We’re discussing our favorite fictional mother characters who truly break the mold, why Jennifer Lopez was snubbed from an Oscar/Golden Globe nomination, and the real-life women in our lives who have lent a motherly hand. This week, Michelle and Kim are joined by real-life crushes and podcast hosts, Anna Hossnieh and Shereen Lani Younes (Ethnically Ambiguous).

Who we’re crushing on this week: Ramona (Jennifer Lopez) from Hustlers, Carmela Soprano (Edie Falco) from The Sopranos, Celie (Whoopi Goldberg) and Sofia (Oprah Winfrey) from The Color Purple, and Erin Brokovich (Julia Roberts) from Erin Brockovich

This week’s small business shout-out: Strand Book Store (New York, NY)
