I got to interview PA Lt. Gov.
@JohnFetterman
and his magical wife
@giselefetterman
They're a delight and a true example of a couple committed to public service and compassion for all.
This is the best part of the Jennifer Aniston interview. Period. "Or we just give it some time and then Lisa, Courteney, and I could reboot The Golden Girls and spend our last years together on wicker furniture."
I got to interview
@caitlinmoran
about her new book More Than a Woman. It's fucking great. Go buy it. And one of the many things that stuck with me is WOMEN MARRY THEIR GLASS CEILING
So proud of my friends

“Haven’t we moved beyond outdated ideas of femininity and gender roles? It’s time to stop telling women what makes them sexy — let us decide.”
Just gonna say this...I have a lot of girlfriends who have gotten their nails done in lockdown and are too scared to vote in person. If you can get a pedi or stand in line at Whole Foods you can mask up and vote in person. That's all.
We just met our Philly neighbors and said we moved from San Francisco. The guy was like “oh this is a downgrade” and I was like well so far no one has masturbated in front of me, my kid hasn’t picked up a heroin needle and I haven’t stepped in any human feces. So....upgrade?
This tough cookie is just making sure all our friends in California’s 4th Congressional district are registered to vote and that they vote for

After spending the past year producing a podcast on mom influencers I have a lot of thoughts on what is happening with Hilaria Baldwin. Mainly if you decide to turn your life as a mom into a brand do not complain when people ask you questions about being a mom.
And this is the number one story on
@marieclaire
!!! So thrilled for Charlotte Walsh Likes to Win to be named one of the best books of 2018 among these other incredible authors.
Every community stands to benefit from an accurate census count — but we know that women, particularly women of color, have an outsized stake in the census this year.
So take 5 minutes, go to , and get it done. It matters.
This is a book that needs to be written. I'm honored to be writing it with Christine Pride: WE ARE NOT LIKE THEM, the story of a lifelong friendship between two women—a successful black TV journalist, and a working class white woman married to a Philadelphia police officer.

One solution to the crisis for mothers we are not talking about enough right now is asking fathers to step the fuck up. I started working on an essay about this, but I am also putting it out here so we can talk about it.
Second vax down! Sore arm, a little tired. But I'm always tired I have two fucking kids....so I think I could say it was the vaccine and watch some HGTV, but let's be honest I'm just going to drink four cups of coffee and keep working because this is the norm for moms.
It's time to stop saying "working mom". It simply doesn't work any more and it belittles all of the work women do outside the labor force. I wrote about it with

“If she wants children and a job, a woman’s life is only as good as the man or woman she marries,” Moran writes. “That’s the biggest truth I know. All too often women are marrying their glass ceilings.”
I don’t have many words about the continued shootings in Philadelphia except that we have a city government that has done nothing in the face of this gun violence epidemic.

I'm thinking of starting a new podcast called Don't Pull Your Penis Out..and it's just men who want to...you know pull it out, calling me up and me saying DON'T PULL YOUR PENIS OUT....
Making a bold statement.
@hallmarkchannel
movies have more women in high powered jobs and pass the Bechdel test more often than the canon of all other movies. (Can you tell I have strep throat and been on the couch all day)
Honored to see my

gun violence podcast on mother’s solving their sons murders on this list. “When police don’t solve murders, Philadelphia mothers work to do it themselves.”
Fun fact about Charlotte Walsh Likes to Win. One of the original titles was Charlie Walsh Likes to Win just to see how people felt the moment they realized the book was about a woman.
I was doing a bonus Under the Influence episode on bookstagrammers but now I guess I need to do one on what happens when the platform where you make your livelihood goes away.

A powerful story about friendship and love, prejudice and betrayal, and standing up for what you believe in, no matter the cost.

Hilaria Baldwin owes her fans some respect. This is a woman who has turned her life as a mother into a brand....who makes money off her family on social media. That's wonderful. I fucking love it. But she also has to be accountable.
