Transcribe →Husband Crimes, Rangers News, and Dak
Mar 1201:04:46Tap to summarizeThe wheels are coming off QUICK this week, starting with some deep sports psychology talk RIGHT out of the gate, followed by Julie admitting to doing “the worst thing she’s ever done” (it happened this week). Emily breaks some big news in our Sports Skorts segment, plus we gotta talk about the red-hot Dallas Stars. And with Spring Training well underway, the Rangers roster is shaping up to look a little bit different this season. Should we expect a different result?? Plus, what in the world happened with Dak and his fiancé? And last but not least, don’t miss the debut of our new segment: Husband Crimes. The first offense on the docket? Dish soaking!

Transcribe →Parton and the Pickle
Mar 501:01:34Tap to summarizeLast week, we said that if we hit 10K followers on Instagram by the time we filmed this week's show, we'd each wear a costume that the other picked out for us. Well, guess what!? We hit 10K! So naturally, this week's show starts off with quite the costume reveal... get ready to meet Dolly Forbes and Pickle Jones! Two years ago, the Mavs and Stars were both gearing up for a deep playoff run with bright futures ahead. Today, the franchises are in two completely different places and it feels like they're headed two completely different directions. How did we get here? Also, we have some pressing parenting questions to address: What do you tell your kids if they want a YouTube channel? How much are paying for youth sports? (Also: WHY??) Do we have to worry about helicopter GRANDparents now? What the heck does it mean when people say they're "salting" their kids?! And last but not least, we've been on a little bit of a prank kick lately, so Emily gives us the latest update on her mom, who passed the latest prank test with flying colors. All that and more on this week's episode of The Mom Game! Thank you as always to our amazing sponsors: Gateway GMC Coppola Wine Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Transcribe →Olympic Reflections, Bones, Stains, and Diddy
Feb 2601:06:19Tap to summarizeThe Winter Olympics have finally concluded and all we can say is: WOW. So much to reflect on as we still bask in the glow of Team USA's double gold in men's and women's hockey. And who would have thought that the 20-year-old athletes would be schooling all of us with some hardcore wisdom and life perspective? We got a deeper look behind the scenes of what it takes to become an Olympian, and seeing how they deal with the mental pressure of it all has us feeling so inspired (and impressed). Also: After his epic hockey monologue, we've decided we want Mike Tirico to narrate the minutia of our days. What would it sound like to have Tirico reflect on Emily’s latest standoff with her bacon grease stain on her suede couch? Or perhaps her mom’s iPhone Diddy drama? It feels like it’s already been a long 2026, but we're taking it one week at a time. Let loose and laugh with us today! Thank you as always to our sponsors for making this week’s show possible!

Transcribe →Jimmy Nelson and Life After the NFL with Crawford Ker
Feb 1901:01:05Tap to summarizeReal-life standup comedian (and dad) Jimmy Nelson joins us on this week's show for some laughs and fun conversation! And Julie’s back from Canada and the Winter Olympics are in full swing! How dialed in are we this year? And also, what about that one cheating biathlete?? And why is Joe Judge giving bad life advice? Plus, Emily visits with former Dallas Cowboy Crawford Ker who shares insights on life after football, building a business, and the effect that it all took on his family life. At the end of the day, we're all just trying to navigate the complex and competing priorities of family life and work life. Retired NFL players... they're just like us!

Transcribe →Baby Mama and Grandma Drama
Feb 1200:52:23Tap to summarizeThe Super Bowl gave us PLENTY of things to discuss, however the game itself was not one of them (zzz). What did you think of the halftime show? Was Bad Bunny a good bunny? Also, WHY was there so much drama about it? We continue to be invested in the heartbreaking and confusing Nancy Guthrie kidnapping story. Plus, we’re dissecting the latest rumblings from the basketball rumor mill… is Mark Cuban really trying to buy the Mavericks back? Could this be the move that finally sets the franchise back on course? Also… can he bring Luka back? We just want to see 77 in Dallas again!! And last but not least, we are once again pranking our children for our (and your) entertainment! Thank you as always to our sponsors for making this week’s show possible!

Transcribe →ADHD, The Big Game, and Facebook Marketplace
Feb 500:59:46Tap to summarizeThe Schmuper Bowl is upon us and we have some important questions to address: Who do we think will win? What will we be eating? Does Emily have a crush on Bad Bunny? Plus, does everybody have ADHD or what? Julie shares some of her latest insights that have helped her family keep their cool and build their confidence through life’s tough moments. Also, can you picture Emily making a transaction on Facebook Marketplace? It’s as awkward as you thought it would be. Story time! Plus, we’re doing some TMG homework on Heated Rivalry…. we’re intrigued! Thank you as always to our sponsors for making this week’s show possible!

Transcribe →Still Snow, Mexico, Luka, and Stafford
Jan 2900:48:38Tap to summarizeJoin us as we all enjoy some cabin fever from the Coppola home studios! Emily has made it out of her extended vacation in Mexico and back to her family in Fort Worth. Julie’s riding out day 5 (or 100?) inside with the kids. As the Texas ice is slowly starting to melt, we are all ready for things to get back to normal. Speaking of Texas ice, the Stars have some last minute magic (meow!). Plus, Luka made a visit home and spoiled some lucky Mavs fans. And Matthew Stafford may have lost in the NFC championship but he stole the show on a Nest camera afterwards. And while most of us are easing back into normalcy after the snowstorm, some families and communities are now dealing with a reality that will never go back to normal. Our TMG hearts are with everyone in DFW that’s experiencing the tragic and unexpected loss of a loved one this week.

Transcribe →Snow, Hormones, and GLP-1s
Jan 2201:16:17Tap to summarizeIt’s Snowmageddon 2026! Emily’s pulling a Ted Cruz and bailing to Mexico but alas, a sh*t storm of her own is erupting just as she’s trying to leave town. Why is the universe out to get us moms? Can’t we just get a break? No. The answer is no. Plus, we welcome Morgan Debs, owner of House of Skin and Health Dallas to talk all things hormones, menopause, GLP1s, botox, supplements for adults and children, and more. All that and more on this week’s episode of The Mom Game. Thank you as always to our amazing sponsors!

Transcribe →Insta Feeds, Golden Globes, and Women's Health Myths
Jan 1500:55:57Tap to summarizeWe’re busting our lovely lady humps in this week’s episode! Emily's Instagram feed needs to go sit in time out and Julie's fresh off a nice little “hurkle durkle.” Plus, the Golden Globes have us breaking down the state of the film industry while dissecting the cultural merits of some of the year’s best performances on screen (JK, we’re making inappropriate jokes and talking about hot celebs). And we all know there’s plenty of women’s health advice to go around, so we decided to do a little mythbusting ourselves. So, what’s a hurkle durkle you ask? Listen and find out!
