  • All about Melissa… Again

    Melissa please stop narrating every episode. All topics revolve around or revert back to you and your experiences. I want to hear from Kelly and Jill. Not about all things in your circle. We do not know these people such as BP, so please stop bringing them up. You have your own YouTube channel for that.

  • Me, myself and I

    Melissa please stop interrupting! Jill was talking about Kendall and fashion week and of course was interrupted by Melissa who wanted to let us know she was doing a tournament in

    L.A. please let others talk. We want to hear from everybody. You decide the topics mid podcast and control every conversation. There are 3 of you. Let’s share the conversation equally. The interruptions are out of control.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Once a Dance Mom, Always a Dance Mom!
Q: What are some of the must haves? What are the needed things that we might be forgetting?
The hosts recommend good pots and pans, a set of knives, a reliable vacuum or sweeper, and a comfortable mattress. Melissa also recommends a stand mixer, while Kelly says usefulness depends on personal habits and that expensive does not always mean better.
Life Lessons, Wedding Cakes & A World Gone Wild
Q: Do you have any advice for making that decision and figuring out where to start our lives?
The hosts say the couple should avoid continuing long distance if they can, consider moving to Montana where Kaia has a job lined up, look for work-from-home options, and save money as they start their life together.
Closet Clean-Outs & Pittsburgh Must-Dos
Q: What is one must-do recommendation for Pittsburgh and why would you suggest it?
The hosts propose starting with the incline for a historical-geography vibe, followed by dining at Lamont with a city-view, and then exploring Station Square to round out a classic Pittsburgh experience; the suggestion is framed as a practical, high-impact itinerary for a visitor.
Tennis Etiquette, Acupuncture, Aging & Always Being a Mom
Q: What are your favorite memories growing up with your parents?
The hosts share nostalgic stories of family vacations, Sunday dinners, and canasta nights, emphasizing togetherness and the warmth of family traditions.
Coffee, Controversy & Could We Do DWTS?
Q: With the new Dancing With The Stars season coming up, would any of you join the cast if asked?
All three hosts express excitement and openness to the idea, with one noting it would be a bucket-list achievement and others acknowledging the intensity but still enthusiastic about the possibility.
