Sometimes all you want from family is attention..and all of it. In this week’s episode, Alex and Jon once again tackle your questions from “How do I get more attention?” to “Was Dr.Seuss on drugs?”. I think we can all agree he was on SOMETHING when writing his books, right? Alex seems to think so since all she does now is read to Lucy. Jon can’t focus on reading because he’s too busy defending crimes like vandalism. If you can’t tell, this episode has a range of topics so there’s something for everyone!

"Can we get a family photo? Just without you?”. The in-laws are ON ONE this episode. Thanksgiving is this week and Alex and Jon are here to help you stay thankful during the holiday season. From requesting photos without you to believing the earth is flat, family members are really testing the limits to their relationships with our listeners. It’s the holidays so even though we are thankful to be around our loved ones, we are sometimes thankful to leave.

There’s nothing better than relaxing into the holiday season…unless you’re around family, of course. In this week’s episode, Alex and Jon deal with holiday drama from petty in-laws to boyfriends that will never become husbands. It would be a holiday miracle if everyone got along during this season but you can’t make everyone happy. Once you accept that the holidays come with drama, you can actually relax into the experience because you can’t have joy without a little bit of sadness.

Welcome to the world, Lucy Grey! Alex and Jon had a baby and she’s more perfect than you could ever imagine. In this week’s episode, they discuss their trip to the hospital and what it’s like to finally have their daughter in their arms. Yes, it's a bunch of sleepless nights and a complete change of lifestyle, but they couldn’t be happier. Even in the throws of new parenthood, they still have time to answer your questions and give advice. Take it lightly, though. They’re running on negative 10 hours of sleep.

We’ve got cheating, we’ve got herpes, and we’ve got threesomes! The ultimate trifecta. For some, three’s a crowd but for others…it’s standard. The only third thing Alex and Jon are adding their relationship is their beautiful baby girl! She’s set to arrive any day now so this is the last episode before Jon and Alex are thrust into the world of parenthood. Today’s stories may be wild but they’re nothing compared to the journey they’re about to embark on.
