Today on the show, America’s Favorite Government Teacher, Sharon McMahon, is here and we are all the better for it. Is there not a more perfect time than now for her to guide us through election season AND talk about her brand new book- The Small and the Mighty: Twelve Unsung Americans Who Changed the Course of History, from the Founding to the Civil Rights Movement.
We also talk about her 14 hour work days, how to navigate all the news sources, voting on policies or character, and why we vote. We are big Sharon fans around here and I know alot of you are too, so I can’t wait for you to hear this one.

Our buddy Eddie Kaufholz is back! If you haven’t been around for a minute, once a month we’re recapping each of the last 10 years in honor of the 10th anniversary of That Sounds Fun, so this month, we’re recapping 2021... but more importantly wow discuss Eddie's college band, signing up for Saturday Night Live tickets, and we also invent a name for those close friends you'd wear no make up around and a 20 year old t-shirt and gym shorts.

Today on the show, get ready to laugh. My longtime friend Lyndsay Rush is here, but you may know her better from her instagram accounts: rushbomb or maryoliversdrunkcousin. Lyndsay is hysterical and found herself writing poems on social media that eventually turned into a book deal, and this week, Lyndsay’s very first book of published poetry releases called, A Bit Much. We talk about getting older, moving, friendships changing, and the gift poetry gives you to think. Lyndsay and I became friends when she first moved to Nashville (over a decade ago) and it’s been so much fun to see her superpower gift of words and wit turn into a book we can hold and read.

Today on the show, my friend Alyssa Bethke is here and you’re in for a treat. Alyssa and her family recently moved to Nashville from MAUI, so we talked all about the transition and what that’s been like and then dug into her latest book, When Doing it All is Undoing You.
Does anyone else get overwhelmed when fall rhythms start back?! We talk about trying to to do too much, holding everything together, managing and controlling our circumstances. What do we do when we start falling apart?
I think you'll really like this one.

A few days ago, I did a question box on my instagram about my dual citizenship between Nashville and New York City, particularly about being in New York since I currently am. One of the questions that was asked was “Have there been any surprising disappointments in this otherwise fun year?”
And while I was able to answer most of the submitted questions on the little one slide of an instagram story, this one deserves a whole episode.
Because yes, while this has been a very fun experience, it has also been very very hard. And disappointing.
If you have thoughts to share, there’s a great place for that on instagram… @thatsoundsfunpodcast. I’d love to hear anything that came up for you in this episode and any suggestions of topics you’d like to hear future episodes about.

Carlos Whittaker...you know him and love him and he’s a Hall of Funner. We’re diving into the project he’s been working on the the past few years. If you don’t follow Carlos on social media and haven’t heard about this, you’re going to be fascinated. Carlos spent 7 weeks away from screens and spent time with monks and amish farmers to see how it would impact his life AND his brain. He’s written all about it in his brand new book, Reconnected AND he’s been working on a documentary of the whole thing. We’re going to talk about all of it today. Buckle up!

Today on the show, one of our favorites is back. Sophie Hudson, also known as Boo Mama, is here! Sophie’s latest book, A Fine Sight to See, comes out tomorrow and it’s all women embracing their role as leaders, so you KNOW we’re going to talk about it today. BUT ALSO College Football has started back, so we couldn't help but discuss that, too.
I think you'll really enjoy this conversation with Sophie who is an author, podcaster, and all around delight of a human. She’s the co-host of the Big Boo Cast with Melanie Shankle and if y’all aren’t listening to them tell the most ridiculous stories, you’re missing out!

It’s election season here in the U.S, y’all, and we’re all trying to navigate the hot topics of the day and how to approach divisive conversations with grace…. and Ashlee Eiland’s latest book, Say Good: Speaking Across Hot Topics, Complex Relationships, and Tense Situations, is just what we need right now. The holidays are coming too, and I know that can stir up complicated feelings and family dynamics and all the things. Ashlee is going to be our guide into gracefully walking with people even when we don’t agree with them. This is such a needed conversation, and I think you’re really going to love this one.

Today we’re talking about how the enneagram helps you self regulate to connect and grow in parenting, dating, and other relationships. Beth McCord, better known as Your Enneagram Coach, is here and her latest book, Enneagram for Moms, which released this summer. Its such a helpful tool for trying to better understand yourself and better understand how you interact with your children. Whether you’re raising your own kids, leading a classroom of them, loving on nieces and nephews, or being a spiritual mom to the miniBFFs in your life, I think you’re really going to find this one helpful.

Today on the show, we’re talking all things 2020 with our friend, Eddie Kaufholz. I know y’all have been asking about a recap of the Ryman show with Eddie, but we’re saving that for that actual anniversary week of That Sounds Fun which is in November... although we couldn't help ourselves to talk about it a little bit! But Annie and Eddie Keep Talking got started in 2020, so you KNOW today we are chopping it up about the weird, sad, and nostalgic days that year. What a wild time.

Today we’re talking about something we LOVE to dig into around here: unplugging from all of the noise. My friend Hannah Brencher is joining us and her latest book, The Unplugged Hours, comes out in September so we’re going to talk about how we do all of this well. We even recorded a little bonus conversation just for Single Purpose League to talk about the nuances of being single, but also needing to disconnect and unplug and how to feel safe and secure when we do that. I think you are going to find this convo really helpful!

I loved getting to know Dr. Jackie Greene and what God has been doing in her and through her. Her brand new 90-day devotional, Remain in His Love, would be a perfect one for you to pick up as we establish some new rhythms this fall. I think you’ll really love the book and this conversation with Jackie. We talk all about the spiritual discipline of fasting, our role in the discipleship process, and the importance of journaling. You know I much I always LOVE getting to talk about prayer and fasting!

Y'all just aren't READY for this episode. Jack Mooring is a pastor, speaker, songwriter, and author, but maybe my favorite role Jack plays is Brother Terry on Instagram. Y’all, if you haven’t watched his Brother Terry videos, I NEED YOU TO. Today we're talking about hearing God's voice, finishing well, and some of our favorite influential people in the Christian faith. Jack’s brand new book, Portrait of God is beautiful and so helpful. I think you’re really going to love getting to know him.

You’re in for another fun one today! I get to talk with my friend, Demi-Leigh Tebow. She was JUST with us at the Ryman on Sunday too and if you were there, you know it was a blast. Having Demi on the pod is such a treat and I'm so thankful for her! We're talking all about having an identity taken away, the importance of community, and her brand new book, A Crown That Lasts. GAH. This book is such a great read and I know you're going to love sharing it with your friends!

Oh I am so happy to have my friend Megan Fate Marshman on the podcast talking all about her new book Relaxed: Walking with the One Who’s Not Worried About a Thing, being a female teaching pastor, and trusting in the Lord. This one is so good, y’all. Megan's teaching on Heaven is so moving and thoughtful. What a beautiful conversation with a beautiful friend.
If you’re in Single Purpose League, we recorded a short bonus conversation with Megan about widowhood and being a single mom that we saved and are dropping in Patreon for you today as well. It’s all over at singlepurposeleague.com.

We originally recorded this episode just for our friends in Single Purpose League, but as soon as we finished, Katy and I knew this one needed to be for everyone. We want to invite you to the conversations we're having with Single Purpose League, because a) a ton of you know and love unmarried people in your life and want to know how to better understand what they're walking through, and b) registration for Single Purpose League is open again and we'd love for you to get this sneak peek into what our conversations are like!
In Single Purpose League, one of our goals is to answer the questions, "What's our single purpose and what's our purpose while single?" We're six months into building this houseboat together, and in this episode, we have a really honest conversation about our purpose. Are we clear on what it is? What's it like to live out our purpose on our own? Does our purpose change if we get married?
Single Purpose League is also open again for new friends to join, so if there's someone you know who you think would benefit from this group, share this episode with them and find out more at singlepurposeleague.com!

The one. The only. Mrs. F. Downs is IN THE HOUSE. It’s bring your mom to work day and I could not be more excited for us to sit down and talk to the founder of Whole30, Melissa Urban. You know we love talking about spiritual, emotional, and physical health around here and Melissa's latest book The New Whole30 is so helpful! Since my mom and I both have experienced the goodness of Whole30, I thought it would SO fun for us both to share our stories and ask Melissa our questions. Is Mrs. F. Downs my new favorite co-host?! (sorry Eddie...)
