Parton and the Pickle | Mom Game
Last 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!

Olympic Reflections, Bones, Stains, & Diddy | Mom Game
The 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!

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!

Baby Mama and Grandma Drama | Mom Game
The 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!
