I SHAKE MY HEAD

Is the sound of melting snow outside your office the Pavlovian bathroom trigger you never saw coming? Have you ever found yourself contemplating whether Kegels are a bladder workout, a ticket to youthful glory, or is the secret to conquering midlife just to “Kegel it away”. 

Is Firehouse Subs worth all the hype, or is Samantha still stuck on its sweet bread? Have you ever bought no-name fruit cups only to regret your thrifty choices like Lisa? 

Are school zones and speed limits a baffling concept because as a Gen Xer, didn’t we all just walk ourselves to kindergarten and hope for the best? Do you miss the days when counting back change was a basic life skill instead of a lost art? 

Who would narrate your life, Morgan Freeman, Alanis Morrissette, or a hilariously foul-mouthed female comedian?

Do you suffer through silent moments, or do you talk nonstop like Lisa because silence is just too awkward?

Tune in to I Shake My Head for relatable chaos, snack debates, and every Gen X memory you didn’t know you had plus the countdown to the 500th episode!

Are you obsessed with fruit cups… or is it just the syrupy sugar you’re really after? Does your inner 9-year-old still sneak sugar whenever possible? And honestly, should fruit cups come in adult-sized portions, or are they forever stuck in the kids’ lunchbox lane?

Do you side-eye bowling shoes, haunted by the ghosts of foot fungus past… or do you bring your own like a professional bowler?

Is the bro code really stronger than the sisterhood, or are women just better at calling each other out?

Are you here for daytime TV drama, hate-watching reality shows, and wondering why obvious lies make you irrationally angry?

And be honest… is your biggest fear that God, Santa, or your late mom are somehow judging your bedroom decisions?

Plus: the audacity of the mediocre man, the chaos of midlife overconfidence, and why some people can talk their way out of absolutely anything.

Tune in for all these burning questions, a little midlife chaos, and a reminder that sometimes the only appropriate response to life is to shake your head.

What’s the boy band that had you crying at concerts—NSYNC,

Is late-night water drinking causing you to wake up to a shooting sound from your plastic bottle, or just more trips to pee? Can scalloped potatoes really vibe with meatloaf, or is the TikTok crowd eating their sides all wrong? Are you brave enough to take the Pillsbury roll challenge, or are you worried it’s going to explode in your face?

 Have you ever wondered if Mahjong, Candy Crush, or that occasional Wordle streak is boosting your brain power—or simply making you a “dumber” midlifer? Did you stab your way through the headlines, or

Would you wash your underwear in a hotel coffee maker…or is that travel hack where you even draw the line?

Why does buying one grapefruit suddenly make Lisa believe she’s entering her “grapefruit girl era” — only to discover it tastes like citrus betrayal?

And who keeps spreading the myth that there’s a bra so comfortable you’ll “forget you’re wearing it”? (We have questions. Strong ones.)

Also up for debate:

Are Mother Nature and God in a group chat coordinating snowstorms?


Who is brushing their teeth with room temperature water and why are they like that?


Does toothpaste have to be minty, or have we just accepted Big Mint’s agenda?


And when it comes to AI, is it actually dangerous…or just the newest thing we’ve decided to blame for everything?

This is midlife. The filter is gone. The judgments are loud. And the laughs are constant.

If you love everyday observations, unfiltered opinions, and the kind of commentary that says what you’re already thinking just louder, then I Shake My Head with Lisa and Sam is the podcast you didn’t know you needed.

New episodes every Friday. Midlife judgments. Zero apologies. Lots of laughs.

Is camel toe back…or are pants just fighting women now?

Why are mediocre men walking around with the confidence of a Marvel superhero?

Frozen canned juice disappearing like it’s not a full on Canadian childhood emergency?

Also, why does skin require a maintenance schedule, a budget, and emotional resilience?

This week Lisa and Sam tackle:

• The unflattering photo conspiracy (IT’S THE ANGLES!)

• Bathroom procrastination, why do we wait like it’s a competitive sport?


• 80s nostalgia that now qualifies as historical evidence

• And the ultimate debate: Google vs. ChatGPT vs. unverified Lisa Logic

25+ years of friendship. Professional midlife judgment. We say what you’re thinking, just louder!

Lisa has declined angel wings in the afterlife, citing fashion concerns.

Samantha believes this may impact her final destination.

If you’ve ever:

• Judged someone silently in a public bathroom

• Treated true crime like a life skills course

• Considered compression stockings a personal attack

• Or described a sandwich as “fake teeth friendly”

You are our people.

This week on I Shake My Head, two midlife women overanalyze everything, heaven, hygiene, aging, and Google search results, so you don’t have to.

Smart. Ridiculous. Slightly inappropriate. Midlife comedy at its finest.

Are you mystified by the cult of the shankle those brave ankles emerging prematurely at the first hint of spring? Can midlife women find a place to shop when everything is cropped and caters to the under-25 crowd? Is plaid ever a good look, or do you feel like an accidental lumberjack in the changing room? Is “you’re aging well” ever actually a compliment, or is the audacity too much to bear? Is your snack routine leading you to crunchy disappointment? Lisa dives into her love-hate relationship with creamy dill veggie chips. Are they really healthier, or just a caloric trick in a “healthy” package? Lisa has questions about egg yolk and whether humans should worry about the color (and smell) of their own poop. Is sending “per my last email” just a passive-aggressive way to get people’s attention or the best tool in your Monday morning arsenal? Which retro insults do you want to bring back: twerp, scallywag, or the ever controversial twat-waffle?

Join Lisa and Sam for hilarious banter, surprising revelations, and the honest truth about surviving midlife fashion, food, and friendship all while shaking your head at the absurdities of everyday life.

Is your bra secretly plotting the course of your entire day, transforming from trusted friend to rib-crushing adversary before lunch? When exactly did weekend comfort boil down to finding the least mean-spirited bra in the drawer? Could men survive the daily struggle of strapping into something supportive and tight for 12 hours? Why do front pleats, bell bottoms, and neon keep coming, and is Samantha right to warn Lisa against making a pleated pants comeback? Sam is calling out the audacity of men taking credit where none was due and squeezing out the women who were the ones making history. Are you and your BFF spiraling into irreconcilable TV incompatibility over “The Pit” and “Chicken Sisters”? Are you also checking your look from every angle before heading out, curious if your “gobble” is gobbling unevenly? Can you spot fake teeth or fake eyelashes, and do you believe anyone’s ever been fooled by a perfect uniboob? Are 4,000 or 6,000 celebrity “conquests” fascinating or just disgusting, and why do women get shamed while men get crowned “studs”? Why was there carpet in the kitchen AND bathroom in the 70s, and how did we not notice the smell?

Join us for laughs, nostalgic tangents, tiny annoyances, and real talk on everything from slipper allegiances to pleat fashion crises. It’s another episode with Lisa and Samantha where the only guarantee is you’ll find yourself shaking your head and loving every minute of it.

Do you question society’s hygiene habits? Is midlife really just about hating change, or is it about finding perfection in the same old experiences? Could your steak disappointment actually be a sign of maturity? Are you baffled by new bathroom behaviors—why are there four girls in one stall, and is it drugs or treats? Can you really trust squirrels, and have you ever refused to lend out a single one of your 500 cookbooks? Do you obsessively check the weather app like Lisa, or have you reached the age where every ache and pain means you’re moving to Tylenol Arthritis? Do signs that say “Don’t flush your tampons” make you ponder the state of humanity, or do you question why “No shirt, no shoes, no service” needs to exist at all? How do you feel about world leaders who act like they’re playing Monopoly with actual countries, or new laws that sound straight out of The Handmaid’s Tale? Are you scandalized by people who don’t rinse the peanut butter knife before dipping it in the jam, or do you live on the edge like Samantha? How would you curate a Gen X time capsule, United Colors of Benetton or Ocean Pacific, Pop Rocks or Fun Dip? And just how many more winged celebrity tributes will creep you out on Instagram? 

Join us on our socials, subscribe to the podcast and celebrate your quirks because everyone’s invited to the party (as long as you bring your own soap on a rope and clean your knife).

Is impatience really just a desire for efficiency, or is Lisa in denial about her lack of patience? Do you get annoyed by slow elevators, drive-throughs that don't zigzag fast enough, or people who don't reply right away? Is it really being a “Karen” to want your new teeth just right, or is Lisa getting kicked out of the denturist's office for demanding perfection? Can refusing to appreciate French onion soup really divide friendships? Are book people annoyingly braggy about their TBR piles? Is it time for midlife women everywhere to finally take a stand, call out rudeness, and tell folks to “sit down and shut up”? Are you fed up with every daily task needing a new app, or do you embrace the future of smartphone technology? Is “because I said so” truly the unbeatable trump card in arguments, and should parents everywhere bring it back as the ultimate conversation stopper? Do you have a secret hang-up about refusing to finish milk, pop, or coffee down to the last drop, or is Lisa alone in her bottom-of-the-bottle paranoia? Is the male version of Karen actually a David or a Dan, and do you believe male coworkers deserve their own meme status? Should all food be takeout, or has Uber Eats gone too far? 

Tune in for all these head-shaking questions, plus listener shout-outs, cookie debates, and more hilarious midlife reminders to keep shaking your head at life’s quirks!
