114 - Have You Seen This?

Yasss, Queens! Welcome back to the Midlife Cry, Sis podcast! We recorded this episode live (in Mary’s car, with not great clip-on microphones), and fought a little with the technology (“always and forever”), so please excuse the audio quality. If you’d like to watch us on YouTube, check it out here! 

 

Mary and Alexis went to see Six the musical at the Eccles Theater in Salt Lake City and we LOVED IT. It’s a retelling of the story of Henry VIII from the perspective of his wives, as a “historemix.”

 

Mary is also in the middle of Harry January (her annual re-reading/watching of Harry Potter). Check out our list of Midlife Cry, Sis Book Recommendations here on Amazon.

 

We talk a little about competition, and how we are often comparing our traumas and difficulties to those of other people. We also have to talk about The Other Boleyn Girl movie and The Tudors dramatized series (TV-MA) (stream it here on Amazon Prime).

 

Here's a little sample of this conversation:

 

M: “Have you watched the Tudors?”

L: “I want to. I want to so bad.”

M: “Oooh. It’s a little bit spicy.”

L: “Oh good.”

M: “Tell you what. Henry Cavill . . .”

L: “I do not know who that is.”

M: “Superman.”

L: “I still don’t know who that is.” 

 

Mary also talks about a gorgeous pen set that was gifted to her from a friend. You can find them here on Amazon. And if you’d like to see our special shirts from Austin, please visit our Patreon page! Support starts at just $5/month.

If you have any suggestions for what to call ourselves instead of the Bettys, let us know. We kind-of like the “Cry-Sisters” or “Cry-Queens,” but we are definitely open to feedback. And thank you for bearing with us as we figure out this whole rebranding thing!
