Episode 69 - The Birthday Episode

December 14, 2022 22:45 - 47 minutes - 31.8 MB

Kelly has reached a milestone birthday, and we’re taking a few moments to reflect on the wisdom we’ve earned in almost two centuries of living. Among the four of us. We’re not saying Kelly is two hundred years old! In this episode, you’ll get tips about car tweezers, grocery cart strategy, youtube fitness videos, and above all, cooking turkeys in bags. Call us, Reynolds Corporation! And stick around to hear how we got our Cracker Barrel breakfast comped in a Downton Abbey re-enactment. Rec...

Episode 68 - The Garden of Effing Eden

July 04, 2022 19:31 - 39 minutes - 25.3 MB

Are you ready for rage? After the decision by the US Supreme Court to overturn Roe V Wade, we take some time for fury.  If you’re looking for actions and solutions, this episode is not for you as we’re honoring the grief process with a week for anger before we get back to the hard work of bandaiding American Democracy. If you want to hear from four fortysomething women who are just as angry as you, then we’ve got the profanity-laced incoherence you need for this moment.

Episode 67 - Mysteries, Histories, and Mascara

May 27, 2022 12:58 - 43 minutes - 28 MB

This week, we’re talking about what we’ve been reading, listening to, and watching. We’ve got movies to be watched on planes, twitter accounts about home repair from the star of Our Flag Means Death, and weighty tomes about history. But this episode quickly turns into an intervention for Kelly and Becca who may have gone a little too deep into true crime, The Staircase, and the story of Michael Peterson. We just want them to not scare themselves silly right before bedtime. Stay tuned after th...

Episode 66 - Beaver Research

May 06, 2022 00:57 - 46 minutes - 30.5 MB

And we’re back! Welcome to Season 3 of “That’s What We Said.” With some false stops and starts as we struggle once again with faulty internet and remembering our own names, we’re ready to catch up. A lot has happened during our hiatus, including the controversial opening of a mega gas station in our community. Some of us have begun traveling for work again, and we have some stories from airports. Boy, do we have stories. “That’s What We Said” is like spending Saturday evening on the porch wi...

Episode 65 - Yay for Mae!

October 26, 2021 23:02 - 37 minutes - 23.8 MB

It’s once again time for some Kentucky politics on the pod! This week, we’re excited to interview Mae Suramek, candidate for the 89th district Kentucky House seat. It’s just a few days until the election here in Madison County, and we’re talking to Mae about running for office, running a business, and starting a new podcast about the experience of Asian Americans in Kentucky. Mae talks to us about what it means to “do well by doing good.” We hope you’ll do good next week by voting in your lo...

Episode 64 - Let Your Light Shine - With Wine!

September 18, 2021 13:24 - 33 minutes - 22.3 MB

Have you ever felt like you REALLY WANT to do SOMETHING to help fix the the world, but can't find the time between working, helping with homework, shuttling kids to practices, grocery shopping, and #allthethings? Joining us this week is Beverly Battle, an organizer & activist with Kentucky roots, who talks about her organization "Red, Wine and Blue" (check out their podcast!) that creates progressive political momentum by supporting women & helping us all learn how small actions can lead t...

Episode 63 - Pulling Back the Curtain

September 06, 2021 17:28 - 32 minutes - 20.9 MB

We’ve recently learned that we’re the eighth most popular comedy podcast in Oman, so we’re dreaming about the future of the pod in this week’s episode. Coming up are episodes on Kentucky politics and Kentucky bourbon, although not necessarily in the same episode. We also want to know what our listeners want to hear. More tales of Katie Marie Kondo-ing her drawers? More library adventures from Kelly? More murder books from Jenny? Whatever our listeners want, we’re prepared to bring it. PS. ...

Episode 62 - Bow & Arrowing

August 23, 2021 22:58 - 36 minutes - 23.6 MB

There’s Covid everywhere & we can’t keep safe Covid measures in place because of the dumb KY legislature & stubborn people who won’t listen to science so we're feeling a bit down. To distract ourselves, we decide to reflect on the Olympics - from the incredible US Women's Gymnastic Team to knitting divers to necklace wearing soccer/football players to dancing horses. We learn that Becca was a gymnast! And Jenny & her mom dabbled in synchronized swimming! After a month-long hiatus we’re back!...

Episode 61 - Otherwise Occupied

July 12, 2021 23:05 - 37 minutes - 26.2 MB

It’s time for a media roundup. After Jenny and Katie’s conflict over Cards Against Humanity in the last episode, they make up over their shared affection for TikToker Kevin James Thornton. Shoutout to Katie for always sharing Hoosier-adjacent TikToks with Jenny. Becca raises the tone with some excellent nonfiction about podcast hero — and everyone’s hero!— Eleanor Roosevelt.  Finally, not even a binge watch of Kim’s Convenience can distract Kelly from a week of epic car trouble. Recorded i...

Episode 60 - Dancing with Wildlife

June 21, 2021 17:35 - 37 minutes - 26.9 MB

What do a hoedown, a drowned mouse, a cutthroat game of Cards Against Humanity, hours spent on learning a TikToc dance, 45 bags of Cheetos, and a bottle of Snoop Dog wine have in common? Listen to it ALL go down in “Dancing with Wildlife,” (AKA “Notes from the Cabin” AKA “Kaftan Magic” AKA “Undisclosed Location”) a special That’s What We Said episode recorded during our epic post-Pandemic pod sisters weekend get-away. Recorded in Slade, KY | Edited by Kelly Smith | Music composed and perfo...

Episode 59 - The Freeman Show

June 01, 2021 15:19 - 42 minutes - 30.6 MB

In this week’s episode, we reflect on the “new normal” as things start to open up and we adjust to maskless shopping and hard pants. This is our first time recording together since the beginning of the quarantimes, and we get to use our fancy new mic. We’re still figuring out our microphone, and we may sound more like we were recording from a busy roadside than we did when we were on zoom. But we think our laughter sounds better than ever, and we promise to figure the noise out. Becca’s dog ...

Episode 58 - Business Acumen, TWWS-Style

May 09, 2021 14:23 - 53 minutes - 35.2 MB

Now that we’ve conquered the podcasting world, we thought it was time to share our mega-million dollar business ideas. Maybe it’s not the best idea to broadcast our business acumen before copyrighting our brainstorms. Trademarking? Patenting? We don’t know, so maybe we should just put all this genius out into the public domain. MRS! Sips and Soccer! Super Distractors! Hawt Mayor Calendars! Interested? You can reach us at our cafe bookstore in Canada...in our dreams. Recorded via Zoom in Be...

Episode 57 Bonus - Behind the Scenes of the Most Professional Podcast Ever

April 22, 2021 20:00 - 2 minutes - 1.78 MB

It's the outtake footage you've been waiting for, where we discuss whether to purchase a microphone for in-person recording. Sound dull? Our "under the hood" conversations are rarely dull...  Rated "explicit" for innuendo Recorded via Zoom in Berea, KY | Edited by Kelly Smith | Music composed and performed by Elly Green | Artwork by Jessica Holly

Episode 57 - Our Dapper Friends

April 19, 2021 20:00 - 44 minutes - 29.5 MB

Between soccer, Easter, & a lot of mom type commitments, we’ve been off the air for a couple of weeks. We are back with our media recommendations for April. This month, dive into Jenny & Becca’s serious picks about WWII. Or how about some 80s Cold War intrigue with “The Americans?” But why would you do that when there’s Pig Royalty? Finally, we don't quite relish the murder bird who’s taken up residence on Katie’s roof, but we’d like to parlay her misfortune into some paid advertising from B...

Episode 56 - Don't Wash Your Meat!

March 28, 2021 19:04 - 37 minutes - 24.6 MB

March is almost over, and we’re wrapping up our month of interviews with kickass Kentucky women. Although we’re sad to see the month go, we can’t think of a better guest than epidemiologist and soccer mom Nikita Vundi.  Nikita joins Katie and Jenny to talk about vaccines and public health. We ponder what changes from 2020 will last past the immediate danger of COVID-19, we bond over the necessity of not washing poultry, and we celebrate the glory of Girl Scout cookies. Recorded via Zoom in...

Episode 55 - Celebrating the Life of Michelle Tooley

March 21, 2021 20:27 - 38 minutes - 23.7 MB

Continuing our series of interviews with Kentucky women, we welcome our amazing friends Grace McKenzie and Heather Dent to share their upcoming children’s book about one of our Kentucky heroes, Michelle Tooley. Michelle was a peace and social justice activist and professor here in Berea. Grace and Heather talk us through the process of bringing the book from a short presentation at a local summer camp to a hardbound story to be shared with children and adults in our community and beyond. On ...

Episode 54 - It's Called Pooberty!

March 15, 2021 20:30 - 53 minutes - 34.2 MB

During our month of conversations with Kickass Kentucky Women, we’re thrilled to welcome Shannon Phelps to help us navigate the waters of sexuality education. This episode comes with a content warning that it’s not for children. Shannon is here to help parents as we figure out how to talk with children about everything from  body changes to nocturnal emissions to sexual consent to porn literacy. The takeaway: “communication fosters connection!” As awkward as parents and children feel when we...

Episode 53 - Everybody in Their 40s is Dumb

March 08, 2021 01:46 - 45 minutes - 27.1 MB

This week, Cara Stewart -- long time champion of healthcare and justice in Kentucky -- joins us for our month of talking to Badass Kentucky Women. We talk about her career as an attorney, including the successful fight against then Governor Bevin’s Medicaid waiver, which would have removed large numbers of folks from the rolls. We take a semi-deep dive into the Kentucky legislature, exploring the history of bills that are introduced by women legislators and eventually taken up in watered dow...

Episode 52 - Mum's the Word

February 28, 2021 21:35 - 42 minutes - 28.1 MB

Three of us are celebrating our 30th year reunion this year -- or at least remembering our 30th year of escape from high school. Join us on a little mental time travel this week as we reflect on our high school experiences in four different states in the 1980s and 90s - from giant mum corsages to coded flower deliveries to surprising mascots. Sadly, every single time Katie tries to talk about her beloved mascot, her zoom connection falters. We find out that Becca lived a Veronica Mars lifest...

Episode 51 - Courtly Love or Courtney Love?

February 22, 2021 21:30 - 49 minutes - 31.8 MB

This week, we welcome guest Nick Koenig. He’s an EKU botany student, activist, and campus leader. He’s here to give us hope for the future and bring us some Gen Z reality. We talk with Nick about environmental racism and segregation in Louisville and about replanting schemes on former mountaintop removal sites.  But since we can never be 100 percent serious, we inadvertently test his knowledge about 90s grunge. Result: we feel old. We also find out about Katie’s catalog full of fancy pastor ...

Episode 50 - Embrace the Awkward

February 14, 2021 03:11 - 43 minutes - 28.4 MB

It’s hard to believe (or maybe it isn’t!), but it has now been a full year since Covid-19 made its way to the U.S. This week we talk about how the last year has affected our kids and families, and we speculate on what “normal” will look like after the Covid-Times (verdict: we will be as awkward as ever when we see our friends and co-workers again). Katie and Kelly give an important update on their Bridgerton bet and Jenny contributes an extremely important road report and call to action from...

Episode 49 - It's Bridgerton Time

February 06, 2021 10:00 - 22 minutes - 14.5 MB

It feels like a long time since our last media roundup, and maybe that’s because we took the last two weeks off to celebrate the New Year, AKA the Inauguration of President Joe Biden and Veep Kamala Harris. Does the world seem brighter now? We don’t know, but we’ve got a romantic set of tv shows and books to recommend this month.  Everyone but Katie has watched -- and has thoughts about --- Bridgerton. We wheel and deal and the rest of the pod agrees to read Katie’s pick Red, White, and Roya...

Episode 48 - Democracy and New Printers

January 18, 2021 09:00 - 49 minutes - 31.7 MB

Join us this week as we process the events that occurred over the past couple of weeks, from the high of the Georgia Senate runoffs, to the low of the violent insurrection attempt at the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021. We grapple with putting these events in context, from the destruction of political and social norms over the past 5 years, to the anti-government rhetoric of the past 5 decades, to the militarism, materialism, and racism that have defined our country for the past 5 c...

Episode 47 - Year 1: What Did We Say?

January 10, 2021 22:47 - 38 minutes - 24.9 MB

Welcome to 2021 with That’s What We Said! This episode, recorded before the New Year, and before we had any inkling of what would happen on January 6, celebrates our first year of podcasting. We reflect on the adventure of the past year. We remember memorable guests such as State Representative Attica Scott the KY Secretary of State (amazed that he didn’t walk out on our liberal selves). Finally, we ponder what it means to have created a record of our lives in a time of plague and we look fo...

Episode 46 - 2020: From Bunker Strawberries to Hot Springs Hot Dogs

December 31, 2020 11:00 - 40 minutes - 26.1 MB

Join us this week as we talk about all the news that wasn’t in 2020. Yes, we’re talking about the stories that the coronavirus and the election may have driven from our minds - from the bizarre mansion listings and child naming practices of the crazy rich to the emancipation of Harry and Meghan. On more serious notes, we celebrate the service of a local city council member who ended her term this year, and we recommit to making sure that Kentucky movements for racial justice don’t slip below...

Episode 45 - The Rule of the Cup

December 19, 2020 04:43 - 36 minutes - 23.3 MB

Guess what it’s time for? You guessed it - another media roundup. Jenny can’t get enough of Supermarket Sweep and Kelly gets confused about what Leslie Jones’ Twitter account has to do with that. From Chess in Lexington, KY, to football in London, England, to small town Ontario, Canada, explore the wide world of the TWWS Pod Sisters’ media consumption heading into the holidays. Speaking of the holidays, we have all been partaking of such high brow classics as Christmas Vacation and Home Alon...

Episode 44 - Yuletide Rage

December 12, 2020 10:00 - 45 minutes - 30.1 MB

This week, while Kelly’s off doing important work for the commonwealth, the rest of the pod sisters are beginning to get ready for Christmas. We’re talking candy! Cookies! Decorations! Songs! We spend an unreasonably long time talking about wrapping paper, from Katie’s touching story about her grandmother’s gift wrap to Jenny’s newly discovered perimenopausal rage about cheap paper. And we learn something too, too shocking about how Santa wraps presents at Becca’s house. You’ll want to liste...

Episode 43 - It Has Pockets!

November 26, 2020 14:29 - 35 minutes - 22 MB

We’re excited to welcome author Alix E. Harrow for a chat about her new book The Once and Future Witches. The discussion ranges from pockets in dresses -- central to the plot of the book and to our own lives -- to the research required to build a believable, exciting story that marries the history of suffrage and witchcraft. We talk about what it’s like to bring out a book during a pandemic, and Alix promises to come back on the pod as a book concierge for us.  This holiday season, we recomm...

Episode 42 - Estill Street is Going to Be Lit

November 14, 2020 05:00 - 58 minutes - 37.9 MB

We recorded this episode on Saturday, November 7th, while we -- and the world -- were waiting for the Presidential election to be called. While we wait, we talk about election results in Kentucky, particularly the dispiriting news that a state representative currently indicted for assault on his wife has been easily reelected. We ponder Red and Blue America and how that false dualism makes it harder for rural organizers to make headway in our areas. But if that sounds deep, we also take a mo...

Episode 41 - The Algorithm Betrays You

November 02, 2020 20:29 - 33 minutes - 21.5 MB

“The only security of all is in a free press.” ― Thomas Jefferson In today’s political climate it is hard not to have strong feelings about “The Media.” It touches almost every aspect of our lives, and can influence what we believe, what we watch, and who we vote for. Whether it is “mainstream,” “social,” “right-wing,” or “left-wing,” the media is something that is on all of our minds, almost all the time. This week, during a special Election Day episode, Kelly and Becca have a conversat...

Episode 40 - Everything is Bleepy

October 31, 2020 09:00 - 42 minutes - 27.8 MB

After seven months in our own homes -- is it really seven months? Less? More? Who knows? -- we’re ready to peel off the plastered smiles on our faces and get real about how it’s going. With just a few days left before the 2020 election, it seems like all of the chickens of our entire lives are coming home to roost. Chickens may be the wrong animal metaphor, because first we’ve got to talk about cats. Jenny’s been attempting to do a little self-care through indoor gardening, and her cats have...

Episode 39 Bonus - Pandemic Puppies

October 28, 2020 20:45 - 10 minutes - 7.07 MB

Episode 39 - Little Debbie is Stable

October 24, 2020 10:00 - 43 minutes - 28.1 MB

This week, we’re delighted to welcome Pittsburgh teacher Adam Bailey to talk about his pandemic life. We learn what it was like for Adam to teach 13 year olds via zoom for weeks and then to welcome them into the school building and discover that he knew their voices better than their faces. Also, we are surprised to learn that Adam is an expert in the epitome of coronavirus comfort foods... Not sourdough... Not produce from the Victory Garden... We’re talking about oatmeal pies and zebra cak...

Episode 38 - Young and Agile

October 17, 2020 09:00 - 41 minutes - 26.4 MB

Thanks to official daughter of the pod, Elly Green, for joining us via zoom to tell us all about college life during a pandemic. As we reminisce about college in the 90s, we wonder how the kids these days are making friends and eating pizza when everyone’s wearing a mask and standing 6 feet apart. Elly is happy to give us all the details while updating us on how communication has changed in the last 30 years. Hint: no landlines or whiteboards on your dorm door. Meanwhile, it’s time for Kelly...

Episode 37 - I'm Glad Ankles Aren't a Thing

October 03, 2020 12:47 - 33 minutes - 21.7 MB

It’s time for our media roundup, and we’re surprised to discover that 6 months into being home, there are still shows we haven’t watched and books we haven’t read. This month, we do dive into the past, specifically the movies of our youths. Our sons have thoughts on Being John Malkovich and the original Bill and Ted as we show them the movies of the 80s and 90s. And for those keeping tally at home, Becca is on her third rewatch of Golden Girls during the corona times. Recorded via Zoom in ...

Episode 35 - The Swiss Army Knife of Elections

September 19, 2020 09:00 - 28 minutes - 18 MB

Voting. During the craziness of this pandemic, we’ve all been trying to figure out how we do the things that have to get done. Many of us are working and schooling from home, ordering our groceries online, and wearing masks for those “have to” errands. But, with one of the most important elections of our generation looming, how in the world are we going to make sure we safely vote? This week, That’s What We Said welcomes Kentucky’s Secretary of State Michael Adams, who shares THE PLANS (and ...

Episode 34 - Horses on a Plane

September 12, 2020 08:00 - 43 minutes - 28 MB

This week, we’re remembering that time in history when we used to leave our homes and go places AKA travel. Jenny’s joy at packing a suitcase to move her daughter to college sparked nostalgia in all of us for hitting the road. So we’re taking a week to talk about travel mishaps, whether it’s long delays on the tarmac, meeting famous jockey at the baggage claim, or being bitten by a thousand mosquitos in foreign locales, we miss a world outside the four walls of our homes. Come for the turbul...

Most of the time, we want to lighten your load by bringing you our daily mishaps, funny memories, and guests who lift us up and teach us. This week, we’re checking in with each other after five months of life during the coronavirus pandemic. Where are we? Well, mainly at home and tired of it. We’re worried about our children as they go back to school. We’re fretting about the ways 2020 has changed us: from people who could blithely let our household run out of toilet paper to people who wond...

Episode 31 - Battle of the Salads

August 15, 2020 09:00 - 42 minutes - 26.5 MB

This week, it’s time to reveal the Real Housewives drama behind the podcast. You’ve heard the laughter, seen the camaraderie, shared the #relish. But now it’s time to peek behind the curtain to see the controversy that divides our friends. It’s time to get real about food. It’s time to bicker about salads that are not salads. Katie and Jenny are on Team Jello Salad while Becca and Kelly are champions of Team Egg Salad. It’s time to throw down. Will Katie’s grandma’s special jello mold win th...

Episode 29 - Margarita Sippy Cup

August 01, 2020 09:30 - 37 minutes - 23.7 MB

We’re sure we’re not alone in reaching a new level of pandemic distress this week. It’s a rough time as we try to cope with surging cases and deaths in the US and here at home in Kentucky. So we thought we’d take a week to talk about new pandemic experiences that AREN’T making us weep. For exercise, Katie’s been paddle boarding at our local reservoir. Her sunburn may have made her cry, but time out on the water with her friends has given her joy. Now that she’s invested in new swim pants, th...

Episode 28 - Thumbs Up for Grilled Cheese

July 25, 2020 10:00 - 45 minutes - 27.8 MB

It’s time for a monthly roundup of what we’ve been watching, reading, and listening to during this month of staying at home. As we get deeper into the pandemic, we find that we’re doing one of two things: seeking out books and movies that teach us something and seeking out the familiar to soothe us during uncertain times. Katie alerts us to an article about why people return to favorite shows when the world is a scary place, which definitely made us all feel better about our return to the wo...

Episode 27 - Small Wonders

July 18, 2020 10:42 - 22 minutes - 13.6 MB

Building on last week’s discussion about toys of our childhood, we talk about the 70s and 80s TV landscape that allowed for a show like “Small Wonder,” the tale of a robot girl and her life in a suburban family. We contrast wholesome family fare like Family Ties and The Cosby Show (!) with Three’s Company, where a man and two women, none of whom were married to each other, lived together in the same home! Some of our parents did not approve. If you find yourself chuckling at any of these mem...

Episode 26 - What Was Your Barbie Doing, Becca?

July 11, 2020 10:00 - 24 minutes - 15 MB

This week we take a break from life during a pandemic to remember the toys of our childhoods. There’s nothing like a good trip down memory lane to take your mind off presidential tweets and fights over masks, especially when memory leads you to the very weird time in pop culture that was the 1970s and 80s. We discuss the frailties of Barbie hair when exposed to swimming pools, hair dryers, and ineptly wielded safety scissors. We compare our Donnie & Marie toys. And we recollect various Chris...

Episode 25 - Bonus - Port 'O Potties 'R Us

July 10, 2020 21:57 - 9 minutes - 5.87 MB

We expand on our Episode 25 discussion about port ‘o potties.
