We thought long and hard about making the move since we don't want to lose ANY of our listeners and hope you will find us and resubscribe. It's gonna be better over there, we promise. If you have a hard time finding the show, don't hesitate to pop onto fb and ask for the new location. | 9/25/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Customer Reviews
Engaging and lighthearted!
Funniest. Moms. Ever. Love their blog and so glad they are doing a podcast now- I like the casual banter of these women, like they are having me over for coffee and chit-chat. Definitely a 'short and sweet' little break for me!
Entertaining and Informative!
I agree with others, this podcast is like a great chat with your friends. Enjoyable listen and I always learn someting new.
I love the humor that comes from real life!
I am fairly new to this podcast but I love when I laugh out loud about real life. This podcast proves this. I find myself laughing out loud a lot (usually in the most inappropriate places like umm. . sitting in a public bathroom listening to my ipod.) I love when I have to explain why I am laughing. . . It is nice to know there are other people out there that have the same sense of humor as I do. Life is funny and it great to see others think that way too.I look forward to new shows. Keep up the great work!
