The tables have turned on Mirena! Now it's Holly's turn to ask Mandy any question she wants. Will they be uncomfortable? Will they be funny? Will they be thought-provoking? Will they be revealing? Yes, oh yes. They will most definitely be revealing, in every sense of the word. Teasers: Easter eggs (real ones - not Taylor Swifties), Viva Las Vegas, the ocean is fucking scary, existential moments remind us we are immortal...unlike vampires, and nude beaches aren't for everyone. Big prize goes to the person who can guess how many times Mandy covers her face in embarrassment. (Answer: 147)

As if sitting down with your ex-husband’s forever girlfriend every few weeks for a candid conversation wasn’t unconventional enough, in this episode Mandy gets to ask Holly any question she wants and Holly must answer. Anything is fair game - past relationships, childhood memories, deep self-reflection, and, of course, intimate details of her current relationship with Mandy’s ex. Get your mind out of the gutter, people. It’s not that kind of podcast. But it is raw enough that Holly needs a lot of liquid courage to get through it. So settle in, get yourself all cozy, and enjoy Mandy living out every ex-wife’s not-so-secret fantasy. (Payback is a B though and next time it’s Holly’s turn.)

Holly and Mandy analyze how the Netflix show “Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce” portrays life after marriage. Short answer? It’s a train wreck. Long answer? Listen to this episode. Longer answer? Listen AND watch along with us as we provide running commentary, with uncomfortable sex scenes and irritatingly inaccurate depictions of families going through divorce in abundance, not to mention impractical wardrobes. Not one person wearing a hoodie and leggings! WTF??

You want a revolution? How about a revelation? Let’s “normalize divorce”! Mandy and Holly talk about how history, society, laws, expectations, and personal inhibitions negatively affect the way divorce is viewed. And, obviously, they use “The Crown,” Marvin Gaye, Jon & Kate Plus 8, and Kasey Musgraves to help promote their “positive approach to divorce” campaign. Did they have to include Wayne Newton? Probably not, but it certainly makes it more interesting.

What's the Meme-ing of Life?
The Answer: Stanley Tucci, space trash, baby teeth, rescue dogs, leather tunics, Mullets and Marmots, fairy lurers, awesomeness, and petty theft.
Another question: Who are these Women of Memes and what are they talking about???

Holly (the girlfriend) and Mandy (the ex) wrap up 2020 from their divorced, single mom perspectives. Mostly it was a lot of crap. A little humor and some self-reflection, but mainly a lot of crap. Will 2021 be any better? Judging from the fact that this episode was recorded while a coup was attempted at the Capitol building, outlook not good (no wonder Holly’s mom was crying!). It shouldn’t be surprising who is this episode’s “fuck you forever” recipient. But then again, we are going to host a happy hour Zoom, so there’s some sunshine on the horizon!

Parenting after divorce, it’s a bit like a Dr. Seuss book - Are You My Other Mother? One Kid, Two Kid, Three Kid, Four Kid. Oh, the Faces You’ll Disappoint. Mr Brown Can Vacuum, Can You? It can all be an overwhelming and unexpected journey to parent in a blended family. How much trauma is ok before it screws up the kids for good? The ex and the girlfriend try and break it all down despite regular interruptions, day drinking (it’s Happy Hour somewhere, and always in our hearts), and the beautiful chaos of the holiday season.

Besides chocolate, wine, and girl time, what else helps you survive a divorce? Mandy (the ex) and Holly (the girlfriend) explore how MUSIC played a pivotal role in their lives while their marriages were ending and they were figuring out how the fuck to navigate their new selves. Listen along to the songs they picked that narrate their struggles and revelations. Can a Spotify playlist be too far away? Apologies in advance for the “dead puppies” comment.

Online Dating...The profiles. The excitement. The thrills. The possibilities. The reality: it sucks, especially if you are a single mom in her 40s. Swiping and texting and drinks, oh my.

Find out who gets an "F you forever" this time and, is there really anything wrong with vanilla sex?

Mandy is his ex wife and Holly is his girlfriend...and they actually really, really like each other. They have professional photos to prove it! In this episode they talk about a momentous event in their lives and all the weird and wonderful details involved. Let's just say it can be summed up in three words - Jews, jacuzzis and jumpers. Oh, and the phrase "F You Forever" - let's get that trending. Listen to find out what it all means.
