No Underwear, No Marvin, and No Self-Swabbing

from Sidetracked · host Sidetracked

Cynthia is fresh off a trip to Focus on the Family—where she “focused” on everything except packing the essentials. Meanwhile, Heather gets mildly hit on at the body shop while climbing into their totaled car in cheetah pants. From there we veer straight into the chaos of Dallas mom-life: engagement parties, teens abusing calorie-counting apps, the madness of Junior Symphony Ball ticket day, and a breaking-news conversation about the new (and horrifying) trend of DIY swabbing kits. It’s another Sidetracked that’s equal parts ridiculous, relatable, and completely unhelpful in all the best ways.Plus—we’re announcing a live Zoom event on January 27 at 7:30 PM CT for those who preorder Cynthia’s new book, How’d I Miss That? If you haven’t ordered yet, this is the perfect time to jump in, support Cynthia, and to chat live with both of us! **Fill out this form to join us on January 27thBecome 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:   Order your Must Be Nice hat here before they are sold out!
