The Lazy Teacher Episode Swap



E29 – We hang out with an awesome teacher, podcaster, and friend – Brian Pawlowski of The Lazy Teacher Podcast – in our first ever episode swap! No subjects are off limits as we talk about Weens’ dating life, music, parents vs teachers, school gardens, kids’ nutrition, and all sorts of goofy, giant topics. Enjoy this fun one and please be sure to follow The Lazy Teacher Podcast for Brian’s insight into education, parenting, passion, and life! He’s a good egg! thelazyteacherpodcast.com Song credit: “Giant Friends” by Weens.


Mole, Mule, Mole, Mule



E27 – Mouse explains her family’s Jewish side – the non bar mitzvah birthday campout and the non bris bris. Is 13 a man? Technology, coddling, and helicopter parenting might be to blame. Free range parenting is getting pushback in Mouse’s community probably because of the past small town murders. We talk crime and burglaries, and Weens tells her stolen bike story, ending with a flurry of 80s George confusion!  We remember a family camping trip and get into why men on our dad’s side are solitary – artsy Grizzly Adams or anxiety? Weens tells another hilarious work story, we do some car talk, and get into shame cleaning. Mouse knows new moms are notorious for this! Mouse is balancing her mini midlife crisis needing to go out and party, with working in the school garden, and we give props to all the teachers out there taking care of our kids. Please tell your friends about us. We would love some word of mouth support! www.MouseAndWeens.com

Sex Ed in Schools



E21 – Puberty, BO and penis, oh my. Mouse’s kids are going through sex ed in their health classes so we hear what they have to say. The twelve year old also talks about a transgender student and Mouse relates community concerns. We recall our own sex ed schooling and compare memories and PMS patterns. Join in to discuss parent porn fears and how you learned where babies come from.


Parenting Fears, Phone Sex, Car Accidents, and Wrap Parties



E11 – We discuss parenting fears with kids and sports, video games and the internet. Weens tells her babysitting, phone sex, and car accident stories. John Philip Sousa scoots by with his French horn on a skateboard. Why do girls need guys approval and the curse of being people pleasers. We segue into rollercoasters, pet guilt, hating crating, and animal rescue. Mouse got a kitten! Weens talks about the TV show wrap party, Vegas gambling, hitting the stage, and facing her fears! www.MouseAndWeens.com


Weens Goes a Courting



Ep9 – Enjoy the new intro. We talk attack swans, skaters, feminism, BMs, dogs, Chris Elliott, Fred Armisen, mom and dad bods, Gordon Jump and Dudley talk, and married sex. Weens has a new boy courting her and we read his texts to interpret mixed signals and emojis. She has to decide if she’s a cougar, how to shave, and she NEEDS ADVICE ABOUT WHAT HER NEXT MOVE WILL BE.
