I don’t think we’ve ever laughed harder in an episode! We talk The White Lotus, 90’s nostalgia (and fun Simpsons fact that you probably didn’t know), 90’s marketing, NYC’s rat problem, Holiday GIF Guide and that’s all before we get to the news…

The One With OJ Simpson and Dead Duck Day – Brand New Information

Today Jay and Suzanne commemorate two infamous 1990s events – OJ Simpson’s Ford Bronco slow speed police chase and… Dead Duck Day? Plus, on this week’s Fibronostalgia – Did you know you could break a Hypercolor shirt? Jay and Suzanne know, because they did! And Suzanne’s fibronostalgia breaks the fourth wall to examine the meaning that nostalgia has in our lives. Follow Jay on Instagram & Twitter, and Suzanne on Instagram!

I chatted with Luce of @thesoberbrownqueen and this was one of my all time favorite conversations on the podcast so far. She’s normalizing not waiting until alcohol becomes a huge problem in your life, and that’s EXACTLY it.

Also, our Real Sober Moms bonus episodes continue with Kerry! She’s still answering a lot of questions about what sobriety means to her, and I think this conversation is important because it’s where so many sober/sober-curious moms find themselves.

What to Do When a Friendship Doesn’t Survive Your Sobriety (with my Mom!) – The Sober Mom Life

One of the biggest worries that newly sober women have is how it will affect their friendships. We’re often told that the friendships that ‘matter’ will withstand our shift to an alcohol-free lifestyle. And the drinking buddies? Yes, they might fade away. But honestly? It’s not that simple. Friendships are tricky, and sobriety can bring a lot of friendship challenges to the surface. Today my therapist mom joins me to share her own story of a deep friendship that did not survive her choice to be sober. We’ll talk about what’s really needed from both friends in order to make the shift when sobriety becomes a part of your life, and we’ll lay out what to expect as you navigate this life change within friendships so that you feel as prepared as you can be.

SOREL KINETIC WATERPROOF BOOTS

My favorite ever snow boots from a few years ago are back and even cuter! It’s taking everything in me not to order them – I can’t justify it because mine are in perfect condition, even after years of wear.
