Description

Kelly's unsettled about a baby name, excited to get her kindergarten teacher vibe going, and Lizz agrees—second baby safety is another level of stress. Get ready for a little less sister sass on this dump-filled episode of the Carpool. 

→ Join your Carpool friends at the Car Mom Auto Show this July 20th in St. Louis! Tickets are now available. 

Lizz has a Gen Alpha (those born 2013 and after) update including the chokehold Taylor Swift has on the younger Gens, the Takis you want to be seen carrying, how Lululemon and Stanley are still cool, and social media of the future—YouTube shorts.

In driveway dumps, Kelly and Lizz breakdown how they feel about being called 'Mrs.' and ask YOU to SOUND OFF in the Facebook group: do you like first names or Mrs. and Mrs.? And how do you feel about Aunts and Uncles who aren't related to you? Kelly is living the two story house life and discovering the life changing magic of micro-cleaning. As you deep clean, notice what consumables you've got laying around so you can stop saving and start using up, too. Why *not* elevate a Tuesday with eye masks? Kelly and Lizz are both in the market for body lotion. Send in your recommendations for the one that will give them a daily spa experience and smell like wealth.

A listener writes about her Aunt she used to be very close with who now doesn't respect boundaries with her kids. Kelly's advice? Find your inner mama bear and be firm with your boundaries, your kids matter more than anything. 

Lizz is ditching the drive-through with a corn and black bean salsa: canned corn, canned black beans, red onion, cilantro, jalapeno, lime juice, cumin and olive oil.

Danielle's dinner auction menu offers a bit of inspiration for the week, too, including: homemade focaccia bread, Katie's pizza dupe, Italian beef and potatoes, better than crumble Reese's peanut butter cookies, grilled chicken with pepperoncinis, garlic butter, Barb's famous carrot cake, Red Lobster cheddar biscuits, fettuccine alfredo with shrimp and broccoli, sweet and savory bacon wrap, puff pastry twists, salad with arugula, apple shallots, basil pecans and honey mustard dressing, pork tenderloin, and exquisite drink pairings.
