This week, the moms are covering everything from paper calendars to plane etiquette! Melissa admits she is still loyal to a good old-fashioned physical calendar, proving some habits really are a generational thing.

After Jill shares that she's had three appliances break in what feels like no time, the conversation turns into a nostalgic debate about whether anything is made to last anymore—from household appliances to the quality of clothes. That naturally leads to the struggle of shopping for swimsuits these days, with Jill searching for one that doesn't leave her boobs "down and out," while Kelly swears by tummy control and reveals why she's no longer interested in plastic surgery after hearing her kids insist that small boobs are in.

The summer vacation talk continues with packing, travel outfits and one very important question: do you chat with the person sitting next to you on a flight? Kelly would rather keep to herself, while Melissa is more than happy to break the ice by showing off photos of her dogs.

Plus, the moms also reflect on how much reality TV has changed since their Dance Moms days, discussing both the good and the bad of today's reality television.

Summer may be on the calendar, but someone forgot to tell the weather in Pittsburgh! This week, Jill, Melissa, and Kelly catch up on everything from gloomy skies to summer travel plans—and plenty in between.

Melissa shares why she's obsessed with her new Oura Ring and all the health insights it's been giving her, while the moms have a conversation about how stress and trauma can affect your health, inspired by Christina Applegate's new book. Kelly also gives an update on her ongoing battle with her sleep apnea mask, and let's just say...it's not exactly helping her get more sleep.

Jill recaps her Father's Day trip to a farm with the family—including the "divas" she raised, who managed to show up in Chanel. Father's Day has the moms reflecting on the family traditions they still cherish. They also swap their best summer travel tips and explain why they've officially become carry-on-only travelers.

To wrap things up, Melissa answers a question Dance Moms fans have been asking: after she and the girls left the show, did they ever return to ALDC? She's setting the record straight.

Kelly's home saga continues as her newly repaired ceiling leaks yet again, leaving her still without a kitchen. Meanwhile, Jill is recording through a hot spot after losing power, proving that the show must go on! The moms catch up on everything from Kelly's first experience with cupping therapy to Melissa's Invisalign journey, and share why they believe it's never too late to invest in yourself and make positive changes.

They also chat about Kelly's ongoing house hunt, Melissa's much-debated "conversation couches" that her husband has never been a fan of, and how all three of them somehow stay incredibly busy despite not having traditional jobs. Plus, a listener shares a heartwarming story about meeting Paige, sparking a conversation about why the Dance Moms kids have always stayed grounded and humble despite growing up in the spotlight.

And of course, the moms celebrate their Pittsburgh roots, sharing how no matter where they travel—even overseas—someone always seems to have a connection to Pittsburgh or the Steelers.
