If you're familiar with Rachel Sobel of Whine and Cheezits, you know she lays it all out there, and keeps it really real in the momosphere. In this episode we sit down with Rachel and dissect why we're still mom-shaming in 2020, what it feels like to be on the receiving end of hate as a writer/author and very visible instagrammer, and what we can all do about it.

Join us for our favorite kind of chat: a raw, honest, funny, no-holds-barred look at what a Band of Mothers should look like for every mom, and what we can do to help that mission along.

Whether you're dealing with exclusion, gossip, a friend breakup, frustration with social media or you just love to hear ideas on how we can all be better, this episode is for you.

**************

Shayna and Tracey have been friends since the 8th grade – that’s over 25 years. After college, they each moved to separate coasts for a decade. They were reunited when they decided to leave big city life and settle down with their families in Denver, Colorado and Facebook told them their daughters are 3 weeks apart. After several play dates, some more childbirth, some unsuccessful pumping, and the overwhelming nature of mommy community boards, The Pump and Dump Show was born.

The show launched in 2012 in a bar in Northwest Denver and quickly grew to a bi-monthly, local staple for new moms to have a night out. In 2014, Shayna and Tracey took The Pump and Dump Show on its first national tour, and in September of 2019 The Pump and Dump Show expanded with more casts of real moms who continue to perform every month to audiences nationwide.
