Apparently GenX Women are "Queenagers" now. Oh HELL, no. This week on the podcast we take a crowbar to the label and everything behind it: corporate age discrimination, tokenism vs diversity, Hollywood's woman issue & how they are dealing with it, and the media's habit of "discovering" women over 50 who've been here the whole time. Plus meet our (not-so) new guest co-host who you will be hearing a lot more from. For the love of Pat Benatar, don't even think of skipping this one.

Since we last saw you, a lot has happened: AARP published us in their magazine. Everyone listened to our drunk episode (ouch). Court and Chris's kids went off to college. Lori mastered the lazy river. And Eve broke some plates (creatively, of course).

Oh - we also have a brand new merch store you’re gonna go nuts over (yes, seriously).

So what could possibly follow all that in our first episode back? 80s trivia, with questions from Lori and our Facebook group. Duh.

Get your "ding" ready, 'cause season eight starts right now. Brace yourself.

The crew is all here for a completely unscripted, barely coherent, deeply sincere Season 7 wrap-up. And yes, we're getting drunk. (Well, maybe not all of us.) Expect the usual but even better: meandering tangents, unsolicited hot takes, deeply felt assertions on stuffed animals and confessions about drunk scooting. Oh, and potential equipment damage. Pour yourself something tasty & press play. You know how this goes.
