Kelly is sick to her stomach — and it's not the 20-week baby scan that has her tummy in a twist. The Car Mom Auto Show is coming up this Sunday, and the gals are ready, rain or shine. Bring your umbrella and get ready to check out the Honda Odyssey that even the NY Auto Show couldn't snag. 'Busted' makes an appearance as the millennial word of the day.

Two very married gals are here today, bringing you SEASON 2 of the Carpool Podcast! They just keep climbing the charts — oops — so this episode kicks off with a little re-introduction.

The newlywed St. Johns are in the house for the season finale of the Carpool podcast. Of course, a wedding recap is on the agenda.

Can the whole Stumpe family still fit in the three-bedroom house? And, of course, is the Expedition here to stay? This week’s millennial word of the day is a Gen Z app trend called ‘Be Real.’ This French, spur-of-the-moment social media app is all the rage in the Gen Z crowd, but Kelly and Lizz are just not ready for thi...
