PLAYLIST FOR “MOMSPLAINING” (5.8.21)

By now everyone knows what “mansplaining” is, right? God knows I’ve explained to my audience a million times. To celebrate moms and Mother’s Day, I played a couple hours of music, advice, and observations entirely from a mom’s point of view. In other words, Momsplaining.
