Hot Mess Mil MomS

Today's episode is all about self care. We could just say yoga, face masks, moisturize, and daily walks work, but there are so many options. We exercise self care in many ways, and want to share our methods with the world. We k!ll things, cut things, drink the fermented juice, and enjoy every aspect of tea (not the herbal kind). Share your creative self care methods with us by commenting or hi...

After much technical dificulties, we bring you our part deux update on the blow in the low country. Charities gone wrong, parenting hells, and two hot messes trying to fight the internet! Some of the episode unfortunately was cut short, but we are not pros, and are too broke to hire some!

Volunteering can be the most rewarding task to do. Helping your community, enriching lives, putting positivity and good faith out into the universe are all benefits from giving a little or a lot of your time and energy. Even more important is being a dignified volunteer coordinator. It is important to be an example of dignity, morality, and encourage hard work from your volunteers. If you are not...

The military life is full of ups and downs. There are tribulations that families face, but the Army compensates with tax free Michael Kors bags and a Starbucks around every corner. We could list every privilege given to the military families, but we would be here all day, and frankly, we have better sh!t to do. This week's episode is explaining the difference between privileges and entitlement...

It has been a long couple of weeks. Difficult to do a podcast when you have NO VOICE! Luckily my cohost is still alive. We are back, and hopefully all feeling 100%. For today's episode it is catching up with the he// of unpacking everything. Whether it is new schools, new friendships, new experiences, and any other lemons life is trying to get us to squeeze juice from! Happy Valentines Day to all...

In light of the recent mass changes, and liberties being taken with a swift movement of a pen...... we wanted to reflect on the imaginary executive orders we would take in our lives as dependas. It was suprising how our minds really wandered with this task, but we were able to narrow it down to just a creative few. In this week's TikTok preview live we were even able to meet a spouse and answe...

We are back after a long holiday, moving, flooding, and military mom disasters! It is now 2025, and let us tell you....... we have not enjoyed the trial run! We definitely want a refund! This week we catch up with the hellacious sh!t shows that have been our past weeks, and give our solemn pinky promises to return next week come he// or high water. Enjoy our misery to make your start to the new ye...

Mom is the real Santa. So why isn't my face on a Coca Cola truck? Momming is difficult everyday. The holidays amp up the difficulty. Shopping, cooking, planning, everyday duties, traveling, and making sure everyone has their wants and needs met are all stressful duties that seem to land on us as mothers. Moms can't write their letter to Santa because guess what.......

Santa Baby, just make the world revolve around me, and my needs! Well, it is December. We are no longer considered crazy for having our trees up. Our homes are shiny with red and green like the Griswolds! Kids expect miracles every morning from that creepy little elf doll. Similarly, families expect miracles every holiday season from the Army. Join us as we discuss some of the more common and hila...

To be a bitch or not be a bitch? That was Shakespeare's real question I think! Whether it is gus fraba, woosah, or counting to a million, we all have different ways of keeping ourselves calm. What may work for one, does not always work for another. Everyday we meet Karens and Kens. Temptations are all around us that make us want to explode or show a less demure side of ourselves. Even if we do not...

Just because you're an adult, doesn't make you honest. Mean Girls, Heathers, Scary Movie, and all 90's and 80's movies taught us that high school is tough. Bullying is a rough patch that at a minimum 75% of kids face at least once in their lives. Today it is beginning earlier in life. Elementary school is the new high school. Should a kid be punished for defending themselves? What is the differenc...

Before you sign on to a task or commit to something, you want to do your research. Before joining the Army or becoming an Army spouse, you talk to a recruiter. You also watch movies or shows or Google some points. Or you do something else entirely. You soon discover, after signing that red, white, and blue line, that all of your "research" was bullsh!t. You made assumptions as a civilian about the...

We are back after a missed week. This was due to extreme amounts of Gatorade and chicken soup. Veronica braved the PCS drama! Join us as we catch up on our parenting hell, favorite screenshots, mover drama, and general f$ckery of the week. Excuse the technical difficulties as we venture into new territory of long distance podcasting. Still working out the bugs.

First you get the soldier, then you get the Tricare, then you get the Charger! We all face the daunting battle of who has it harder. Does a SAH parrent or a working parent face more struggles? Women especially, will tear each other apart on a social media post over this topic. Well, we are not falling into that trap today, but unless you have been both, you really do not have a say. In the militar...

I'll take Army jibberish for $500 Alex! There are acronyms for almost everything. They are used to abbreviate, save time, save energy, save ink, whatever else is needed to save! If you do not understand what they mean, they are completely useless. As we nod and smile while our soldiers talk, we are clueless. Today we play a little educational game of "Guess the acronym!" Maybe you learn a little s...

Army is a language all in it's own! You wanna be supportive, and listen. What do you do when you have no clue what they are talking about? Just nod and wave. Smile and look pretty haha! There are things we have to know, such as unit or phone numbers, but there are things we really do not need to have to have stored in our brains. How many tanks are running. Why they need to have QRS's to get the L...

It's the not so secret lives of dependa wives today! Reviews and reactions are important. There are many sites out there with business reviews. We look, read, and make judgements based on these reviews. Whether you are researching the next base to move to, because you are delusional or fresh and think we actually get to choose, or trying to choose a realtor (that is not full of drama). There is on...

It's been a rough week for us hot mess moms! This week's episode was one of no scripts, and just chatting about life! Our highs and lows in the military, some laughable screenshots of the week, and just random giggles about the fuckery of life. Enjoy our laid back time, and much needed R & R!

When we were kids, we hated being told what to do. Teachers, coaches, parents, and all adults had rules, lessons, advice, and guidance instructing us on how to live life. They gave us this instruction from the moment we woke to the time we ended our day. Now as adults, we have no clue what to do half of the time...... unless you're a soldier! Lucky assholes! As spouses, some of us have careers and...

Volunteering in the military ie the FRG’s, much like democracy, spandex, and the Facebook, things began with good intentions, and then it’s just spiraled downhill and ended with Kamala/ Trump, one size fits all, and spouse groups. Whether you watched Army Wives or watched Mean Girls, you are gonna relate and pretty much know what it’s like to volunteer in the army. Trying to make friends in the mi...

We most definitely aren't within the animal limits on post. If I was to jump on this bandwagon, my furbabies would identify as humans. Petey believes he popped from my meatbox as every night he tries climbing up into my uteral region. Snuggles way too close. Not sure about yours, but our pets cost way too much joyfully, and if we could, we'd write them off on our taxes! We gladly use our entitleme...

Ain't Banboozlin' Ya! We had a hog killin' time making this episode just chewing the fat about the clusterfuck of why everybody wants to be in charge of the most meaningless of haberdasheries, the dangers of addle headed postal workers, and why people get so ackocked when their identities are stolen! Let's not forget about those ajeed neighbors who take advantage of these barkin' at the knot siche...

This week was definitely proof that we are hot mess moms! From family busting in, to shit face Disney time, to the houses falling down around us. That's just part of life though not just as military spouses, but as parents in general. Join us as we bullsh!t about handling the bills, how we track the kids, why our housing company needs to step it up, and why we didn't keep the ho clothes. Don't for...

Mayday Mayday! You must panic, but there's no emergency! This is only a test! Welcome back to another week of our hot mess military life of parenting, trolling, spousing, and fuckery. We picked our favorite posts. We wanna know why Zuckerberg won't let us cuss. We are praying for those affected by the hurricane. See!?! We are sensitive!

Things are always a little different in the military whether you're grocery shopping, in the PTO, or scrolling through social media. Today I return to the podcast world with a fabulous co-host to discuss the drama and funny side of being a milspouse with all its fuckery!
