Weekly Roundup: “Deadly Biters,” Movie Games, and Mom Confessions
25 LUG 2024 · Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.
Catherine's library find is another scary nonfiction series for children: https://www.garethstevens.com/series/Deadly-Biters (including Grizzly Bears Bite!, Piranhas Bite!, Hippos Bite!, and more). Mentioned: The similar series https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/archives/08-2023.
Terri's random recommendation is a set of games that test your knowledge of movies, actors, fun facts, and the way they all intersect: https://www.vulture.com/article/daily-movie-grid-trivia-game-cinematrix.html, https://moviegrid.io/, and https://moviepyramid.io/. Mentioned: The https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/this-had-oscar-buzz/id1397188193 podcast.
In the archives, we found that four years after our original discussion, we could come up with a few more https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/mom-confessions.
Next week's lineup:
- A Gentleman in Moscow E4, "Good Times," on Tuesday, July 30
- Lost S1 E4, "Walkabout," on Wednesday, July 31
- Weekly roundup on Thursday, August 1
Until then (and anytime you're in need), the https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog are available.
Parenting Tips from “Lost” S1 E3, “Tabula Rasa”
24 LUG 2024 · Each Wednesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. This episode, "Tabula Rasa," focused on flashbacks to Kate's back story, so we learned more about how she was pursued all the way to Australia by a U.S. Marshal (if not exactly why she was in his sights). We also saw a real parenting win when Locke recovered Walt's dog, but let Michael be the hero who reunited the two.
Next Wednesday, we'll discuss season 1, episode 4, "Walkabout." We'll be back tomorrow with a roundup of some of our favorite segments, like a library find and a visit to our archives.
Parenting Tips from “A Gentleman in Moscow” E3, “The Last Rostov”
23 LUG 2024 · On Tuesdays, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property. Currently, that's https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8230448/, a limited series on Paramount+. In episode 3, "The Last Rostov," the Count's reckoning with all the changes in his world brings him to the brink, but a kindly beekeeper rescues him. He also deepens his relationships with Anna (the actress) and Osip (the official who supervises his captivity). Plus. Nina's back—as a teen know-it-all. We can relate.
Next Tuesday, we'll discuss the fourth episode of the series, "Good Times." We'll be back tomorrow with a discussion of our other current TV watch/rewatch, Lost.
Weekly Roundup: “Glassworks,” HARDY’s “Quit!!”, and Refusing to Simplify
18 LUG 2024 · Here's what's on our minds (and playlists) this week:
Catherine's library find is a book she judged by its cover. https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/glassworks-9781635578782/'s art and blurbs appealed enough for Catherine to give this debut novel by Olivia Wolfgang-Smith a try (it also happens to be on the Staff Picks table at her library right now, chosen by another staff member). It's a creative, but uneven, tale of four generations trying, and often failing, to connect with and support one another.
Terri's random recommendation is the latest album (collection of songs?) from HARDY, titled "https://music.apple.com/us/album/quit/1745010735" She's enjoying the artist's transition from country music to F-bomb-laden hard rock.
In the archives, we revisit a rant from four years ago: https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/simply-refusing-to-simplify, about the (many) issues we have with listicle-format advice on minimalism.
Next week's lineup:
- A Gentleman in Moscow E3, "The Last Rostov," on Tuesday, July 23
- Lost S1 E3, "Tabula Rasa," on Wednesday, July 24
- Weekly roundup on Thursday, July 25
Until then (and anytime you're in need), the https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog are available.
Parenting Tips from “Lost” S1 E2, “Pilot Part 2”
17 LUG 2024 · Each Wednesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. Happily for Catherine, the second part of the pilot was much less migraine-inducing than the first part. The castaways are likely not as happy, as they are dealing with mysterious monsters, mysterious fellow passengers, and mysterious raw fish dishes. As for parenting, we're giving Michael a pass for now, but he's going to need to step up his game.
Next Wednesday, we'll discuss season 1, episode 3, "Tabula Rasa." We'll be back tomorrow with a roundup of some of our favorite segments from our recent Weekly Roundup format.
Parenting Tips from “A Gentleman in Moscow” E2, “An Invitation”
16 LUG 2024 · On Tuesdays, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property. Currently, that's https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8230448/, a limited series on Paramount+. "An Invitation," the second episode of eight, did in fact bring a couple of invitations (some threatening, some not), along with a secret expansion of the Count's living quarters and--sadly—the departure of his young friend, Nina.
Next Tuesday, we'll discuss the third episode of the series, "The Last Rostov." We'll be back tomorrow with a discussion of our other current TV watch/rewatch, Lost.
Weekly Roundup: “Animalphabet,” Too Old for Cool on Substack, and Picking Your Battles
11 LUG 2024 · Each Thursday, join us for a weekly roundup that's an update on our most recent podcast format. We'll bring you a library find, an update from Terri on life or pop culture or whatever's on her mind, and a pick from our archives.
Catherine's library find this week is a lushly illustrated children's picture book called https://www.amazon.com/Animalphabet-Julia-Donaldson/dp/0525554157 by Julia Donaldson, with art by Sharon King-Chai, because there's always room for another animal alphabet book (especially when it's this beautiful). Mentioned: Some of Donaldson's other titles, https://roomonthebroom.com/, https://www.gruffalo.com/books/gruffalo-bookshttps://www.gruffalo.com/books/gruffalo-books (all illustrated by Axel Scheffler).
Terri's random recommendation is the exciting news that she has started a Substack newsletter! Find out more and subscribe: https://toooldforcool.substack.com/. It's free (although you're welcome to pay her if you'd like).
In the archives, we revisit a classic from two years ago: https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/choosing-your-parenting-battles.
Next week's lineup:
- A Gentleman in Moscow E2, "An Invitation," on Tuesday, July 16
- Lost S1 E2, "Pilot Part 2," on Wednesday, July 17
- Weekly roundup on Thursday, July 18
Until then (and anytime you're in need), the https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog are available.
Parenting Tips from “Lost” S1 E1, “Pilot Part 1”
10 LUG 2024 · Each Wednesday, we discuss an older entertainment property--something one or both of us has watched and wants to revisit, or something we missed the first time around. We're kicking it off with Lost, which premiered almost 20 years ago. Terri enjoyed it, in all its convoluted weirdness. Catherine hasn't seen it before, but is willing to risk migraines to find out more.
Next Wednesday, we'll discuss season 1, episode 2, "Pilot Part 2." We'll be back tomorrow with a roundup of some of our favorite segments from our recent Weekly Roundup format.
Parenting Tips from “A Gentleman in Moscow” E1, “A Master of Circumstance”
9 LUG 2024 · Welcome to a new and improved Parenting Roundabout podcast! About a year after https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/weekly-roundup-new-format-dorm-decor-the-afterparty-brothers-sisters-baby-lit-and-the-same-old-same-old, we're switching things up again. As parents and parenting writers, we can’t help but see everything through a parenting lens. But as our kids have become adults, we find ourselves more interested in getting caught up on movies and streaming than on going over the same parenting topics over and over.
So since we’re pretty sure we can find parenting wisdom anywhere, we’re going to talk about what we’re watching, what we thought about it, and maybe what we can learn from it, if only what not to do.
On Tuesdays, we’ll share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property. We’re kicking it off with https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8230448/, a limited series on Paramount+ that premiered at the end of March. It's based, pretty faithfully so far, on a 2016 book of the same name by Amor Towles, which Catherine loved but Terri has not read. And it stars Ewan McGregor, who is fully inhabiting the titular gentleman. He's not a parent, but he's destined to take on a paternal role as the series continues. Mentioned: An episode of the https://godsplaining.org/literature-and-amor-towles-fr-jacob-bertrand-janczyk-fr-patrick-briscoe/ on the novel.
Next Tuesday, we'll discuss the second episode of the series, "An Invitation." We'll be back tomorrow with a discussion of an older property. We're kicking it off with Lost, which premiered almost 20 years ago. And on Thursday, we'll bring you a roundup with some of our favorite segments from our recent Weekly Roundup format.
Weekly Roundup: Tech Support, “The Talented Mr. Ripley,” “Remarkably Bright Creatures,” and the Work-Life Seesaw
2 LUG 2024 · On our latest weekly roundup, Catherine needed some tech support, and Terri needed to spend a lot of time following the latest Taylor-Travis news. Mentioned: The https://x.com/i/communities/1792419038603120858.
What we're watching: After watching the Ripley TV series, we decided to visit/revisit the 1999 movie, The Talented Mr. Ripley. Tom and co. are younger, in color, and more focused on music than visual art (no detours to the Italian Renaissance) in this version, but there's no cat! Mentioned: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0054189/, a French movie adaptation of the story.
Catherine's library find this week is a first novel that's gotten https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/30/books/remarkably-bright-creatures-shelby-van-pelt.html since it was published in 2022: https://shelbyvanpelt.com/books/remarkably-bright-creatures/ by Shelby Van Pelt. It's a charming story with two unlikely leads: A 70-year-old cleaning woman and a giant Pacific octopus named Marcellus.
In the archives, we revisit episodes in which we discussed a https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/a-new-member-of-the-family (July 3, 2023), the https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/the-work-life-seesaw (July 1, 2020), and https://www.parentingroundaboutpodcast.com/blog/fake-life-deadlines (July 3, 2019). Disclaimer: Terri is not a Medicare expert. Go to https://www.ssa.gov/medicare/sign-up/part-b-only for official Part B info.
Next week, we will be debuting a new format. As our kids have become adults, we find ourselves more interested in getting caught up on movies and streaming than in going over the same parenting topics over and over. So we’re going to talk about what we’re watching, what we thought about it, and maybe what parenting advice we can take from it, if only what not to do.
We'll check out an older TV show or movie and a newer one each week, starting with https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0411008/ as our oldie (S1 E1, "Pilot: Part 1") and https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8230448/ as our newcomer (S1 E1, "A Master of Circumstance"). Follow along!
Join parenting writers Terri Mauro and Catherine Holecko for a weekly look at the things parents are talking about, complaining about, and obsessing about right now.
