Just Because I Love You

Sheesh Karla, it's been a minute hasn't it? If you're new here, we call our listeners Karla! In this longer (for us) episode we update you on what we've been up to, and what's being going on the last 6 months. I (Marla) hate to spoil anything by writing details here so I'll keep it vague. As a side note, we aren't sure how often we'll be recording, but we likely (definitely) won't be publishing a weekly episode at this point, and you'll find out why when you listen. If you've stuck with us during this sabbatical of sorts, we appreciate you!

Hey Karla, that's your name when you're listing to the Just Because I Love You podcast! We are all hunkered down wintering a snow storm so today's episode was prerecorded LAST SUMMER. Part one was released in September 2021.  Today we're doing blind reactions to memes and other phrases we've found on social media. We never know where they are going to go topic-wise so be prepared for a little whip-lash.

I don't know about you, Karla (that's what we call you, dear listener!) but ever since the November 4th's new moon in Scorpio, the sisters have had a desire for transformation. With our double dose of Astro-energy, burning sage, and crystals, we simply can't ignore our drive to fall for the most ridiculous claims out there. So recite a chant and light a candle while we dive into a new age look at 2 Timothy 3.

Hey Karla! It's been nearly 4 weeks since our last episode. There's been a lot more sickness since Christmas and that's made it difficult to all get together. Hopefully that's behind us for now! In this episode we introduce ourselves, Tabby tells us her birth story, and we give an overview of our podcast and the topics we tend to discuss. If you enjoy sharing our episodes with friends, this one will help give them a good intro as to what we're all about, why we do what we do, and talk about what we talk about. Think of this as a reintroduction/refresher to our podcast with better sound quality, and more clarification as to what we 4 sisters are all about! (Season 1 Pilot did not turn out the greatest if we're being honest.) We hope you enjoy this kickstart to Season 2! Also, if you're new here, we've named out listener(s) Karla so when we say, "hi Karla," or "Karla sent us an email," we're talking about a listener! :) We've missed this time together, and we want you to know if you don't have a community like the one we've built (yet) pull up a seat and join ours!

If you're new to the "Just Because I love You podcast" you'll figure out quickly that we've named our listeners Karla! Welcome Karla, new and old! On today's episode we answer a few questions that Karla has submitted over the last few months. We don't get to all of them so our goal is to answer the rest at the beginning of Season 2. Tabby experiences contractions in this episode so you'll notice she stops talking and passes the baton to someone else fairly often. Does baby Warren make his arrival on this episode? You'll have to listen to find out! We also give some 2022 family goals and predictions! We're all ill with the sickness of the century so this episode was recorded on Streamyard. Hopefully everything comes through clearly. By next week we have plans to be together again! It's been a very long 2 months of sickness for our families so we're all hoping this grand finale illness closes out our sick season! Thank you for spending 1 whole year with us, Karla. December 23rd is the 1 year anniversary of our pilot episode! We hope you enjoy this episode and frankly we hope it makes sense because this illness has our brains pretty foggy! Sooooo grab those last minute gifts you need to wrap and join us for the Season 1 Finale of the "Just Because I Love You" podcast! Merry Christmas, Karla, from our family to yours!

Hey Karla! If you're a new listener, we've named you Karla so welcome new Karla. If you're a seasoned Karla, welcome back sister! Today you're in for an extra special Christmas episode. This one is almost double the length of our normal episodes so Merry Christmas to you, Karla! Don't say we never do anything nice for you! ;) If you're still lying to your kids about Santa you may want to avoid listening to this episode around them. We'll be talking about, well, Santa, and how some Christians seem to think Christmas without Santa gets rid of the magic! We're here to tell you, that's simply NOT true, and we'll talk about how Christmas is still just as captivating without telling your kids some jolly guy broke into your house. lol So if you listen and you still plan on upholding your tradition of lying to your kids, don't blame us for calling you out. Things in this episode might get you heated Karla (if they haven't already) so turn down your fireplace, toss off the blanket, and add a few ice-cubes to your hot chocolate. You're in for a real Christmas treat! Join us on another episode of the "Just Because I Love You" podcast. Also, don't forget to follow us on our socials and submit questions for our upcoming Q&A episode NEXT WEEK! That episode will be our Season 1 finale. Then we'll be taking 2 weeks off with our Season 2 episode set to air on January 5th!

Hey Karla, today's episode is about the tragic school shooting that took place in Oxford, MI, one state away from where we live. While many are grieving the loss of 4 Oxford High School students (Tate Myre, Madisyn Baldwin, Hana St. Juliana, and Justin Shilling) others are blaming the presumed bullies of the shooter (Ethan Crumbley). At the time of this recording we didn't have many details surrounding the case, but since then we've discovered that school officials had met with Crumbley the day before the shooting for "concerning behavior," and met with Crumbley AND his parents for a separate issue just hours prior to the shooting. It has been revealed that the shooting was premeditated (journal and video on cell phone) and Crumbley's father had just purchased the gun a few days before the shooting. I've linked a few articles below so you have a place to pull info from if you're new to the story. On this episode we also talk about teaching our children how to deal with bullies, and we address the frankly stupid comments people made on the issue of bullying. Take a deep breath, and join us on another episode of the "Just Because I Love You" podcast. Don't forget to follow us on our socials and submit questions for our upcoming Q&A episode!

Today, we combine forces with "The Comedian Next-Door" (also known as Tabby and Mandy's dad, John Branyan and Peaches) to talk about what it's like to be part of/survive/thrive in a family where truth trumps feelings. Originally answering a question from Karl/Karla, we dive into whether Mandy really is as "devastatingly harsh" in real life as she is online, what will likely happen when you start building a truth-speaking family culture, and debate what is really growing in John's shoes.

*** Episode Warning: we talk about some heavy topics in this episode. Read the description for more details.***

Karla! How you been? Today was a day. We weren't sure where this episode was going to end up, but we pulled it together and we think it's decent enough. lol All joking aside, we touch on some heavy topics in this one so you may want to listen with headphones or without your kiddos around. We discuss murder, obviously, and sexual abuse. Megan isn't with us today and by the grace of God all the kids we put down for naps ACTUALLY SLEPT including Finley and Aria who shared a room. Aria even woke up before Finley and we managed to get her out of the room before Finley woke up. Finley slept another hour after that!! I (Marla) digress. Anyways, we don't go into much detail so this episode should be fine, even for the squeamish. So grab a seat and your cold coffee, and try to forget about the fact that Thanksgiving is in 15 days.

Idols come in many shapes and forms but what does motherhood idolatry look like? Are there blanket rules we can follow to keep ourselves in check? With Marla tuning in from Vegas and plenty of snack-related interruptions, listen in to our conversation and travel down the aisles of Walmart with us. It's Just Because I Love You day!
