  • Speaking of Sex II: Understanding Intimacy and Breaking Societal Expectations

    Send a message to the pod!

    This week continues our conversation on intimacy, sex, and relationships! We explore the concepts of value, femininity, intimacy, and the pressures that are often placed on individuals, especially women, to conform to societal standards. Our conversation expands on how these different ideas can lead to unhealthy dynamics in relationships and the need to educate our young ones about sex and intimacy.  We also dive into the importance of mental health and the role of therapy in navigating our mental landscape. We draw from personal experiences to illustrate the struggles of setting boundaries and providing feedback. 

    And as always, we wrap up our episode with your voicemails, emails, and a sign-off to our listeners. So buckle up and join us on this fascinating journey - we promise it's worth the ride!

  • Speaking of Sex: An Honest Conversation on Intimacy

    Send a message to the pod!

    Join us as we dive headfirst into a candid and enlightening conversation about sex and intimacy, giving you a fresh perspective on an oftentimes taboo subject. We weave through the societal pressures and expectations surrounding sex, leaning into the fact that there's no one-size-fits-all answer. Instead, we celebrate the diversity of experiences and perspectives, bringing to light how factors like religion, societal norms, and cultural beliefs shape our views on sex.

    We talk through planning and sex scheduling, the effects of cohabitation on intimacy, and the continual importance of communication and mutual understanding. We also share a bit about our own experiences, including our love for fantasy football and Jo's football loyalties and how they relate to Ryan Fitzpatrick. And in the final stretch we delve into the concept and value of virginity, navigating dry spells, and goals for healthier communication with kids surrounding sex and other sensitive subjects. We invite you to join us for this intimate conversation and as always, and we're eager to hear from you about any topic suggestions for our future episodes!

    Jo and I spent Labor Day building a table, and we look back on the chaos of our many trips to the hardware store and differing approaches to DIY projects. Buckle in as we delve into fantasy baseball/football, fashion influences, and the crucial art of emotional regulation.  We also dig into how emotional regulation plays a vital role in conflict resolution and how these skills can be translated to parenting.

We share tips on the parenting currency of popsicles and the importance of maintaining identity outside of parenthood.

  • Surviving Chaos: Nihilism, Parenthood, and Flaming Gas Cans

    Send a message to the pod!

    Phew, what a week! We survived hosting five kids under three over the weekend - and the summer heat. Now we're here, thriving, and ready to share all the fun, chaos, and life lessons we've learned. From weather fascinations to understanding the unique pressures faced by stay-at-home moms, we've got a lot on the menu this week.  

    This week we get into our thoughts on having equal and individual lives outside of our roles as parents, and what we do to help one another maintain those lives. Greg's Reads of the Weeks covers leads to some conversations on taxes and nihilism, and we wrap up the week with voicemails that include the never-ending search for the perfect childcare solution and our relationship to faith and religion. Also, don't miss our hilarious recounting of a certain gas can incident—we promise it's a good laugh. 

    So, here's to the journey of life, the ups, the downs, and the middle bits. Have fun, and remember to keep the conversation going!

    Send a message to the pod!

    Have you ever wondered what it's like to chase your passion project while juggling the chaos of family life? Strap in and join Matt and I as we peel back the curtain on our world of podcasting. We spill the tea on everything - from our late-night recording sessions in our hypothetical attic studio to the inevitable squabbles that result. To top it off, we navigate through the madness of an 11-day road trip, detailing everything from our packing strategies to the joys and trials of being hands-on parents. 

    Fasten your seat belts as we steer you through the rollercoaster ride that was our family vacation. We'll take you through the hiccups of planning activities, the pure bliss of watching our kids immerse themselves in a live musical, and yes, the nerve-wracking moments of teeing off on a new golf course. We compare casino and golf etiquette, and get into the gritty details of Matt's marathon driving sessions and their aftermath.  

    We wrap things up with Greg's Reads of the Week and some Q&A with some listeners like you!
