Stuff with Shanon

Do you ever wish that people would just go away? It seems like the less you want someone around, the more you see them. So I've come up with some creative, non-harmful ways to get rid of people you don't like. Plus, what should Dianthe do about that ugly, windowless wall on her house? We discuss in this episode.

Did anyone besides me say these words over spring break- "I'm ready for my shift of carrying the sleeping baby through the muddy cow pasture..."? Plus, Dianthe catches a man with his pants down. We'll talk about all of this and more in this episode of Stuff With Shanon.

It's International Women's Day and we're celebrating with a special Friday edition of SWS. Dianthe tells her daughter that she's a bada** all the time and she tells her to show people how crazy she can be. How does this send Shanon into a tailspin? Find out in this episode.

Dianthe's convinced that I love my nephews WAY more than she loves her own kids. She may be right. Plus, hear about the newest things that keep me awake at night! Like my sympathy for the first lady to get her time of the month, a crazy cartoon mayor, and the $170 I spent on Paw Patrol live tickets. Ugh.

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day and there's a pretty good chance that you've not gotten the perfect gift for your loved one yet. You probably don't even know what the perfect gift would be! Don't worry, though, because I've got you covered with some once in a lifetime Valentine's Day gift ideas that are sure to get you some lovin' or arrested...

Do you ever click on the links that pop up when you're reading a random article? I do it ALL the time. That's how I found this gem. "What does the first part of your body that you wash say about your personality?" Plus, why was Dianthe on the phone with 911 while she was creeping beside someone on the street? You've gotta listen to find out.

Are you celebrating Januhairy? Do you buy your thongs on Amazon? Can you get mouth herpes from drinking the wine at church? We discuss all of this and so much more in this episode of Stuff With Shanon.

How does football work? How many times did you have to plunge your toilet over Christmas break? Do you have a pair of leather pajamas to wear at night? What comes up if you google "what should I wash my front privates with?" All this and more in this episode of SWS.

It's the last podcast post of 2018! So I'm wrapping up the year with some final thoughts. Should the CDC intervene in the Catholic church due to the potential of spreading the cold and flu? Was Dr. Seuss on crack? And one fast food fact that might change the way you do things FOREVER (in a good way)!

Dianthe is out sick, so that means that I got to do a whole podcast all by myself again! I've chosen to go way back this time and countdown some of my favorite bits starring me! Hopefully you agree with at least one of them...

Have you gone back as an adult and watched the movies you saw as a kid and thought to yourself "WTH?" We have! Plus, the search for the most ignorant social media post is on. Is a squirrel a reptile? Are there really only 7 countries on Earth? #IgnoranceIsBlissAndHysterical

Are you a mom (or an aunt) that's still trying to master the act of using a public restroom while you juggle the kids? Would you vote for a political candidate that has public restroom nanny attendants as part of their platform? If you would, then you might be voting for Shanon in a future election. We discuss in this episode.

Self-awareness is a pretty important part of life, right? So why would any chronically single person think it's a good idea to start writing a book with relationship advice? Even worse...why would the same person who wrote the children's book "Big Booty Judy" think for even a second that another book was a good idea? Check out Shanon's "Relationship Advice I Thought Of While Driving Alone In My...

We all lose sleep over some seriously stupid stuff, but Shanon's list of things keeping her up at night is just dumb. (Sorry Shanon) Can you relate to any of this?

Have you ever felt like maybe the universe is out to tick you off? Plus, Jesus Band Aids, half-marathon training, and judgy runners. That's what we're talking about in this episode!

Dianthe's got an anxious kid, so she's found a miracle way to calm him down. This might be some great advice for parents everywhere! (Although it's not FDA approved and Dianthe's NOT a doctor)...

Shanon went on a beach vacation with her sister's family. Find out about that road trip and the interesting sleeping arrangements. Plus, what's the thinking behind using a loofah in the shower? Shanons's got a big issue with this.

Are you part of the no poo movement, too? (It's really NOT what you think it is). And we talk about Shanon's irrational aggression towards Charlie Puth, Luke Bryan, gum chewers, gum poppers, and more.

Shanon is REALLY upset with some people about a stupid animal cracker box and Dianthe dishes all the dirt on the worst idea EVER family road trip. Does her husband intentionally mess stuff up just to drive Dianthe insane? And how long did what should've been a 7 hour drive actually take? Find out in this episode of Stuff With Shanon.

The kids are back in school and, while most parents are thrilled to have some peace and quiet, Dianthe isn't. She's had a meltdown, her kids had a meltdown...it's been a rough start to the school year. Can you relate?

Why would Shanon come in wanting to talk about the best/worst parts of the 2018 VMA's when she didn't even see them? And today would've been Kidd's birthday, so Shanon did something she judges other people for doing...she wrote a letter to him.

Shanon gets really chatty when she's tired, so maybe today wasn't the best day to record a podcast. But if you're ready for some Shanon unleashed while she talks about checking stuff off of her bucket list, then here you go.

Shanon isn't a mom, but she is an aunt. And she likes to think that she's a darn good one. She was a little embarrassed, though, when someone was riding in the car with her and looked at the most played songs on her iTunes. Find out what Shanon listens to the most while cruising around town in her 2013 Mazda CX-5 CUV in this episode of Stuff With Shanon.

Dianthe is going with the family to Myrtle Beach for a reunion. If you know Dianthe, you're gonna figure out very quickly why this trip might be the worst idea ever.

It's summer vacation for Dianthe's kids, but she's still hard at work trying to get things going for next school year. You know that field day your kids had where everyone was a winner? That's not gonna happen again on Dianthe's watch. And she's got the best teacher appreciation gift idea ever!

We did an Instagram story with our unpopular opinions a few weeks ago and that made Shanon's head spin. Why is there only 15 seconds for an Instastory? Why do people love some really popular artists? How hygienic can facial hair really be? And birthday candles- step one of a yet to be discovered super-virus that might take us all out. We discuss all of these things and many more in this episode...

We don't want to imply that Dianthe is dramatic, so we'll just say it. Dianthe is dramatic! She's making issues where there really shouldn't be any. Why is she SO stressed about her kids being out of school for the summer? Find out in this episode...

Shanon is kind of a jerk when it comes to music. Ask her. She'll admit it. How does Dianthe manage to set her off in an innocent discussion about the songs of summer 2018? Find out in this episode of Stuff With Shanon.

It's hard being Shanon. First of all she forgot to tell Dianthe to come in and record a new podcast! Secondly she's been struggling with finding a deodorant that still works for her. The one she's used for forever just stopped working all of the sudden. She tried clinical strength stuff and that made her armpits feel like they were on fire. So, she wrote a song about it. Here's that song in pla...

Remember when Shanon told us that she thinks someone is living in her apartment when she's not there? Well, she thinks the person is back and she's got a plan. Plus, do certain things in life drive you crazy to the point that you feel like you're going to explode? Us too. We'll talk about some of those things in this episode of Stuff With Shanon.

Shanon is single...again. She's been OK with it, but after she walked into a closed door in her apartment the other night, she decided that it's maybe time to find her soulmate. Someone to hold ice on her busted lip while she goes back to sleep. Online dating is so popular now. Should she give it a try? Are any of these profile headlines good enough to use? We need your help, Kiddnation.

It's National Teacher Appreciation Week! And Mother's Day is on Sunday. Shanon wants to take the time to read a letter of thanks to all the teachers who inspired her while Dianthe wants to change one big detail about Teacher Appreciation Week.

Dianthe might not have an ounce of DNA in her body. Shanon, on the other hand, has more stuff in her body than she wants. Plus, when is it time to stop telling your kid to "suck it up" and start taking them seriously? Let's discuss.

How do you kill time when you're bored? Maybe you scroll through Facebook or your Instagram feed. Or maybe you've got a favorite time wasting website in your bookmarks? Well, it appears as though Shanon has WAY too much time on her hands and she spends it learning totally useless facts you never knew you needed in your life. Now you've got them. You're welcome!

Shanon is convinced that someone is living in her apartment while she's gone. Like really convinced. Is she crazy or does she make a pretty good case for why she thinks she's got a secret roommate?

Are we born with only so many party hours in our system? Has Dianthe run out of those party hours? She's here for this podcast on the third day of a hangover after the Kellie Rasberry birthday bash of 2018. (Haha Dianthe. You're lame!)

Is it OK to lie to your kid if it means getting out of an all day field trip? Shanon says that it is, but Dianthe is way too honest for that. She'd rather come on the podcast and complain about the commitments of being a mom. Suck it up, buttercup, because your job won't end anytime soon!

They say you can think whatever you want to...just don't share all of those thoughts. Well, apparently Shanon needs someone to pound this idea into her head because she shares some of her recent "not so nice" thoughts in this episode. Do these things make her a horrible person? Decide for yourself.

Have you ever looked back on the stuff you ate as a kid and wondered how you ever put that in your mouth? Dianthe has 3 kids who eat stuff that she would NEVER eat again. Fun Dip anyone? And Shanon might have the palate sophistication of a toddler. We discuss in this episode of SWS.

Oops! Shanon was listening to dirty rap songs on her way to get her car serviced and forgot to disconnect her bluetooth. This led to pure embarrassment. On the up side she's got some awesome new stuff you should add to your workout playlist...at least she does if you have good taste in music (unlike Dianthe).

Tween drama. Nobody wants it or needs it, but it's going to happen, right? Dianthe had some major drama happen during her daughter's birthday sleepover. Sharpie marker + 2 hormonal, tired tween girls that stay awake + 1 hormonal, tired tween girl who fell asleep = drama, hurt feelings, and no sleep for Dianthe. We'll talk about it in this episode of Stuff With Shanon.

Isn't it strange how much a tiny human can change your life? Things go from crazy Friday night house parties to getting the police called on you for something completely innocent. Shanon compares life before nephews to life with nephews in this episode of Stuff With Shanon.

It's Valentine's Day and, for the first time in a long time, Shanon is celebrating it solo. Is she bitter about that? No...not really. She's just full of ideas for Valentine's Day cards that would ruin the relationships of those who do have someone to celebrate with. Honesty isn't always polite, is it?

Dianthe's got her hands full with three kids. Shanon has no kids, but she lives and breathes for her nephews. Dianthe's got news that will give anyone living with a toddler some hope in life. Believe us when we say that we understand if you've lost all hope after a handful of toddler meltdowns.

Shanon realized that she's got a couple of serious obsessions and Dianthe thinks that she might need a legal fund to use in Shanon's defense...

Dianthe has a sick kid at home, so she couldn't come in to record a new podcast. Shanon took matters into her own hands and recorded this one alone! What could she possibly say to fill up air space for an entire podcast? She's got some ideas of stuff you should know about in this episode of Stuff With Shanon.

I was looking at the most played songs on my iTunes the other day and was SHOCKED to see what's on there. It's amazing how different life is when it's just me riding in my car versus the times when I have my 3-year old nephew, Jake, with me.  You can hear the difference for yourself in this little mix of my songs and "my" songs while I'm with a toddler.

Dianthe swore that she would never do most of the things she now does as a parent. How much would you spend on a doll for your kid? Or a Halloween costume? Should you cut the crust off of your kids bread? How much is too much?

Is it possible that Shanon could become President of the PTA at the school Dianthe's kids go to? We're saying there's a chance...

It's 2018! So exciting, right? A new year means the chance for a new you. Or maybe not. Shanon looks back at her resolutions for 2017 and makes a couple for 2018.
