Slippery Stories, Boybands and Midlife Mayhem

from I SHAKE MY HEAD · host Lisa Gibson & Samantha Sperling

Can you spot a professional "ice walker" in the parking lot simply by the fear in their shuffle? Have you ever narrated your own step-by-step parking lot journey only to realize you’ve become the star of your own nature documentary? What’s the boy band that had you crying at concerts—NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, or are you sticking with New Kids on the Block? Are we all just midlife women secretly regressing to preteen status because we skipped the baby phase? Is late-night water drinking causing you to wake up to a shooting sound from your plastic bottle, or just more trips to pee? Can scalloped potatoes really vibe with meatloaf, or is the TikTok crowd eating their sides all wrong? Are you brave enough to take the Pillsbury roll challenge, or are you worried it’s going to explode in your face?  Have you ever wondered if Mahjong, Candy Crush, or that occasional Wordle streak is boosting your brain power—or simply making you a “dumber” midlifer? Did you stab your way through the headlines, or are you fact-checking Lisa’s questionable news stories? Are sins of the parents really impacting Beatrice and Eugene in the royal circuits? Tune in to “I Shake My Head” for a rollercoaster of hilarious midlife revelations, challenges, and just enough arguing to keep you shaking your head at every amusing moment! New episodes every Friday. Midlife judgments. Zero apologies. Lots of laughs.
