Summary

What happens when you start off talking about bad TV and end up unpacking the moment you left your PhD program to raise your sisters after your mom died? In this episode, Stacy and Daynah take the scenic route—from media criticism to the motherhood nobody plans for, plus body politics, feminist memes, and why gratitude (ugh, fine) actually works. There’s a dog named Manly, a shoutout to a very meaningful pile of office poop, and a whole lot of “this should be a book” energy. It’s cozy chaos meets big clarity—just the way we like it. 0:00 | Homework, Hustle & What Sirens Didn’t Deliver 8:30 | The Scene That Hit Too Hard 10:00 | Losing the Life You Had for the Life That Needed You 18:00 | The Dog That Changed Everything 24:30 | What 'Hacks' Gets Right (and What It Misses) 35:00 | Cultural Criticism as Feminist Practice 50:00 | On Seasons, Survival, and Letting Things Be Simple 54:00 | Gratitude as Grounding: A Morning Practice That Stuck 58:00 | The Magic (Yes, That One) Find Stacy: ⁠⁠⁠⁠realeverything.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠instagram.com/realstacytoth⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠missionmakersart.com⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

0:00.0	Okay. Any other housekeeping?
0:11.8	No, my house is kept. Good.
0:14.0	Before we talk about fun stuff, I do want to point out that unlike college, one of us completed their homework and the other
0:22.3	did not.
0:23.2	And it is very different than who completed their homework and who did not when we went to college
0:28.9	together.
0:29.8	So raise your hand, listeners cannot see, but raise your hand if you finished all of your
0:34.7	homework.
0:35.5	It did.
0:36.5	Dana, I don't see your hand raised.
0:39.1	My hand isn't raised. I'm going to be honest. It wasn't a willful not doing my homework. I did not
0:45.0	understand that the deadlines were as strict as they are. I thought we were loosely defining topics,
0:51.0	not we were going to be held to a strict schedule. But now that I understand the way this
0:55.1	works, any opportunity to point out that I've done something when I'm supposed to and you
1:00.1	haven't, I'm going to lean all the way in. Again, it wasn't clear to me that that was a mandate,
1:05.5	but now I understand. The podcast mandate for you to read the assigned homework, okay? I do think you'll enjoy it. I do
1:14.7	think it. Yeah, I think it looks, well, first of all, it looks very relevant to my life. And I have the book.
1:23.7	But I also, so I'm learning a new space as a, as a, as a worker. And so a lot of
