From our friends at Slate's podcast How To! with Charles Duhigg comes everything you need to navigate a back to school season...unlike any other!

Join us for the three part series Cheat Sheet brought to you by Slate and How To! with Charles Duhigg wherever you listen to podcasts.

An AWHONN (Association of Women's Health Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses) member and grandmother of 14, Nancy is going to help us navigate the many new roles we've been tasked with while trying to work from home. We've also got an encouraging story from Scary Mommy Kassandra, which gives new meaning to the phrase, "Won't you be my neighbor?"

This week, Keri and Ashley are joined by AWHONN (Association of Women's Health, Obstetric, and Neonatal Nurses) member, Dr. Heidi Fantasia.

Mommies can you hear me? We need to connect with you now more than ever! Brought to you by Huggies, we're going to be speaking with four incredible experts from AWHONN, the Association of Women's Health, Obstetric, and Neonatal Nurses, who will answer all of our questions regarding pregnancy and labor in the new normal, how to manage our mental health, and how to navigate life with older kids too.

On our last episode of the year, Keri and Ashley are joined by the one and only Steve Burns, the original host of Blue's Clues! Listen as Steve joins us for a very special Cartoon Confidential. Keri and Ashley reveal their resolutions for 2020, and of course we finish up with your confessions! Happy Holidays!

This week Keri and Ashley are joined by author Eve Rodsky, whose new book Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live) is the book you need on your holiday wish list. A revolutionary way to help bring light to the division of labor in partnerships, and the invisible workload many moms carry all day everyday, Eve's system rocked our worlds. We've also got a piece on winter colds, and of course, your confessions!

It's that time of year when a ton of terrific new films are released, and we are here for it all. Ashley shares about her experience meeting Emilia Clarke, mother of dragons, and star of the new flick Last Christmas. Then, in honor of the release of Frozen II, hear our Cartoon Confidential on Frozen! We're also bringing you to the red carpet of the new must see Mark Ruffalo project, Dark Waters. We round things out with the story of a heroic mom who saved the day in a parking lot, and close with your confessions!

Join Keri and Ashley as they celebrate the holiday season with four stories about small acts of kindness that made a big impact. In this special edition of Scary Mommy Speaks we share listener submissions about memorable moments when someone's kind word or action meant the world. May these stories inspire everyone as much as they did us!
