I SHAKE MY HEAD
Hosts Lisa Gibson and Samantha Sperling have been friends for more than twenty years. On their weekly podcast, they share their daily trials and tribulations navigating life as impatient, occasionally judgemental middle-aged white women. In their mid-fifties, they are proud to admit that they lost whatever social filters they once had years ago. Every week, they bring conversations to their digital studio that they probably shouldn’t share on the internet. They’ll explore how annoyed they are about aging while celebrating their quirks. But, be careful if you see them in line at Costco; they’re most definitely judging what’s in your cart, how you pay for it, and it might even come up on next week’s episode. Case and point, I SHAKE MY HEAD. Join Lisa and Sam for a weekly conversation without filters from a duo that has no trouble admitting they’re probably not politically correct. They invite you to join a collective of middle-aged women who have lots to complain about, but prefer to do it in good company!

They Hate Alf?
Friday Jan 29, 2021
Friday Jan 29, 2021
Things always get weird when Lisa and Sam start off with bad singing. It gets worse when Sam mentions she watched the biopic of Salt n' Pepa over the weekend. If only they were in sync and in tune! Lisa uses big adult swear words to describe the frigid temperatures in Saskatoon while Sam agrees it isn't fair that the kids don't have to go to school but the adults have to go to work! Tuesday's facebook rocked Lisa's world when it became clear no one liked Alf! Her feelings were hurt and claims her heart will never be the same. It's a dark day when Lisa and John bond over their love of Alf. She had hoped that the listeners would hate Sam's favorite Little House on the Prairie more. Nope! They move past this to chat about Lisa's new glasses, Larry King, Fitbit Bitmojis, Lisa's question corner, Neil Diamond, egg salads bad rap, Budweiser, Dan Levy and SNL, Checkers the dog, MyPillow, liquid paper, a new Boom Baby Bakery item, To Tell The truth, The Wall, cleaning, bathrooms, Why did they make that, PBLT, seatbelts, Friends, pickled brussel sprouts, Urban Cowboy, Diana's chef and things Lisa ought to know! The ‘I shake my head’s’ are all about bad toilet paper and nosey TV's! It's just a bit of ridiculous chatter but it might just make you laugh!If you love what you hear you can support the podcast by following the links below!Podlink: https://pod.link/1232121527 (pod.link/ismh)Podbean: https://patron.podbean.com/ismheadPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/ishakemyheadYou can also find us on:Twitter www.twitter.com/i_shakemyhead Instagram www.instagram.com/ishakemyheadBuy our merchandise at www.ishakemyhead.threadless.comWe are proud to be a part of these networks: www.podfixnetwork.com

Friday Jan 22, 2021
Sam's staycation is in full swing, bad hips and all. Lisa is the queen of staycation and could teach Sam a thing or too! Sam is living wildly through snacks during her staycation. It took everything Lisa had to not stay home and watch the inauguration, thank god for PVR's. She is only part way through it but knows it's a gooder! So many great women showed up to the inauguration, JLO stole the show, Michelle Obama was the boss and Amanda Gorman embodied the late great Maya Angelou! Lisa wonders how we rank up against these women and Sam is brutally honest and says 'we don't'! The ladies are still convinced Kelly Ripa is listening to the podcast and all they want is a quick shout out. Is that too much to ask for? Lisa knows we aren't a food podcast but she is missing restaurant food especially wings, mmm the sauce. She shares her new knowledge of butterscotch vs caramel and asks the burning question what's the difference between a fair and a circus. It really comes down to the smells! Lisa has a few questions she needs answers to like, why so many pastas and how come squirrels can remember where they hide their nuts but she can't remember where she puts her keys? Good questions Lisa! Sam brings up Wendy, Winnie the Pooh day, why do women cut their hair after a break up, Harry and Meghan’s deal with Netflix and FB Tuesday’s all about the thrills! Lisa has convinced herself that she can beat Bobby Flay. Her signature dish is meatloaf and believes her cooking skills are on fire because Mike said the shake n bake wasn't over done! Sam thinks she is nuts but Lisa thinks her new calling could be stew or maybe chicken wings! Speaking of awkward situations Sam mentions JT looking weirdly uncomfortable talking about his new child while on Ellen. Dolly Parton turned seventy five and Miley Cyrus jokes on IG that in honor of her bday she is getting Double D's! They question why Graceland is charging one hundred dollars for a virtual tour and why Gwyneth's vagina candle exploded in a U.K. home. Sam explains eyebrows and the usefulness of the appendix while Lisa focuses on the pink and blue eraser and pom pom socks. Lisa is curious about smart food, while Sam chats about The Crown, the favorite child, Armie Hammer, Saved By the Bell, Seigfried, Queen Latifa and the Jays blockbuster trade. Sam shares a few things with Lisa that she should know like the newest trend and how to detect a lie. The ladies end with some fun I Shake My Heads which involves nature and mammograms!

It's blustery outside and Sam may have forgotten her name?! Lisa is prepped if the power goes out and of course Sam is taking her chances! Sam has the Popeye chicken sandwich sweats she is obsessed with them!! They ladies are not a political podcast but you can't ignore what's going on. So Lisa shares her thoughts via Kelly Ripa and wonders do we care as deeply as Mericans. Sam thinks we are influenced by our friends to the south. Lisa heard a rumor that a second impeachment keeps Trump from running for office again. Fake News? The ladies would prefer we don't become copycat Canada and also think it's a sorry not sorry situation. Lisa is America obsessed and your politics keeps her up late at night! Sam is convinced Drew Barrymore listens to the podcast because she copied our phrase!! Can you say copyright infringement?! There is some weird talk about giving inanimate objects nicknames and helping out the turtles?! Lisa has a curious mind so of course she has questions about dish rags, picking a favorite color and peach cobbler. Sam can't believe there is going to be a revival of Sex In The City with out a Samantha and is curious if Lisa would dip her toe in an ice bath. Hey, it's a thing! Lisa is more interested in pancake and waffle charcuterie boards, FB Tuesday's chicken balls, Rod Stewart, yankee candles, Martha Stewart, Lemon groove pop tarts, cornflakes, bikes, poprocks, a new Keurig, throw pillows, cocoa pebbles ice cream, Gorillas with COVID, shopping carts with magnifying glasses and Nicole Kidman vs Kristen Wigg. Sam shares a few things you should know like leggings can give you ringworm and they aren't too worn as work pants! Also anyone who enjoys a good swear word needs to watch The History of Swear words on Netflix, so f@!#ing hilarious!! The ladies end as always with their weekly I shake my heads which everyone can relate to!

Friday Jan 08, 2021
It's just another day in the neighbourhood if your local politicians also traveled over the holidays. Lisa and Sam have very strong opinions about that and Lisa is choked our friends to the south and didn't give her a heads up about the news reels they were about to create! Sam has even bigger and far better news, Wendy Williams biopic is coming out January 30th! She will view it and report back! New Years eve was quiet for the ladies as one watched Ryan while the other watched Andy and Anderson. Sam only stayed up long enough to watch her girl JLO then off to bed she went. Lisa has a request for different songs to play as they count down to the new year. She just couldn't wrap her brain around the John Lennon song Imagine as part of that mix. It's so depressing! Sam mentions the gossip about KimK and Kanye divorcing. They believe she's gonna be fine without him. Lisa's bigger concern is why didn't Holly Hobby and Raggedy Ann and Andy make a comeback. Everything else has been resurrected, why not them? She is also under the delusion she has the voice of an angel and might pursue a career as a bingo caller or sleep whisperer. Honestly, Lisa is too busy figuring out her new iPhone to pick up a new calling! Sam discovers a new treat for her toast called Cinnadust, this leads to chat about the spaghetti fairy, FB Tuesday, making beds, work lunches, favorite Disney dwarf, Megan McCain, Caesar salad, Kelly Ripa and the McRib, a snowball launcher, a retractable stool, churro dipped ice cream, pandemic lazy, Saucemoto clips, Drakes new hairdo, slow cookers, celebrities who lie, aprons, Kit Kat thins, The Best Leftovers Ever cooking show and Lisa the Italian racecar driver! The ladies imagine what their lives might be like in a parallel universe and oddly they don't seem to be friends. Don't fret it's all just make believe or is it?! Take a moment for yourself and listen to us yammer about what makes us shake our heads!!

Friday Jan 01, 2021
Well friends of the podcast it's the last episode of 2020. It's been a bit of a year and Sam is feeling the effects of it while Lisa is lamenting over no more Christmas oranges. The ladies however got to interview the sister duo of Mouse and Weens this week! It was so much fun and they learned a little too much about garden gnomes! Lisa and Sam came to realize that Canadians know a lot more about Mericans than they know about us! On Boxing day the HHG and Lisa ventured out to grab a snack at the food court but the line up was crazy long!! Stupid Covid!! Did you know bananas can tell you a lot about people? According to Lisa, there are different bananas for each kind of person. A green banana is a fit and trim and an all bruised banana means you have let yourself go!! Yes, this came from Lisa's brain!! Sam disagrees and thinks people look like walking skeletons or like their dogs. Whatever floats your boat!! They are talking about Celebrity IOU again but it's because it's so darn warm and fuzzy!! The conversation gets on a role with chatter about Sheila's baking, giving up one TV show, fancy appliances, pigs in a blanket, FB Tuesday, Netflix, Spam fries, The Queen's Gambit, Bridgerton, Buckingham palace, new Boom Baby Bakery item, no more formal room, chimichangas, bra & panties, a peanut butter pump, choose your favorite, rose wine water enhancer, new chocolate milk, cranberries, Butterball helpline, new strain of COVID and it might be time to freshen up the squad! The ladies look back on the year and separate it into the good, the bad, the ugly and always the funny!! They agree on most and well the old argument comes up about who really was the winner of Skip Bo!!

Christmas is two sleeps away and Sam is counting down the minutes. Lisa's attention wanders to why don't we eat more nachos? So much talk about nachos and we aren't sure why. The ladies had a wild night out with the HHG. The wine was flowing, money was getting thrown around and the HHG was dancing in her seat! Lisa returned her new winter coat because really needs something between a med and large. What she needed was a 'mul' which is clothing in a half size. The ski hills are opening with lots of rules and yes Saskatchewan does have hills! Lisa has a new TV obsession; it's a spin off of the Silence of the Lambs called Clarice. Sounds scary! Sam is all over the new HGTV show Celebrity IOU but sometimes the Property Brothers are kind of annoying. The ladies get on a roll as they discuss The Masked Singer, the omni blade, hot water bottles, FB Tuesday, wind up alarm clocks, sprinkles, the youtube show Hot Ones and Lisa's need to be part of it, Cheetos cookbook, new Pepsi flavour, Christmas Eve appetizers, two turkeys, good dishes, cookie bar, bad kid, The Crown, Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee biopic, Barbies, Dick Van Dyke, creole, DRIP, JLO, and Lisa contemplating an iPhone. As the pandemic continues on Zoom dinner parties have become a thing. Lisa and Sam weigh in about zoom etiquette and foods to not eat because they are too messy!!

The mood for this week is take your panic and panic somewhere else. Yup, that's how the week has been friends of the podcast. Sam points out Lisa's inappropriate use of the Lord's name which somehow leads them to determine Lisa is on the B team when it comes to getting into heaven. Dr. Oz says Sam's hot chocolate is a good splurge and he says add marshmallows! Lisa got her 70's groove on late Saturday night watching the Bee Gees HBO documentary. She thinks we would have had a blast at Studio 54! The HHG teased Lisa with a beautiful picture of her charcuterie board. The ladies think she is the perfect hostess that never has anyone over! Lisa thinks her couch has magical sleeping powers and Sam wonders if she will ever nap again. Lisa has a new flavour of mini wheats and wonders if there is such a thing as too much sugar. She boasts about her fancy egg mcmuffin maker which gets the ladies talking about the Egg Bite, a sink dish dryer, no Canadian game shows, a new Jeopardy host, the calendar store, Christmas with celebrities, Tuesdays FB, Action Park documentary, Dionne Warwick, funeral food, Ellen, Sharon Osborne, grated cheese, jelly donuts, free McDonalds food, adults with stuffed animals, smelling burps/farts, the royal podcast, HHG and the wine advent calendar, Feliz Navidad, naked Gingerbread men, Santa's workshop and where are we with Christmas!

For the first time in a really long time Sam got a wee christmas tree, okay its a shrub but it still counts! Who has spirit, Sam does!! Lisa is concerned that she will forget to water the tree and is willing to text to remind her! Sam's next reveal is that she might want a cat. Lisa is team orange cat but Sam is toying with the idea of a black cat. Lisa came across a new breakfast treat, peanut butter banana breakfast cookies. She loves the idea of them but knows nothing about them, of course! Lisa is excited because she finally got her new deck but won't test it because she isn't sure they did it right. Sam wonders about the drawer at the bottom of the stove which leads to them discussing power strips, Rebel Wilson, Laverne & Shirley, Forged in Fire, ketchup puzzle, McDonald's holiday pie, Tuesday's FB, dill pickle bacon cheese ball, triscuits, things you shouldn't store, drinks with attachments, The Crown, KFC Lifetime movie and Jackee Harry. The ladies were so excited to interview director/writer/producer Ron Oliver! His career has spanned many genres and his most recent movie is 'A Timeless Christmas'. He was a total delight and we learned a bit about the behind the scenes of the movie, the story behind Kenny Kwon and we end with a fun game of this and that! It's a bit longer than normal but so worth the listen!! It's just a bit of ridiculous chatter but it might just make you laugh!Ron Oliver’s social media: Instagram - ronoliver, Facebook - Ron Oliver, Twitter - HRHOliver1If you love what you hear you can support or listen to the podcast by following the links below!Podbean: https://patron.podbeancom/ismheadPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/ishakemyheadYou can also find us on:Twitter www.twitter.com/i_shakemyheadInstagram www.instagram.com/ishakemyheadBuy our merchandise at www.ishakemyhead.threadless.comWe are proud to be a part of these networks: www.podfixnetwork.com www.lowtreestudios.com
