This Show Has Everything

TSHE takes on office lunch etiquette as Bobby, Ann and Hillary tackle shared refrigerators, microwaves and more. It’s an episode you’ll love unless you leave your oatmeal dish soaking in the break room sink all day. Plus, the Branson of Bargain Hunting™ digs one heck of a rabbit hole, as proven by not one but two of our listeners. It’s a Quonset hut! Connect with the show! This is your show, too....

The gravy was stirred. The pies were eaten. The turkey carcass was dropped off at Michael Dukakasis’ house. Your TSHE crew is here to just catch up on our Thanksgiving goings-ons! 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, a...

This 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 es...

Whether it’s delivery, DiGiorno, or depressingly eaten in the parking lot of a Target, TSHE loves pizza. And who doesn’t? Because no matter what you like, there’s probably a pizza for you. Explore Bobby, Ann and Meredith’s pizza past, pizza present and pizza preferences. Plus: What you love (and don’t) about your pets, and a free aside of salad dressing. Rick! Rick! Rick! TSHE Recommends OXO Good...

Candy, mid priced chain restaurants, Grease 2. These are wells TSHE has gone back to many times. This week we’re talking about another popular topic that’s generally relegated to small talk. Pets! We love them! They make us crazy! They make us sad! But we keep coming back for more. The TSHE menagerie are the stars of this show so tune in for some tears and, obviously, fish tank science! In small t...

It’s still spooky halloween time. Spooky Halloweentime! In this final episode of spooky season, three of your most scaredy-cat hosts are discussing those creepy characters in movies and TV who haunted our nightscape. Are we sexually attracted to Tim Curry or just scared? Who’s more threatening, Hannibal Lecter or Buffalo Bill? Did the Phantom just need therapy? WHY did Rick Springfield date a teen...

It’s a Small Talk Spectacular™ featuring Bobby’s (latest) move, Ann’s refrigerator woes, Hillary’s fair adventures, listeners’ fears and so much more. Toonces no!

Your TSHE hosts are all busy experiencing life this week, so please enjoy this TSHE Classic episode from October 2021, wherein we talk about a subject near and dear to our hearts: Halloween candy. Original show notes: It’s Spooky Halloween Time (Spooky Halloween Time!) and Bobby, Christy, Hillary and Ann have gathered to discuss the most important part of this sacred season—the candy. From top tre...

It’s spooky halloweentime. Spooky Halloweentime! 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...

We used to be ambitious—not we’re not. Find out what Bobby, Hillary and Ann used to think they’d like to achieve or be, but now, not so much. One thing we couldn’t let pass us by, however, is National Produce-Misting Day. Spritzing blessings to all who celebrate. TSHE Recommends BAKE OFF IS BACK Connect with the show! This is your show, too. Feel free to drop us a line, send us a voice memo, or fa...

The 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 Bec...

Being 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, Hil...

This 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 se...

We 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, appli...

Do you feel that slight (very slight) breeze in the air? Fall is around the corner, and that can only mean one thing! It’s Fair season! TSHE is going back to that well we love so much - Fair Talk! This time we’re going beyond food and chatting about the sights and sounds we love. Tilt-a-whirl, the midway, horses, butter sculpture fraud - we discuss it all! Plus, stay tuned for a voice memo FROM th...

Alternate title: The Turtleneck Saved My Life Hillary, Christy, Ann and Bobby take a trip back in time to middle school in an emotional rollercoaster of an episode that might as well be sponsored by Clearasil®. Get prepared to be properly de-jacked. TSHE Recommends Blindspotting Only Murderers in the Building Connect with the show! This is your show, too. Feel free to drop us a line, send us a voi...

The 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...

The 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...

*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 absol...

The 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 ant...

Imagine, a podcast featuring the next Tony Robbins and Ed McMahon! And then instead, tune in to join Bobby and Hillary for a dive into the Follow-up File: Recent Missed Episodes Edition. They may be late to the game, but they’ve got something to say!  Plus: Bobby’s skepticism about a local storefront, Hillary’s foreshadowing to a big surprise, salmon slathered in Tacodeli Salsa Doña, and a trip on...

We’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. P...

Surprise! 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 cov...

Whether 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? Demonstration...

Please enjoy this TSHE Instant Classic from October 2020 while we recover from an array of work and nonsense this week.

If you aren’t now, we guarantee you will be once you’ve listened to this show. Meredith, Ann, Bobby, and Hillary are slicing up some che...
