Sarah Talks Schmidt

26 episodes - English - Latest episode: almost 4 years ago - ★★★★★ - 36 ratings

99% of what you will hear is total schmidt, but I have a feeling you’ll still have a blast. Listen in to hear about my absurd opinions, stories involving my dog named Kitty and my "famous" #auntcin, and deep dives into pop culture and weird news (who doesn't love weird news).You might be thinking, "who is this lady??" Well I'm a 30-something blonde lady who catfishes her coworkers by wearing CC cream and mascara on a daily basis; #goodreads nerd; living the corporate life by day and creative life by night (before 10 PM); lover of all things leopard; never lie to me because I’m #nancydrew; pop culture enthusiast; birthday obsessed; and probably eating cheez-its and watching reality TV right now.

Schmidt! It's a pandemic, baby

May 26, 2020 04:00 - 29 minutes - 20.2 MB

Schmidt, where the hell have you been?  Listen, it’s a pandemic baby!  I’ve been wearing the same quarantine lewk nearly every day, I no longer blow dry my hair, and I mostly don’t know what day it is.  I talk where I am and what I’ve been doing.  Mostly fishing, chopping wood, picking fruit, decorating my house.  Oh, not in real life.  In animal crossing.  I like to say I’m an animal crossing influencer, but for that, I’d have to have less trees, only one color flower, and my house has to m...

Future Schmidt

March 31, 2020 04:00 - 32 minutes - 22.2 MB

Where will be when these times are finally over (don't worry we're all alive in the version I'm predicting)? Listen, I'm trying to make sure Future Schmidt hasn't turned into a pile of mush with a drinking problem and an extreme fear of going outside.  Today's episode I'm focusing on where and what I'll be doing.  Odds are that, I’ll be craftier (and maybe you too!?!), I will have watched zero more Disney movies (seriously don't--everyone's parents are dead), and I’ll be a Star Wars expert. ...

Max Screen Schmidt

March 24, 2020 04:00 - 30 minutes - 21.1 MB

Today's episode is all about my screen time.  It's a scary world we're in and my screen time is up 40% since last week, and trust me, it's not going down for the foreseeable future #covid19problems. I talk about how apparently now I also video chat at work? Does that mean I can't look like I work from home anymore, even though I work from home?  I also discuss my new favorite reality show, Family Karma.  I love a semi-nonstaged family reality show because family can be really vicious to one ...

Quarantined Schmidt

March 17, 2020 04:00 - 31 minutes - 21.5 MB

We'll guys, get ready because I know Aunt Cin isn't.  I'm back in CT for the quarantine because California was pretty much the beginning of every dystopian novel I've ever read and I'll have PTSD for the rest of my life.  But listen, dark times aren't for this podcast.  Hopefully it's not the end of the world, so instead I'm going to focus on teaching you how to survive Work from Home (come on guys, you don't need colored charts, you just need to WORK), activities that will keep you busy dur...

Friend-Schmidt Goals

March 10, 2020 05:00 - 32 minutes - 22.3 MB

Okay guys, let’s ship this thing.  You’ve listened to 22 episodes or maybe two, okay maybe one.  WE'RE FRIENDS, OKAY?!? Today’s episode is all about making friends as adults which every gurl will tell you is freaking hard.  We all want to be friends, so why aren’t we friends?!?! Also, I talk hot Biden sons, because there is nothing else interesting about this primary.  Finally, I get real deep and tell you why you need a meat thermometer in your life, so you know when your chicken is hot eno...

Love this Schmidt

March 03, 2020 05:00 - 32 minutes - 22.4 MB

Today’s episode is all about Schmidt I Love, which this week means one HIGHLY under-rated and underappreciated thing and one thing that everyone freaking loves, but wants to pretend they won’t love because they are too classy for that shit, but once I convince them they love it and they can’t stop texting me because DUH I DON’T STEER PEOPLE WRONG.  So, I'll let you in on a secret and I talk all things medicine cabinets (I KNOW THIS SOUNDS BORING, but it's not, I swear) and Love is Blind fina...

Schmidt Takes LA...and Survives

February 25, 2020 05:00 - 39 minutes - 27.5 MB

I'm backkkkk! Guys,  I'm a survivor (damn, I missed a great opportunity to sing the Michelle Williams break down section)!  Today's episode is all about surviving my #firstworldproblem life, like moving cross country with my dog, four pieces of luggage, and without #auntcin.  I also discuss season freaking 40 of Survivor.  Survivor survived being cut by a network!  We’re still watching, or at least I am. And finally, I have a lot of downtime working east coast hours, so how do I entertain my...

Expert Schmidt

February 11, 2020 05:00 - 26 minutes - 18.6 MB

I'm an expert in leopard (DUH), knowing you're pregnant before you know, and apparently also the 2020 Oscars, even though I didn't technically watch them (oops). In Episode 19, I recap the very boring Oscars I didn't watch along with the Oscar movies I didn't see, because I am a freaking expert at all things, and plus, Google exists.  Then a public service announcement to all you pregnant mamas out there who haven't posted your Instagram announcement yet...we already know you're pregnant and...

Miss Americana Schmidt

February 04, 2020 05:00 - 46 minutes - 32.3 MB

Today’s episode I’m shooting the Schmidt. I talk how Taylor Swift is THE Schmidt. I watched her documentary, Miss Americana, so you don’t have to (but you should), and have a whole new appreciation for the lady.  Next, don’t make me hit pause.  I talk the worst kind of TV watchers aka the people that ask endless questions or don’t have the metal capability to follow a story line. Am I talking about you? Then maybe you shouldn’t watch TV anymore? K? K.  Finally, I don’t win Schmidt or maybe…I...

Schmidt Rants

January 28, 2020 05:00 - 31 minutes - 21.4 MB

Today's episode is all about Schmidt rants and hoping I don't ever get cancelled, but you know, I was always Corporate Schmidt, so I've been pretty locked down for years and not dumb, 15, and tweeting.  I dive into my old tweets to see if there is anything I should be worried about---we shall see.  Also, I've said it before and I will say it again, the only reason to have a baby is to have an Anne Geddes style photo shoot, so why aren't people doing this?!? I want to see your baby dressed up...

Real World Schmidt

January 21, 2020 05:00 - 50 minutes - 34.9 MB

Today’s episode is all about REAL Schmidt.  Sometimes I get really obsessed with things, and right now I'm all about the documentaries thanks to the Cheer train I got on with the rest of America.  I discuss how it all comes down to 2:15 on the mat, which Navarro cheerleader I am according to buzzfeed, and why Coach Monica is an angel sent from above.  Next I watch an avocado episode of Rotten on Netflix and it turns out I need to start purchasing conflict free avocados.  The golden globes tr...

I'm not crazy (says every crazy person)

January 14, 2020 05:00 - 51 minutes - 35.5 MB

It's episode 15 and she’s back! America’s favorite aunt, @officialauntcin, is here to talk everyone’s favorite TV show, or maybe the epitome of “what’s wrong with America,” the Season 8 premiere of Vanderpump Rules. I also read Demi Moore’s memoir Inside Out, so you don’t have to, and tell you all the best juice in 10 minutes or less instead of a 6 hour audible book – you’re welcome. Finally, I discuss last week’s sweaty Golden Globes and how if I were a celebrity I would rather be anywhere ...

What's your Netflix password?

January 07, 2020 05:00 - 37 minutes - 25.6 MB

Episode 14 will have you asking me "What’s your Netflix password?"  Do you have my Netflix password? Because I changed it today, I’ll probably hear from you by EOD for the new one. Then I talk Mandalorian.  Am I saying that right? Everyone says you must watch, so I watch and I tell you if it’s TOTAL Schmidt or THE Schmidt or maybe 50% Schmidt. Apparently, I need to know nothing about Star Wars to understand this show---we shall see.  Also, I talk how Instagram filters now offer life predicti...

Schmidt of a Decade

December 31, 2019 05:00 - 39 minutes - 27 MB

Today's episode is all about the most culturally important events of the last decade that shaped our lives, inspired us, and who am I kidding, this is a deep dive into the most scandalous, time wasting, and skeevy stuff of the decade.  On the last day of 2019 and the freaking DECADE -- I discuss my favorite headlines of each year and some of them weren't even that popular, but they changed my life OKAY? Okay, maybe they didn't change my life, but they kept me entertained, made me laugh, cry,...

Schmidt Saves Christmas

December 24, 2019 05:00 - 35 minutes - 24.1 MB

"Schmidt Saves Christmas" would be a better Hallmark Christmas movie than "Mistletoe and Menorahs" (a REAL holiday move and spoiler alert -- it was bad). In Episode 12, I talk how I am the ultimate gift giver of all time (and this is why I put so much pressure on others to get me good gifts) and can still save your Christmas, if you haven't finished shopping. Listen, it's hard to to get a gift they want, but didn't tell you about, but are still surprised by.  I also talk Schmidt I've been go...

Holiday Schmidt - Take 2

December 18, 2019 16:00 - 34 minutes - 23.6 MB

Today’s episode is all about the holiday season or as I like to call it “binge season” where everything is extra and there is no such thing as too much.  I talk about how I’ll be spending my “binge season” and all my favorite and least favorite Schmidt about the holidays.  Then I talk Krampus.  Do you have any idea what I’m talking about? Well, I’ll explain the best holiday mythological character of all time and how our parents got it wrong with only telling us about Santa, because we probab...

Conspiracy Schmidt

December 10, 2019 05:00 - 29 minutes - 20.6 MB

Episode 10 I discuss a lot of "Conspiracy Schmidt."  First up–it's a Starbucks Conspiracy– Listen, Starbucks doesn’t want you to order in-person anymore because everyone is an extroverted introvert, and we don’t want to talk to each other.  Plus they’re tired of asking you how to spell your name. Next up, we're getting really controversial up in here–Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself.  Okay, I don’t go that dark, but I review James Patterson's book “Filthy Rich: The Shocking True Story of ...

(You drive me) Crazy

December 03, 2019 05:00 - 30 minutes - 20.7 MB

On Episode 8 it's another Edition of Corporate Schmidt --Office Schmidt gets political-- Sometimes things get testy at work and you need to know how to navigate.  Per usual I have no tips, but hey, we can still complain about it. I also discuss how Black Friday is no longer the Schmidt--it's dead. Black Friday is kind of like Cyber Monday, except it's Friday, and also Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and even Tuesday and you don't have to leave your house. I also share a throw back Black Friday for...

Don't be a Quitter

November 26, 2019 05:00 - 30 minutes - 20.9 MB

On today's episode I talk a lot of REAL Schmidt.  Like, what the hell are you doing in the shower for so long?  Because I'm always one minute into my seven minute conditioning process and have nothing left to do.  Then I move on to SERIOUS Schmidt, and help you prepare to play games with my family during the holiday season.  I walk through our tried and true rules of being allowed to participate, the number 1 rule being, DON'T BE A QUITTER.  But seriously, I want you to have fun, so I'll wal...

Can't Stop, Won't Stop - Team Q-Tip...Duh.

November 19, 2019 05:00 - 33 minutes - 23.1 MB

Guys, how are we even surviving in 2019?  Have we become too soft?  Nah, I think we've finally understood our worth, at least that's what I think Brene Brown would tell me.  Today's episode is 99% full of Schmidt (but only the best kind).  I talk #firstworldproblems and what is really driving us all crazy--and it's mostly the slow internet--but it's also not being able to pay in one click or wondering where your EZ Pass bills are (or maybe that's just me?!?!). I also talk travelling solo and...

Straws are the Schmidt

November 12, 2019 05:00 - 31 minutes - 21.6 MB

Where did all the straws go?  How did they get taken from us so quickly? Who ran that campaign? Is the person/people who started it all now running political campaigns?  On today's episode, I'll talk "Conspiracy Schmidt" and deep dive into who we can blame for taking away all our straws and share my straw passion with the world.  We'll also discuss "Schmidt I Bought" that you don't need, and talk some "Emotional Schmidt" with a focus on crying in public. If I'm not crying on haunted hay ride...

Scared Schmidtless

November 05, 2019 05:00 - 32 minutes - 22.3 MB

Happy belated Halloween!  It took me 26 years to watch Hocus Pocus, so of course it took me almost a week to post a Halloween episode. On this episode I'll discuss my fear of all things scary and how I'm truly lucky I made it through high school with the amount of crying I did on haunted hay rides and trails.  I'll also lead a Halloween edition of "Judge's Table" where I judge my past Halloween costumes and list my favorite celebrity costumes this year (spoiler alert: no slutty costumes made...

Corporate Life Problemz

October 29, 2019 01:00 - 28 minutes - 19.5 MB

Ever go to work and feel over/underdressed and then stress about it for the whole day? Ever slam drawers of a printer or rip paper out of the drawer and then think...."hmm...I think this machine is expensive, but why isn't it working?!?"  Do you travel for work and have to pretend you're not a complainer to your colleagues or pass by your boss in first to take your spot in steerage?  Well, this podcast is for you!  I've saved up all my corporate rants and struggles for your enjoyment. Sit ba...

Watching YouTube and Drinking Cosmos

October 29, 2019 00:00 - 27 minutes - 18.7 MB

In today's episode I'm trying to understand YouTube and deep diving into my 15 year old spirit animal JoJo Siwa.  I get you girl--why wear black when you can wear sequins?!?! I'm also talking all things "As Seen on TV" and scaring you with the amount of money my family and I have spent on gadgets, truly giving you an idea of the monster they turned me into.  Finally, I'm laying out my #bringbackthecosmo 2020 campaign.  This will be the year of cosmo--we're bringing it back from the SATC grav...

America's Favorite Aunt - Official #AuntCin

October 29, 2019 00:00 - 39 minutes - 27.5 MB

Hey guys--in today's episode we talk to America's favorite Aunt -- Aunt Cin.  She's instagram famous (with 10 followers and no profile pic) and she's got a lot of dirt on me.  We talk her favorite things to do (hint: she really likes to nap), her latest obsession of watching dogs and kittens interact, and we detail how she is the original Marie Kondo. Finally, we recap our favorite show Unexpected on TLC and our obsession with these teen mom and dads. Thanks for listening!  Follow me at @s...

All about Schmidt

October 29, 2019 00:00 - 32 minutes - 22.1 MB

Hey guys, my name is Sarah and I talk a lot of Schmidt. Get it?!? Okay, you get it.  This episode is all about ME (hum Taylor Swift to yourself)!  You'll hear all about my phone addiction--how I'm desperately trying to overcome it (not working)--how I distract myself from productivity, and my biggest fears (serial killers hiding behind shower curtains is at the top of the list) and Schmidt I freaking HATE (the list is long...sometimes longer than the Schmidt I love). Follow me on Instagram ...
