April 22, 2024 00:17 - 1 hour - 77 MBBobby, Ann, Meredith and Hillary push the Toyota Sienna to the limit (or at least the limits of these United States) as the TSHE Cinema Roadtrip Spectacular comes to a triumphant and long-overdue finale in Alaska and Hawaii!

What more could you ask f...
#233: Mailed It! (Please Don’t Sue Us)
March 18, 2024 02:35 - 1 hour - 60.6 MBHere at TSHE we are nothing if not supportive of US Governmental services, so for this show Bobby, Meredith, and Ann are talking about the US Postal Service (as well as other ancillary delivery services). Along the way we cover pen pals, mail hacks, delivery gripes, a show stamp conflict, and our official Top Five letter carriers list. Plus, the liminal space of Olive Garden, ill-gotten toffee, thrift store arbitrage, our individual pedantic pet peeves, and Bobby’s search for a gian...

March 11, 2024 03:16 - 1 hour - 56.8 MBShots! Shot! Shots! This week, the TSHE crew looks back on the spring breaks of our youth. Fun in the sun and nights in the club? More like work, grandparents and a Cheeseburger in Paradise. And be careful with those wet T-shirts in these wind chills. Plus: Movie talk, a traffic rant, and a far-too-thoughtful-for-this-episode remembrance of a friend. There’s light speed, there’s warp speed, and there’s Polly speed. TSHE Recommends This Double Feature of Womanhood Somebody Feed ...

February 26, 2024 02:14 - 1 hour - 74 MBOpen wide and say ahh because it’s Episode Toof-Hurty, and your TSHE hosts are going deep on oral health. From cavities to root canals implants and, well, failed root canals, we’ve seen and felt it all. Plus: Bobby went to Aruba and the Pizza Hut pizza was bad. Hillary went to Nashville and missed the Nazi parade. Ann went to Switzerland (a long time ago) and has a fluoride-free theory about it. And Meredith went the first 18 years of her life without a cavity, only to have her mout...
#229: TSHE Classic – I Find You Succulent
February 19, 2024 04:04 - 1 hour - 70.8 MBThe gang is (mostly) otherwise occupied this week, so please enjoy this TSHE Classic from the last Valentine’s Day of our pre-pandemic innocence. We’ll see you next week! Original Show Notes: It’s almost Valentine’s Day, so Ann, Christy, Meredith, and Mike are honoring romance with asbestos-filled teddy bears, overpriced dinners, low-quality jewelry, and a mylar heart on a stick. We wonder, what’s the point of having a day to affirm and celebrate your relationship if nobody can qui...
#228: Unrealistic Beauty Standards for Snakes
February 12, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour - 54.7 MBAnn, Hillary, and Meredith are here for a TSHE After Hours where we discuss a panoply of topics. Subjects include Indiana Jones rankings, couches, accents, safari suppers (??), protein, and, weirdly, the cuteness of snakes. It’s a hotpot episode if you will! We also have an edition of Hillary’s Horny Corner featuring Ann! In a surprising turn of events, we talk about a very sexy vampire novel that’s definitely not Twilight! Hillary is intrigued and will give her official review so...

February 05, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour - 43.2 MBCan magic remove pants and shirts? Yes! Do we all need familiars who neg us? Yes! Is Small Town, Big Magic basically a witchy version of Gilmore Girls? We’ll discuss! That’s because it’s the return of the TSHE Book Club! We’re discussing Small Town, Big Magic by Hazel Beck aka “A More Pleasant Hellmouth”. And as you can tell, we have a lot of follow-up questions! In small talk, Hillary describes an extremely awkward (yet highly entertaining) memorial. Also, Meredith gives us the la...
#226: “It’s not too bad, it’s Brovaltine”
January 29, 2024 03:59 - 1 hour - 64.5 MBWe’ve spent a lot of energy talking about silver linings on this show (the pandemic, anyone?), but now it’s time to flip the script and discuss what we’re calling the lead linings – those small drawbacks to things that are otherwise positives in our lives. From choosing the burn (muscles) to choosing the burn (taste buds), being resigned to bad hair days and rashy skin, and the drawbacks of being (gulp) responsible adults, we’re embracing the downsides. Plus, Hillary’s Hitchcock rev...
#225: WALL-E is a Daydream
January 22, 2024 03:14 - 1 hour - 52.6 MBBobby, Meredith and Hillary are ready to get away, even if its not far from home.

TSHE Recommends Fellow Travelers (follow-up: Maybe not with kids around) Is it Cake, Too? (Probably OK for kids unless they hate cakes or bad television) Con...
#224: I Need to Be in the Cultural Zeitgeist!
January 15, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour - 65.8 MB(Editor’s note - there are spoilers for several movies in this episode.) It’s cold. It’s rainy. It's gray. It's windy. But you know what?

#222: Tell Her Thank You for the Hot Dogs
January 01, 2024 04:00 - 1 hour - 57.3 MBIt’s that week of the year where you don’t really know what day it is. You’re eating cookies for breakfast and maybe having a shower beer! What better time to snuggle up with your TSHE crew and do a little watch along. We missed Christmas, but there have to be some New Year’s Holiday movies right? And not just by Garry Marshall! It’s a Royal New Year’s Eve! Join us as we *try* to decipher this simultaneously simple and overly complex plot. Are appliques fancy enough to name a magaz...

December 25, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour - 68.4 MBOn this very special Christmas Day edition of the show, Bobby, Meredith and Ann talk through ideal Advent calendar fodder, and get a big life update from the Moneypit Studios that despite what some other podcasters might think is definitely not a HIPAA violation.

This is your show, too...
#220: Normalize the P3N1$
December 18, 2023 04:34 - 1 hour - 65.1 MBThe TSHE Galaxy of Stars ™ is down to two this week, so Ann and Hillary decide to do a slightly abbreviated (hahahahaha) Small Talk Spectacular and chat about the things that have been occupying their lives. Ann got back into the competitive trivia circuit and revived the Ho Ho Holiday movie review. DJ HBomb made an appearance at the company holiday party and then got hoisted on her own birthday petard. Additional topics include office kitchen shuttle runs, whether ingesting soapy w...

December 04, 2023 02:40 - 1 hour - 67.4 MBTSHE takes on office lunch etiquette as Bobby, Ann and Hillary tackle shared refrigerators, microwaves and more.

Some of us made delicious pies, some of us had kidney stones, and some of us made poor choices and went to the mall on Black Friday. Plus, we discuss kid basement culture. Giant TVs, a sectional couch with cup holders, and a tiny fridge with snacks and sodas? Yes, please! Also, we’re reading Small Town, ...
#216: (Don’t) Talk to Me About Scottsdale
November 20, 2023 03:21 - 1 hour - 68.6 MBThis week, we’re talking commercials; specifically, the earworm-y jingles that live in the far recesses of our brains, (like those fish that are so deep in the ocean that they’re bioluminescent freaky things). Everybody’s picking their most indelible jingles, and if you don’t know all of these (hyper-local ads excluded), where have you been for the last 40 years? Plus, we ponder a few of life’s essential questions. Namely, are classifieds still a thing? Did all 80’s media end with a...
#215: Pizza Perfectation
November 13, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour - 57.8 MBWhether it’s delivery, DiGiorno, or depressingly eaten in the parking lot of a Target, TSHE loves pizza. And who doesn’t?

The TSHE menagerie are the stars of this show so tune in for some tears and, obviously, fish tank science! In small talk, Bridget discovers early male disappointment. Meredith is in a terrible crash (sho...

Today, in the spirit of the spooky/birthday month, we’re talking about those non-existential dreads we had as kids. We interrogate why we felt this way, and if we’re possibly still triggered by those fears. Witches, masks, toilets, oh my! In small talk, Meredith details her journey to yet another Grand Rapids. She’s also become a sidecar chick! The ladies then take some detours to discuss proper fast food eating and World War II fasc...

#208: Baby Got a Lotta Nostalgia
September 25, 2023 02:55 - 1 hour - 64.3 MBThe music we listen to in our youth stamps an imprint on our souls, whether we want it to or not. So, Hillary, Meredith, and Ann are heading back to the 90s to revisit some of the (mostly) one-hit wonders that still live in the recesses of our brains. Mediocre musicianship, uninspired composition, and narrow vocal range aside, these tunes are catchy, y’all. Which song (surprisingly) passes the Bechdel test? Whose parents schlepped her to two mediocre concerts in two days? Which Audr...
#207: The Mosquitos Want This Fat A**!
September 18, 2023 03:00 - 1 hour - 53.5 MBBeing young is wonderful, right?. Dewy skin (for some of us), lots of energy, not a care in the world! Then why not work a job for free (or minor ducats)?! This week your TSHE hosts are talking about a right of passage for some - The Internship! Don’t worry, we won’t discuss the 2013 film starring Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson (or will we?). In small talk, Bobby’s got some BIG (and small) news, Hillary’s trying to live through chaos (mostly unsuccessfully), and it’s Ann’s getting ba...
#206: Assessing our algorithms
September 11, 2023 02:37 - 1 hour - 68.9 MBThis week, we let Jesus take the wheel. And by Jesus, we mean the almighty power that controls our YouTube algorithms. What’s the supercomputer serving us? Where do we overlap, and where are we off on our own internet islands? Plus: Ann doesn’t know much about lofi beats—but she has strong words for Jamiroquai. Hillary is excited for her new bathroom—but not the process. Bobby freed a mouse—or served up an easy meal to a neighborhood predator. Meredith once made a mousetrap with a...
#205: Big Altima Energy
September 04, 2023 03:08 - 1 hour - 57.1 MBWe were too tired to think of a show topic, so it’s time for another TSHE Small Talk Spectacular™! Some of the topics on the docket: the successes and failures of Meredith’s trip to the Twin Cities, how Bobby’s cats are (finally) attempting to be useful members of the family, Ann’s lack of knowledge re: where the boys are, and the concept of Bossy Bingo (thanks for that, listener Bet). Plus, appliance repair, Labor Day plans, the importance of a padfolio for job interviews, and a su...

#202: Do It for the Cookies
August 14, 2023 01:58 - 1 hour - 72.7 MBThe bin of show topics has gotten full, so we’re taking the time to blitz through a few ideas we had that didn’t pan out into full episodes. Included in the discussion: restaurant trauma bonding, Hanks Ranks, thoughts on soup, hygiene habits, and an inexplicable conversation about people named Dirk. Plus, trying not to be a flaky husk, wide feet, and strategies for coping with flying anxiety. It’s just a bunch of friends sitting around and talking about snail Mueslix, like you do. ...

August 07, 2023 03:00 - 2 hours - 69.5 MBThe obstacles are out of our way and your TSHE hosts are back to their scheduled programming! This week we discuss those sliding doors moments in our lives. What decision or happenstance changed the our trajectory? Big or small, we have some inflection points we’d like to ponder. Rewatch of the 1998 classic, Sliding Doors, not required (though it is on an alarming number of streaming services). In small talk, Hillary talks all things Seattle/Taylor and the aftermath, Bobby details ...
#200: TSHE Classic - What we want(ed) to be when we grow up
July 31, 2023 03:00 - 1 hour - 66.2 MB*Your wonderful hosts were pitched some curveballs this week! We'll be back at you with many new stories to tell next episode. In the meantime, enjoy some laughs as you hear our childhood dreams die.* This week: Our childhood hopes and dreams—at least for our professional lives. Also: Wonky the future Cat-Hulk, a Rise of Gru review, Bobby’s 15 minutes of local news fame, and a voicemail that absolutely positively isn’t about lube. This description would have been longer, but we’re...
#199: Nostalgia in Cascadia (in a Sienna)
July 24, 2023 02:50 - 1 hour - 99.5 MBThe THSE Cinema Roadtrip Spectacular™ makes its penultimate stop in the Pacific Northwest and, as usual, most of our movies are either memories of our youth—or rooted in a desire to be young again. Plus: Hillary is mom of the year, Meredith is a rough-housing aunt, Christy is a bead entrepreneur, Bobby is willing to drive 90 minutes to meet a friend at a Buffalo Wild Wings, Ann is still firmly anti-monkey, and Larry Miller is a champion. Say hi to your mother for us! TSHE Recomme...

#197: Celebrating the Willennium
July 10, 2023 03:54 - 1 hour - 77 MBWe’ve all got stories about the strangers we’ve lived by, and Ann, Meredith, and Hillary are no exception. In that spirit, we’re recounting tales about neighbors, good and bad (but let’s be real, they’re mostly bad). We discuss unexpected political friction, neighborhood creeps, the importance of locking your doors, neighborly situations we wish we’d handled differently, and some friendly arson. Plus, it turns out that Hillary is a road trip dad, while Meredith continues to discover...
196: Clams is Clams!
July 03, 2023 03:00 - 1 hour - 46.4 MBSurprise! It’s an unplanned Small Talk Spectacular. The Coven had too many topics to discuss that could never fit any traditional Medium Talk format. These ladies can’t be contained! Star Wars burlesque, dude on Wookie action, Final Fantasy symphonies, parasailing, Ninja Turtle litmus tests, canned fish, America’s failing transportation system, fear of fireworks, and that doesn't come close to covering it! Grab your beverage and snack of choice and eavesdrop on the gals as they gab ...
#195: See? It’s Burning!
June 26, 2023 03:36 - 1 hour - 72.9 MBWhether it’s a class presentation, a musical performance, or a speech of some kind, we’ve all experienced the sweaty-palm, butterfly-stomach, heart-racing anxiety of performing in public. The TSHE crew is no exception, so we’re dredging up some of our most memorable successes and failures when it comes to public expression. Concert solo flops? Misinterpretations of class assignments? Demonstrations of professional competency? Extracurricular triumphs? Check, check, check, and check....

#193: I, for One, Welcome Our Robot Overlords
June 12, 2023 03:15 - 1 hour - 71 MBTechnology is changing with head-spinning speed these days; it’s inevitable that Skynet will eventually take over society, so we’d better be ready when it happens. Accordingly, Christy, Hillary, and Ann, along with guest host and AI-realist Jeremy, are talking about the things we’d love to offload onto not-quite sentient beings when we get the chance. Some of our choices are expected (various chores), some less so (medical stand-ins), but we’re determined to make the robot revolutio...
192: TSHEan Grape Scare of 2023
June 05, 2023 03:00 - 1 hour - 43.6 MBWe love our medium talk, but sometimes we just want to discuss the small (and sometimes very small in Bobby's case) stuff in our lives. That’s right, it’s an Oops, All Small Talk/Small Talk Spectacular Edition of the show! Our topics and tangents include: meatballs, grape prices, produce stability, Hayden Christensen’s career trajectory, British genetics, kidney stones, Cleveland!, rose bushes, hand pies, legitimacy of 5th grade graduations, and (unsurprisingly) so so much more. ...

Hillary’s dealing with a case of turgid ankles. And Ann’s saving the world so Hillary doesn’t have to. Smuckers, do better! TSHE Recommends Nev...
#190: Happiness Comes in Small Doses, Folks
May 22, 2023 03:33 - 1 hour - 66.4 MBListen, life can be long, and happiness isn’t a constant state of being, so you’ve gotta do what you can to spark joy. In that spirit, we’re talking about the little things that we relish on a day-to-day basis. Whether it’s using water to “blast away the depression,” indulging in perhaps slightly obsessive kitchen organization, “Go Bills”-ing our way around the world, or savoring the 8:05, we’ve all got those small pleasures that remind us why we get out of bed in the morning (also ...
#189: TSHE Classic – Moms on the Pod!
