This Christmas Eve, Hannah and Barbi slow things down for a thoughtful, meaningful conversation about the season. They reflect on Christmases past, explore the fascinating history behind beloved Christmas songs, and spend time unpacking the story of Jesus’ birth - including the historical context and the unsettling reality of King Herod’s reign.

Along the way, they talk about parenting and how raising children so often mirrors the heart of the Gospel, share a few cozy traditions (yes, including figgy pudding), and sprinkle in plenty of classic Hannah-and-Barbi bird walks. And before the episode wraps, Hannah and Casey share a big surprise that just might keep you listening until the end.

It’s a warm, reflective, Christmas Eve episode meant to be listened to with the lights low, the tree glowing, and your heart open.

This week, Hannah and Barbi dive into the rich history behind some of our most beloved Christmas traditions. They explore the origins of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra - from its powerful storytelling to its extraordinary charitable impact - before jumping into the surprising beginnings of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and the iconic voice of Burl Ives.

The conversation also takes a fascinating turn into the era of celebrity blacklisting during the 40s and 50s, the golden age of stop-motion animation, and how these moments shaped the holiday specials we still cherish today.

And woven throughout it all is a heartfelt reminder of the importance of grandparents, the wisdom they hold, and the memories they gift us. With plenty of nostalgia, history, and holiday warmth, this episode is a meaningful celebration of Christmas past and present.

This week, it’s just Hannah and Barbi - and they have a lot to talk about! The episode kicks off with a deep dive into the history of the Rockettes and the magic of Radio City Music Hall. From there, they chat about their plans for the season, including a trip to Cumberland Island, which naturally leads Hannah into a mini-rant about the island’s wild horses (classic).

They circle back to the Rockettes and reminisce about their own visits to New York - especially the time they experienced the city at Christmastime, complete with roasted chestnuts and all the holiday sparkle. The conversation wraps up with a fun look at the origins of different Christmas songs and the stories behind them.

It’s cozy, nostalgic, a little ranty, a lot Christmasy, and completely “Mom and Hannah.”

This week’s episode is a true mixed bag in the best “We Saved You a Spot” way. Hannah and Barbi jump into holiday talk—sharing their favorite celebrations, Thanksgiving memories, and thoughts on the Macy’s Day Parade—before taking a wild detour to Snake Island (yes, the one crawling with venomous golden lanceheads). They also chat about The David Movie, sprinkle in more Thanksgiving chatter, and welcome Mario to the conversation for a fun cameo.

It’s a relaxed, slightly chaotic, but still heartwarming episode full of laughs, side roads, and classic Mom-and-Hannah (and Mario) energy.

This week, Hannah and Barbi kick off the episode with all things Thanksgiving—how it looked growing up, how it looks now, the pressure of cooking dinner, and Hannah’s ongoing beef with turkey. They chat about the Macy’s Day Parade, Mom’s famous punch, and then wander (happily) into conversations about the real Most Interesting Man in the World and what made Babe Ruth such an unforgettable figure beyond the stats. With plenty of bird walks and bunny trails, this pre-Thanksgiving episode is cozy, nostalgic, and full of the kind of storytelling only Hannah and Barbi can pull off.

In this week’s episode, Hannah and Barbi cover a little bit of everything—housekeeping from last week’s show, Hannah’s experience at a Megyn Kelly event, and the meaning behind “Grit and Grace,” the women’s event Hannah will soon be speaking at. They weave in a fascinating conversation about Martha Ballard, the realities of spouses who travel for work, and how families can create stability for kids in the middle of changing schedules. And because no “Mom and Hannah” conversation is ever predictable, they also dive into the incredible science of breast milk and how it’s uniquely designed to meet a baby’s needs. It’s a thoughtful, winding, real-life conversation full of wisdom, encouragement, and a few surprises along the way.

This week, Hannah and Barbi are all over the map in the best way! From chatting about scents and pheromones to debating whether or not to celebrate Halloween, it’s an episode full of laughs and honest thoughts. They dive into all things fall—comfort foods, cozy feelings, and how bad food can sometimes make a surprising comeback. And of course, they couldn’t resist talking about those viral Christian dances and flashmobs that have been lighting up social media. It’s a warm, funny, and delightfully random conversation you won’t want to miss.

This week’s episode doesn’t really have a theme—and that’s kind of the beauty of it. Hannah and Barbi settle in for one of their classic heart-to-hearts, chatting about a little bit of this and a little bit of that. From funny stories to random thoughts, it’s a perfectly “Mom and Hannah” kind of conversation—real, relaxed, and full of laughter. Think of it like sitting at the kitchen table with family and just letting the talk flow.
