Two Broad Casters

Welcome to our pre Holiday podcast where we chat about Thanksgiving and Christmas and generally the year end season of celebration, gratitude, giving and all things lovely.  However, so many times this is not the case for how many feel about it all.  Perhaps a reboot of our mindsets about the triggers of the season are in order?  A cast filled with refection, some coping ideas, getting creative wi...

The Two Broads had helicopter parenting on their minds but per usual the conversation quickly grew into something more zoomed out.  Parenting is hard, awesome yet hard but we wondered if sometimes we make it harder by being in our own way, forgetting to make it fun and missing things that could ease the weight of responsibility. Parenting may be extra hard when we are racing to  grow up before our...

Poet, Actor, teacher, Cameron Mitchell joins us on this podcast.  We discuss his very unique and creative projects he has going on and how they tie into community building.  Of course, as per usual with most Two Broad Casters podcasts, we stretch the conversation into something even deeper.  Words! The magic of the gift of communicating, how important they are to share, how they can encourage or d...

This week the broads get into a motivating and passionate discussion about volunteering.  How there is such beauty in the giving.  Being a part of seeing a human get a hand up is one of the greatest gifts we have been given.  Volunteering can aid in anxiety, depression, loneliness, and feeling isolated as it pulls us away from our own sometimes levels of too much about our self and our needs.  It'...

In Episode #58, the two broads have a chat on self employment. How it has changed over the years and how the time for ideas has flourished and has changed the landscape of culture.

In Episode #57, the two broads have a conversation about how it seems like between some people pining over an era of the past they had or reliving a trauma from their way back, too many may be spending too much time dwelling in the past.  Add to that all of the folks feeling anxious about the future and combined there may be too few with their heads in the present.  Just another Broad branded conv...

These two broads were on a month long hiatus from recording so this was our post adventure cast to fire back up.  Sarah had been in Europe for three weeks and Lauri was farm sitting for Sarah as well as revisiting her old home state of Tennessee.  

So many desire a meaningful relationship. So many broken relationships. So many broken hearts. So many feel disheartened about not finding true love. The Two Broads have a conversation about perhaps some fresh perspectives about this topic and how we disregard red flags or dismiss important discussions before barreling forward.  Where should it start?  Well, we conclude, it starts with you. 

These two broads feel like commitment is at an all time low.  Seems a lot of people cannot even commit to social invitations.  What is the deal here?  A great conversation examining the examples of lack of commitment, perhaps some reasons for it, the lack of prioritization and more.  What are you all in committed to?  Are your commitments attached to value?  Join us!!  

Woah! The broads ventured into a topic about conversational apologies and went on a full on salty counter culture, censorship, social engineering whirlwind; all seemingly connected as only a great conversation can land it.  Turns out, this just may be a very, very important conversation. 

The Two Broads return in this episode with their coffee talk style discussion on an observation made regarding self control.  It seems almost a bad word to some as though it is equal to freedom robbing.  It's interesting because we find it to be the opposite.  A good and balanced life requires self regulation.  Tune in and comment on the social media.

David Zach of the band Remedy Drive joins the cast on a very candid discussion centering around human trafficking. Remedy Drive's music has partnered with the non profit organization, The Exodus Road and we discuss that partnership, how we all have things we can do to towards the cause, how art can spread a message and so much more.  Raw, heartfelt and poetic.  Darkness and hope. 

Don't miss this awesome conversation with Todd Crandell of Racing For Recovery.  A former addict turned Iron Man competitor and founder of his organization that helps other addicts live their best life.  The focus of this conversation is hope, dealing with root causes and how sobriety should be normalized.  One to share for sure!!

The Broads wanted to find a guest that could speak on the SAG/AFTRA strike and they hit the jackpot when Carla Christina Contreras agreed to come and have a conversation with us.  Carla Christina is the new President Elect for the Nashville, TN SAG chapter but also an accomplished actress, singer, painter, author and a real mover and shaker.  She is one of the few on the negotiation committee of t...

The conversation that happened when a Boomer, (don't call her that), a Gen Xer, (you can call her that) and a Gen Z, (don't call him that) took to the mic discussing generational gaps.  The conversation swerved in and out of many aspects about differences and similarities and the need to embrace each other.  Some great mind fodder and some mic drops by the 20 something who happens to be one of the...

Take a bit of a nostalgic look with us over the past year of showing up for the Two Broad Casters Podcast.  Sure we are tooting our own horns a bit here but like the Broads say, if not us ? Who.  We greatly appreciate those who have tuned into our podcast and we are just warming up.  Thank you!!

In this episode the Two Broads started a discussion about what feels like swimming in a deep sea of social identities.  When are they good? When are they bad?  Seems like we just got started on this topic and had so much more to say than we felt like we were able to get in.  Weigh in on this topic on Facebook or Instagram and let us know if a part 2 should be recorded with any thoughts you have. F...

The Two Broads welcome special guest, Mike Maharrey from The 10th Amendment Center & Schiff Gold website to discuss where we are with debt; both nationally and personally.  Mike is also an author, public speaker, hockey player and sax player making for an all around interesting guy.  Of course the conversation meanders into other important reminders we all could use thinking about.  Tune in and sh...

Childlike grown ups.  Sometimes it seems we are surrounded by people who have taken the "I'll never grow up" approach to life.  The broads discuss the Peter Pan Syndrome on this episode.  Does having a childlike heart mean you should not mature?  Is immaturity causing a host of problems? Why is maturity seemingly an unsavory word?  What is happening?  Come fly with us on this discussion Broad Band...

The truth is, humans need boundaries in our lives for most things we do.  Isn't lack of boundaries how we end up with bad habits?  Most are pretty good with setting boundaries, until it comes to personal relationships but boy are those the ones we truly need at some points in our life.  Never easy; always a wise move though.  Boundaries have to be connected to our acknowledgement that we cannot co...

Join the two broads conversation regarding happiness.  Is that the ultimate thing to be pursuing?  What if in the pursuit of something else, you find what actually brings contentment vs happiness? Is happiness illusive or a spontaneous happening despite what our circumstances are without any pursuit?  Mental food for thought, broad style.  

The Two Broads have special guest, Max Hutchinson on the show today discussing AI & The Arts.  Unscripted, uncensored and a wild ride in their discussion about how AI may affect the creatives.  A very broad and thought provoking topic that meanders into all sorts of aspects and perspectives in regards to this issue. Max is an AI visual artist as well as a musician who brings varied view points to...

The emphasis on money spent and the same old core curriculum from government education is a model not working. Summer is a great time to dig deep into what it is that YOU think will best suit your child for the time in which they live.  What can prepare them best?  Why do we lament the lack of so much so often over the results we see each day from the years young people are kept in school.  Time t...

In this weeks episode the broads enter into some salty discussion about the importance of art for themselves and within the culture.  Are we in healthy appreciation of the arts or merely consumers of art?  Do we make art and artists into idols?  Are we tapping into our own creativity? Does our taste in art reveal something about ourselves? Does art help to unite or divide our culture?  All that an...

The Two Broads have a love for home education and feel it an important topic to bring to our mix of broad topics. In this episode we examine the common fear or concern of how our kids may "get behind" if they are at home.  Our main remedy is fully realizing the truth of, get behind what??
