Lian Dolan and Julie Dolan of the Satellite Sisters recap the latest episode of the CBs drama Madam Secretary. Season 3, Episode 3:  South China Sea   Alternate titles:  Battle of the lapel pins The President Leaves the Oval Office Catfishin’ Panda Diplomacy China Blinks What the heck is going on with our fridge?   Storylines:   Activists captured in South China Sea and China vows to make an example of them. It’s LOST! Oh, no it’s not China also pretends to own everything in the South China Sea. And if you like me were wondering what happens in the South China Seas, the Wonk Team comes up with some facts and figures.        Panda Talk—did it seem like someone in the writers room just discovered the Panda cam and decided to write a whole episode about it? Fine with that—but lots of Panda talk.      Crazy Henry and the Spooky Fridge Henry and Bess make the bed. And fight about former student who made threats. And putting on pillow shams.. at one point, Henry starts mansplaining mental illness and stalking. To Bess. Who was in the CIA. Henry runs with his theory that a former student is the one threatening an terrorizing the family. The FBI not that helpful—or so it seems. Until they are and Henry almost blows the whole deal.      See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sheila, Monica, Julie and Liz tackle the world one cup of coffee at a time: Sheila and Liz have a complete report on Bruce Springsteen in Los Angeles.  Sheila went Thursday night.  Liz went Friday night.  It's tempting to just get on that Wrecking Ball tour.

Julie has a major Commencement today.  The English language students she's been teaching have their big graduation ceremony. It's a moment to reminisce about Dolan family graduations gone by.  There was a definite protocol that developed over the years. Monica has a medical update from last week. Turns out its true that mustard and picke juice are good for you. Who knew? Sheila reviews Darling Companion.  Doesn't love it.  Could it be that she's not a dog lover? Liz teaches her parents how to get Movies On Demand from their cable box.  She's not hopeful that the lesson stuck. Julie has quick news update on North Korea,  Three words: Don't Be Fooled.

He has a cat! He calls his mom on the way to work!  Love you. Gotta go. Bye. Let’s talk about the overarching storyline—freeing an American Journalist from the Sudan. He was imprisoned 6 years ago and is now dying with TB. Over the years, DOS has monitored his status but has not been able to do anything.  But the story is told through the lives and eyes of all the folks on the 7th floor... Blake - We all need one. A selfless assistant to a powerful person who loves his cat, his mom and his position.   Nadine- the best.  Everyone’s confidant. Her scene with Mike B- fantastic Daisy- oh no. Pregnant and we don’t find out until the end – but we all know it’s the Spy in Accountings baby Matt- a little bit of writers block- but I loved the way he got himself out of it. Exactly what writers do.  Jay- woo-hoo! Good thing Jay got that couch last week!  And Finally Elizabeth… smaller role, but always the emotional ceneter of the show. Light bulb moment? Check. Prfessional demeanor at all times? Check. Best Boss Ever vis a vis her conversation with Daisy? Check.  At the end when they are all standing there together- a very nice moment. Sob, Sob.  Binders full of Blouses RIP Daisy’s cute dresses. Blake’s natty suits.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.

Liz also needs some film recommendations and has the sisters vote on The Martian vs. Steve Jobs. Julie brings us a fascinating story about the Zappos management philosophy and their self-management approach.  Some sisters are all for it.  Some are skeptical.  What do you think? Meanwhile, she has launched a new tutoring business so she can engage in a little more of her own self-management.  For more information about her new business, you can check here.  She's also got a semi-successful flu shot situation to share. Need a little sensory deprivation?  Julie has a recommendation about some new float spas in Texas.  We urge her to test itself out this week and report back on her findings.  We close with Liz's favorite headline of the week.

Happy Father's Day, Satellite Misters. Fathers, uncles, coaches, mentors - we hope you are all enjoying a wonderful celebration today.  Today's show is a special one from Father's Day 2012.  This was the last Father's Day we spent with our father and it was the end of a difficult week.  Our father's Alzheimer's had accelerated to the point where we decided as a family that he needed to live in a 24/7 care facility.  This was the week when we made that move.  It was an all-hands-on-deck situation in our family with brothers, sisters and family supporters all helping.  Liz starts off with a crazy cops-and-robbers story that had just occurred in the neighborhood.  Nice to have just a little bit of humor in an otherwise very sad and trying week.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today's Satellite Sisters: Julie calls for the end of Easter egg hunts. Is the word "bloodbath" too strong?? She has witnessed her grandchildren getting crushed. Liz and Julie recall some of their own bruising Easter egg battles with their brothers and cousins as kids.  Julie also talks about her relationship with her mother-in-law, who passed away this weekend. It was complicated. Her mother-in-law never liked her. Now in death, there is grief, sadness and ambivalence.  Liz sees some dangerous trends developing in her neighborhood. It's gone beyond blow-dry bars and nail salons. The latest scourge is the new lash lounge. Don't people have better things to do with their time and money?  Liz is taking Lian and her sons to a table read for The Simpsons. They are very excited and don't care that Julie blames The Simpsons for the downfall of American culture.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today's Satellite Sisters, Liz Dolan and Julie Dolan make a plea for civility online in all things election-related. Comments bring out the worst in people, so we are asking you to think twice before lashing out. Far be it from us to ask you not to express yourself, but start by asking yourself this one question:  Has your mind ever been changed by what someone posted in your Facebook feed?  No? Exactly. So express yourselves freely but no need to be uncivil. Okay, people??  Julie also speaks out on behalf of the potential First Ladies one more time. It won't be the last.  We are very excited about the upcoming Olympic Games!  Lian and Liz will be attending #Rio2016 starting next week but first we have some comments on the Opening Ceremonies outfits for the USA, the best Olympic sibling story ever and Nastia Liukins beauty tips for the Games.  Can we avoid wedgie picks?  Will our fingernails be expressive enough? And what's our lucky charm?   Why should we care about doping at the Olympics? Read this fascinating story about Olympic swimmer Shirley Babashoff who was cheated out of Olympic gold medals by East German women at the Montreal Games in 1976. Julie and Liz discuss how it changed her life forever.  Yesterday was Equestrian Day at Nana Camp in Steamboat Springs, CO.  Julie had a slight saddle situation.  It sound like a cartoon but she survived it.  On cultural front, we tackle the new Jason Bourne movie and how it compares to the earlier versions, the new production of CATS on Broadway and Harry Potter hits the West End in London. Listen to our show this Tuesday August 9 because Lian Dolan will be back for our complete Olympic kick-off show.  This is the day before Liz and Lian leave for #Rio2016 so we'll lay out the complete plan.  It's a good time to subscribe.  Lian and Liz will be covering the Olympics via social media so make sure you join the Satellite Sisters Facebook Group and follow us @satsisters on Twitter and Instagram.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this New to You show from March 14, 2008, we tackle the gubernatorial sex scandal in NY: Eliot Spitzer, former crusading prosecutor and Governor of NY, is client #9 in a prostitution ring. Dr. Sheila weighs in on his psychological state: "pathological narcissism". Her diagnosis of this out-of-control politician is sounding so familiar now! Julie puts a number of men "in the doghouse” for insisting that prostitution is a victimless crime including Alan Dershowitz, James Carville, Bill Maher.  The First Ladies Desk has a lot to say about Mrs. Spitzer. That poor woman stood by her man at his press conference and then Dr. Laura Schlessinger of radio fame was all over TV blaming her for not "doing enough to keep her man at home." Shut it, sister. Julie has an International News Round-Up about China, Taiwan and Hong Kong. Entertaining Sheila reviews Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day. Lian explains to her mother-in-law how to listen to a podcast. Ten years later, we still want to help you figure this out! Have you participated in #trypod this month of March 2017? The podcasting community would like you to share the names of the podcasts you love on Twitter with the hashtag #trypod. We'd love it if you recommended Satellite Sisters to you friends and on your social feeds.

Happy Birthday, Lian!  Liz and Monica start the show by wishing youngest sister Lian a happy birthday.  She started the day with a mad dash to the drugstore to get Benedryl for her son's bad allergic reaction.  Let's hope the day gets better from there.  Then discussion turns to Macchu Picchu, malaria pills and more.  Monica has a suggestion about carry-on luggage that dumbfounds us (and probably the TSA.) Meanwhile, she waits for the official word that this year she finally DID score the HGTV Dream House! Lian's more focused on winning the Downton Abbey sweepstakes. And Liz wants your suggestions about what she should do on her one day in Mumbai.  You heard that right.  One day. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lian Dolan and Julia Dolan on the Tuesday Podcast. We cover news, fitness, college admissions and PIZZA. That's right, we are going deep on shallow topics- like Pizza. Julie has a theory on why Brooklyn is, in fact, the center of the universe and it has to do with a Pizza box made out of ... PIZZA! this sounds both intriguing and cargo-licious. It also sounds fairly unsanitary to eat a box that has traveled through the borough of Brooklyn. Lian is suspicious, but Julie's makes the case for Brooklyn.    Plus..

Lucky 13! That's right, we are back and embracing 2013 as a new start. Our mother died near the end of 2012 so we are pulling ourselves together. Julie, Liz and Monica are on today's show covering the full range of Satellite Sisters news. Monica reports on her trip to Dallas to visit our father (and Julie) plus they try to solve the mystery of who really screwed up the remote on the upstairs television. Julie has a Trifecta of Tidbits! And she poses a big existential question: what you would really want on your own custom grocery store aisle? Liz unveils her Punchlist for 2013 and provides a progress report. It's getting real. She even bought a helmet. And we anxiously look forward to tonight's Golden Globe Awards. With Tina Fey and Amy Poehler as co-hosts, we actually think of it Golden Globes: Satellite Sisters Edition. Yes, we have a few opinions on who should win, but with those two in charge, we have no doubt we'll be wildly entertained.

To close 2016, we want to celebrate some of our Solid Gold Satellite Sisters. The great podcasts just keep coming! Today, we talk to figure skater/commentator/hair idol Peggy Fleming. Listen and you can hear Satellite Sister Julie Dolan hyperventilate as she talks to her idol. Someone get the smelling salts. Peggy Fleming is as gracious with the Satellite Sisters as she could possibly be. And for that, we send her holiday cheer. Of course, we wanted to dish a little bit on some of the skaters-- but it's clear Peggy Fleming does not operate that way, so we stuck to her standards. You're the best, Peggy Fleming!

At thirty-eight, Lillian Curtis is content with her life. She enjoys her routine as a producer for a talk show in New York City starring showbiz veteran Vi (“short for vibrant”) Barbour, a spirited senior. Lillian’s relationship with her husband is pleasant if no longer exciting. Most nights she is more than happy to come home to her apartment and crawl into her pajamas. Then she’s hit with a piece of shocking news: Her husband wants a divorce. Blindsided, Lillian takes a leave of absence and moves back to her parents’ home in suburban New Jersey. Nestled in her childhood bedroom, where Duran Duran and Squeeze posters still cover the walls, she finds high school memories a healing salve to her troubles. She hurtles backward into her teen years, driving too fast, digging up mix tapes, and tentatively reconciling with Dawn, a childhood friend she once betrayed. Punctuating her stroll down memory lane is an invitation to the Bethel Memorial High School class of 1988 twenty-year reunion. It just might be Lillian’s chance to reconnect with her long-lost boyfriend, Christian Somers, who is expected to attend. Will it be just like heaven? Lillian discovers, as we all must, the pitfalls of glorifying the glory days, the mortification of failing as a thirtysomething adult, and the impossibility of fully recapturing the past. Don’t You Forget About Me is for anyone who looks back and wonders: What if? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today's Satellite Sisters show, Julie buys and unbuys a house. What? Wait. Why? Blame it on the hatch. And no, this is not an episode of LOST. Monica has good news for Julie about parallel parking. No need to ever learn. Monica also has good news for Liz about an unstainable shirt. It's a potential lifesaver for Liz, a lifelong stainer. Liz has a terrifying tale of her ferocious Ferris trapping an unsuspecting painter in her bedroom. Sorry, Steve. It's not the first time Liz has gotten a message at work about a wild animal in her home. Who remembers the tale of the raccoon enjoying life on her living couch? Julie has a movie quiz for the sisters about the new movie Aloha. Despite what you've heard on Rotten Tomatoes,  Julie enthusiastically endorses Aloha.  She calls it  "pleasant" and ""it's not going to kill you." Really makes you want to run right out and buys your tickets, right? Julie's attitude:   A fine movie to see in Texas during a 300 year storm.  Breaking news on Triscuits, people.  Have you heard about Martha Stewart's new flavor?  It's all part of a "celebrity Triscuit" effort.  We've got some ideas about Satellite Sisters triscuits, including Monica's completely breakthrough flavor idea.  So new we can't even write it here.  You have to listen. We are not in business with Triscuits in any way, but we are longtime lovers of the savory cracker. Other items: Mindy Kaling is going to have her own Satellite Sister on The Mindy Project this year.  Yeah. Congratulations, Sister. Paul McCartney has changed his policy on pot.  Thanks, grandpa.

On today's Satellite Sisters, Liz connects with Julie + Lian from Julie's home in Dallas.  Lian's racking up some Frequent Visitor points at Julie's place and shares some compliments and observations on her high level concierge skills!  Plus: As our North Korean expert, Julie speaks out on Dennis Rodman's visit to North Korea.  His reaction seems to have been wildly different from hers when she was there several years ago. Surprised? Liz thinks Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer's new plan to force everyone to work in the office all day Monday through Friday might not be so bad if they didn't also expect you to answer email and phone calls nights and weekends, while Julie think's it's all just a big stunt to make Yahoo feel cutting edge by going back to the future.  Good luck with that. Lian is envious of her husband's "office of the future" which apparently is more advanced than the old Ikea dining room table that serves as her home office.  Fancy stand-up desks?  Isn't that what kitchen counters are for? Plus quick updates on Sheila (Report Cards + Laryngitis), Monica (Dim Sum) and Ferris (Thriving!). And Lian has tips on how to keep up on all the news on her new novel Elizabeth The First Wife coming out in May.  Join her Lian Dolan Author Page on Facebook for the latest.
