The dynamic mother-son duo has returned for an incredible fifth season, and the growth is remarkable. MacDog, once our seventh-grade podcast rookie, now navigates the complex world of eleventh grade with his signature blend of sarcasm, wisdom, and teenage nonchalance.
This season premiere captures the essence of what makes this relationship so special – authentic conversation that ranges from academic frustrations to major milestones. MacDog's recent driver's test success marks a significant shift in independence, though his description of the D and V as "a shit show" reminds us that some experiences remain universally frustrating across generations. The excitement of driving to McDonald's and Target solo represents that beautiful, terrifying moment when parents begin loosening the reins.
The junior year academic experience comes alive through MacDog's candid classroom rundown. His struggle with cabinetry class ("the machines are confusing"), half-remembered Spanish phrases, and passionate hatred for graphs in Algebra 2 paint a vivid picture of high school challenges. Meanwhile, family connections remain strong through weekend barbecues, dinner outings for pulled pork sandwiches, and trips to Minnehaha Falls complete with Italian ice tastings.
What truly shines is their unfiltered banter – from the would-you-rather game involving awkward public nudity versus unfortunate bathroom accidents to a string of groan-worthy dad jokes that only a mother could love. Their easy back-and-forth captures the special dynamic that has made this podcast a favorite for parents navigating the teenage years.
As they wrap up with confused Spanish phrases and promises of "more stories MacDog doesn't want shared," listeners are left eagerly anticipating what junior year will bring. Subscribe now to join this journey through the triumphs, embarrassments, and everyday moments that make the teenage years simultaneously maddening and magical.

Speaker 1And then people in sixth grade were like are you a boy or a girl?
Speaker 2Because, I had no hair yeah and I was.
Speaker 1Really. I hated that. It made me so sad. So, anyway, I'll never cut my hair short, and so then I have hair trauma because I just feel like people always do a bad job and I don't even ask much.

Speaker 1Well, you do watch a lot of spoilers.
Speaker 2I do yeah.
Speaker 1And I'm excited because Colleen Hoover's book Regretting you is coming out. The movie's coming out on October 24th, and so me and Emily and Jen are having a girl's date. We're going to go see it and we're excited. Wait, it's a movie. Yeah, so we're going to go to the movie theater. And yeah, so we're going to go to the movie theater and then depending on what time we see the show, then we're going to do lunch or dinner.
Speaker 2Oh my gosh, we did that, bro. What the hell.
Speaker 1What the hell-y Right now? I just started a new book today and it's good so far. It is by Sherry. I'm sorry, I need to lock in. What is that? I don't know. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2I need to lock in. What is that? I don't know.
Speaker 1I just felt like saying something oh okay, sherry LaPena and it's called Everyone here is Lying and it's about this family, this neighborhood. The dad is a doctor and he is having an affair and he has two kids and a wife. Anyway, the daughter goes, his daughter goes missing, and then you know, it's like the neighborhood, like everything kind of starts to unravel, where everyone's lying about something, and like this neighborhood that appeared so perfect, like everyone has secrets and everyone has, you know, suddenly, like the safe neighborhood doesn't feel safe and the woman that the dad is having an affair with is worried, like because of the missing daughter, stuff's going to get dug up and she's going to get found out that she was having an affair with him, and anyway, so it's super good. Let's see Family man. On the surface, he, she, was having an affair with him and anyway, so it's super good. Let's see Family man. On the surface, he's been having an affair, an affair that ended horribly this afternoon at a motel up the road. So when he returns to his house, devastated and angry, he finds his difficult nine-year-old daughter Avery unexpectedly home from school and loses his temper.
Speaker 1Hours later, the daughter Avery's family declares her missing. Suddenly. This town doesn't feel so safe. And William the dad doctor isn't the only one on the street who's hiding a lie, as witnesses come forward with information that may or may not be true. Avery's neighbors become increasingly unhinged. Who took Avery? Nothing will prepare you for the truth, so I'm reading that book and, yeah, like I said, it's hooked me in pretty good. So, mac, is there anything else that you want to talk about on the show today?
Speaker 1Hmm, hmm, I mean you just want to make that annoying noise? Yes, what happened to my? What are you looking?
