    The One About Cookie Tables and Cookie’s House

    2026-06-05 | 1h
    This week, Melissa, Jill, and Kelly are catching up on everything from weddings to grandbabies to summer fun! Melissa is back from a wedding and shares all about the Pittsburgh tradition of the famous cookie table. Jill is counting down the days until Riley and baby Chance come to visit "Cookie's House" and talks about wanting to create special grandma memories her grandkids will cherish for years to come.

    The moms also chat about Jill's ever-growing animal kingdom (5 dogs and 2 cats!), the recent conversation surrounding Khloé Kardashian's regret over declawing her cats, and how excited they are that the weather is finally warming up in Pittsburgh. With pool season officially here, summer is in full swing—and so is fruit season! Jill explains why watermelon is more trouble than it's worth, while Kelly proudly shares that she successfully grew a pineapple.

    Prom Queens, Pyramid Scenes & Holiday Weekends

    2026-05-29 | 53 mins.
    This week, Melissa, Jill and Kelly are kicking off Memorial Day weekend with stories, laughs and plenty of throwbacks! With prom season in full swing, the moms look back on their own high school dances and just how different prom was back then compared to today. Kelly admits she absolutely hated high school, Melissa shares the story of borrowing a prom dress she may have never returned, and Jill reminisces about all the drama that came with teenage years.

    Plus, the moms spill behind-the-scenes secrets from one of the most iconic parts of Dance Moms — pyramid. Why did filming those scenes take SO long? What really happened during all those hours in the studio? From producer interruptions to Abby’s endless commentary, they reveal what viewers never saw on TV.

    Dance Moms: Did We Raise a Generation?

    2026-05-22 | 1h 2 mins.
    Jill, Melissa, and Kelly are comparing the way they grew up to the way their kids were raised, and let’s just say…this generation may not know how to write a check, but they can navigate airports better than most adults! The moms talk about how growing up traveling the world through dance shaped their girls in ways they never experienced as kids.

    They also react to fans saying they “grew up with them” on TV and wonder if Dance Moms accidentally helped raise an entire generation. Plus, the moms weigh in on the viral “divorce effect” trend and debate why everyone seems to glow up after a split.

    And of course, they answer one of the questions fans have always wanted to know: did the girls compete with other routines at competitions that viewers never saw on the show? Kelly is also celebrating a birthday!
