Show Notes
In Episode 21, our special guests Josh and Lauren Monroe join us and things go full retail nightmare. In this chaotic episode of Escape Womb, they face off against a haunted appliance, a passive-aggressive 7-foot greeter, yogurt-covered toddlers, and a store manager so powerful, he can deny refunds with a sigh. Oh—and did we mention Nala the therapy dog is officially retiring? It’s funny, heartfelt, and absolutely unhinged.
Takeaways: “The Therapy Dog Era Ends” – Nala’s had a career more meaningful than most humans. What’s next for the goodest girl in the classroom?
“Bernie Ate a Whole Apple (Without Chewing)” – Josh and Lauren’s other dog might be trying to break the bank... one emergency vet visit at a time.
“We Entered a Haunted Store to Return a Screaming Blender” – It screamed. We screamed. Everyone screamed.
“Jazz Hands and CEO Nepotism Saved Us” – How did a spontaneous interpretive dance and a fake story about the CEO’s son unlock a retail dungeon?
“We Escaped with a Refund… and a Coupon for Adult Diapers” – It wasn’t the ending we wanted. But it was the ending we deserved.

What started as an experiment somehow became a time capsule—of squirrels, tangents, and a lot of laughs. In this Season 1 finale, we reflect on our favorite moments, how Jordan went from podcast novice to certified co-host, and what it’s like podcasting while five months pregnant. There’s a lot of love, a lot of nostalgia, and yes—one final showdown over household temperatures. Plus, why this podcast might become the most chaotic baby diary of all time.
In Episode 20 we are joined by the hilarious by Educator Andrea for a wild rewrite of 1850 Los Angeles history. As Pio Pico and Arcadia Bandini, they’ll bribe senators, blackmail rivals, and maybe—just maybe—accidentally start a war. It’s land barons, chaos, and corruption... with a side of fries. And if you think they’re the good guys? Think again.
In Episode 19 we continue the saga to Benedict Scramblebatch! He is back—this time, facing his biggest challenge yet: Project Batterstorm, a sinister plan that threatens the entire coffeehouse industry. Will he survive an underground brunch war? Will Crumlord finally be toast? And most importantly—who is truly pulling the strings behind Project Batterstorm?
In Episode 18 we finally shares the big news—we're expecting! We open up about the joy, anxiety, and emotional rollercoaster of pregnancy after loss, reflecting on our journey from heartbreak to hope. Plus, I share how they broke the news to our family and my students!
In Episode 17 we welcome stand-up comedian and teacher Gaspare Randazzo for a hilarious, chaotic, and slightly dangerous episode. Gaspare shares his experience balancing a teaching career with performing comedy nationwide, as well as his family’s real-life history with the mafia. Then, we all play Past to the Future, rewriting history in 1931 Nevada, where Jordan plays Hollywood icon Clara Bow and somehow gets into a high-stakes poker match against a mob boss.
