Amy and Margaret are both comedians and moms of three — but that’s where the similarities end. In What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood they combine their twenty-year friendship, their comic sensibilities, their usually completely-opposite approaches to parenting, plus research and interviews with the experts. They laugh about their lives as moms, call out each other’s nonsense, and

then come up with concrete solutions. You'll laugh, you'll learn, and you'll come away feeling that maybe your slightly haphazard parenting isn't so bad after all.

Is it rational to still be mad about that time in second grade when the kid right in front of you took the last sprinkles at the ice cream social?

Is it reasonable to think just a little less of your childhood friend for serving Chex Mix at his wedding?

Ours is not to reason why. This episode isn't here to tell you whether you all should be maintaining these grudges so carefully. It's here to hold space for them all. Stay angry, Hellions!

How do we find support when our family of origin is no longer around or has otherwise rejected us? Francesca Royster, author of the memoir ⁠Choosing Family: A Memoir of Q***r Motherhood and Black Resistance⁠, explains the concepts of chosen family, finding joy in the everyday, and the resistance that is part of telling hard stories.

Margaret and Francesca discuss:
What inspired Francesca to write her memoir
What it's like to enter motherhood at an older age
The process of adopting her daughter

Taking pleasure in the reality of everyday life can really help you connect with loved ones in your family, chosen or blood-related. And telling stories about hardship and tragedy can actually help us gain perspective and have more hope about the world, not less.

How do we start a conversation about finances with our partners, especially when each of our households of origin might have thought about money quite differently?

Ramit Sethi's IWT, host of Netflix’s hit show How to Get Rich, and author of MONEY FOR COUPLES, offers practical tips for productively discussing money with your partner.

Ramit and Margaret discuss:

Why money conversations are so hard

The four money types: Avoider, Optimizer, Worrier, or Dreamer

How the messages we heard (or didn’t hear) about money growing up shape our adult decisions—and how to teach kids better.

Age-appropriate ways to talk to your kids about money, build financial literacy, and model strong values.
