Middle Aged Millennial MILF

This week, my friend Chelsea joins me to talk about the two things that age you faster than the sun: motherhood and truly terrible jobs. From diaper blowouts to bosses who think "we're a family here" is a perk, we're swapping war stories, laughing through the trauma, and reminding each other why quitting mid-shift is sometimes self-care.

This week I'm unpacking my movie obsessions—from unhinged teen thrillers to '90s rom-coms that aged like milk. I confess to some highly questionable crushes (yes, I thought Adam Sandler was hot—fight me) and call out every film that lied to us about love, life, and what a high schooler looks like. Grab your popcorn and your shame—this one's cinematic chaos.

Once a Hollywood screenwriter behind blockbusters like Sahara, TD Donnelly traded red carpets for rewrites and big studios for indie storytelling. We dive into how he pivoted from the glitz of screenwriting to the grit of self-publishing, why he walked away from the Hollywood machine, and what he's learned about creative freedom, rejection, and reinvention along the way. Spoiler: there's less sand, more soul.

True crime keeps me sane, my husband writes thrillers, and I read like my life depends on it—because honestly, it might. This week I'm spilling the tea on my toxic relationship with murdery books, the absurd stuff readers actually believe, and what it's like being married to a man who plots fictional killings over breakfast. Spoiler: I sleep with one eye open and edit with the other.

You may know Christi-an as the soothing voice guiding you through mindful movement on the Calm app—but there's so much more beneath that serene surface. We talk intentional living, embodied presence, and what it's like helping people find stillness in a world that won't sit still. (Also yes, her voice is actually that calming in real life.)

If my life were a movie, the soundtrack would be absolute fire—a chaotic mix of power ballads, sad girl anthems, and the occasional unhinged banger that makes no sense but somehow works. In this episode of Middle-Aged Millennial MILF, I break down the essential tracks that define my life—from the angsty teenage years (hello, dramatic breakup songs) to the "I've got my life together… kinda" era.

We're talking about the songs that transport you straight back to a moment, the ones that make you feel like the main character, and the absolute trash bops you'd never admit to loving but still scream-sing in the car. Plus, I'll give you some tips on curating the ultimate playlist for your own chaotic, beautiful existence.

So grab your headphones, turn up the volume, and get ready to laugh, cringe, and maybe even discover your new personal anthem. Because life's too short for bad music—and I refuse to have a boring soundtrack.

Adventure guide by day, master manipulator by night—Christian De La Torre brought wilderness grit and reality TV charm to The Traitors U.S. As a proud member of the infamous Traitors trifecta, he bluffed, bonded, and backstabbed with a megawatt smile and a suspiciously good memory. Let's break down how this former Army veteran and nature-lover became one of the game's most unpredictable playe

He schemed, he betrayed, and he definitely kept us guessing! Blake from The Traitors Australia joins the podcast to spill the secrets, the strategy, and the sheer chaos of life inside the castle. Was it all part of his master plan, or did things take an unexpected twist? Tune in for deception, drama, and maybe even a redemption arc… if we're lucky. 🔪😈 #BlakeToTheBone #TraitorOrTreasure

In this episode of Middle-Aged Millennial MILF, we're talking about Sam from The Traitors—aka the guy who actually played the game with integrity (shocking, I know). While the Traitors were out here backstabbing, scheming, and collecting their Oscar nominations for Best Performance in Deception, Sam was holding it down for the Faithfuls—aka the poor souls trying to survive the mind games without losing their sanity.

Huzzah! This week, we welcome the comedic chaos of Niblick and Mashie, the father-son jesting duo and self-proclaimed Heralds of Myebumm from the local Renaissance festival. These two have spent years perfecting the fine art of roasting each other in historically inaccurate accents, confusing peasants with Shakespearean dad jokes, and possibly inventing the medieval equivalent of "pull my finger." Join us as we discuss festival shenanigans, generational comedy, and whether tights are truly a privilege or a punishment. Warning: This episode may contain excessive puns, unsolicited jousting advice, and an uncomfortable amount of lute enthusiasm. Grab your goblet, your sense of humor, and prepare thyself for a proper belly laugh. Verily, 'tis a jolly good time!
