  Separate Suppers, AI & Protein Problem 11.09.2026 1t 13min

  Why do married people suddenly feel the need to want the same thing for supper every night? Is supper really just a nightly team-building exercise, or has it become a make-work project no one signed up for? Can someone help me understand why using ChatGPT for a comedy show poster makes you the villain of Facebook, while using Canva is practically a charitable act? How is adding words to our own badly-lit selfie suddenly a threat to civilization! Why does everyone suddenly think they’re a protein expert? Does chewing Swedish Berries count toward your daily intake, or do doctors laugh you out of the room when you admit you thought Timbits had muscle-building powers? Can you build bone density with fuzzy peaches, or is protein just another word for “things that aren’t chips”? Are you prepping for fall by stocking up on cans of soup and searching for the perfect noisy fall coat or is sweater weather all you need to feel cozy? Will you be bingeing Hallmark movies under piles of blankets and is pumpkin pie strictly a one-day affair for you? If you could outsource one annoying everyday task for $5, would you pay someone to do your dishes or clip your fingernails? If you’ve ever wanted to laugh at yourself and your bestie’s tragic fall coat choices or rage against society’s supper rules and the tyranny of noisy winter coats, you belong with Lisa and Sam. Grab your plaid pants, bring the sarcasm, and come join the judgment. It's the messiest, most relatable middle-aged Canadian girl chat you’ll find this side of the Tim Hortons drive-thru.  Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/ishakemyhead You can also find us on: Website www.ishakemyheadpod.com or https://www.womeninmedia.network  Twitter www.twitter.com/i_shakemyhead  Instagram www.instagram.com/ishakemyhead Facebook I shake my head with Lisa and Sam Tik Tok i_shakemyhead Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@ishakemyhead Grab some cool merchandise at https://ishakemyhead.threadless.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

  Whipped Cream, Girl Dinners & Questionable Leftovers 04.09.2026 1t 10min

  Does whipped cream really have a season, or can it be enjoyed all year round? Is there a right way or a wrong way to do “girl lunch” and "girl dinner,” or are we just making up food rules for fun? Do leftovers have a 24-hour expiry, or are we living on the edge by keeping turkey for day two or is it time we admit we just toss them after pretending to care? Why does opening garbage bags have to be so hard, and will the struggle ever end? If you can’t decide which is worse, a trapeze artist with diarrhea or a new dating trend involving sweat and pee, are you even listening to this show? And when did social media become the Olympics of judgy comments about fridge lights, and can Lisa and Sam get a medal for “Most Judged Over Observational Comedy?” Come shake your head with Lisa and Sam on I Shake My Head where leftovers, whipped cream meet Gen X wisdom, relentless giggles, and the ultimate Canadian “sorry not sorry.” Pour yourself a boozy coffee with extra whipped cream, share in the ranting and weirdness, and let’s commiserate over the little things that make us laugh till we snort.

  Fridge Lights, GPS U-Turn & Brad Pitt's Porn 28.08.2026 1t 10min

  Is the fridge light the greatest mystery of modern times or just a conspiracy waiting to be cracked? Is it blind faith to trust the cold glow disappears or do we need hidden camera evidence and a magnifying glass à la Sherlock Holmes? Does your trust in “the lady” in your GPS run so deep you’d make a U-turn on a six-lane Toronto street because she told you to? Is Brad Pitt missing the point of porn, or is he just officially an old man?  Is the World Robot Games fascinating or kind of terrifying for the future of humanity? Are creeping vines on old buildings charming, or just disturbing invitations for bugs (and birds and mice)? Can you trust your Uber driver’s GPS, or do you deserve a discount for giving directions? Is it barbaric to drink cold pop out of a mug, or is a vessel just a vessel? Tune in for an episode packed with donut drama, retail rants, robot races, and the relentless quest to uncover whether your refrigerator is a liar. It’s all laughs, oddities, and just a pinch of chaos so, go ahead and shake your head at the world with Lisa and Sam.

  Slow Walking, Bad Buffets & Zero Sugar Oreos 21.08.2026 1t 14min

  Why do some people power-walk like they're in a marathon, while others prefer a leisurely, scenic saunter? Is life meant to be experienced at top speed, or should we take time to enjoy our surroundings especially if your walking partner’s 10 feet ahead and not looking back? Should junk food like Oreos ever be zero sugar, or is that just a cruel twist of fate for snack lovers? Do hotel breakfast buffets ever get it right, or does mystery ketchup in a communal bowl signal it’s time to order off the menu? Why do grocery shopping trips with your best friend turn into comedy gold and is $50 breakfast delivery a sign you’ve officially given up on adulting? Is it normal to develop a close, affirming relationship…with ChatGPT? Asking for a friend. Are we collectively shaking our heads at Clay Aiken’s facial expressions, kids’ backless shoes, or the latest jean trends demanding wide and loose legs? And, seriously are you fine, or are you FINE (fucking irritated, not explaining)?  Join in for sassy debates, food adventures, and a healthy dose of head shaking at all of life’s wonderfully absurd moments!

  Middle Seat Madness, AI Besties & Sample Standoffs 14.08.2026 1t 3min

  Why is it always the middle seat people who become armrest renegades do the rules of air travel mean nothing anymore? Has your bond with ChatGPT reached slightly scary heights, and did you just admit it’s a better friend than most humans? And does anyone else wonder if you’ll wake up one day to your friend introducing their virtual pal as the next big thing in the friend group chat? Since when did trying every ice cream sample become an Olympic sport like are you competing for gold in Tiger Tiger-tasting, or just determined to make everyone else stand behind your cone indecision for twenty minutes? Why do some animals get to be adorable and others end up on the ugly list? Was God just mixing things up for fun? Do you ever wonder how graffiti ends up on the outside of a bridge, and are you more impressed by the art or their daring acrobatics? Have Meta glasses crossed from cool tech to creepy territory, and is society giving us way too many choices are Gen Xers to blame for anxiety overload? Is “calm your tits” the most cringe phrase out there, or do you have your own word aversions? Think you’ve got answers or just want to laugh with us? Tune in to I Shake My Head with Lisa and Sam, where two Canadian gals ask the questions you never thought to Google and say what everyone’s thinking but probably shouldn’t.

  Fake Steps, Car Concerts & Neck Pillows 07.08.2026 1t 5min

  Is fudging your step count in your head a sign of creative genius or simply self-delusion at its finest? Can solo car concerts uncover your hidden inner rockstar, or are you simply harmonizing (badly) with Tommy Tutone and the Lord as your only audience? Is there such a thing as a “perfect note” or are we still chasing that mythical high from one fluke karaoke moment? Why are people wearing neck pillows through the airport like it’s a fashion statement? And would you ever ride a suitcase that follows you around, Roomba-style? Can you trust the family recipe to turn out right, or are Gen X moms keeping culinary secrets on purpose? Are you ready for the next trendy food combo spicy fruit, anyone? Broccolini as fall’s must-have veggie who saw that coming? Is singing “Happy Birthday” in a restaurant the ultimate embarrassment or is it just dated hoopla? From viral croissant-ice cream hacks to the value of delegating and the nostalgia of Red Rover and dodgeball, this episode dives into the absurdities of everyday life. Tune in for the laughs, questionable advice, and a celebration of the little things (like cherry tomatoes in salads) that have us all shaking our heads.

  Water Bottle FOMO, Messy Lawns & Window Food 31.07.2026 1t 15min

  Is hauling around a giant water bottle now society’s loudest status symbol? Have you ever considered carrying one empty just to fit in, only to worry people would notice you’re faking your hydration? Could you pass the “don’t eat anything served through a window” diet, or do you secretly love “window food” just as it is? What’s your stance on messy lawns and the metaphorical bush do you “trim” for society or dance to the beat of your own weed-whacker? Is the exhaustion real after coming back from vacation, or are you just too good at doing nothing to snap back to real life? Have you tried the viral TikTok Frutees ice cream bars—are they as addictive as people say, or is summer just an excuse for endless treats? Will tart cherry juice actually help you sleep, or is TikTok just trolling another wellness trend? Can we talk about “sharking” the revolting TikTok trend that’s more disturbing than anything you’ve seen before and why does it always come back to needing a good public service announcement for the men of the world? Ready for viral TikTok ice cream confessions, philosophical debates on chocolate bar quality, fierce opinions on Clay Aiken covering ’80s anthems, and a crash course in defending (or abolishing) summer desserts? Will cutting your own T-shirt neckline unlock a new fashion frontier, or is that peril best delegated to your least judgmental friend?

  Baked Potatoes, QR Code Menus & Vacation Meltdowns 24.07.2026 1t 10min

  If potatoes are just vessels, does that mean a loaded baked potato is really just a cheesy, bacon-y salad bowl like, should we be asking for salad dressing on the side too? Were we all brainwashed into accepting QR code menus, is it really hospitality if you’re hunched over your phone squinting at appetizers with your data draining faster than your will to tip? Is packing for vacation just saying "let’s throw buns in a bag and pray nothing goes moldy," and does fighting over who makes coffee count as the ultimate Canadian bonding ritual? Is it just us, or do women actually binge true crime to learn how not to be murdered, and did every stalker doc leave you wondering why the scariest plot twist was women being the stalkers? And, seriously, who names candles “Smoky Sadness” ? Are we buying fragrances or setting up for a therapy session? If privacy had a scent, would it reek of introversion and maple syrup, or just “smells like let’s not talk”? If you’ve ever side-eyed a regifted candle or wondered why Canadian Uber rides include surprise Tim’s runs, you’re gonna want to tune in. Come shake your head with Lisa and Sam a little bit chaotic, a little bit nosy, all real on I Shake My Head, the podcast where midlife madness is totally normal and laughing through it all is a must.

  Arm Flaps, Hotel Eggs & KFC Letdown 17.07.2026 1t 3min

  Why is it that you can leave the house feeling like a million bucks, but the second you catch your reflection sideways in a grocery store freezer door, it's like bam who invited the arm flap to the party? Was there ever a meal more fraught with betrayal than hotel scrambled eggs pretending to be luxury? Why do mediocre eggs taste five-star when you’re shoehorned into a lobby chair with limp sausage beside you and a cup of “free” coffee? Can we talk about KFC nostalgia for a second—when did finger-lickin’ good turn into finger-lickin’ disappointment, and why does co-op chicken suddenly taste like a religious experience? Is it just us, or did they lose the actual Colonel’s recipe and now the secret is just...grease? Is dim sum an adventure in dumplings or a stress test in unfamiliar textures? Did you ever wonder if your problem with bathing suits is really about rogue foam cups, or is it simply life in the big-busted lane? Is there a conspiracy brewing in the design of low, low, low public toilets, or is it just gravity reminding you you're 57? Can you remember a birthday without Facebook, or is every annual notification a lifeline to friendship? Stirrup pants, neon knit, shoulder pads, and bell bottoms are these fashion nightmares or evidence that you’ve survived the wildest wardrobe decades? From root beer floats to water shoes, from pre-vacation fights to post-vacation bandages, one key theme rises above: shake your head, laugh at the mayhem, and savor the joys and absurdities of life, arm flap and all, with Lisa and Sam.

  Toaster Strudel, Painted Toes & Elevator Judgement 10.07.2026 1t 12min

  Are toaster strudels a legitimate emotional support food, or just a fleeting phase? Can breakfast pastries really be considered a hobby or even a masterpiece? Do your toes disappear when you try a new polish color, and would you ever make a million selling feet pics? Do you shake your head at people who can't exit elevators efficiently, or those who overshare in awkward public spaces? Is filming every real-life intimate moment for reality TV a step too far, and is watching couples on boats getting frisky really what you signed up for? Did a headline about a pastor “sucking out demons” leave you gasping or giggling? Are you side-eyeing Adam Sandler officiating celebrity weddings while eating leftover Taylor Swift pastries? Does small talk in the grocery checkout drive you crazy, and does coffee after supper push you into full-on “old person mode”? And just what do fish do if they get thirsty are these the questions that keep you up at 3 a.m. too?

  Midnight Peeing, Purse Shame & Receipt Hoarding 03.07.2026 1t 8min

  Ever reach your breaking point with your purse? Why does your handbag become a black hole the second you're at the grocery checkout? Is it stuffed with crumpled receipts, rogue lip balm, and mystery mints or are you one of those annoyingly organized people? Why does waking up to pee every hour suddenly feel like an Olympic event? Who put your bladder on the midnight shift, and why can't tea just be comforting instead of a full-blown diuretic? Are your hands and neck aging faster than your face? Is dim sum only for brunch? Why are couch naps elite but bedtime sleep impossible? And when did getting out of a tankini become a full-body workout? This week, Lisa and Sam are talking about purse shame, midnight peeing, aging, dim sum debates, closet clutter, summer struggles, Clay Aiken, and one revenge story that proves some people should never be underestimated.

  Sour Candy Regrets, Gorilla Glue & Tankini Trauma 26.06.2026 1t 14min

  Can eating too many sour candies actually break your tongue, or are you team “powered through the pain” like Lisa? Is the real tragedy a red tongue, or having a friend who refuses to show proper sympathy unless, of course, you need someone to point out it’s all your own fault? Who posts those pictures to Facebook with pants still on and expects applause? Can anyone explain the tankini dilemma. How are you supposed to get it off without dislocating a shoulder, and why do we always need a friend to help us hike up our straps so the “girls” don’t take a tumble on the way to the lake? If you caught your spouse cheating, would you gorilla glue their butt cheeks together? Why aren’t we more afraid of mosquitoes, the world’s deadliest creature? Is ramen really a soup or just cheesy noodles in disguise, and should KD ever become anything but classic mac and cheese? Should the theme song of a beloved Gen X classic like The Littlest Hobo ever be changed, or is nothing sacred anymore? Are kids today doing more at age five than you ever did, or are we just pining for some good old-fashioned common sense? Are “moody bitches” really just telling it like it is, or should everyone admit that nobody can be rainbows all the time? Why do birth rates keep dropping, is it too much phone time, or are we all just happily under-babied? For all these pressing questions and to witness some classic Canadian nostalgia, social commentary, and seriously petty snack debates tune in for laughter, friendly mockery, and plenty of reasons to keep shaking your head at life’s never-ending parade of WTF moments.

  Panties, Salmon Burgers & Deviled Dills 19.06.2026 59min

  Did you know putting on panties could land you in physio like, is there an age when your underwear should come with a warning label. And is there a secret instruction manual for midlife hips, or are we all just freestyle skating through our drawers, hoping gravity isn’t the enemy today? Lisa LOVES salmon. Bake it, grill it, cedar-plank it, she's in. But turn that beautiful piece of fish into a patty, slap it on a bun, and suddenly it's a hard no. A salmon burger is where she draws the line. Why take perfectly good salmon and compress it into a hockey puck?  Could someone explain why everyone’s putting devilled eggs inside dill pickles now? Did we lose a bet with the internet, or are pickles launching some kind of covert snack uprising? Is there some secret rivalry for event sweater snazziness at your office like, if your co-worker ups their game, do you immediately need a “dressy t-shirt,” or is it fine to just keep recycling your “generic black and white” like a true Canadian on a budget? Why does every burger photo look like a supermodel and then your smash burger shows up looking like it fell off the bus at Moose Jaw? And why are fast food joints sneaking thick-cut onions into everything?  Have you found yourself unable to commit to cleaning? Deciding that as long as your house looks clean, deep-clean feelings can totally wait until September? What’s the etiquette for holding the door for strangers? Are you a long door holder or a swift door slammer? Ready for more mayhem, oversharing, and the kind of laughter that makes you snort at the Shoppers checkout?

  Quicksand, Ravioli & Irrational Fears 12.06.2026 1t 7min

  Wait, so ravioli is just a mysterious little carb envelope? Are we supposed to risk our dinner on a pasta pillow of uncertainty and just trust what's inside? Why can't lasagna just be the truth-teller of the pasta world and why is gnocchi allowed to be potato AND pasta, was one carb not enough? Why did Gen X get saddled with the myth of daily quicksand emergencies and stop, drop, and roll patriotism, seriously, did anyone actually encounter either outside a rerun of MacGyver? Is your irrational fear of snakes in the toilet, or are you more worried about falling down stairs? Should we be challenging each other to an Oreo-off or sticking to our summer V8 cleanse dreams if only for half a day before the Timbits call our name? Have you ever been personally offended by the size or placement of the sanitary disposal bin in a public washroom? Are “discreet” pee panties really discreet, or just a crinkly lie? Do younger people calling you “sweetie” or “hun” make your eye twitch? What's more Gen X, paying with cash or still doing Saturday chores before you can play?  Which is worse: sweaty boobs or sweaty balls? Would you ever eat steak tartare, and did you ever actually use algebra after high school? Why do trendy salads make us work harder than assembling IKEA furniture, shouldn’t Cobb mean you can just eat it, not build it? If you’re nodding along or rage-laughing in traffic, this is your tribe! Join us on I Shake My Head, with Lisa and Sam, where we try not to manifest snake attacks, survive crinkly pee panties, and serve up midlife mayhem extra spicy.

Has the buffering wheel on your computer ever made you feel personally attacked? Are middle-aged women everywhere about to band together and take over the world one broken grocery bag at a time? Is a “dirty soda” with cold foam the next big trend or simply a reason to say, “No thanks, I’ll just have a sip”? Can the Carpenters’ lyrics really be the answer to any bad day, or is “apple bottom jeans” now the official soundtrack of existential despair? If you could make one nasty habit socially acceptable, would it be the public sniff, the ceremonial burp, or are we crossing into “blow-your-nose-for-the-loves-of-all-that’s-holy” territory?  Have we officially graduated to a “fuck it” list, crossing off travel, passwords, and change with a triumphant wave of the hand? Is “man spreading” the male power pose or just a dominance display crowding our collective airplane armrest? Why do men get to air out their yellowed, crusty toes in the waiting room like it’s a right? Do they get a free pass for gnarly feet just because they can’t find the nail clippers, or did we miss a rule in the Canadian Constitution? Come hang out with “I Shake My Head,” let Lisa and Sam walk you through every ridiculous, unfiltered, and utterly Canadian midlife moment. This episode?

  Crop Tops, Patio Creeping & Braless Freedom 29.05.2026 1t 14min

  Is the return of wide-leg pants and crop tops helping you relive the glory (and fashion confusion) of the '90s, or just reminding you of those hefty brown velour couches and turquoise Navajo décor? Do you spy on passersby from your patio while cursing trucks that block your prime people-watching view only to realize you’re being watched, too? Craving frozen booze-infused gummies but unwilling to do the work should someone launch a pop-up from the liquor store parking lot? Is a bra optional over 50, or is the world just better when everything’s strapped in? Does talking about fossilized dinosaur eggs spiral into a philosophical debate about whether the Flintstones really were a documentary?  Are your taste buds evolving as you get older, or are you just eating too many dill pickle chips? Can you really quit hot dogs or is that summertime blasphemy? Are emojis especially the thumbs up and prayer hands really upsetting the younger generations, or do we just love minimizing conversation? Is sleep now a competitive sport with mouth tape and magnesium sprays, or can anyone just raw dog sleep anymore? And finally, if you only got one piece of modern technology, would you give up your phone, coffee maker, or both? It's the midlife crisis podcast where ice makers, tomato sandwiches, and government postcards all spark epic debates because in this zany world, you don’t just shake your head…you laugh until you cry!

  Weather Obsessed: The New Midlife Personality 22.05.2026 1t 14min

  Have you developed a whole second midlife personality dedicated to weather commentary? Are you morphing into your 80-year-old dad, texting weather warnings nobody asked for? Will three different weather apps give you the answer you want, or can your sore hip predict storms better than radar? Is "Jessica" the new "Karen," and will pitiful "Peter" ever escape the ridicule? Are AI chatbots your therapist, assistant, and best friend, or just one more way to get questionable affirmations? Will pancakes ever dethrone French toast, or are you still team Belgian waffle? Why the sudden popularity of pickle pizza and when did cucumbers become celebrities? Would you rather keep your phone or your coffee pot forever, and is it actually a compliment if someone says, "You haven’t changed a bit"?

  Bruschetta, Boxed Wine And Stupid Mistakes 15.05.2026 1t 10min

  Have you ever realized an urgent bruschetta craving could qualify as a full-blown crisis? Is “bruschetta on the brain” a real condition—and should snack fixations come with emotional support? Do you judge wine drinkers by the glass, the bottle, or the pure chaos of box wine? (Especially the kind that tastes like a “UTI urine sample.”) Have you ever lost your keys, overpaid your credit card three times, then found comfort in a dusty Werther’s from the bottom of your desk basket? Are fruit cup seals designed to explode juice everywhere, or are we all just getting clumsier? Are you eating organ meats in 2026, or are you firmly Team KD and Pop Rocks Timbits—preferably the red ones? Has Miracle Whip changed, or are our middle-aged taste buds revolting? And would you ever order soup off Facebook Marketplace… or is that an immediate hard no? Is finding a burger that’s good but not too burgery the quest of our generation? And when did “girl-sized” become the ultimate food revolution? Can Facebook memories and AI bring back loved ones, or is it all getting a little creepy? And why is breakfast basically dessert pretending to be a meal? Tune in for food drama, nostalgic laughs, random debates, and proof that adulthood is mostly just surviving one ridiculous crisis at a time. Grab your friendship passes and a firecracker Timbit, and shake your head along with Lisa and Sam.

  White Panties, Dolly Parton & Patio Season 08.05.2026 1t 8min

  Why do panties come in packages with one rogue white pair? Is it the ultimate confidence test or just a disaster waiting for a splash of coffee, a loose laugh, or a bad period day? Is Dolly Parton allowed to age, or do we all need her to outlive us? Does a patio "reward" still count if you come home dirtier than when you left? Do you puzzle over why cupcakes are forbidden breakfast when muffins are celebrated? Are grocery prices so high you’re now contemplating selling your poop for extra cash? Is it a weird game show where everyone's losing? Ever lost your cool at Tim Hortons because someone in line is reading the menu like it’s poetry? How many years of life does it take before you're officially allowed to shake your head—aggressively—in public lineups? Who do we have to petition to bring back potato skins and proper steak cuts at restaurants with side plates, not side glances? Are you mourning the end of the McDonald's self-serve pop era, even if you never actually refilled your drink? Grab your seat for I Shake My Head with Lisa and Sam: exasperated lines, accidental fashion crimes, snarky wisdom, and snack confessions, all delivered with eye-rolling humor and roaring friendship.

  Appetizer Angst, Hormones and Adult Lunches 01.05.2026 1t 12min

  What even is an “adult lunch”? Is a frozen meal equal to a sandwich and do chips count as a side or the whole plan? Would you be annoyed if your doctor refused to test your hormones because you’re “not there yet”? Why do women still have to fight so hard to be heard even by other women? And appetizers…why is ordering them always this stressful? Is it too much to expect better-than-average, or are we doomed to appetizer angst forever? Meanwhile, Lisa and Sam go head-to-head over their out-of-control digital lives. Inbox at 90%, storage full, who's actually going to delete something first? Or will “snack and scroll” win again Plus where are women over 40 supposed to shop? Everything is either too young, too frumpy, or mysteriously cropped. Are we going classy, comfy…or quietly giving up? And one more thing who decided double-flushing in public bathrooms is optional? Because…absolutely not. If you’ve ever questioned modern life, your wardrobe, or your lunch choices—this episode is for you. Expect relationship roasts, wardrobe woes, snack debates, and plenty of midlife head-shaking from Lisa and Sam.  Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/ishakemyhead You can also find us on: Website www.ishakemyheadpod.com or https://www.womeninmedia.network  Twitter www.twitter.com/i_shakemyhead  Instagram www.instagram.com/ishakemyhead Facebook I shake my head with Lisa and Sam Tik Tok i_shakemyhead Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@ishakemyhead Grab some cool merchandise at https://ishakemyhead.threadless.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.
