Season 1 finale! 🎉

Robyn closes out the first season of Schall We Talk with a full chaos-and-heart episode. First up, it is game time: The Newlywed Game style showdown between Mama & Papa Schall vs Robyn & Dr. Piano Man. Who knows their partner better? Who secretly hates laundry more? And who is trying to win a trip to Mallorca?

After the game, Robyn sits down and walks through the 2025 Goals List and everything this wild year held: getting an ice cream flavor named after her, raising over $30k for Ronald McDonald House, boxing ring announcing, kissing under a waterfall in Japan, doing stand up in Spanish in Madrid, cheering at Stanford, getting the key to the city, visiting the Wicked set at Kelly Clarkson, popping up on Law & Order, and of course… getting engaged and planning a wedding in Mallorca.

She also looks ahead to Season 2, talks about what is coming while the show is on break, and reminds you where to hang out with her in the meantime: tour dates, Patreon, New Year’s Eve live, and more.

Season 2 of Schall We Talk returns January 15. 💗

Come into the “kitchen” (using that term very loosely) for a chaotic holiday treats episode of Schall We Talk

I attempt to decorate three “festive” cupcakes – Santa, Hanukkah, and a reindeer – while answering your holiday advice questions, including:

• How do you politely stop in-laws from buying you useless gift cards?
• Is it okay to skip family holidays and just binge reality TV and eat cake?
• How do you get through the first Hanukkah/New Year’s after losing a parent?
• Are you allowed to hook up at your partner’s parents’ house over the holidays?

Then we switch gears and talk about one of my favorite things all year: the Ronald McDonald House livestream auction.

You’ll meet:

John – the kid who:

• Won the bucket hat… and then gifted it to Michelle
• Won a date with Security and won an opportunity to be a guest on Schall We Talk

Michelle – One of the recognizable names of the auction the last two years

• Last year: going through breast cancer treatment, calling in for the soccer jersey, and everyone piling on “Team Michelle” to make sure she got it

We wrap with some family gratitude, New Year’s Eve livestream talk, and Mama Schall’s producer shout-outs.

I hope this episode gives you the giggles and gets you in the holiday spirit.

Happy Thanksgiving, KIDS!

In this episode of Schall We Talk, Robyn kicks off the holiday by sharing what she’s truly grateful for this year: Security (yes, really), the kids, her parents, CIA, and of course, Dr. Piano Man. She also recaps her whirlwind California week:

• Getting the key to the city of Plymouth
• Cheerleading with Stanford University at their big game
• The surprise turnout of KIDS who drove hours just to be there

Then we go full Thanksgiving chaos:

• Robyn and Security read “I’m thankful for…” submissions from the KIDS… except Robyn secretly asked everyone to send in fake, unhinged ones to prank him.
• Security brings back his Mediocre News Anchor segment with Thanksgiving-themed stories:
  • Oreo’s bizarre Thanksgiving cookie collection
  • A real-life “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” turkey trot warning
  • Jell-O’s strange holiday molds
• Robyn and Security play a Thanksgiving Q&A game about traditions, favorite memories, and how Robyn and Dr. Piano Man now celebrate with reality TV, Chinese food, and cake straight out of the pan with a fork.

Plus, Mama Schall calls in for a health update on Papa Schall, shares what she’s grateful for, and gives the official Patreon Producer shout-outs.

Whether you’re celebrating Thanksgiving, half-listening while cooking, or watching from another country where this is just a random Thursday, you’re part of this family and we’re so thankful you’re here. ❤️

Robyn sits down with her lifelong friend and Broadway powerhouse Marissa Rosen to talk about growing up together on Long Island, chasing big theater dreams, and what it actually feels like to make your Broadway debut. Marissa shares how she landed “For the Girls” with Kristin Chenoweth, the very un-glamorous story behind her onstage concussion in Water for Elephants, and what it’s like to be the “character type” in an industry obsessed with leading ladies. They reminisce about middle school elections, bad wigs, and high school musicals, then wrap things up with a chaotic musical-humming game and a sweet (and slightly unhinged) drop-in from Mama Schall.

In this episode:

Robyn explains why this is actually episode 11, not 10, and what happened to the “lost” triathlon episode

How Robyn and Marissa met in pre-K and ended up doing school musicals together (Into the Woods, Jack’s mom, Little Red, the whole thing)

Marissa’s early break in My Big Gay Italian Wedding and how that show opened doors in NYC

The midnight “Broadway booty call” that led to her debut in For the Girls with Kristin Chenoweth

The moment onstage when she got to say, “I’m making my Broadway debut right now” and the theater exploded

Life as a working performer: off-Broadway, tours, workshops, and why being a “type” can actually be your superpower

The Water for Elephants concussion story: weighted hula hoops, flying rope, and finishing the show anyway

Bat Boy at City Center: massive theater, short rehearsal window, and stepping into Marissa Jaret Winokur’s role

Robyn & Marissa swap memories of middle school: class president, speeches, and failed treasurer campaigns

A musical humming game that completely falls apart (and somehow still lands on Little Shop and Sound of Music)

Quick chat about Marissa’s Christmas tour with Jessica Vosk and her holiday album with Marty Thomas, The Award Winning Holiday Album

Mama Schall calls in for the Patreon producer shout-outs and a tiny dose of chaos

This week Robyn sits down with the one and only Mama Schall to talk about what it was like raising a child with Perthes disease, keeping a marriage strong and why laughing through the worst moments kept their whole family afloat.

This episode includes

• Robyn’s Perthes story: the misdiagnoses, the house-call doctor, years of braces, surgeries, bone spurs, and learning to walk again
• The hospital days: turning the den into a mini hospital, a recliner tipping over, emergency surgeries, and gift-shop bribes
• How Mama Schall handled the day-to-day: therapy for the whole family, negotiating braces, advocating at school, and keeping everyone mentally OK
• Marriage talk: meeting Papa Schall at 16, the “magic lock” trick, and 52 years of laughter
• Parenting advice: teenage daughters, staying open when kids are struggling, dealing with anxiety, and why work ethic matters more than career choice
• What people don’t know about Robyn: the mushy center, the anxiety, and why rainy days still hurt
• Engagement secrets: how Mama Schall kept the proposal plan hidden for two months
• Grandpa Louie’s best sayings and Mama Schall’s final message: find joy, surround yourself with good people, and don’t sweat the small stuff

Robyn Is Engaged: Part 2
Thank you for the insane amount of love this week. Today, Robyn sits down with Dr. Piano Man (and Security) to tell the full story from their side—how they planned the beach proposal, the “message in a bottle,” and every misdirect that kept Robyn guessing.

This episode includes

Operation “Bottled Up”: who knew, when they knew, and how the beach plan came together

The date pick: why October 19 won, Kimberly Williams-Paisley scheduling curveballs, and a last-minute sore throat

Dr. Piano Man’s backstory: Spain → physics → U.K. → U.S. citizenship

Culture mashup: Mallorca 2026 villa, Spanish menu, hora and breaking the glass

On love: the first-week “I think you’re my person” moment and why the goal was simply “make her happy”

Rapid-fire Q&A, and a tease of extra footage on Patreon

ROBYN IS ENGAGED!!!!! After years of dating stories and near-misses, Robyn says yes to Dr. Piano Man — on the beach, with a message-in-a-bottle, parchment letter, and family close by. There are happy tears, a perfect oval ring (with a braided “bow” band), and two white birds circling overhead. It’s romantic, hilarious, and very us.

This episode includes

• The proposal: Long Beach boardwalk → “castaway bottle” → the letter → the yes
• How he pulled it off (and why Robyn totally misread the clues)
• Ring talk: oval center, braided band, the sweet “bow” detail and ghost-doodle origin story
• Mallorca 2026: the villa, the food, and why the date was secretly booked months ago
• Calling Regina on-air, Mama Schall’s producer shout-outs, and what happens next
• Life stuff: shifting from “marriage is a scam” to “this is my person”
• Tease for Part 2: Security + Dr. Piano Man share the behind-the-scenes timeline
