Shana and Maya are back for another round of “Is This Rude Now?” and apparently, we need a whole new rulebook for being a person in 2026. From calling without texting first and leaving voicemails to four-minute voice memos, FaceTiming without warning, chaotic group chats, and the dreaded “What’s up?” text, they debate the ever-changing rules of modern communication.

Then things get even more personal: splitting restaurant bills, Venmo-ing someone for 12 cents, bringing your dog or your kid everywhere, AirPods at work, speakerphone in public, posting photos without permission, fundraising requests, and whether you really need to follow someone back on social media. And yes, they even tackle the question of whether using AI to write a birthday message is rude.

It’s petty, relatable, wildly opinionated, and full of the kind of everyday etiquette debates that somehow become VERY serious very quickly. Basically, if you’ve ever wondered, “Am I being rude, or is everyone else just insane?” this episode is for you.

Shana, Carrie, and Wendy are back for a wide-ranging episode of One More Thing, starting with a deeply personal conversation about the 25th anniversary of 9/11, what they remember from that day, and what America still gets wrong about its aftermath.

The conversation turns to the measles resurgence, declining vaccination rates, public health, misinformation, and the massive challenge of rebuilding trust in institutions. They also get into the state of the Democratic Party, developing the next generation of leaders, holding elected officials accountable, and what it will take to actually rebuild—not simply repair—our political and social systems.

Then they dive into James Talarico, Jimmy Kimmel, media censorship, equal time, political advertising, and the increasingly complicated relationship between politics and television.

It's thoughtful, frustrated, funny, occasionally chaotic, and ultimately hopeful about what comes next.

Shana and Maya are back for an all-pop-culture episode of One More Thing, starting with the recent losses of Dolly Parton and Tim Curry and a hilarious debate over which celebrities absolutely cannot be allowed to go next.

They also dive into celebrity scandals, cancel culture, Meghan Markle, Oprah, Chevy Chase, Kanye West, Chris Brown, and the complicated question of whether you can separate someone's art from their behavior.

Then the conversation takes a nostalgic turn as they reminisce about the 90s, VHS tapes, old-school TVs, Blockbuster, CDs, Game Boys, mall food, and the things they wish they could bring back.

Expect plenty of celebrity gossip, controversial opinions, nostalgia, food debates, and the kind of completely unexpected conversations that make One More Thing what it is.

John is back in the seat for another episode of One More Thing, and this week the conversation covers a little bit of everything.

Shana and John start in Cleveland, talking about the Cleveland Public Library contract negotiations, the power of unions, and the workers who fought for better wages, benefits, and working conditions. From there, they dive into Ohio politics, Amy Acton, Vivek Ramaswamy, Democratic infighting, Hakeem Jeffries, Chuck Schumer, Max Miller, Bernie Moreno, and the upcoming election.

They also take a closer look at Judge for Yourself, local judicial races, and the challenges Democrats face when trying to build a winning coalition.

Then things take a more personal turn as they remember Dolly Parton, her generosity, advocacy, and the many ways she used her platform to help others. And, of course, they share the absolutely incredible story of Dolly entering a Dolly Parton lookalike contest and losing to a drag queen.

It's politics, labor, Cleveland, pop culture, plenty of strong opinions, and a whole lot of One More Thing along the way.

Shana and Carrie are back for another wide-ranging episode of One More Thing, covering everything from vacation chaos and the BUC-EE’S experience to parenting, consequences, small business, and the challenges of trying to make a difference.

They talk about raising kids, letting them learn from their mistakes, balancing generosity with the realities of running a business, and why sometimes you have to stop trying to fix everything at once.

The conversation also turns to Ethan Khorana, talking about medical debt, civic engagement, and an inspiring young person who raised $10,000 to eliminate $1.2 million in medical debt. They discuss why meaningful change does not always have to be massive, and how helping one person can still have a real impact.

As always, expect plenty of laughs, personal stories, parenting debates, business talk, and the kind of unexpected detours that make One More Thing what it is.

Wendy Leatherberry finally joins One More Thing for a wide-ranging conversation about politics, pop culture, parenting, and everything happening in between.

Shana and Wendy dive into the rollback of civil rights protections, Project 2025, education, LGBTQ+ rights, the upcoming political races, and the push to turn Ohio blue. They also talk about the state of Democratic leadership, political accountability, and why some stories seem to disappear from the news cycle.

Of course, it wouldn't be One More Thing without plenty of detours, from pets and parenting to streaming shows, restaurants, disposable income, and the realities of getting older.

It's political, personal, funny, and occasionally completely off the rails.

Shana and John are back together for another chaotic hour of One More Thing! They talk Gen X childhoods, getting older, and why today's twenty-somethings seem to be living a very different life.

Then things get political as they dive into Max Miller, Brian Poindexter, Amy Acton, LGBTQ+ issues, Vivek Ramaswamy, Ohio's upcoming governor's race, and the messy world of Democratic and Republican politics.

They also head to Michigan to talk about the Senate primary, outside spending, and what it looks like to lose a political race gracefully. Finally, they tackle grocery prices, WIC, poverty, tax breaks, Cleveland development, and whether thriving neighborhoods really need more incentives.

As always, expect strong opinions, plenty of laughs, political chaos, and a few detours along the way.

Carrie is back after last week's production mishap, and she and Shana waste no time diving into one of their most political and opinionated conversations yet. After reflecting on the family-filled replacement episode and the realities of podcasting, they tackle everything from Ohio's Democratic primary and the future of the party to local development battles, campaign strategy, and what makes an effective public servant.

The conversation explores whether primaries actually strengthen political parties, why compromise has become such a controversial idea, and the challenges of choosing candidates who may not check every box. They also discuss Ohio's gubernatorial race, Amy Acton, Vivek Ramaswamy, Sherrod Brown, and the growing frustration many voters feel toward both party leadership and modern political discourse.

They also discuss:

• The production mistake that led to last week's family episode and the positive response it received
• Why healthy political primaries create stronger candidates and stronger parties
• Ohio politics, the Democratic primary, and the state's upcoming elections
• Amy Acton, Vivek Ramaswamy, Sherrod Brown, David Pepper, and the search for strong Democratic leadership
• Gerrymandering, campaign fundraising, and why uncontested races hurt democracy
• Cleveland-area TIF incentives, economic development, and whether growth should come at the expense of health and human services
• Local government accountability, city council decisions, and the importance of public participation
• The difference between governing, legislating, and managing large public organizations
• Crooked Media, favorite political podcasts, and what they hope One More Thing can become someday
• Alyssa Milano's viral skincare routine, menopause, online shopping mishaps, and paint-by-number deliveries from China
• A candid conversation about feminism, Gavin Newsom, public figures, personal morality, and whether decades-old personal scandals should influence modern political opinions
• Brothers & Sisters, celebrity relationships, and the complicated intersection of politics, marriage, and public perception
• Wrapping up with back-to-school plans, summer ending, new jobs, vacations, and looking ahead to August.
