Off Duty

What a week!  Here in NJ we had a little tropical storm that did a whole lot of something.  NO power and 86 degrees in the house with a toddler was super fun!  Any who, to make this week that much better, I changed up my episodes and decided to take a stroll down memory lane when I was just a tomboy 80s baby growing up with mud pies, matchbox cars, and some sweet I Love Snow Freezy...

It is the first Sunday of the month and that means Sadie joins me again on the podcast with another great topic + our random chit chat, which I love.  So pack your bags friends and lets sail away, sail away, sail away! Xx Deana

Think about it...does one size really fit all?  Not just with clothes either.  I am talking about digging deeper with this one size all concept and really yelling it to the people in the back that one size does NOT fit all.  Maybe a part 2 of things that make you go hmmm? Be sure to listen in, rate, review and SUBSCRIBE...plus Friday is my birthday!!! WOOO Xx Deana Next week join me...

Yup, you read that right!  Thanking all the X's out there.  I am sure about this topic and I guess ya'll have to listen in and see why I have boldly made the decision to do so! And always THANK YOU so much for continuing to listen and please share, rate, and review my podcast! Xx Deana

I am a question person.  I am that person you probably fear taking to the movies because I need to know MORE!  I love books, long walks to the freezer for ice cream, and something that makes me create more wrinkles on my face and go hmmm?  So why not share some of those hmmm things with you and brighten up your Sunday here on the podcast!  Oh, I also found a new creamer for my...

It is another great Sunday here on the podcast and with it being the first Sunday of the month...Sadie is joining me again! More laughter, real talk and more what Sadie says.  This episode Sadies dishes out the real truth to a youthful appearance as many ask how she maintains such a youthful appearance herself.  Is it in a jar?  Is it expensive?  Guess you will have to tune in and don't forget at...

On a Sunday all I want to do is bother my husband with... THE LIGHTING ROUND GAME OF QUESTIONS!!! Yes, I love a good on the spot question game and so thankful for elfster.com for providing me with their awesome sauce, shooting from the hip questions...hmmm now who can I interview next and ask these super fun questions...or maybe once a month just play this game with someone.  I love it! &nbsp...

Xx Deana

Hello everyone and Happy Sunday.  I am dishing out on some sweet things today and how I love finding a great app that I secretly wish I created.  So with all my obsessions of natural skincare I am spending so much time researching ingredients to make sure what I am putting on my face is the good stuff and not, well yucky.  I have come across an app that is my new best friend (dear b...

The world is changing and we need to turn to important friends and family that can truly guide and educate us to the matters that matter most.  I reconnected with a friend who wears so many hats, dedicates time to event planning, being a mother, wife, dating and relationship online contributor for a magazine, and stars in a reality show.  However, today a hat she wears since birth and sh...

With online shopping becoming more and more popular and well, Yelp, I can not tell you how much I FEAR the validity when it comes to how many stars or lack there of determine a purchase.  I mean is this person getting free swag and paid to say all this great stuff, did someone only try the product for a day and not see results and raged online?  Either way I have serious commitment issue...

WOO-HOO! 50 episodes deep and I am feeling fabulous.  Look, I have spent 10 years as a blogger/vlogger and that is no easy task, especially now with a toddler running around because mainly I want to be with him 24/7 before he tells me to take a hike.  I picked up my mic and started recording in April of last year, and now 50 episodes is a major accomplishment + I get to talk to myself ju...

Happy Mother's Day to all!  Another year as a mama to one crazy little boy.  Keeping the episode light and simple today with our travels to cupcake heaven yesterday, next week's episode all about Netflix, and my adorable little son taking the mic at the end of this podcast.   Xx Deana

Throwing it back to the vinyl days Chet Tart had the drive and passion from early on to know what it takes to get to where he wanted to be.  Working 3 jobs as a TV engineer, disc jokey and producer of a talk show, kept Chet motivated and driven to get to where he is today.  Bumping into big name people, collaborations, buying a radio station, and having some of the greatest people call h...

Happy Sunday, again. So after almost flopping and not getting ya'll another episode, I lifted my tookus off the couch and jumped on board to dish out on some of the things I actually have been having conversations with my husband...and myself. (Don't judge me, you also talk to yourself).  I thought about the things that are literally new and clearly more obvious now that I am home all day, ev...

Let's be honest, being a parent with all the children home is not easy task right now.  Whether you are a SAHM or working mom, the tasks have for sure changed and in some cases, more demanding.  I wanted to sit down with a mom to get their perspective and how they are managing life pre-corona virus and now. I am just going to say #BEMORELIKECHRISSY she was truly uplifting and real when i...

We are home more, spending more time, why not take it back to before we started dating and play the dating game.  I mean being quarantined doesn't leave many options right?  (I am kidding, I have plenty to do, so calm down) So this week my husband joins me and we play ...THE DATING GAME. Xx Deana (Next week I have a guest!!!) woo!

To be honest...today's episode is #random and just us chatting.  It is what it is and I think that is the norm right now.  (If not please don't email me and tell me, I'd like to think day pj's and night pj's exist with an extra side of all over the place) Any who, I have my husband joining me today on this rainy and cool Sunday to talk about his perspective of new life, and mine with a d...

Ya'll want to be famous...sure no problem, BUT ya need some grit and hustle! True story and man oh man do I wish I had all the updated socials 10 years ago when I was in and out of the city running around from event to event with my camera bag.  However, this did make me work and hustle for what I have today and no longer be Mr. Green.
