Midlife Cardio, Punch the Monkey and a Menopause Box

from Sidetracked · host Sidetracked

Heather has a new hobby—hip-hop dance fitness—which leads to a very real conversation about midlife exercise choices, ranging from dancing to water aerobics to the stroller workouts moms used to do at the mall. That, of course, opens the door to a shocking revelation that some totally off-the-rails mothers used to take strollers on escalators (i.e., Cynthia).There’s also a discussion about a child who snort-laughed gum into his nose, running shoes that started foaming mid-practice, and a man who apparently inhaled a tiny toy traffic cone.They also break down new teenage slang, debate the strange corners of internet fame (including monkeys and squirrel puppets with millions of followers), and share why the world might be ready for a menopause subscription box that actually contains useful things (trade the lip plumper for tweezers and possibly an emergency adult diaper).Add in goose outfits, Graceland, ribbon shopping in Memphis, and a TSA agent gently reminding Cynthia to zip her pants in the airport security line, and this episode is 100% Sidetracked.Become a Supertracker: sign up here Connect with Us:  Website:  Sidetracked Instagram:  CynthiaHeather (@thesidetrackedshow) YouTube: sidetracked with cynthia & heather Ask Me Anything - Sidetracked Heather MacFadyen (@dontmomalone) Cynthia Wilkinson Yanof (@cynthiayanof) Links Mentioned:   Amazon Storefront–all our faves in one place!
