2025-10-2245 minCan You Say MamaQuarantine HouseThis week on Can You Say Mama, the inevitable happened — both of our households finally got taken down by the relentless hand, foot, and mouth virus. So, while we’re covered in calamine and clinging to our sanity, Sacha’s husband Sheldon steps in as guest co-host to keep the show rolling.
We kick things off with the viral Coldplay concert cheating scandal that has everyone on the internet picking sides. Was it a setup, was it shady, or was it just plain messy? Then we dive into what real life looks like these days as parents of two...
2025-07-2355 minCan You Say MamaBrain Tech, Shaving & Nesting PartiesOn this episode of Can You Say Mama, we dream about how amazing, and also completely terrifying it would be to have a little device in your brain to record all those endless to-do lists before they disappear into the void.
We also chat about an ex-Bachelor contestant who hasn’t shaved her legs in 7 years to show her daughters you don’t have to conform to beauty norms (and how we feel about that level of commitment).
Plus, we’re officially on board with ditching traditional baby showers in favor of cozy, helpful “nesting parties.”...
2025-07-1652 minCan You Say MamaBedtime Negotiations, Podcasts & Poop CruisesThis week on Can You Say Mama, we confess how thoroughly our toddlers have outsmarted us, especially when it comes to stalling at bedtime and sweet talking their way into whatever they want. (Seriously, who’s actually in charge here?)
We also get a little existential about podcasts themselves... isn’t it weird that people just… talk into microphones and others choose to listen?
And Cassie is gearing up for a cruise, but decided to watch Poop Cruise on Netflix beforehand. Was that a good idea or the ultimate nightmare fuel? Grab your headphones and join us...
2025-07-091h 00Can You Say MamaTime Warps, Re-marrying & Public ShamingThis week on Can You Say Mama, we’re spiraling over how our girls are turning THREE - like, how?! We’ve officially lost all concept of time and are not okay.
Then Sacha brings a deep one to the table: an Instagram account sparked a convo about whether you could (or should) re-marry if your spouse is still alive but no longer cognitively present. It’s complicated, emotional, and we’ve got thoughts.
And finally, we’re weighing in on the never-ending debate: Is it okay to change your kid in public spaces? What’s practical...
2025-07-0258 minCan You Say MamaPotty Training, Self Care & Intrusive ThoughtsThis week on Can You Say Mama, Sacha shares the messy, funny, and frustrating journey of potty training Gray, because nothing humbles you faster than a toddler refusing to poop on the potty.
We also get real about the ongoing challenge of finding time for self-care and date nights. How do you prioritize yourself or your relationship when you’re constantly in survival mode? Spoiler: we’re still figuring it out.
And we open up about something that doesn’t get talked about enough: mom irrational and intrusive thoughts. From the random “what ifs” to the mental...
2025-06-1849 minCan You Say MamaDIYs, Garage Sales, and Opting OutOn this episode of Can You Say Mama, Sacha shares how she’s been keeping Sheldon on his toes with endless house projects—because why hire out when you have a perfectly capable husband with a toolbelt and no escape plan?
We also dive into the chaos of hosting a garage sale, including the struggle of trying to declutter while resisting the urge to buy stuff from every other sale in the neighborhood. (We’re just trying to break even, okay?)
And then, we get into a thought-provoking convo: Should men be able to opt out of...
2025-06-1154 minCan You Say MamaUse Em' or Lose Em'In this episode of Can You Say Mama, we’re back down the SkinnyTok rabbit hole—and it’s getting even more toxic. We’re talking about how these videos mess with our own heads and why we’re now extra aware of how we talk about food around our kids. Spoiler: it’s complicated.
Then we’re getting fired up about the cost of groceries—because why is cereal basically a luxury item now?! Seriously, it’s giving gold bar energy.
And finally, can we all agree we’re over the points app madness? Between grocery stor...
2025-06-0447 minCan You Say MamaSkinnytok Drama, Recipe Thieves & Parenting is PRThis week on Can You Say Mama, the algorithm did its thing and now we’re deep in the world of Skinnytok drama—think: toxic body talk, rebranded disordered eating, and why it’s somehow always in our feed.
We’re also spilling the tea on the wild world of recipe plagiarism—because apparently, some people think copying an Instagram recipe word-for-word and slapping their name on it is a “creative twist.”
And finally, let’s talk about how parenting is basically rebranding and marketing—from selling broccoli as “tiny trees” to rebranding bedtime as a “sleepover with your...

2025-05-071h 00Can You Say MamaBaby Sleep, ChatGPT Chaos & Sperm Race Bets?!This episode of Can You Say Mama is a wild mix — just like our sleep schedules. We’re diving into baby sleep and whether we’re brave enough to sleep train our second babies (spoiler: it’s not going well). Are we getting more rest this time around? Definitely not.
Then we shift gears and talk AI & ChatGP. How it's become a helpful tool for busy moms (hello, meal planning and grocery lists!), but also how it’s surprisingly bad for the environment. Yup, your please and thank you has a carbon footprint.

Then we get into the real talk about pelvic floor physiotherapy— why Sacha went, what no one told us about it, and how it can change everything from sneezing to squats.
And for some laughs, we’re playing a spicy round of FMK (F*ck, Marry, Kill): Baby Gear/Stages Edition. Think: newborn sleep deprivation, the endless snacks, and the love-hate relationship with the toddler stage.

Then we’re diving into the wild world of OnlyFans, including the viral creator reportedly making $2.1 million a month by sleeping with 1,000 people a day (wait, what?). We’re asking the real question: Would yo...
2025-04-0957 minCan You Say MamaSocial Media, Angry Toddlers & Potty TrainingThis week on Can You Say Mama, we’re taking you on a ride through our favorite random social media finds—like the surprisingly controversial debate over how often people wash their Stanley cups (spoiler: some of us need to do better), the weirdest food concoctions we’ve seen (and judged), and the so-called mom “hacks” that are honestly not worth the effort.
We’re also sharing the latest in our toddler drama: why our toddlers got mad at us this week (because apparently, we’re monsters for choosing the wrong cup), and whether we’re actually ready to dive in...
2025-04-0252 minCan You Say MamaFight, Flight, Freeze or ScrollOn this episode of Can You Say Mama -Nap time: the sacred window where you’re supposed to get everything done… but sometimes, the overwhelm is so real that you just sit there, frozen, scrolling your phone instead. We’re talking about the pressure to be productive vs. the need to just breathe.
Then, let’s get into kids’ TV shows—because if Cocomelon is on, we know our kids’ brains are melting just a little. Are these shows actually helping, or are they turning our toddlers into overstimulated zombies? We’ve got thoughts.
And finally, what wo...

2025-03-1258 minCan You Say MamaEveryone Is Sick, Laundry Pile-Ups & Reality TVEver tried solo parenting while sick? It’s basically an extreme sport. In this episode of Can You Say Mama, we’re talking about the struggle of taking care of little ones when you can barely take care of yourself. Plus, let’s be real—does laundry ever actually end? Spoiler: No. We’re diving into the never-ending battle of laundry piles - please send help!
