The Wives are wrapping up Season 3 with a very special guest and astrologer to musicians, entertainers and their families, Richard Wolf.

Also, Chondra is terrible at texting and Misha is very tired. See you for Season 4 in the Fall! www.wolfintuitive.com

In a month gone wild, the Wives are back to talk about the insanity of May, their big fancy night out, breaking cardinal NYC taxi rules and why your projects always deserve their own place on the family calendar. Also, Chonny and Misha are writing a SCREENPLAY! Help them manifest it, please and thank you.

The Wives sit down with incredibly insightful guest and music-industry therapist, Denise Devenish to talk about the mental health challenges of the music and other creative industries, addressing conflict head-on, the co-existence of magic and suffering, mom life, and why pizza and chips with vinegar cures all.

The Wives are home from the West Coast and ready to dish on their respective adventures. Misha is talking Coachella, from her fits to top show picks and Chonny gives all the details about her cross-country train trip. Also, much chatter about grass maintenance, The Last Dinner Party, hot pollen and the Wives' desperate need for a two-week Amtrak writing sabbatical.

This week, the Wives are welcoming lovely, non-stop hustling Ashley Meyer to the show to talk about life as a merch maven, not letting the hard days make a hard life, off-day activities, advice, Taco Bell and how to deal when your fiancé is your boss. Having to record from the back of a moving vehicle in the midwest doesn't make for the best sound quality, but such is the BW life. Bear with us please! Also, there was an eclipse and Misha's sinus infection won't go away.

After a forced week off due to technical issues, the Wives return in full force with new book clubs, traumatic writing life updates, Coachella planning, self-help book breakdowns and all the tangents you’ve come to love. Also, this is your reminder to BACK UP YOUR COMPUTER.

This week, the Wives are exploring the universe with a light dive into a theory that has been keeping them up at night. Come along as they ponder principles and contend with life’s greatest mysteries…all in under 25 minutes? (Disclaimer: Contrary to popular belief, the Wives are NOT actual astrophysicists…yet.) Also, Misha is frolicking with wild horses and Chonny prepares for a 65-hour cross country train ride.

Sunny days are upon us and the Wives are inspired to make big life overhauls and try new things. This week's guest is lovely North Carolina transplant, home hardware account manager and band wife, Caitlin Thomsen, who's sharing her daily mantras and tips for making big moves while raising two boys on the go. From chasing the unknown in the midst of a pandemic to embracing (or erasing?) your flaws, why bad TV is better with an English accent, handling "free-time" jealousy while holding it all down, and how new handles can upgrade your entire home, Caitlin teaches us all to dance to the chaotic techno beat of our own drums. Also, Misha is taking vitamins for now, and Chonny is taking her kid to school in pajamas.

It's Spring and the Wives are more than ready to get their lives and homes in order. This week, Chonny and Misha are back from the edge of the flu to share loads of crowd-sourced cleaning/organization tips and tricks.

It’s the Wives’ Diamond Jubilee 75th episode and they’re welcoming a gem of a guest to the show with digital creative mastermind and Rhode Island native, Michelle Swain. From music cruises and leading double lives, to navigating the world of IVF with a partner who is away and confronting hidden insecurities, no topic is off limits in this triple convo. Also, Chonny and Misha take a decided stance on Starter jackets…and Lululemon.
