Let’s Talk About the Rest We Really Need (And Probably Aren’t Getting) In this episode, Tanya and Jen take a much-needed breather and invite you to do the same. We're not just talking about getting more sleep (although yes, please)—we’re diving into the whole wild world of rest : physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and even the kind you need after too much small talk. 😅 From personal confessions about burnout to laugh-out-loud moments about introvert crashes and DMV despair, we’re sharing h...

Welcome to Season 6, Episode 159 of The Superlatively Yes Podcast. Jasa and I have been running in circles this week, but unfortunately, not the same circles. We talk about Junie’s over-the-top birthday celebration (which led Quincy to a new dog sitter,) my time doing some in-state work traveling with Shawn, and then I introduce Jasa to an old favorite childhood beverage of mine: Chocolate Coke. I quickly drove through Jasa’s hometown of Bee Branch, Arkansas, yesterday and couldn’t wait to tell ...

Sweet encouragers, aren’t you so thankful for second chances? Full disclosure; Tanya and I recorded a complete podcast on Tuesday of last week and we trashed it because I forgot how to podcast. Tanya patiently waited for me to calm down for the week and this is what we like to call the “Take Two Podcast”. Excitement dominates from the beginning as Tanya speaks from the joy in her heart over the Razorback victory on Saturday. The whole city cheered and celebrated until the wee hours of the night....

Thank you for joining our conversation today as we kick off season 6 with a trip to Denver, some quick wardrobe changes, and more hilarious "Tails From the Dog Park." Tanya loved her trip to Denver and told all about the details and Jasa filled us in on what we didn't want to know about food. It was a fun reunion and, of course, way too long, per usual. But all in good, clean fun. We love you - thanks for hanging out here! Tanya Superlatively Yes website Superlatively Yes on Patreon Superlativel...

Beloved audience, I have a vacation destination recommendation that gets five out of five stars and Tanya has a precision television recommendation that gets a zero out of five stars. We’re bringing it all to you and we call it as we see it! I’ve been to Dreams Onyx in Punta Cana with the cutest kids in the whole USA and Tanya has been doing “choring bores” because her house continues to try to kill her but she has on a happy face because fall weather is landing in Little Flock. Starbucks says s...

Here is the second ½ of Tanya and me catching up on life as we know it. Tanya gets tickled as I tell of some traumatic events that occurred on the cruise ship. I can’t even reel her in to appreciate that I actually got to see my very first orca in Alaska; no pun intended. We laugh with Leighton and Suz for excitedly buying all of us matching Bippity Boppity Boo t-shirts for Junie’s upcoming 2nd birthday celebration, later realizing that they were actually Alice in Wonderland. Tanya ends the show...

Come on in! Welcome to Episode 153! Tanya gets “voluntold” to watch the new “Twisters" movie with Shawn and gets twisted up in a storm of her own when she and Jen go to see “This Ends with Us”. This creates a (Blake) Lively discussion. Shepherd, the introvert, gives a list of reasons why he couldn’t answer his friend’s phone call, knowing Tanya would understand. I have a fun time talking all about our latest cruise, including the story about our cruise friend. Lily, who always gives us gifts. Th...

Poor, poor Tanya. She re-lives her harrowing days as a covid victim. We are so thankful to see her up and shining brightly behind the mic today. She brings us incredible cute and fun items that she found during her convalescence. I laugh at some of Shep’s funny things he says as he is on laughing gas for his wisdom teeth extraction. We celebrate Burger Week around here and it was a resounding success! Truett and I are counting the days until Lovey goes to Virginia. Stay safe out there people. We...

Well, Hello. I didn’t see you there. So glad you’re here! Tanya and I just thought we didn’t have a lot to talk about today, and then we got started and couldn’t stop. Caitlyn Clark made history this week and is playing at noon, so needless to say, Tanya is in a big hurry to finish up and cheer on her girl. She dreamed about Sam PIttman and shows up in Razorback swag to celebrate only 50 days until Razorback football season. I’m hurrying due to an electrician coming this afternoon to check on so...

It is with great joy and honor that I welcome you to the podcast where Tanya and I catch up with my daughter, Leighton.

Hi Kids! I never say this, but I told Tanya I didn’t have much to say on today’s podcast and she just laughed. I’ve spent more time at home in the last few months than I have the whole time I have been married and it's been nice. We’ve continued our family DIY project of redecorating Shep’s room around our inspiration piece, his banjo, experimented with our instant pot and air fryer and pursued the pawn shops for more great deals. A rousing game of AirSoft brought Shawn back to life after his ne...

Happy International Women’s Day! Honestly, I was low energy when I showed up today and just seeing Tanya’s face cheered me right up. Maybe try to meet with a friend today in person or even on Facetime for a heart lift. The story of the day is Tanya’s first near-death experience of the week, consisting of an electric blanket + a red light. Read your warning labels, people. Next up, is her story of customer service sending positive energy. Shep and I have laughed and laughed about this one and wil...

Thank you for being in our audience today. I am so happy to fill you in on Shepherd’s mock trial competition and Tanya’s affirmation of our cheese ministry straight from scripture. Shawn receives movie star treatment at a Hollywood-esque barbershop event while Suzanne pulls Cliff and me back into Farmer Wants a Wife. You may be as surprised as we are to learn that Picasso passed away in 1973 instead of the 1500s and you also may be surprised at the comeback of the denim skirt. All these surprise...

Welcome playfellows! A new word I learned that describes a network of individuals whom one is acquainted with. I thought it fit perfectly with today’s episode of the Super Yes podcast. Tanya apparently puts in a quarter and I erupt with more information than she expects about Toby Keith, stink bugs, and tallow. We discuss being the perfect houseguest and how to trick someone into taking a nap by using science. Have you noticed that olive oil is having a moment and for goodness sake, have you hea...

Once upon a time, there were two friends who had so much to say to each other, their microphones caught on fire! Well, that didn’t happen today, but it was close. I was with grandbabies in Virginia while Tanya was taking a CPR certification class. The takeaway? My grandbabies have my whole heart and my first aid kit needs an extreme makeover. We joke about how different our lives are, specifically how I like to hurkle durkle and Tanya doesn’t. Tanya simplifies her morning routine and it has chan...

Welcome sweet listeners! I have a special treat on this episode for you! Not only is SHAWN sitting in the co-host chair, but we are also having a special and fun conversation. Jasa is in Virginia with Cliff, Leighton, and the babies, so Shawn was amazing enough to fill in. Listen, practically every time we go out, someone compliments him on his “super smooth voice.” Jordan has said many times that he has a little Elvis in his Southern drawl. I think he is a fabulous co-host. We wanted to honor t...

To our adorable audience. How much have you laughed today? Today is a silly day here at the Super Yes studio. We crack ourselves up as we talk about games played, TV shows watched, and conversations had. We swap stories of our girls' birthday celebrations, our scheduled appointments, and sweet treasures we have stumbled upon. When I say, “we”, I mean Tanya. Twenty-five bucks and a box truck rental and it’s all YOURS! Tanya blows my mind with her market research into new trends and she smiles as ...

Hello to our 2024 audience! It is such a pleasure to join you on life’s journey. I feel like I have been Around the World in 80 Days and it sounds like it because neither Tanya nor I took more than 4 breaths throughout the entire podcast. We are so happy to be back together with each other and all of you. Snow and ice are falling across the US and we exchange snow stories of food, activities, and movies. The winter weather kept Cliff and me in Atlanta overnight, but I share some tips I picked up...
