Lizz and Elise are BACK on the podcast and Kelly is SO happy about it! You would think they talk all the time, but in reality the podcast is really the only time the two sisters get to chat. It's the perfect time as the new Car Mom website launches this week! Are they ready? Kinda... 

Kelly fills us in on her latest trip to New York City for work and some sister time. For one night she was the main character in the big city, with her sister's clothing approval of course. They befriended a bartender and tried to find Sydney a man. It was the perfect New York night. But not all is perfect in the family as Steptember is about to tear them apart.

Since summer is pretty much over, it's the perfect time to share Kelly's summer notes. She explains why red, white and blue shorts are always the perfect option for the kids' summer wardrobe. Plus, how she will be perfecting the summer cocktail next year. 

Now that we know the 'Dancing with the Stars' line-up, Kelly and Lizz are ready to make their predictions. Who do they think will end up in the top four? Get ready for a full breakdown each week!

Lizz is back! She's got a new little one with her and is ready to share the birth story. First, a quick catch up as the ladies prepare for the launch of the brand new website. They bought the purses for the launch giveaway, which was quite an experience. The family has also started a September walking challenge. Who will take the win? Then, an update on Kelly's first ever fantasy football league and the questionable trades she's already made. 

Then, it's on to the most lovely birth story you may ever hear. Lizz talks about how they went into the hospital without a name and ended up with one that wasn't even in their top picks. But the sweetest moment was when they revealed to Kelly the middle name they picked.

Before they go, it's time for a quick Last Three Transactions. There are a couple kid birthdays coming up so both Kelly and Lizz are getting ready. Plus, Lizz is continuing to find ways to keep her other two kids entertained while she's with the baby. 

Lizz is still on maternity leave, but that is just fine when Kelly has a LOT to talk about from a busy week! She's done it all from car seat conventions and kids' fishing tournaments to creating a fantasy football league. Yes, a new micro-hobby has been unlocked! Plus, getting ready for a new season of "Dancing with the Star" and two trips to New York. 

But it's not just about Kelly today, Side Hustle Summer continues! Today is a special one with the return of The Marketplace Mom, Olivia. She talked to Kelly and Lizz last summer about how she made selling on Facebook Marketplace her side hustle. Now, she has turned that into a thriving Instagram account with almost 20,000 followers! Olivia talks about what sells well on Facebook Marketplace, common seller mistakes, and scams to watch out for. 

Surprise! We've got a second episode for you this week and it's all about Side Hustle Summer. Three amazing ladies join the Carpool Podcast to talk about their side hustles. 

The kids are back to school, but Kelly isn't slowing down. The new website is almost ready to launch with a big celebration on September 10 in St. Louis. But don't worry; if you don't live near St. Louis, there will be another way you can be a part of the fun. You might even win a designer purse! Kelly is also headed to the "Kids in Motion" conference. What does one wear to a car seat convention? 

Good news, Lizz had her baby! Bad news, she's not quite ready to be back on the podcast yet. That means a semi-solo episode with Kelly and a special guest joining us at the end. Before the guest, Kelly catches her up on the best summer ever! The older the kids get, the more she wants to spend time with them. Plus, Kelly discusses the great advice she learned from Reels, getting into her golf dress era and a birthday recap. 

Got money questions for the modern millennial mom? Meet Money Talk Mal. She creates great content online centered around financial literacy and today she is our guest co-host on the podcast! She talks about the biggest money issues the modern millennial woman faces and her biggest piece of advice. Plus, we cover Last Three Transactions, Ditch the Drive-Thru and Kelly gives Mal a consult on her next car. 

As of the recording of this episode, there still is no new baby St. John. However, Lizz is out and Sam is in! This week on the podcast @MamaKnowsCarSeats is joining Kelly as co-host. While the baby hasn't arrived yet, it doesn't mean the family isn't expanding. Kelly traveled to Kentucky to meet the newest addition to the Car Mom family - her Ford Expedition! She tells us all about traveling to the factory and how Ford pulled a fast one on her that led to the most emotional moment ever at a car factory. 

There's one major story this week that MUST be discussed with Sam, the new list of best cars for carseats. Cars.com released their annual list and there is a LOT to talk about. Do Kelly and Sam agree with what they came up with? Let's just say they have some takes. While they are on Industry News, they have to talk about the new Tesla Y L. 

Could this be Lizz's final episode before baby? Things are starting to look like they could be happening any day now. She shares the latest on the newest St. John family member and how she's getting through these final weeks. Let's just say she is ready for baby #3 and completely over being pregnant! 

Kelly is continuing her "Best Summer Ever" and getting ready for two nights of ice cream socials. It's the start of a very busy week that ends with her traveling to Kentucky to see her next car roll off the production line. Oh, and she explains why she is taking pictures of all her meals—and it has nothing to do with social media. 

Got a good show Lizz should watch? She's getting her maternity leave watch list ready, and Kelly has one suggestion that scratches the DWTS itch. It's not the only help she plans to give her sister once the baby arrives; she has a whole plan for being the best sister ever over the next few weeks. 

Then it is time for a chat with Vanessa Wilkin from Enterprise. They were a major part of the Car Mom Auto Show this year and it's the perfect partnership! They talk about how many families forget that you don't have to buy a car based around a once or twice a year trip, you can always rent one! Plus, the importance of checking to see if you have the right rental reimbursement
