Michelle Obama<\/strong> gets annoyed with husband Barack Obama<\/strong> for a surprising reason.<\/p>\n On the Wednesday, October 1, episode of her and brother Craig Robinson<\/strong>\u2018s IMO<\/em> podcast,<\/a> the duo welcomed therapist Dr. Orna Guralnik<\/strong> as a guest. During the episode, the former first lady, 61, talked about how her and Barack\u2019s lives have changed<\/a> since their children \u2014 Sasha,<\/strong> 24, and Malia,<\/strong> 27 \u2014 left home.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve noticed how much of our time we\u2019ve spent talking about them, right?’\u201d she admitted. \u201cSo now that we\u2019re empty-nesters, it\u2019s like, \u2018Well, what are we going to talk about?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ll see him and it\u2019s like, \u2018what you been doing?\u2019 It\u2019s like, \u2018Oh, don\u2019t tell me until dinner because we got to have something to talk about at dinner,’\u201d she explained. \u201cSo, if all throughout the course of the day I\u2019m getting caught up on his stuff, then it\u2019s like we\u2019re sitting staring at each other.\u201d<\/p>\n Dr. Guralnik then suggested it\u2019s good to have raw conversations to know what your partner is really \u201cthinking about\u201d at the dinner table. The Becoming<\/em> author confessed that sometimes the only thing on her mind is how the former President<\/a>, 64, chews.<\/p>\n \u201cBecause how many times does somebody ask, \u2018What are you thinking about?\u2019 And you\u2019re like, \u2018Well, let me make up a thing because I don\u2019t actually want to tell you what I was thinking about, which is like, \u2018The way you\u2019re chewing makes me want to smack you upside the head,’\u201d Michelle revealed.<\/p>\n \u201cWhy does your chewing annoy me so much? Let\u2019s discuss,\u201d she joked. \u201cYeah, I don\u2019t know if I\u2019d bring that up.\u201d<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/staging.globemagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/upiphotosthree023388-scaled.jpg\")
