Weekly Roundup: An Autumn Fall, DWTS, “Champions,” Historical Farts, and Would You Rather?

Parenting Roundabout

On our latest weekly roundup, Terri gives us the low-down on the perfectly pleasant walk that turned into a broken wrist and a bunch of other bumps and bruises--and caused us to skip a week of podcasting for the first time in forever.
What we're watching: We quickly discussed two weeks' worth of Dancing with the Stars: Motown Night (aka Wig Night) and Disney 100 Night (aka a car commercial/people in varying degrees of very literal costumes).
We also watched Champions, starring Woody Harrelson, Kaitlyn Olson, and a delightful cast of actors with intellectual disabilities portraying a team of basketball players. Shout-out to Kevin Iannucci, Madison Tevlin, Joshua Felder, Ashton Gunning, Matthew Von Der Ahe, James Day Keith, Tom Sinclair, Alex Hintz, Casey Metcalfe, and Bradley Edens. We loved watching them and hope this leads to many more roles for them.
​
Catherine's library find owes a lot to potty humor. We've got The Big Bang and Other Farts: A Blast from the Past by Daisy Bird, along with No One Likes a Fart by Zoe Foster Blake and Butt or Face? by Kari Lavelle.
In the archives, we revisit episodes in which we discussed gifts for moms of teens and young adults (October 26, 2020), parenting "Would You Rather?" questions (October 28, 2019), and awards beyond "valedictorian" (October 23, 2017).
​
Next week, our TV watch will cover "Most Memorable Year" on Dancing with the Stars, and we'll return to The Gilded Age: Season 2 debuts October 29. Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available! ​
