Parenting comes with a lot of expectations, but have you ever stopped to ask where they come from? On this episode of This Is Woman’s Work , we unpack the myth of “the good mother” with Nancy Reddy , author of The Good Mother Myth . Nancy shares her personal experience of confronting the unrealistic ideal of motherhood: endlessly patient, always available, and completely selfless. She hilariously and heartbreakingly debunks these outdated ideals, rooted in flawed mid-20th-century research by figures like Harry Harlow and Dr. Spock. Nancy explains how bad science from the past continues to haunt modern parenting, creating pressure, guilt, and shame for today’s mothers. But this conversation is about more than debunking myths—it’s about empowerment. Because when you prioritize what matters and let go of perfectionism, you’re not just doing woman’s work—you’re modeling it.

Victor Vescovo might not be a name you know. But he is, without a doubt, the single most interesting man in Dallas. He even reminds me of the Dos Equis guy in person. When I started this podcast, he was one of the first people that I wanted to interview, and throughout this episode, you'll see why. When thinking about all things Dallas, sure you ha…

Episode #5 is with the major league all-star that (perhaps more than any other player in recent years) was the backbone of the Texas Rangers franchise during their most prominent years in the league — The one and only Michael Young. We talk openly and honestly about his time with the Rangers as a player, and now as a front office exec, where we’ve …

We would add a full description for this episode, but you all know who Mark Cuban is (Shark Tank guy that occasionally dabbles in professional sports in the DFW area). Like episodes past, we go deep into Mark’s history with Dallas — learning things that Corby has never heard about both Mark’s story and the story of Dallas (did you know he almost si…

DFW sports teams are known for their owners perhaps more than any other major sports town. The owner has a 360-degree view of their team’s world in a way that no one else in the organization does — and for Tom Hicks that has meant two different teams (the Rangers and Stars) over the past two decades. From A-Rod to the Stanley Cup, very few individu…

The name Dale Hansen is synonymous with DFW sports media. After nearly four decades of covering each team, each championship, and pretty much each player, the stories this man has is truly unparalleled. Corby and Dale sit down to chat about some of those stories — some of the highs, some of the lows — and it’s rare insight, even for Corby, to hear …

Corby sits down with two of the absolute greats, at the same time — Troy Aikman and Roger Staubach. As Super Bowl winning quarterbacks for the Dallas Cowboys, it’s hard to think of two individuals that have had a bigger impact on the pride and international reputation of Dallas than these two guys, and Corby gets the chance to chat with both of the…
