Did you know October 2nd is National Name Your Car Day? It's not a federal holiday (yet) but here at the Carpool Podcast this is a day you know we had to recognize!
That is why Kelly came back from maternity leave to have an intense conversation with Sunny Karassik from Capital One about the top car names and what we have named our cars. If you know Kelly, you know naming things is one of her passions so she has a LOT of thoughts!
Plus, a little update on the newest member of the family - Elizabeth Rose Stumpe!

DO WE NEED A SHOWER CAP?
mardi 30 juillet 2024 • Durée 51:59
Absence makes the driveway dump list longer, so Kelly is ready for the Carpool today. She kicks off the episode with another reminder to utilize your iPhone features and wraps with a baby name clue—hint, she won't be taking the Harry Potter theme route.
Today's millennial word of the day is 'it was a movie' meaning it was so good it could have hit the big screen. Kelly and Lizz try to break down a 'brat girl summer' again and Lizz has taken her stance—if the explanation is 'the essence' she's out.
In driveway dumps Kelly wonders if she needs a shower cap, is plotting a 'try not to waddle' pregnancy challenge, and has a hot take on Ballerina Farms and the life cycle of an influencer. In short, you can get an angle out of anybody. Both gals are loving the Olympics and following Ilona, a female rugby player who's giving the best behind the scenes peeks on social media. Lizz is watching men's rugby and Kelly is loving gymnastics and swimming. Both agree—water polo is some kind of superhuman feat.

On last three transactions, Lizz has a Frame TV update and made a big Little Sleepies order as well as an order for an electric fence. Kelly is nesting. She ordered Silverettes for breastfeeding relief, 200 pre-cut parchment paper (thanks Naptime Kitchen for the hack!) and snagged a couple of quality Beckham Hotel Collection Pillows for her master bedroom.
In industry news, Deadpool features Honda Odyssey and the Kia Carnival while Toyota is replacing every single engine in a hundred thousand Tundra pickups and Lexus LXs—yikes.
Barbeque glazed sausage is hitting the dinner table in five minutes flat thanks to Lizz's pin-spiration. Ditch the drive-through with your favorite links and a little dash of BBQ.

BREAKING CAR MOM MINIVAN NEWS
jeudi 3 août 2023 • Durée 28:26
The Stumpe family vacation planning is in the works, and Chris (mom) is doing the most. Craig’s (dad’s) birthday agenda is full of morning coffee talk, breakfast, pilates practice, nap gaps, and a dress-up-like dad extravaganza. Follow Kelly and Lizz on Instagram for the hilarious highlights!
Today’s millennial word of the day is ‘core’ which defines an aesthetic or vibe such as Barbie core, cottage core, Car Mom core, or Craig core.
Kelly will be thriving and not just surviving family vacation travel with the kids. Her last transaction was an Amazon shop for road trip activities planned out with coordinated toys that you can find on her storefront list here. Lizz is shopping at Athleta and Lulu for new shorts and tops that actually fit and hit Carters for a new pair of PJs for baby James. Kelly bought the pickle flavored Spritz for a future taste test and Lizz is in love with her new Divvy shampoo and conditioner.
We’re all just a little icky— and that’s okay. Today’s listener icks include adults calling each other mama, moms saying things like ‘I’ve got four under four’ as if it’s a contest for who has the harder life, singing happy birthday to adults (unanimously icky), and clipping your nails at work.
In industry news, the 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser is returning to America smaller and resembling the 2024 Lexus GX. Elon is giving Kanye with his move to rename Twitter ‘X.’ And the Car Mom is officially driving a minivan

TIKTOK CONFESSION AND GIRL DINNERS
mardi 1 août 2023 • Durée 39:38
Lizz finally gets the Carpool hype, Kelly has something shocking to get off her chest, and the great eight makes a return on today’s episode.
→If you drive a BMW X3 it’s your turn to show up in The Carpool Podcast reviews. Share your ride and rating over in Apple Podcasts!
Did we all not know this had a name? Today’s millennial word of the day, girl dinner, is going viral. Kelly and Lizz’s favorite no-cooking (or not-much-cooking) required dinners include tortilla’s with PB&J and salami with cream cheese and pickles.
Once the Fourth of July passes, is it time for Halloween? Lizz says no way. It’s too hot to be looking at pumpkins. And Kelly chimes in about inauthentic holidays on today’s driveway dumps. Baby James has a bit of baby acne and dandruff, so Lizz has Tubby Todd’s Bye-Bye Cradle Cap on order, Kelly is loving laughing at the same mom things with Lizz, and Mattie is putting a cramp in the family photo scheduling with a black eye from rugby. Last, but certainly the most, postpartum Kelly is in LOVE with her new Ahleta Boundless shorts.
The gals are ready to crown a winner in the great eight of things you get to do when you’re not pregnant. Up for the win are: laying on your stomach, having a drink, putting on your socks and shoes, being able to hug your husband again, the post-shower towel wrap, getting down and up off the floor, not having to pee every five seconds, and fitting into your clothes again.
In industry news EVs are feeling the heat wave, losing capacity, and raising questions about the longevity of their batteries. Ford attributes price drops on their Lightning trucks to cost-of-supplies decreases, but Kelly thinks otherwise.

An iconic listen submission has arrived for today’s ditch the drive-through: KFC, but at home. Grab a bowl and fill it up with your favorite popcorn chicken, mashed potatoes, and corn then top it with brown gravy. Mouth. Watering.

jeudi 27 juillet 2023 • Durée 51:27
Kelly and Lizz are ready to wrap up summer poolside with several family vacations in the works, a 60th birthday for dad and a kid-free 30th for Kelly.
A listener writes in with today’s millennial word of the day ‘me-coded.’
Don’t underestimate how far a little meal prep can go. Kelly shares her driveway dump that kicks off with how marinating chicken and chopping veggies while you’re already getting the kitchen dirty is absolutely genius. She’s all about making throwing dinner together a little easier and wonders what the next food-of-the-moment making a splash on the dinner scene will be. Tuna? Hard boiled eggs? The jury’s out.
Meanwhile, Lizz is filling her Instagram stories with silly goose reels. If you’re not following her on IG and laughing along, what are you waiting for?

In industry news the new Hyundai Santa Fé is giving Lexus GX, Land Rover, and EV vibes. Kelly isn’t ready to call it too futuristic, but the gals are a bit shocked. Lizz gives her take on the new Traverse and Kelly updates us on the new Atlas upgrades including a turbocharged 4 cylinder and ventilated seats. The gals love the luxe updates, but are not thrilled they’ve removed all buttons from the dash and steering wheel controls.

THE GENIUS OF THE BIKE SHORT MOM FIT
mardi 25 juillet 2023 • Durée 50:40
Barbie might be making headlines but today’s episode is hosted by Brats girlie Kelly and the show’s first non-husband guest co-host, Polly Pocket girlie Ashley. This duo has been transacting, wardrobe purging, making the most of mom life — and they’re ready to share all.
Attention Buick SUV mamas! Sound off in your Carpool Podcast reviews this week and let us know what you loved about today’s co-host while you’re there!
Ashley brings today’s millennial word of the day from her social scrolling: feminine era. This is when you’re in an LTR and have someone to help you do the heavy lifting.
Ashley has been putting together the most darling mom-fits over on @realactuallyashley and Kelly is a stan. Biker shorts and a dress? Say less. The gals rave about buying the proper size clothes to create more comfort and grabbing a girlfriend to clean your closets out together.
Gym, shower, makeup, ‘get ready with me’ on IG stories, hair, and outfit kick off most of Ashley’s days, but even as a makeup artist, she isn’t judging anyone who doesn’t put a full face of makeup on every morning. She’s simply here to champion every woman doing what she needs to have a better day and wholeheartedly believes you should let your clothes make your body look better instead of making your body look better to fit into your clothes.
In today’s last three transactions segment, Ashley reveals she took the leap and bought her kids tablets she may have to save until Christmas, grabbed makeup erasers and Bento Boxes on prime day, and made a grocery order for her ‘cut.’ Kelly hit Athleta’s semi-annual sale, ordered an ugly t-shirt for her family’s vacation secret santa, and made a Costco haul complete with dinners for Lizz.
BBQ chicken without the grill is today’s ditch the drive-through.

A FIRST LOOK AT THE 2024 CHEVY TRAVERSE with TRICIA MORROW
mardi 18 juillet 2023 • Durée 30:48
A Chevy Traverse 2024 first look that did not disappoint kicks off this special guest episode with Tricia Morrow — GM’s Safety Engineering Manager.
Tricia shares how she’s brought compassion into a male dominated field with innovation that just makes sense. She’s influenced the addition of bucks to drive and rear seat reminders to the GM safety feature lineup.
Kelly gushes over the Chevy Traverse with Tricia and shares her favorite features including the seatbelt map and a third row that isn’t an afterthought. The gals both get on their seatbelt soapbox with a reminder that wearing your seatbelt is the #1 thing you can do to protect yourself in the event of an auto accident.
→ Hey Chevy Traverse drivers! It’s your turn to hop on over to the carpool podcast on Apple podcasts and leave us a five star rating and review. Don’t forget to shout out your ride and tell us what you think of the show.
And since this teen mom has real-world car shopping experience, Tricia shares her top three car priorities, why she shopped used, and how she feels about teens driving with crash prevention tech. She even shares her teen’s response to GM’s teen driver feature, app to monitor her teen’s driving, and the driver report card.
Kelly picks Tricia’s brain about her autonomous vehicles predictions, hopes, and fears before diving into her ‘would you rather’ of car comfort features. Listen in to hear what she’d choose out of: heated seats vs ventilated seats, heated seats vs heated steering wheel, Apple Car Play vs panoramic sunroof, and the power tailgate vs keyless entry.
To wrap up the episode, Tricia shares her favorite ditch the drive-through — a meal that satisfies even her pickiest eater — panini pressed meat.

Guilty pleasures dominate today’s driveway dump. Kelly’s reading True Biz and bingeing @hintofnattyp, Lizz is loving happy dances from @kellye.essentials, and Sydney is loving awkward OTDs on Tik Tok.
