Mic'd Up Mom
Unfiltered. Unscripted. Unapologetic.
This is the space where the stories don’t get trimmed to
fit a segment—or softened for airtime.
I’m Elizabeth. I’ve been a journalist since 2008, working on
the national stage as a correspondent with FOX News, an
anchor and reporter on Morning Express with Robin Meade,
and now as a correspondent and contributor for NewsNation.
I also host the podcast Raising America with The Hill, where we dig
into the real issues shaping families, culture, and the country.
But titles and networks only tell part of the story.
I’m also a wife and a mom of three. I married my college
sweetheart, Darren O’Day, a retired, World Series–winning Major
League Baseball player. Together, we’re raising kids who know
how to get dirty, work with their hands, and live life beyond
screens and electronics.
Off camera, you’ll find me knee-deep in sourdough starters, backyard chickens, holistic health rabbit holes, and the
daily chaos of family life. I believe in raising resilient kids, asking hard questions, and telling the truth—even when it’s
uncomfortable.
Here, we talk about politics, motherhood, culture, power, faith, and the moments
that never make it to TV.
No producers. No scripts. No pretending.
Just raw conversations, honest perspective, and the truth as it actually unfolds—
messy, complicated, and deeply human.
If you’ve ever felt like the real story was missing…
If you’ve ever watched the news and thought there’s more to this…
You’re in the right place.
