  • 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.

Kids These Days (We Said It!)
Q: Hi, moms. My name is Holly, and I'm from Michigan. I have two girls aged six and three. What is your best parenting advice on raising sisters who are close into adulthood?
The hosts emphasize teaching each girl to have her own unique strengths and interests, supporting collaboration as a family, and reinforcing that siblings may argue but should feel like they are on the same team; emphasize lifelong friendship, celebrate each girl's individuality, and make family time a shared priority to strengthen bonds.
Down & Out, Quality Control & Carry-Ons
Q: Genevieve asks for tips on tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, strawberries, and melon in her garden.
Melissa suggests practical gardening approaches: amend soil, fertilize appropriately, trim bottom stems to improve air circulation, and plan to cook with tomatoes and use strawberries that come back yearly; she also endorses starting plants from seeds and taking a gradual approach to trying new varieties.
Prom Queens, Pyramid Scenes & Holiday Weekends
Q: Is pyramid planning as lengthy as you remember, and what happens during those hours?
Yes, it can take five hours or more of production and Abby discussing placements, with back-and-forth about who stands where, which often ends with multiple takes and delays before the pyramid is finally set.
Dance Moms: Did We Raise a Generation?
Q: Hi, my name is Julia, and I'm a huge fan of Dance Moms. My question is, when the girls went to their Dance Moms competitions, did they only compete routines for Dance Moms, or did they also compete other routines that weren't filmed for the show?
mostly it was just for Dance Moms with three or four routines, but occasionally Abby would want to add an extra number that wasn't shown on the show, and occasionally guest students from their home studios would perform if it involved a group number.
Impulse Buys, Life Advice & Wisdom Teeth Woes
Q: How did you budget in your 20s when money was tight, and what should a young adult prioritize to still have a social life and save for the future?
Focus on small, consistent saving, leverage employer-sponsored plans when available, and avoid lifestyle inflation by budgeting weekly for essentials, while carving out a little discretionary spend for social life to stay motivated.
