Send a message to the pod!
This week we investigate why Matt refuses to take a compliment or provide unsolicited feedback, whether or not anyone in the house has thrown up since last week, and why our toddler is observing daylight savings time weeks late. We get into how we are changing up our routine as we enter spring and how we ended up here in the first place. And it wouldn't be OWO if we didn't get to some voicemails (kinda?)

We keep this week's episode fast and loose, talking about everything from stomach bugs to the recent TikTok congressional sessions. Jo gives expert advice on how to take Instagram worthy spring photos and Matt covers recent sporting events that are grinding his gears. And it wouldn't be an episode of Oversharing if we didn't get to a few listener voicemails.
