Snarky in the Suburbs

This pod is chock-full of goodness! The Dear Snarky letter is from a mother of the bride who accused the groom’s parents of trying to hijack her daughter’s wedding. Spoiler alert – they did no such thing. Moving on to my peeve I’m going off on people, as in anyone over the age of 10, who celebrate their birthday month. Then I squeeze in a rant that just popped into my head about people who still d...

Y’all, I’ve got another Dear Snarky letter where I think this woman’s "mom card" might need to be pulled. Just wait till you hear it. In the peeve arena I’m letting it loose about idiots who get on planes. People either need to do better or stay home. In the Snarky Confessional I have a very unpopular revelation. It’s that I hate summer.  I hate it with every fiber of my being and it all...

Y’all things are starting off spicy because I’m hot over a Dear Snarky letter. In fact, I don’t know the last time a letter has made me this mad. My peeve is thankfully less dramatic but still irritating. I just read an article about “Fashion No’s” for women over 50 and it’s beyond ridiculous. In the Snarky Confessional I get real about the C word and no it’s not the word you think it is. 😉 For m...

I’ve got a Dear Snarky letter about a wedding planner nightmare and, of course, it involves family. (Sigh.) My peeve is about parenting. People say parents have gotten worse and I say there’s always been parents who have sucked. In the Snarky Confessional I reveal a personality trait that might leave you vastly disappointed. Sorry.   For more Snarky goodness please go to my linktree and give my fi...

We’re starting off with a Dear Snarky letter about a divorced mom who tosses her wedding dress into a fire pit and her 20-year-old daughter is burning with rage. The peeve arena is jam packed with rants ranging from “I can see your bra” to “radical honesty.” In the Snarky Confessional it starts with a garage sale and ends in murder (or at least it could end in murder).    For more Snarky goodness...

It’s my 25th podcast! 🎉 I actually thought I wouldn’t make it to number five but here we all are getting our Snarky on. Today I’ve got another letter from a Gen Xer craving a divorce. This woman wants one only after five months of marriage. Yikes! In the peeve department I let loose on three mini peeves starting with the fact that not everyone woman wants to look sexy and by every woman I mean me...

I’ve got a Dear Snarky letter that we need to talk about. A woman who’s wanted a divorce for five years and yet is afraid to get one because her 30something daughters are freaking out over their parents splitting up. Just WTH? In the peeve department we all need to agree that there are just too many graduations. Do we really need pre-K and 3rd grade graduation ceremonies? NO. Now let’s saunter off...

Lord help us the pod starts with a Dear Snarky letter that has me siding with the letter writer and then after a couple of paragraphs I’ve got the icks. I shake off those icks and head to my peeve – bitches. I’m actually pro bitch and you’re going to find out why. Then I take my bitchy self and swagger on over to the Snarky Confessional where I share just one of my stories about being a private de...

It's a podcast that's flush with snarky goodness! The Dear Snarky letter is about a house being hit hard with toilet paper but the problem isn't the T.P. it's a neighbor being intentionally stupid. In the pet peeve department, I go off on college and I share that my family calls me the “Dream Killer.” (#rude) Next up is the Snarky confession where I divulge that I've got a bad...

Yay!!! It's Weekend Snark. I'm trying out adding in a weekend podcast so let me know if it should stay or go. Today I've got a juicy update to the "Happiness Hoarder" letter from podcast episode three. Then I move on to buzzy topics that include Prince Harry, Bravo's "The Valley", and the "romance" of the 73-year-old former Patriots coach and a 24-year...

Y'all this Dear Snarky letter is a hoot! A woman is upset that at almost 60 she's been asked to be a bridesmaid in a wedding and dress like a Disney Princess. In the peeve department I've got three and I'm starting with "horseshoe" jeans and go deep on why "Giving Grace" is giving me the icks. In the Snarky Confessional we go on a journey to when I had to take c...

We’re starting off strong with a Dear Snarky letter that made me howl. As in would you wear the world’s ugliest mother-of-the groom dress to keep your future daughter-in-law happy? For me it’s a solid oh hell no. Moving on to peeves I examine the grandparent hate that’s taking over my social media feed. Do grandparents in 2025 suck?  Then prepare yourself for things getting weird at the Snarky Con...

This podcast is starting off with a prom drama mama. Lord have mercy I fear if this woman doesn’t take my advice she’s going to be very sorry. Sashaying over to my peeves it’s been two years and I’m still raging against the cropped blouse. I’m proud to report I held an impromptu meeting of cropped blouse haters at a women’s clothing store and it brought me immense joy. As an added bonus I crammed...

It's Snarky vacation time! The fun starts with a Dear Snarky letter about a pair of family vacation grifters. Then it's time to take a trip to my vacay peeves - warning 2 out of 3 are gross. Next buckle up and put your tray table in the upright position for the Snarky Confession. Have I ever told you I once worked in law enforcement? For more Snarky goodness please go to my linktree and gi...

OMG this episode's Dear Snarky letter is making me so mad. Imagine being sick and living with a spouse that's making your illness all about him. Next, I’m popping off with a peeve about hot weather. In a surprise to no one I’m not a Merry Sunshine type of human. The pod’s big finish is a visit to the Snarky Confessional where I weave a terrifying tale of when I delivered my own child (some might s...

Get ready to be creeped out. I’ve got a Dear Snarky letter that will have you saying, “Oh, hell no.” In the peeve portion of the pod I go off on happy people. Yes, happy people. I find them annoying and concerning. Then a visit to the Snarky Confessional brings a story about how I tried to do an office coup. Spoiler alert - I failed.   For more Snarky goodness please go to my linktree and give my...

Y’all this podcast is chock-full of me rambling like a fool. There’s a Dear Snarky letter from a woman who’s on her second marriage and after less than three months of wedded bliss I see disaster looming. She's got an adult stepdaughter who wants to get into her wallet.   Then I go off a rant about Spring Break. Seriously, who's got a beef with that? Apparently, I do. Weird, right? Next up...

We're starting off strong with a letter that's going to make you mad. A woman writes in for advice about her adult daughters trying to "upgrade" the free vacation they're getting courtesy of their mom. Then it's apology time for a mega rant. I went off on all the judgey, sanctimonious women that try to paint motherhood as a walk in the park. Spoiler Alert - They're ly...

People really do need to “mind their business” and I’ve got a Dear Snarky letter that proves this point. A woman fresh off an ugly divorce is being pressured to date by her family and friends who apparently think finding a man will be the end to all of her problems. In the “Peeve” department I'm calling out highly specific wedding dress codes that come with mood boards. Yes, my friends, mood b...

Oh my, I've got a Dear Snarky letter about a woman who got so furious at a funeral a pastor told her she was going to hell. Next up is less of a peeve and more of a celebration that hopefully resonate with all of you. Then OMG I've added some hot topics and I wrap the pod up with the Snarky Confessional. Spoiler - it involves theatre parents.

I’m calling this podcast “It’s Not About You” and it starts with a doozy of a Dear Snarky letter. Then brace yourself because I go DEEP on how/why there are so many women who have a knack for making everything that has to do with their kids about them. My rant/peeve is about the beauty industry. I can’t be the only one that thinks contouring is the devil’s work. I finish up with a Snarky Confessio...

It’s a rant-tastic podcast! First up is a Dear Snarky letter about a mom who’s mad as hell and she’s not going to take it anymore over school projects. This activates my rant mode, and I go deep on the diorama of doom and my science fair board PTSD. F-i-n-a-l-l-y I shut up and go to my peeve which is the term “girl’s girl.” Sorry not sorry. And I close it out with a trip to the Snarky Confessional...

It's a frosty snow day in Snarky land but the pod is red hot with a letter about Bridal Shower Disrespect. Oh my! Next up is my peeve and it's all about romantic tropes that suck. As in just say no to a literal bed of roses. And fresh from the Snarky Confessional a true life tale of being rejected. ❄️

In this podcast I've got a Dear Snarky letter about a funeral failure and then I go off on funerals. $50,000 casket - no thank you. My pet peeve is people defending every day "creepdom" and then in the Snarky confessional brace yourself for a five alarm loser alert.

It’s a “Cheater Alert” in this podcast. I’ve got a Dear Snarky letter that’s all about a cheating spouse and the fallout from being a friend that delivers that news. Would you ever tell a friend that you think her spouse is cheating? Then there’s a pet peeve that taunts me so much I’ve done research. Spoiler alert I don’t agree with the findings. Then I’ve got a “correction” from last week’s podca...
