Listen, there are a lot of badass moms out there. They are stay at home moms. They are working moms. They come in all shapes and sizes. But is there one more magical than Molly Weasley? Mrs. Weasley basically parents the entire wizarding rebellion against Voldemort. And she teaches us some important lessons about love, commitment, acceptance, and fighting through your pain. She's truly badass and we aspire to be like her.

A fall chill in the air can mean only one thing! Costumes, trick or treating, and chocolate. Lots of chocolate. This week we talk about Halloween traditions, family costumes, and Neil Patrick Harris family's perfect costumes.

Hannah and Renee talk about how hard it is to draw boundaries. Especially when it comes to your parents and in-laws. Usually they are just trying to be kind and loving--and that's when it's hardest. But sometimes they like to give your kids a bag full of choking hazards for Christmas. Or they want you to stay at their house way past bedtime, causing epic meltdowns. We're not claiming to have any tips for saying "no" to your parents, but we can certainly give you a place to commiserate.

One of the weird paradoxes of parenting is the need to get away from your kids. Babysitters, kid swaps, grandparents, daycare, there are many possibilities, but what actually works.

Kids say the darndest things. At the worst possible moment. It's science. Hannah and Renee share some of their more cringeworthy stories.

Not to be confused with the debilitating man cold, a mom cold is an illness in which a mother gets just as sick as everybody and still has to go about her normal duties.

School is great. And also, legally, you have to educate your child. But what about when they're young? How do you handle preschool?

Sleep is necessary to survival. Especially when you're trying to recover from having a freaking baby. But parents don't get sleep--especially in the 4th trimester. We have to survive anyways. Coffee? Crying? Bargaining with your partner over who gets to sleep this time. Fighting with your spouse over who got less sleep. Listen, we've all been there.

In an effort to retain some of our pre-kids identity, we forgo any parenting topics this episode to talk about what really matters: Luke Skywalker and Middle Earth. Seriously, zero parenting content in this one. You have been warned.
