February 25, 2024 Episode 132: Solar Flares
We managed our second podcast for the month. This early morning recording has us talking about the cell phone outage and what an apocalypse looks like for the Thomas family. We dug into a couple true crime shows and learned that the internet is wild. Abby's birthday is on the horizon so don't forget to pencil in celebrating on her behalf anytime in March.

February 05, 2024 Episode 131: Tree's Still Up
Last year we released 13 podcasts and this year Abby has already read that many books. Chat with us about how we are like the Kelce family, Abby's reminisces about her kidney stone and yes how our Christmas tree is still up.

Also throw some thoughts to our pal Phillip Smith who is recovering after a fall off a ladder.

November 05, 2023 Episode 130: Meh
Hey we missed you. It's been busy. What better way to ease back into things than to talk about old nostalgic places we used to eat at back in the day. So many have come and gone. We confront some adult decisions and how Harlan defeated the potty monster. Thanks for listening!

August 13, 2023 Episode 129: Bussy
At the beginning of the month 8 of us went to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. Most of the people there ( minus wives who hadn't met us yet) were in attendance on that day but furthermore they've been pieces of our lives for about 30 years. We recorded two sessions, all girls and all guys. The guys get the spotlight first as Matt Stokes, Seth Thatcher, Jason Ellis and Gary talk about their friendships, marriage and more. Proceed with caution.

Oh a fun week. It's all over the board as we talk about some holistic approaches that Abby takes to health. We discuss Miranda Lambert stopping her concert for some selfie takers and peel back some curtain on our love languages. Hope you enjoy!

July 10, 2023 Episode 127: Thomas Family Trip
Vacation season and this year we went to Disneyworld. For all the pictures of fun and happiness we struggled but made the most of it. Car rides and dark rides were on the list. Harlan had fun at our expense and even Charley found some bright spots.

June 21, 2023 Episode 126: Fancy Clothes
As mentioned, we got dressed up almost like prom and spent the night at a fancy work gala. Abby looked amazing and Gary was well hydrated thanks to the bourbon tasting. Abby closed out her teaching era by taking a new job outside the classroom. We take a dive into our favorite comedy and talk about the Matt Rife explosion.

April 03, 2023 Episode 124: Spring Breakers
This past week was interesting for sure. Abby went solo with the kids and hit a rough patch during a track meet that lasted way too long. Harlan has proved he is in no shape to test his physical stamina at Disneyworld yet. Gary had a quick trip to Texas and missed out on all the fun.
