<p>You've asked, and we've answered! After a brief hiatus, the mamas are REUNITED and back in the booth to give you that good queer parenting content you all crave. </p><p><br /></p><p>First on it, Laura talks swimming lessons for a two year old (OMG time flies!) and talks about all the fun they're having, including a harrowing story of her daughter trying out a diving board for the first time! </p><p><br /></p><p>The mamas move onto the second segment to talk about their great love of thrifting! Laura lists off her most recent great deals and why she gives certain thrift stores the side eye... </p><p><br /></p><p>Being a gay podcast, the mamas talk about June and why it's the gayest month of all. Justine gives some book recommendation (Rae Spoon's "First Spring Grass Fire" and Kai Cheng Thom's "Fierce Femmes and Notorious Liars: A Dangerous Trans Girl's Confabulous Memoir") for some excellent queer Canadian content. Laura talks about the beauty of her daughter listening to children's books featuring lesbian moms in her classroom. </p><p><br /></p><p>We wrap it up talking about Laura's daughter's upcoming birthday and all that entails.

<p>One singular mama is back for YOU dear listeners, with a fantastic guest for your listening enjoyment: the one, the only: Kevin the Husband! </p><p>Kevin is here to share his meal prep strategies (chicken pot pie: OUT, ravioli: IN), share date night stories and to participate in our long running tradition: My Horrible Poop Moment of the Day. </p><p>Kevin also talks about being a small town queer, preferring the quieter slower pace. There is the odd time that being trans pops up, like in interactions with medical professionals, but as Kevin tells us, he lives a half-invisible life, with people able to read some flavor of queer from his aura, but aren't quite able to pin point it down ("bisexual, perhaps?"). </p><p><br></p><p>We finish off by musing the role that queerness plays in our role as parents, and end it off by agreeing to go out on a date soon. </p><p><br></p><p>It's a fun cute episode, hope you all enjoy!</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>

<p>Beloved listeners, the mamas have a treat for you: our very first guest on the podcast, featuring the marvelous Bethany Lee from Protect Our Water Source! </p><p><br></p><p>Bethany is a fellow mother, and like Justine, has roots in the city and has fallen in love with the rural Quebec life in recent years. In this wide ranging interview, we talk about loving and belonging in our communities, how being mothers shapes our hopes for the future, and how we should share the most precious public resource: water. </p><p><br></p><p>Bethany is the spokesperson for an organization called "Protect Our Water Source", which become organized when it was revealed there would be a commercial water pumping venture in Hinchinbrook. Her community of Powerscourt was both surprised and concerned by the lack of information provided, and the organization has sprung forth to push for more disclosure on how water testing was performed for this project. </p><p><br></p><p>She takes us through the timelines of the project, what risks water pumping poses to the nearby farms, how the community has responded and what the next steps are. </p><p><br></p><p>It's a fantastic episode, both for locals and all those who have ever wondered: "Who is water for?" </p><p><br></p><p>Bethany would say: "it's for the people". </p><p><br></p><p>Sources we mentioned: </p><p><br></p><p>Protect Our Water Source: https://protectourwatersource.ca/</p><p><br></p><p>"The History of the County of Huntingdon [Quebec]: And of the Seigniories of Chateaugay and Beauharnois from Their Settlement to the Year 1838" by Robert Sellers </p><p><br></p><p>Gleaner: "Farm To Food" podcast </p><p>Eau Secours: https://eausecours.org/ </p>
