This Show Has Everything

Live from Austin (and New Brighton and West Roxbury) it’s This SHOW HAS EVERYTHING! With its 50th anniversary here, your TSHE hosts thought it was time to discuss SNL -  It’s legacy, it’s relevancy, and, of course, some of our favorite sketches (not skits) and cast members (we are NOT looking at you Dennis Miller and Victoria Jackson)!  In other news, we discuss the final (?) chapter of Ann’s Pois...

With Zuck trying his hardest to keep up with Elon and a painful future on the horizon, Bobby, Ann, Meredith and Hillary explore their and the show’s relationship with social media, and where to go from here. Plus, enough of our usual personal blather to keep it from being a complete downer. Be sure to like and subscribe!  *Except TSHE. We won’t monetize your friendship, unless we ever get a merch...

After approximately 700 shows of one podcast or the other together, you’d think we’d know absolutely everything there is to know about each other. Wrong! There are still new pieces that fit into the puzzles of our lives, and we’re going to find them all. On this episode, we’re answering some fun ice breaker questions – cereals! media binges! concerts! citrus fruits! – and finding a few deeper trut...

Happy 2025! We’ve got big plans for ourselves this year and we’re ready to discuss - eliminating abortion access, mass deportations, limiting voting access? No, that's those evil guys Project 2025. We’re focusing on TSHE/My Project 2025! We’re not talking resolutions! Your hosts just want to do better for themselves. (CW - there’s a fair amount of weight loss talk. Not prescriptive! Just a discuss...

It’s a blast from Christmas past as we re-air a favorite from deep in the Little Red Bandwagon archives. Here’s the original show description. Apologies for any dumb jokes that don’t make sense anymore, or in the case of the ones about the then President-elect, some of the ones that still do. Here’s the original description: Join Bobby, Christy, Mike, Meredith, Ann, Jeremy and Phyllis for a Secret...

It’s our last (new) episode of 2024, and Bobby, Ann and Hillary are wrapping up the year with a Small Talk Spectacular™. It’s a potpourri of pop culture, personal accomplishments, travel plans, things Mommy likes, a live Rory Reviews™, a Ho Ho Holiday Movie Review™ and more.  Enjoy your Toyotathon, double-check your o-rings and have a Happy New Year!  TSHE Recommends   Challenger Connect with the...

Ahh, the holidays. Time for togetherness, time for cheer. Time to watch the classics! It’s a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, A Christmas Story, Elf, even Die Hard. Does that sound like something TSHE would do? I don’t think so! That’s right, it’s time for another TSHE Christmas movie watchalong and this time we’re tackling the much (or medium) clamored for Hot Frosty! Join us as we inevita...

I know it’s a crazy thought, but none of us got to where we are today without the help of others. Whether it was an acquaintance giving a career push, a professor infusing joy and interest into a subject, or a friend who modeled a different way to be, they came along at the right time, and in the right way, to keep us thinking about them all these years later. And so, in this time of year where go...

Meredith, Ann, Bobby and Hillary break down their Thanksgiving feasts, your favorite Pepperidge Farm cookies, and our 2024 holiday movie watch-along options. Plus: Lessons from children, an oatmeal raisin hot take, popping and locking in all the wrong places, and a drive down a literal memory lane. Also, pie. TSHE Recommends (recipes edition) Cheddar Beer Bread Rolls Blue Ribbon Apple Pie Recipe b...

If we were on Jeopardy, the category would be Potpourri. That’s right! TSHE is cleaning up our file of miscellaneous topics! Or as Taylor Swift says in her song, Lavender Haze, “Get it off your chest, get it off my desk.” From driving to Pepperidge Farm snacks, we truly have a grab bag of subjects to discuss! And as per the TSHE style guide, we travel down many tangents along the way In small talk...

Wahh! Your TSHE hosts are busy! So we're bringing you a blast from the past. But first! A Rory Reviews!! Who's cuter? Robert DeNiro or Al Pacino? We're asking the important questions! Hoo boy, were we in a mood for some juvenile innuendo during this recording! In between double entendres and the resulting gales of laughter, we’re talking about our weird spending decisions. From clothes to chocolat...

We’re planning for the inevitable blowup of this podcast (any day now…) by putting together our TSHE tour rider. From Diet Coke (duh) to string cheese to gummies of both kinds, we’ve got to get this figured out before our star ascends. Plus, Bobby got caught ridin’ dirty, Meredith’s been dealing with health issues (human and cat), and we’re not talking about the thing that happened. TSHE Recommend...

Fire up Outlook, pull out your planners and get ready to do some backwards math because this week, we’re exploring the ways we (try to) keep our lives organized. Plus: Toaster ovens, thirsty trick-or-treaters, British procedurals, your hotel TV picks, and some love for Mandy Patinkin.  TSHE Recommends The Princess Bride (a vintage Hillary pick) Connect with the show! This is your show, too. Feel f...

Picture this - you’ve just arrived at the Hampton Inn. You’re tired from traveling and just want to crash. But then! You see your name on the comically large television. It’s beckoning you to watch some basic cable garbage. Your night is made! You’re in the hotel tv liminal space! That’s right, we’re talking the TV we only watch in hotels. From local news to questionable movies to a night judging...

Your TSHE Hosts are out and about this week, so we bring you a Coven (tm) show from the past!! It’s finally here. The TSHE Coven has convened in their candy house, surrounded the cauldron, and summoned their foremothers. Yes, we’re talking witches! We talk to an actual (former) witch, discuss why we would probably be burned at the stake (or some other sadistic sentence), describe the type of witch...

The women of TSHE are talking true crime media: what it is, how it’s made, and why people like it. We decide that, as with most things, there are a few diamonds, but it’s mostly dross. COPS? No thank you. Serial? We have some problems. In the Dark? Should win every award ever made. Along the way: the relative hotness of Ted Bundy, confirmation jewelry, the uselessness of car alarms, and did DB Swe...

This week, Bobby, Ann, Meredith and Hillary are exploring the times things in our world have felt a little (or more than a little) like a cult. Plus, recent podcast excursions, the frailty of the human body, SME listeners, the debut of Rory Reviews™, and you’ll *never* guess who adopted a stray cat named Spaghetti from a neighborhood gas station.  TSHE Recommends The Wild Robot Keys to the Kingdom...

Your TSHE Hosts are out and about this week, so we bring you an (almost) timely show from Spooky Halloweentime (tm) two years ago. But please listen to recently recorded intro/cameo/review from one of our younger listeners/future co-hosts. It’s Spooky Halloweentime (™), and your TSHE hosts are here to talk all about monsters - the monsters we loved and the monsters that scarred us for life. We als...

This week, Ann, Bobby and Hillary explore their deep and yet trivial areas of expertise, because we everyone can hold court on something. Plus, Hillary is living large with a beverage fridge, Bobby is standing ready to pack your car, and Ann is allergic to drama.  TSHE Recommends TSLOMW Connect with the show! This is your show, too. Feel free to drop us a line, send us a voice memo, or fax us a bu...

We had so much fun discussing fictional detectives last week, your TSHE hosts thought, what the hell! We want to be detectives, too! Follow along as We talk sleuthing styles, settings, potential sidekicks, and maybe most importantly, our spying accessories. In small talk, Hillary describes her Victorian woman ways (where is the fainting couch?) while watching a very dumb (and extremely entertainin...

Here at TSHE we have an ongoing fascination with the detective procedural genre, and this time we’re examining that staple character, the disarming sleuth. This could be a kindly old lady, somebody with a mental illness, a precocious child, or a fussy British man, but the one thing they have in common is that nobody expects them to solve the crime. Along the way we detour into murder trendlines, t...

September is here. PSL is back at Starbucks and Halloween candy has been out for months. Autumn is coming, and we couldn’t be happier. On this special Labor Day edition of the show, Bobby, Ann and Meredith put away their white wardrobes and draft their favorite fall things. Plus, talk of Unwrapped, neighborhood cats, Triple Loaf, Capri Sun’s possible cardinal sin, a listener-submitted correction t...

We the People of This Show Has Everything, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare…you know the rest, maybe! With the 2024 campaign in full swing, TSHE is talking politics this week! What’s our political history? Are we engaged citizens? Apathetic? Somewhere in the middle? And how many politi...

A cold disrupted this week’s recording schedule, as you’ll hear in today’s intro. This release from the TSHE Vault originally aired April 5, 2021.  Aches. Fever. Congestion. All of the pain that lasts about a day as Bill Gates’ new 5G microchips* take hold in your bloodstream and rewrite your DNA. Now that more people are getting their vaccine shots, Bobby, Meredith, Christy and Hillary are dedica...

We’ve been off for a few weeks, but that doesn’t mean we’ve been sitting around drilling our children on U.S. Presidents (just some of us). Join Bobby, Ann, and Hillary as we share what we’ve been up to since we last got together, including a family reunion with an interesting potluck choice, Bobby’s adventures on the road with Rosalita, and what happens when service people are too prompt. Plus, w...
