Lizz's world is on fire with no childcare this week, but the pod must go on. Good thing there is the live action "Aladdin" movie to keep the kids entertained. According the Kelly and Lizz, those Disney live action movies are underrated. Kelly has been busy doing car consultations all over the country, this week in Chicago and next week in Ft. Lauderdale. But she's making time to do a little celebration. First, it is her 9 year wedding anniversary. Does this officially qualify them to give out marriage advice? Then, it's time for the long talked about Hot Dog Roast! They still haven't done a full head count but this is shaping up to be a BIG party!  Since it's Friday, you know that means it's time for a 'Dancing with the Stars' recap! Did the right person go home? In Industry news, it's all about vehicle affordability and GM deciding to keep Apple Play in their cars after all. Then in Ditch the Drive-Thru it's all about simple supper season and they reveal the Steptember winner.  It's October and National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, which means the return of Blake's Besties. Every year Kelly and Lizz share listener stories of the little ones lost too soon and honor their memory.  Today's Dish the Drive Thru is brought to you by the Chinet® brand. Chinet plates make dinner at home easy, whether it's a quick weeknight meal or a full barbecue spread.

Another new micro-hobby is upon us! Kelly has a large amount of ground pork to go through and she is determined to perfect a pork dumpling. Lizz is working on her own kind of micro-hobby and time-maxxing her show by cleaning her makeup brushes simultaneously. Also, who is wearing underwear with giant Victoria's Secret logos on them? Then it's time to re-cap 'Dancing With The Stars' and see if their top four stands. Did the right person go home? Finally Kelly and Lizz share their salad hot takes in Ditch the Drive-Thru.

A lot of things to talk about on the pod today after a packed weekend with two birthdays. Mom and Sloan's birthday celebrations had very different yet very appropriate vibes. Kelly isn't stopping as she is currently planning a fall party. In her spare time she is cleaning out her closet and her pantry! Fall is here, which means it's time for football and 'Dancing with the Stars.' To put it mildly, Kelly and Lizz are thriving. Plus, it's about appropriate time for those Halloween decorations to come out. Before October 1st should be a crime. Speaking of Halloween, George is already working on his costume and it might not be school appropriate...  In Industry News, a shout out to Uncle Bill who passed away last week and was memorialized with a lovely obituary. He was a legend in the local car scene and a major reason their family is in the industry today. In other news, Kelly has an update on the Nissan Rogue Hybrid.  Save 20% Off Honeylove by going to honeylove.com/CARPOOL! #honeylovepod Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/8t5pvstq #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

The podcast might sound a little different this week, but it's all for a good reason. Kelly's ducts are getting cleaned! She's not the only one either. Clean ducts all around!  Moving on, it's time for a full recap of Kelly and Haddie's New York City trip. What do you do when you take a 6-year-old to the biggest city in the country? There's a lot of great tips here for your next girls' trip to the big city.  'Dancing with the Stars' is officially back! Kelly and Lizz have a LOT to talk about after the first two nights and the first two eliminations. Did the right people go home? There are definitely some favorites emerging.  Then, it's on to advice questions. First, how can you make your sister's wedding special when you're a mom and can't party like you used to? Plus, breaking down coats in car seats. What is the real scoop?

It's a big day on the podcast as Lizz is joined by a very special guest - their father Craig! He tells the story about how he met their mother and how he keeps their love alive after five kids. Plus, he shares the parenting advice he received from his family and passed on to his kids, which helped keep them close growing up until now.

How is Lizz sleeping with the new baby? "Fine." But the real issue is all the laundry that baby #3 brings with her. Unlike Kelly, laundry is her least favorite task and with three kids now it seems to be never ending. But the laundry pile might need to take a break as the website launch day is here! Hopefully...  Time to visit Last Three Transactions and right now it's all about getting the kids' fall wardrobe in order. Lizz got Sloan a cheerleader outfit and revealed just how much she and Kelly wanted to be a part of the pom-pom squad when they were kids. Kelly is getting ready for football season with some new Detroit Tigers gear. Plus, does she need to report a bad seller to Ebay?  Then it's a big day in Industry News as the IIHS finally give their results after testing the Kia Telluride and Hyundai Palisade. It's all good news! Plus, updates on two new off-road vehicles that could be hitting the market soon.

Lizz and Elise are BACK on the podcast and Kelly is SO happy about it! You would think they talk all the time, but in reality the podcast is really the only time the two sisters get to chat. It's the perfect time as the new Car Mom website launches this week! Are they ready? Kinda...  Kelly fills us in on her latest trip to New York City for work and some sister time. For one night she was the main character in the big city, with her sister's clothing approval of course. They befriended a bartender and tried to find Sydney a man. It was the perfect New York night. But not all is perfect in the family as Steptember is about to tear them apart. Since summer is pretty much over, it's the perfect time to share Kelly's summer notes. She explains why red, white and blue shorts are always the perfect option for the kids' summer wardrobe. Plus, how she will be perfecting the summer cocktail next year.  Now that we know the 'Dancing with the Stars' line-up, Kelly and Lizz are ready to make their predictions. Who do they think will end up in the top four?

Lizz is back! She's got a new little one with her and is ready to share the birth story. First, a quick catch up as the ladies prepare for the launch of the brand new website. They bought the purses for the launch giveaway, which was quite an experience. The family has also started a September walking challenge. Who will take the win? Then, an update on Kelly's first ever fantasy football league and the questionable trades she's already made.  Then, it's on to the most lovely birth story you may ever hear. Lizz talks about how they went into the hospital without a name and ended up with one that wasn't even in their top picks. But the sweetest moment was when they revealed to Kelly the middle name they picked. Before they go, it's time for a quick Last Three Transactions. There are a couple kid birthdays coming up so both Kelly and Lizz are getting ready. Plus, Lizz is continuing to find ways to keep her other two kids entertained while she's with the baby.

Lizz is still on maternity leave, but that is just fine when Kelly has a LOT to talk about from a busy week! She's done it all from car seat conventions and kids' fishing tournaments to creating a fantasy football league. Yes, a new micro-hobby has been unlocked! Plus, getting ready for a new season of "Dancing with the Star" and two trips to New York.  But it's not just about Kelly today, Side Hustle Summer continues! Today is a special one with the return of The Marketplace Mom, Olivia. She talked to Kelly and Lizz last summer about how she made selling on Facebook Marketplace her side hustle. Now, she has turned that into a thriving Instagram account with almost 20,000 followers! Olivia talks about what sells well on Facebook Marketplace, common seller mistakes, and scams to watch out for.  Follow Olivian on Instagram @themarketplacemom

Surprise! We've got a second episode for you this week and it's all about Side Hustle Summer. Three amazing ladies join the Carpool Podcast to talk about their side hustles.  First, Beverly is running a side hustle close to our hearts. She runs her own summer camp for local kids out of her home. What started as a way to keep her kids and their friends entertained evolved into a business. She's even gone back to school to learn how kids learn!  Then, Lynsey The Memory Mom is helping moms turn their overloaded camera rolls into home movies. After having her first child she was looking for a program to help her arrange and create using all the photos and videos she had of her baby. When she couldn't find what she was looking for, she just created it herself!  Finally, friend of the Car Mom, Megan, joins to talk about her side hustle The Nurturing Nook. She helps parents design and create custom nurseries for their little ones. Once again, this is another business created after seeing a need for herself and realized parents were struggling with the same problem. Now she is creating beautiful nurseries!

The kids are back to school, but Kelly isn't slowing down. The new website is almost ready to launch with a big celebration on September 10 in St. Louis. But don't worry; if you don't live near St. Louis, there will be another way you can be a part of the fun. You might even win a designer purse! Kelly is also headed to the "Kids in Motion" conference. What does one wear to a car seat convention?  Then it's time for a chat with Natalie Johnson from Home Beings with Love. She is the meal prep queen and gives us more advice on prepping dinners for the whole family. She talks about her go-to freezer meals that you will actually want to eat and her rolling 3-day dinner plan.
