We're back — and we have a lot to catch up on. Katy got stranded in Minneapolis mid-blizzard, solo parenting Cici in a hotel with no clean clothes while Matt escaped on the last flight out. Carol nearly didn't make it home either. It was a lot. We fi... more

We spent the day talking about Hamnet, getting a little reflective, and of course… channeling our inner Carolyn Bessette. Lots of laughs, some nostalgia, and the kind of random mother-daughter chats that somehow end up being way deeper than expected.... more

The not-so-subtle shade towards anyone of a different political party, the constant checking oneself out in the camera, the making fun of/criticizing Carol and their spouses, the entitlement and brand name dropping…feels so sad and yikes. I used to really enjoy listening, but it feels like they’re trying make this a Big Deal Podcast and have really lost the original depth and authenticity that made this podcast so sweet. I loved when Katy shared authentically about pregnancy and PP and feels lik... more
An updated review.
I normally really love you guys, and I will still keep listening, BUT three things really upset me in this latest episode.
Firstly, I think Katy telling your mom she has short stubby legs was so unnecessary. And I’m only a few years older than you so I’m not somebody really Old who’s making this comment, I would never say something like that to my mother on air or ever. Meanwhile, she does nothing but praise you.
Then, the way you opened that podcast talking about your do... more
Love this mother/daughter duo! We need an episode with all of Carol’s hosting tips for the 4th of July.
I have been meaning to write this for about a month. I was listening to your podcast and I was having a very, very, very bad day where I couldn’t stop crying, I was driving and crying… the story of your mother lugging her suitcase in the rain on her trip and the bad hotel room, I laughed so hard and it helped snap me out of what I was crying over, it temporarily fixed my problem and I appreciate it.
Have been binging the whole catalogue and just adore listening to you both! Perfect comfort podcast, with equal parts laughter and life advice—both mom and daughter have such valuable perspectives to share, and it’s just so fun to hear the genuine love and friendship you two have together!
My only small thing is I wish Katy would ease up a little on poking fun at Carol about words/phrases she uses, or how she pronounces things. Of course there’ll be some playful banter but feels like it just ha... more
