This week, we were a little late because Matt caught influenza—but that didn’t stop us! In this episode, we’re diving into the feverish (and funny) realities of being under the weather in a relationship.

Should your significant other play nurse, or is everyone on their own? Who takes care of the kids when the house is full of sniffles? And let’s settle it once and for all: are men actually that sick, or is it just the infamous "Man Cold"?

Tune in for laughs, debates, and maybe a few sniffles.

Welcome back to another episode of Midwest Married. Maintaining a happy/healthy relationship, kids, friendship, intimacy and everything else that could come at you in this crazy thing we call life.

This week, we are joined by Morgan from Two Hot Takes in California for an in-studio episode packed with relatable drama and laughs. Together, we dove into listener write-ins and shared our own real-life experiences, from pre-planned vacations being hijacked by family to dads ruining weddings just to boost their ego. 

We didn’t stop there—holiday desserts causing family feuds, moving away from relatives, and breakups sparked by naughty websites that kept the conversation rolling. Laugh, cringe, and maybe even find a little inspiration along the way.
