We’ve talked about the negative reactions to coming out — now let’s flip the script. What happens when friends get curious… and want to play?

In this episode of Metamoms, we dive into awkward flirty nights, questionable decisions from our swinging days, and the messy, hilarious, sometimes painful moments that come when curiosity meets desire. We also tackle jealousy head-on and get real about facing your human emotions without shame. Expect laughs, cringe, and some hard-earned wisdom about navigating boundaries, friendship, and intimacy.

This episode is rated R. It includes discussions of sexual content, swinging, adult relationships, and explicit language. Listener discretion is advised.

In this episode, we share how we landed our parental names, we rewind to the wild world of giving birth during Covid times, where masks, visitor limits, and FaceTime introductions were just the beginning. Plus the chaos of scheduling doctors appointments with four parents in the mix and how naming the kids became a group project with veto power (and wasn't afraid to use it).

A little proof that parenting in plural can be just as joyful as it is complicated.

In this episode, we dive into the conversation that led us to growing our family, from initial resistance to the unexpected two vasectomy reversals that made it possible. We open up about what shifted out hearts, how we defined what "family really means to use and the contract that was proposed about having children together. It's a story about choices, change, and the unique path that brought us from 2 kids, to 5.

This week we’re digging into the receipts—literally. We share a painfully cringy old text where someone finally admitted their feelings (spoiler: secondhand embarrassment is real). From there, we get honest about how we broke down hierarchy in our relationship, what it was like to tell our kids about polyamory, and the messy ripple effects—estranged relationships, fallouts, and all.

It’s emotional, it’s vulnerable, and yes, we still manage to laugh at ourselves along the way. Because if you can’t roast your own awkward text history, what are you even doing?

Buckle up, because this one’s for the grown-ups. In this episode, we straight up overshare about how we found ourselves in the swinging scene,  a few spicy stories, and all the dirty details about the night our quad first met. How we realized that we weren’t just “fun friends” and we get real about coming out, cringe-worthy “rules” we tried (and broke), the jealousy/insecurity rollercoaster, and how we accidentally stumbled into polyamory before we even knew the word. 
Spoiler: it’s equal parts hilarious and humbling.

In this episode we’re talking all about life before the quad—meeting our spouses, falling in love, getting engaged, getting married, and we spill a little tea along the way. You didn’t come here for neat and tidy, right? Between 5 kids, 4 adults, 3 dogs, 3 cats, 3 horses, 2 chickens, a rabbit, and a TV show, we’re basically a farm, a circus, and a rom-com at the same time. This has been so much fun to record so far and we're so thankful for your love and support.
