  • I WATCHED THE DOC MATERNAL INSTINCT SO HARD
    Jun 30 2026

    We watched the true crime documentary Maternal Instinct and we are not okay. Join us as we jump into the worse case of all time but before that we share the story of a haunted hawk sent from the heavens to get us to focus. Trigger warning: this case is very graphic so look it up before you listen.

    Jun 9 2026

    It's the end of the school year, and that means tears of (mostly) joy, but a few tears of sadness. As the last one of the kids exits elementary school, it means closing a beloved chapter and opening a new one. Cheers to all the moms who make elementary school magical.

    ABOUT US
    Female comedy duo Kristin Hensley and Jen Smedley have been performing, teaching, and writing comedy internationally for a combined 40+ years. They have been moms for one quarter of that time and it shows. How do they cope? They laugh about all of the craziness that comes with being a mom and they want you to laugh about it too! From snot to stretchmarks to sleepless nights, Kristin and Jen know firsthand that parenting is a hard job and they invite you to join them in taking it all a little less seriously (even if for a few short minutes a day). After all, Jen currently has four days of dry shampoo in her hair and Kristin’s keys are still in her front door. They try, they fail, they support each other, and they mom as hard as they can.
