Mom Mode Returns, Eulogies & Trivia - E94

This week’s episode is a bit of a wild card... and we kind of love it that way.

We kick things off with three trivia questions from a recent night out…answers revealed at the end…before diving into a week that reminded us how the empty nest stage isn’t always as “empty” as it sounds.

Clancy shares what it was like to step back into full “Mom Mode” after Teagan’s wisdom teeth surgery…complete with mashed peaches and emergency trash cans. Rick reflects on the emotional weight of writing his Nana’s eulogy, and the challenge of capturing 100 years in just a few minutes.

And then…we end with laughter, family trivia nights, and a sweet surprise in the form of a new relationship we didn’t expect to spark.

This episode captures the heart of empty nest living: moments that pull us back, help us reflect, and remind us how much joy still lives in this stage.
