,  Trump VS Must, Crazy animal antics, AITA, Book Club Review! 

Welcome back to This Is My Circus — the podcast where parenting is chaotic, pets are weird, and the true crime tea is scalding hot.

This week, we’re raising butterflies (sort of), rescuing frogs who refuse to stay rescued, fixing toilets like certified DIY queens, and confessing to powdering our boobs in a heatwave. Nothing is off-limits in this household.

We’re also diving into the messiest headlines:

• Simone Biles vs. Riley Gaines: The Olympic icon claps back, but fans aren’t having it — and her old tweets aren’t helping either.
• Diddy’s Trial Gets Weirder: Is he mouthing threats in court? Stephanie Soo says yes, and now she’s had to change hotels eight times.
• Trump vs. Musk: The Twitter breakup you didn’t know you needed.
• Lizard corpses, snake sightings, and... zebra airlifts? Yup. It’s that kind of episode.

🐾 Also this week:

• A dead bird isn’t the only wildlife drama on our porches
• RIP to a pet and the awkward cremation aftermath
• Should you give a dog back to the family that dumped it?
• ADHD hacks for free national park access (no gatekeeping here!)

📚 Book Chat: That’s Not My Name by Megan Lally

We’re OBSESSED. This twisty emotional thriller gave us all the feels — suspense, heartbreak, and ugly crying on the floor. If you love dual POVs, slow-burn reveals, and a book boyfriend who will wreck you emotionally, this one’s for you.

🛑 Spoilers ahead. (And bring tissues.)

Rating: 9.5/10
⭐️ Themes: Identity, survival, trauma, redemption
💔 Side effects: Uncontrollable sobbing, book hangover

🎙️ Segment Highlights:

• “Am I the A-hole?” this week: A woman adopts a dog from a shelter. Then the original owners want it back. Would you give him up?
• Butterfly updates (spoiler: one of them didn’t make it, and the other won’t leave)
• Why powder on the bathroom floor is totally justified
• That time we realized we should’ve been lion cuddlers

🧼 Laundry Detergent Deep Dive:

Tell us your laundry detergent loves. Do the scents actually last? Do we care if we smell like fruity pebbles? The answer may surprise you.

📖 Next Week’s Read: The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren
