This week, Congresswoman Hillary Scholten joins Momarchy to talk motherhood, politics, and the realities of raising kids in America. From skyrocketing childcare and healthcare costs to Michigan's innovative Tri-Share program, Rep. Scholten breaks down what Washington can do to better support working families. We will hear why she called out infamous streamer Hasan Piker, what Democrats are missing about Midwest voters, and what it's really like raising two teenage boys while serving in Congress. Sarah and Tanya also talk midterm elections, the Girls and Glee revivals, and everything in between.

This week, Sarah and Tanya are getting into the spooky season with a very special guest: Colorado Governor Jared Polis. They kick things off with daycare drama, the invisible mental load of childcare, how the Skylight Calendar changed their lives, and their take on the Alix Earle documentary. Then the Governor joins for rapid fire, covering Scrabble, League of Legends with his husband Marlon, and rock tumbling, followed by a tour of Colorado's haunted history: the Governor's Mansion's playful ghost, the Stanley Hotel, Cheesman Park, and what's really under DIA. In Pardon My Politics, he explains why he commuted Tina Peters' sentence, whether the President can learn to disagree better, and why he's more worried about "socialism on the right." In Make It Make Sense, they dig into free full-day kindergarten, universal preschool, paid family leave, free youth therapy, and his social media bill veto. Finally, they wrap up with his last months in office, his legacy, his advice for the next governor, and a push to get out and vote on November 3.

This week, Tanya and Sarah are going back to yesteryear. They kick things off with the cuteness of toddlers, the eternal struggle of the ponytail (and the solutions that actually work), and all things pop culture, from Instagram to the latest TV shows. Then, in a special Momarchy book club segment, they dive into Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke and unpack the book's exploration of tradwives, politics, raising kids in the age of social media, and homeschooling. They also dig into the federal Child Care and Development Fund and what's included in the draft. Finally, they wrap things up with Ask a Millennial Mom: Is there anything from the 1800s you'd bring into your modern life to make it better?
