Joy & Jinger: Driving at 14, Grandma's Road Rules & Taking a Big Rig to the Dentist
This week on Call Your Sister, Joy and I are talking all things learning to drive. We grew up in Arkansas, where you can get your permit at 14 with a quick written test, and our dad taught us to drive long before any of that. We started on the weed eater, worked up to the lawnmower, then moved on to the golf cart and ATV, and eventually got behind the wheel of a car. We swap stories about our driving tests and our first time on the interstate. We also talk about what it was like to be a new driver (or a passenger with a new driver!) in a 15-passenger van full of siblings, and about the near misses and close calls we've had along the way, including a very close call with a pole in a parking lot just the other day. Then we get into cars. We talk about our first cars, including one I still have, why we're loyal to Toyotas, and Joy's insurance auctions and salvage-title finds that Austin fixes up in their yard. We admit to being terrible backseat drivers and control freaks who volunteer to drive on every girls' trip. We also talk about teaching our own kids someday, from Gideon learning to run a skid steer at eight years old to the viral stories of little kids driving themselves to McDonald's (please lock up your keys!). We finish with our favorite family road trip memories, from Cracker Barrel jawbreakers to the RV trip out west and the dude ranch. If you remember your first time behind the wheel, or you're dreading teaching your own teenager to drive, this one is for you. Topics covered: learning to drive, teaching teens to drive, driving at 14 in Arkansas, first car stories, backseat drivers, driving safety tips, road trip memories, buying cars at auction, growing up in a big family, sisters podcast 🎧 New episodes of Call Your Sister with Joy and Jinger every week.

Joy & Jinger: Wedding Day Secrets & What Wasn't on TV
This week on Call Your Sister, Joy and I are talking all things weddings — the details nobody remembers but felt huge in the moment, the stuff we'd actually change if we could do it again, and the behind-the-scenes reality of getting married while being filmed for TV. I open up about a wedding-day timing mistake that cost us almost all our golden-hour photos and most of our time greeting guests at the reception, plus a moment of people-pleasing I still think about (we sent our favorite band's drummer home so the music wouldn't be "too much" for our guests). Joy shares the wedding-planning battle over her paper airplane send-off idea, the wedding favor almost derailed by a legal technicality, and what it was really like trying to live in the moment on her wedding day while a film crew documented everything — including a tense exchange Austin had with a crew member about whose day it actually was. We also get into what wedding privacy looked like for us — the security check-ins, the magazine exclusives, and the delayed episode airings — and how that shaped habits we still have today, like never posting your location in real time. If you're planning a wedding, already married, or just love hearing what really goes on behind the scenes, this episode is for you.

Did We Fight Ever Fight? Sibling Rivalry in a Family of 19 Kids | Ep.3
This week on Call Your Sister, Joy and I are talking all about sibling rivalry and what it was actually like growing up together in a house full of kids. We get into some of our favorite (and funniest) memories — like Joy's infamous fight with our brother over the school computer, and her reputation as the sibling who'd get talked into doing things she probably shouldn't have. Joy also owns up to being the one who body-slammed and pranked our brothers a little too much growing up! We talk honestly about how conflict was (and wasn't) handled in our house, how birth order may or may not actually shape your personality and temperament, and the ways growing up avoiding conflict has shown up for each of us as adults — including in marriage and parenting our own kids. I share a story about my mom's kindness toward a stranger that shaped how we were taught to treat people, and we dig into people-pleasing, learning to hold your tongue, and figuring out how to disagree with someone you love without it turning into a blowup. If you grew up with siblings, or you're raising kids who are constantly bickering, this episode is full of honest, relatable conversation about family, conflict, and grace. 🎧 New episodes of Call Your Sister with Joy and Jinger every week — SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss out! #Parenting #Motherhood #siblings #sisters #RaisingKids OUR INCREDIBLE SPONSORS: TRUST & WILL: Protect what matters most.

I Farted in Front of My Crush (+ More Awkward Teenage Stories) | Ep.2
This week on Call Your Sister, Joy and I are getting into some seriously embarrassing territory: our awkward teenage phase. We're talking bad fashion choices (hello, giant hand-me-down t-shirts and my infamous green linen tunic-over-skirt look — the one I was wearing the day I met Jeremy), disastrous hair experiments, and the crunchy-mousse curls and hairspray-soaked ponytails that may or may not have caused permanent damage. We also get into the deeper stuff — how we each struggled to figure out who we really were as teenagers, jumping between personas, and how insecurity showed up differently for each of us. Joy opens up about a season where she equated spirituality with being "zero fun," and how her motivations for things like reading through the Bible in two months weren't always as pure as she thought at the time — but how God used it anyway. I share what it was like dealing with body changes, comparison, and dressing for comfort over style because I didn't feel confident in my own skin. If you ever wore something you cringe at now, went through a hair phase you'd rather forget, or spent your teenage years trying to figure out who you actually were underneath the persona, this episode is going to feel very relatable. 🎧 New episodes of Call Your Sister with Joy and Jinger every week — subscribe so you don't miss out!

Joy’s Pregnant! Also, We Have a New Podcast | Ep. 1
Welcome to the very first episode of the Call Your Sister Podcast! We can’t believe we’re finally saying that. In this episode, we’re sharing how a casual FaceTime conversation between sisters turned into a brand-new podcast and why Joy and I decided this was the right time to do it. We talk about what you can expect from Call Your Sister, some of the fun things we have planned, and why we want this show to feel like you’re jumping onto one of our regular sister FaceTime calls with us. But starting a new podcast isn’t even the biggest news of the episode: Joy is pregnant with BABY #4! We talk about how she told me, why this pregnancy has felt so different, and what it’s like stepping back into the baby stage after a bigger age gap. That leads us into a much deeper conversation about something we both had to rethink as adults: how many children should you have? Growing up, we both assumed that having as many children as possible was simply what you were supposed to do. We talk about questioning those childhood teachings, what Scripture actually says about children and family, and how we’ve learned to approach those decisions with our husbands through prayer, wisdom, and without fear. Then we lighten things up with some sister talk about Type A vs. Type B moms, perfectly organized refrigerators, dishes sitting in the sink, the pressure to have everything together when you’re hosting, and how social media can make it feel like everyone else is doing motherhood better than you. We also reveal just how much we actually text and FaceTime each other, confess how terrible we both can be at responding to messages, and talk about why we decided to make room for this podcast. This is the beginning of something new, and we’re so excited to have you here. Think of Call Your Sister as an hour every week to sit down, catch up, laugh, talk honestly about life, motherhood, faith, family, and all the things we’d normally be talking about on the phone anyway. So… call your sister. 🤍 Topics covered: Joy Forsyth pregnancy, baby number four, Call Your Sister Podcast, Jinger Vuolo and Joy Forsyth, family size, childhood teachings about children, motherhood, Christian parenting, Type A vs. Type B moms, social media and motherhood, sister relationships 🎧 New episodes of Call Your Sister every week — SUBSCRIBE so you don’t miss out! 00:00:00 - Life Updates and a Major Teaser00:05:26 - Introducing the Call Your Sister Podcast00:12:18 - What to Expect from the New Podcast00:13:22 - Big News from Joy00:18:10 - Deciding How Many Children to Have00:20:48 - Rethinking Their Childhood Teachings on Family Size00:27:21 - Type A vs. Type B Moms00:30:43 - When Personality Types Become Excuses00:32:44 - Balancing Hosting, Social Media, and Priorities00:35:09 - How Often the Sisters Communicate00:36:59 - Texting Habits and Email Overload00:39:56 - Worth the Call00:40:55 - Why They Decided to Start the Podcast #CallYourSister #JingerVuolo #JoyForsyth #Motherhood #Pregnancy #Sisters #MomLife #Parenting OUR INCREDIBLE SPONSORS: TRUST & WILL: Protect what matters most.

Joy & Jinger: Why It’s Been Hard to Find Joy
In this episode of the Jinger & Jeremy Podcast, my sister Joy and I are talking all about finding joy — even, and especially, in the hard seasons of life. We start light, talking about the small everyday things that bring us joy right now: home, routine, our kids, beach days, sunsets, and even a few Facebook Marketplace wins (wait until you hear about Joy's chandelier find). But we also go somewhere deeper. Joy opens up about the miscarriage of her daughter Annabelle at 20 weeks and the season of depression that followed, and how she had to fight against becoming bitter while learning to trust God through something she never saw coming. I share my own experience with postpartum depression after having Evy, along with a spiritual crossroads I walked through where I had to wrestle honestly with hard questions about faith. We talk about the difference between happiness and joy, how joy can return in small, unexpected ways after grief, and why getting your labs and vitamin D checked is such a simple but important reminder when you're feeling low. We wrap up with a fun rapid-fire on what's currently bringing us joy, and even float the idea of a Jinger & Joy spin-off podcast — let us know what you think!If you've ever walked through loss, depression, or a season where joy felt impossible to find, this conversation is for you.

So, About My Stress Rash (True Story!)
In this episode of the Jinger & Jeremy Podcast, my sister Joy and I are getting real about something almost every mom deals with: feeling overwhelmed. We're talking about overscheduled kids, overcommitting to social plans, and how to know when a busy season has crossed the line into burnout. Joy opens up about how her capacity to handle things comes in waves, and why she and Austin made the decision to protect at least three quiet evenings at home each week just to reset as a family. I share how Jeremy and I hit our own breaking point after years of "gone, gone, gone" through ministry and church commitments, and what it took for us to finally say it's time for a change, even when that meant pulling back from good things and worrying about what people would think. We dig into the difference between a busy season (like a home remodel or a book deadline) versus a lifestyle that's simply unsustainable long term, and the practical ways we've each learned to say no, protect our family's time, and communicate openly about what we can and can't handle in any given week. If you've ever felt stretched too thin, guilty about pulling back from commitments, or unsure how to reset when life gets too full, this conversation is for you. 🎧 New episodes of the Jinger & Jeremy Podcast every week — SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss out! 00:00:00 – Intro & Welcome 00:00:54 – What's Making You Feel Overwhelmed This Week? 00:04:23 – Stepping Back from Overcommitment (Bible Study Story) 00:06:08 – What Helps vs. What Doesn't When You're Overwhelmed 00:09:21 – How Austin & Jeremy Notice When We're Overwhelmed 00:12:35 – Communication, Sleep & Letting Go of What's Not Yours to Carry 00:14:44 – Do You Need to Leave the House Every Day? 00:22:34 – Burnout, a Stress Rash & Learning to Rest 00:24:36 – Things We've Said No To Recently 00:30:12 – Does Your Capacity Change With the Season? 00:32:11 – Feeling Like an Introvert & Emotional Drain 00:34:02 – Joy's Genuinely Restful Day 00:38:18 – Jinger's Genuinely Restful Day 00:42:02 – The "Milestone Party" Trend 00:44:54 – Are Themed Birthday Parties Over the Top? 00:52:44 – Overscheduled Kids & Youth Sports 00:58:02 – One Thing That's Helping Us Slow Down 01:00:07 – Closing Thoughts & Outro OUR INCREDIBLE SPONSORS: COZY EARTH: Luxury Shouldn’t Be Out of Reach.

So, About Getting Married Young
In this episode of the Jinger & Jeremy Podcast, I'm sitting down with my sister Joy to talk all things marriage, especially what it's really like getting married young. Joy was 19 when she married Austin, and I was 22 when I married Jeremy, so we're diving into our different timelines, how our age gaps compared, and what marriage actually looked like once the "happily ever after" honeymoon phase wore off. We get honest about the biggest surprises marriage threw at us — from learning how to communicate (and why miscommunication is behind almost every argument), to balancing work and family life when your husband's job doesn't fit a typical 9-to-5, to figuring out how to find your own voice and opinions after years of just going along with everything. I open up about how I used to be way more passive early in our marriage, and how Jeremy actually pushed me to become more independent... even when that meant a little more "friction" at home! We also get into some of the funnier, more personal sides of marriage: Jeremy's prankster habit of bringing snakes and reptiles into our house, Austin's germaphobe tendencies and nightly shower routine, and the best piece of marriage advice we've actually stuck with — a simple nightly question that's helped keep our communication open for years. If you're newly married, engaged, dating young, or just curious what marriage looks like behind the scenes for us, this episode is full of honest, relatable, and encouraging conversation about love, growth, and building a life together. 🎧 New episodes every week — SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss out!
