Liz Dolan, Lian Dolan and Julie Dolan on this week's Satellite Sisters podcast. This week on the show, we discuss college reunions pros and cons. Can you really go back again? And if you go back again, should you join a flash mob with Janet Yellen? Or attempt a radio show? Maybe not, people.  Julie is following the latest on President Trump's openness to meet with "smart cookie" Kim Jong Un. She speculates on the perfect place for such a meeting. Meanwhile, Princess Charlotte has turned two and we love her mom's photo of her. She may be fourth in line to the throne but that's the world's cutest sweater. And did you hear the details of how Brigitte Trogneux met her husband Emmanuel Macron? Unusual. Lian shares some information about Netflix's 13 Reasons Why and some advice on talk to your teens and preteens about suicide and this show. Julie recommends the movie Their Finest as smart, funny, sad and sentimental. Watch for it locally. And Lian will be moderating a great Pasadena Magazine Women in Business panel with some very accomplished women in media. Hear all about it on the podcast and buy tickets here On Operation Sea Turtle, Liz's heath and fitness plan, she provides the Moment of Truth episode. Two moments: 1) her annual physical and weigh-in and 2) an observed moment of sisterhood in her water aerobics class. Here's a terrible cycling hospitality idea that none of the Dolan sisters will ever sign up for, but if this is your tribe, knock yourselves out.  To hear Liz's new podcast I Hate My Boss, go here.

Cell Phones? We thought this was about the law! Plus she has a theory about how the decision will come out. Sheila tells us a little more about her daily patterns around Pasadena. There's a new stop in addition to her usual Vons, BofA and Zushi Sushi. And Liz missed all the lottery and Supreme Court excitement this week, but did experience to total happening in Barcelona. She's not one to let a little light rioting spoil a good time.

Lian Dolan and Julie Dolan of the Satellite Sisters recap the most recent episode of the CBS drama Madam Secretary.  This episode was called convergence and yes, we had the doomsday storyline and the CIA mole storlyline coming togthere. But really, I think for most of us, it was the convergence of Cupcake Wars and Tim Daly’s broken legs.  Storylines: The search for the CIA mole and the missing stinger missiles and a guy that was clearly inspired by Ken Bone.  In the middle of this storyline, we get a mob lawyer who barges into Bess’s house somehow and she watches a lot of Cupcake Wars.  Duck Dynasty Doomsday—Ian the agent we don’t really care about is being drugged. But WhatEvs. Then Henry gets shot at and we finally get the answer to how with the writers include Tim Daly's actual broken legs into the show.  The extinction of the Black Rhino in Nambia—Bess puts out a challenge for all DOS empolyess: come out with an out of the box  solution. An analyst on the global health desk rises to the challenges and it involves Viagra. Erection jokes follow.  Father- son storyline about building henry’s childhood toy and Jason joining in, but only as he wants. By watching YouTibe videos and reporting back.  A few observations:  I don’t trust Captain Baker. Something about her. Loved the scene where Bess promoted the young woman who came up with the Viagra solution.  Nadine and Mike B—let’s see more of that. Binders full of blouses: We had a lot of repeats this week which is how real women dress, so that’s cool.  Julie loved the fresh eyewear.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Break in Diplomacy  Let’s play, Who’s the inspiration? Hmm, let see, who were the writers at Madam Secretary thinging about when they wrote this episode?  Thais was a serious episode featuring serious themes and a world leader known for being a rough around the edges narcissitic businessman who ran an usual campaign and has a history of lewd behavior and corrupt business dealings with an unusually close ties to a country that was a former foe.  If you guessed the Phillipines, you guessed right! Actually, that is the reputation of the ACTUAL president of the philipines Storylines: Sock it to me, Bess or Let Them Eat Drones The Singapore Exchange – a meaningful territorial accord with Asia Pacific. She ends up getting in a fist fight with a a dirty and dirty Philipine leader, forcing her to decide – like evry woman ever—should she say something?

Can she live on GAP and Starbucks cards alone? Lian has some Hot Property premium real estate in the $18 - $30 million dollar range to discuss because David Beckham and Posh are looking for a new home in LA. Sheila and Monica prepare to cover the Spirit Awards on the blue carpet. They love the independent spirit! Sheila was way ahead of her time in her love of Ryan Gosling.  It’s Awards Season so Lian reads some of the great listener letters we have gotten from you for awards you think you are a shoo-in for! Congratulations! Monica has some new product reviews to share, plus a plea for one simple thing in grocery stores: customer service! What happened to all the people in the deli department? Hellooooooo? Kentucky Fried Chicken fish sandwich?? Maybe. Cars that come with safety kits? Yes, please. Lavender scented tires? Not so much.  At 1 hour and 13 minutes in, we interview Laura Sessions Stepp about high school and college girls. She wrote a book called Unhooked: How Young Women Pursue Sex, Delay Love and Lose At Both. There’s frank discussion of hooking up and oral sex so be aware if you are listening with your kids.

This is a New To You show from January 20, 2007 with Lian, Sheila and Liz. Sheila's just back from a vacation in NYC and has tales to tell. Lian has a child development study on the effect of praise on kids. We interview Jake Halpern about his new book Fame Junkies and his research about how desperate many American's are to be celebrities. We just don't get it. In this discussion, we end up talking about a guy we all think is overly obsessed with being famous. His name was Donald Trump. How could we have known on this show 10 years ago where we'd be today! Plus we introduce a new segment called Look What I Found! Think of it as adult show + tell. All three sisters have things to share.
