from MenOpod: all things fifty + · host MenOpod

Welcome to the gloriously chaotic MenOpod Simcha Special, where weddings, bar mitzvahs, and low-budget hotel toilet paper collide. This week, Eliana and Leora recap a weekend of joy, dancing, eating, schlepping, and the kind of physical pain that only comes from wearing sparkly heels after age 50.Eliana’s ass is on fire (thank you, Angel Soft a.k.a. Devil’s Sandpaper), Leora’s pearls get murdered in the dryer, everyone gets wedding tattoos, someone asks for the secret to a long marriage (spoiler- it’s being too lazy to get divorced), and a listener wonders if calling your mom “Mommy” is weird (it’s not—step off).Plus: Barzinkans, bad water pressure, family-style food rage, penis-shaped pillows, and wedding vows so sweet they could induce actual nausea.It’s a simcha, a schlep, and a shit show—just how we like it.👉 Follow ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@MenOpodPodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for more midlife madness, menopause hacks and behind-the-scenes shenanigans🎧 Subscribe wherever you listen so you never miss the mess
