Episode #44
Tuesday, May 12, 2026
Fresh off Mother’s Day, Lisi and Ellen use the characters from the Clique to illustrate different parenting styles. But they don't stop there. Lisi shares her parenting philosophy, exposes what she has witnessed from moms in the wild, and shines a light on the many ways parenting has changed over the generations. And yes, Millennials winning awards for everything does come up—AS IT SHOULD.
They also give props to Daniel Kraus, the ah-mazing GLU, who just won the 2026 Pulitzer Prize for fiction. It doesn’t get more alpha than that.
If you can only tolerate this podcast for five minutes, fast forward to this week’s Ask a GLU segment and witness Ellen losing her mind over this week’s problem. It’s worth it.
If you have a problem that might fire Ellen up, send it to thestateofthereunion@gmail.com, and Lisi will do her best to keep her under control.
xoxo Lisi & Ellen
