Moms on the Rocks
April and Catherine are the kind of moms that are only slightly mortified by your side eye. We drink, and talk, and thrift shop because we think that makes us responsible but probably just brings in the bed bugs.
Catherine & April welcome special guest commentators to discuss the pros and cons of sending your kid to the couch. Also, the world's best pot cookie story.
April's kids are all booked up with summer camp activities. Catherine thinks that's bullshit. Discuss.
Oh mer gerd, it's the holidays! Catherine and April talk about being in multi-religious families that celebrate with Santa and Taconukkah. You know, the 4th night of Hanukkah when you eat tacos.
So how much lying is acceptable, really?
Also, Catherine also unveils a very special belching party trick.
That time Catherine came to visit April which led to drinking and podcasting and digging into the reason why Catherine was in town – which was a horrific and violent death.
How are we supposed to talk to our kids about death, much less violent and sudden death of people they love? Yep, it gets heavy.
Except for the moment Catherine compared the inevitability of death to George Michael’s bum. It IS a perfect circle, people.
This week on Moms on the Rocks, April and Catherine disagree yet again, on the importance of the role of pets in our children's lives. Please join us for this discussion and the sordid tale of Philbert the tumor ridden, flying snake.
Our favorite book as young ladies, Catherine and April ponder if our own tween girls are ready for talk of periods, dubious bust increasing exercises, and atheists. Also, Judy Blume ROCKS. Bill Cosby, notsomuch.
Wherein Catherine and April disagree, like, the most ever. Also discussed: Are bunk beds evil or perfect? How hot is Matthew McConaughey? And let's not even talk about Woody Allen.
The one podcast we hope our children never hear, Catherine, the OG West Coast mom and April, the West Coast transplant mom discuss the whole marijuana thing and if we should treat it like a fine merlot when discussing with the kiddos. Yes, it gets weird.
Are we screwing them up or giving them mad coping skilz? From there, April and Catherine devolve into cursing, discussing French vs. American parenting and how amazing "The Bad News Bears" was and why maybe our kids should see it no matter how inappropriate. Oh, also, who loves our kids more: Us or our parents?
Catherine and April discuss the pros (fun, friends, smarts) and cons ($$$, the raping) of college in this day and age. Wherein the ladies also learn how prepared they are for the next life stages of not only their kids, but their own darn selves. Hint: Notsomuch.
That time Catherine and April couldn't decide if they were setting a good example or exposing the kids to way too much. MOTR on periods, booze, sex and the next great Fox animated star, “Harry Vagina.”
Bourbon was being consumed, why do you ask?
Welcome to our first ever Moms on the Rocks podcast where April and Catherine get a wee bit tipsy and talk parenting.
We're starting at the very beginning here, so naturally our topic for today's podcast is babies. While we sip a sparkling Rose, we cover the following and more: What's up with baby nurses? Why do we like red-headed babies so much? Are babies inherently evil? What do Taco Bell & C-sections have in common?
