    Eppy 151: It's Just life
    Jan 21 2026


    Blogger friend Beth Ann Chiles from It's Just Life surprised us this week by announcing, "I'm a liar!" A routine medical exam revealed she's actually 5'3½"—not the long-believed 5'4". Welcome to midlife "shrinkage"!Jean shares her joy-filled night at a Cleveland Cavaliers game, complete with a thrilling half-court shot that earned one lucky fan $10,000. We also break down the new slang term "Unc/Unk," discover we're actually part of Generation Jones (not Boomers!), and laugh as Laura attempts to use her 26-year-old Sam's Club card

    Eppy 150: The New has Come
    Jan 7 2026
    Welcome to the very first OK Boomer episode of 2026! 🎉 Jean and Laura ring in the New Year with gratitude, laughter, and a thoughtful look at what it means to embrace "the new" — in life, faith, habits, and perspective. With 2026 marking 250 years of the United States, Jean shares her heartfelt Life Plan for the year ahead, centered on faithful living, trust and obedience, and making room for margins — those sacred spaces where rest, relationships, and Jesus can dwell.

    Along the way, the conversation wanders delightfully through family time with grown sons (powered by Panda Express and Chipotle), goat yoga recommendations, frizzled spinach that mysteriously disappears, crochet adventures, Lake Erie, signature scents, and even life advice from a very wise grandson. It's a cozy, encouraging start to the year — full of grace, humor, and hope. The new has come... and we're ready for it.

    Eppy 149: Shake Your Tail Feathers

    Time to start cooking—and laughing! This week's OK Boomer podcast is a sparkling, feather-fluffing Thanksgiving celebration.

    Jean's soaking up the Florida sun while Laura's still up north, wondering if it's "too weathery" to function. All the family is in on the holiday fun, relaxed and ready to feast.

    We talk birthday math (Laura's a Thanksgiving baby, and somehow that's relevant!), share air fryer pumpkin seeds and "Turkuterie" trays, and dive into Laura's Famous Classic Thanksgiving Trivia. Plus, you'll hear our best ideas for games like Roll Your Yam, Balance Your Candy Corn, and of course—Shake Your Tail Feathers!

    Pull up a chair, grab your pumpkin pie, and join in for the most delightful, cozy, and joy-filled start to the holiday season.Listen now wherever you get your podcasts!

    Eppy 148: Daughter Mountain Heaven
    Nov 5 2025
    The holidays are tip-toeing closer, and everyone swears there's "plenty of time".

    Jean and Laura kick off with gift talk, including the latest hot gadget: the Wi-Fi love lamp that lets loved ones send colorful light signals to say "Hey, I'm awake!" or "I miss you!" or "I pressed the wrong color again."
    Then we tumble headfirst into the viral "six-seven" trend (is this our fault? Did Boomers accidentally start this?)

    We discover that egg plates are suddenly a Gen Z treasure, and defend the honor of the noble China cabinet.Laura faced three days without her phone and ends up on an Apple Store pilgrimage full of forgotten passwords, blinking screens, and the slow unraveling of short-term memory. Is tech making us all forgetful?

    And should we be panicking when the Medicare memory test arrives?

    Eppy 147: Role Model

    Dear listeners, welcome back to OK Boomer! We're always thankful to share our laughter, quirks, and faith with you—and this episode quickly became one of our favorites. Our conversation just flowed, with a few surprise detours into patience, tissues, and yes...fork sizes (spoiler: Laura definitely has a favorite fork).Jean shares her doctor's chamomile tea recommendation for better sleep, but is it worth the nighttime wakeups? Maybe melatonin is the better path. We also talk about our fascination with Oura rings, keeping up with tech trends while still staying true to our Boomer selves.
    We even chatted about Role Model, the singer whose music has captured younger generations—a fun reminder of how culture shifts but good storytelling through song always connects.Most importantly, we reflect on the role models who shaped us and how faith continues to guide our lives. A warm, lighthearted episode sprinkled with humor, heart, and honesty.

And when you're wondering what to cook, the ReciMe app swoops in to rescue your dinner plans.

Tech talk continues with our predictions for electric cars—the Fiat 500 EV may surprise you. We also dive into the latest Apple product launches and what they might mean for both boomers and millennials.

  • Eppy 145: Monday Morning Quarterbacking – Marriage Style

    Eppy 145: Monday Morning Quarterbacking – Marriage Style
    Sep 24 2025
    This week on OK Boomer Podcast, we're swapping football fields for wedding aisles! Laura takes us on a ride through the winding Ohio country roads to Mohican State Park, where her daughter's gorgeous woodland wedding took place. Think rustic chapel, perfect weather, a totally-in-love Bride and Groom, a beautiful wedding party including 5 flower girls, and even the family dogs making an entrance. Of course, no game—or wedding—goes without a few fumbles: Laura forgot to stand for the bride, her dress staged a minor rebellion, and her eyelashes had a mind of their own. But in true "Monday Morning Quarterbacking" style, we laugh about it all and celebrate the joy of the day—especially the campfire s'mores and the next-morning coffee truck we wish would park in our town permanently! Plus, we gear up for football and basketball season (Go Bucks! Go Cavs!) and settle once and for all what's actually legal versus "illegal." Follow us and join the fun!

    Sep 11 2025

    Goodbye summer, hello September! In this episode of OK Boomer, we're packing away the ferry rides to Put-in-Bay and pulling out the fall sweaters (and reminding everyone —it's also a great time to get back to church). Laura shares the joy of a new Baby Dedication in her family, and a heartwarming picture of palm trees whose roots tangle together so they can stand strong in storms.Meanwhile, Jean wrestles with a fitted sheet (thank goodness for YouTube tutorials), and we both discover that Boomers aren't the only ones struggling—there's a hilarious new Gen Z travel hack called "Red Dogging a Flight."And yes, memory lapses are real—so pass the Prevagen and join us for laughter, stories, and a few brainy reminders that we're all in this aging thing together. Tune in, Boomers —you'll forget your worries (but don't forget your name.) And everyone else- pray for us!Follow us and join the fun!
