In this week’s episode we’re talking about all the little things people say your kids notice — even when you think they’re not paying attention. 

From how you handle stress to if you actually watch when they say "watch this!" It’s a conversation that had us reflecting, laughing, and getting a little worried about what's to come...

Some of the habits and behaviors we unpack:

 👀 If we actually follow the rules we set for them
 📱 How often we’re on our phones ... yikes
 💬 How we talk about ourselves and others
 🔥 How we react to mistakes — theirs and ours
❤️ How we treat each other in front of kids 
📆 How we spend our free time -- this is a big one for us! 

And because it wouldn’t be Relatable with the Roses without it, we also dive into Good Week / Bad Week — featuring Sophia’s not-so-proud ditzy moment and some major Grayson milestones that made us absolutely melt.

It’s our anniversary week 🎉, so we’re celebrating with a game that tests just how well we really know each other: Do You Even Know Me?

We take turns answering questions about ourselves to see if our partner can guess correctly. Spoiler alert: Sophia might know Bradley a little too well, and Bradley ends up sharing way more than he planned (oops).

In this episode you’ll hear:

• The anniversary game that reveals way more than we expected 💍
• Which questions sparked hilarious disagreements vs. scary-accurate answers
• The stories behind our guesses — and a few confessions Bradley didn’t mean to share

Play along with us and see how many of these you’d get right about your partner!

This week we’re trying something new: Dear Roses 🌹—where you send us your real-life relationship dilemmas, and we do our best to give advice (with zero credentials, but plenty of opinions).

From nosy in-laws to too many pumpkins, from snooze-button battles to TikTok in bed, we’re tackling the everyday quirks that couples face—and laughing our way through it. Plus, we also dive into some real questions about IVF stigma, friends-with-benefits feelings, and how you know when you’ve met “the one.”

Here’s what we covered in this episode:

🚪 In-laws who “pop by” unannounced—sweet or suffocating.

🎃 Pumpkin obsession: fall cozy vibes or seasonal intervention?

❤️ Friends-with-benefits turned something more—what now?

⏰ The dreaded snooze button debate—normal or divorce-worthy?

💍 How do you actually know you’re dating “the one”?

📱 Falling asleep to TikTok—relationship red flag or harmless quirk.

🧪 IVF stigma and the assumption it’s always the woman’s issue

Is it a 🚩 red flag… or actually kinda genius?

This week, we’re diving into the little quirks, habits, and choices that couples make in marriage and asking: are they signs of trouble, or smart strategies to keep the peace?

We put our own marriage under the microscope and debate the internet’s most talked-about “marriage red flags,” like:

Some of these we totally do (and swear by). Others? Let’s just say… not for us.

Join us for laughs, debates, and maybe a few confessions.

This week’s episode is a mix of laughs, love, and a few unexpected creepy crawlers. 🕷️

We kick things off with Good Week / Bad Week:

• Sophia’s “bad week” features a spider infestation (made worse by her American aversion to open windows while sleeping in England).
• Bradley’s good/bad mix leads us right into a chat about what listeners had to say about maternity and paternity leave in the U.S. — and spoiler: it’s not what we thought.

Then, because it is a relationship podcast… we had to talk about the biggest relationship headline right now: Taylor Swift + Travis Kelce’s engagement.  👀

Finally, we dive into love languages. We guess each other’s, debate whether they’re legit (Brad’s skeptical), and share how we’re really doing at expressing love in ways that resonate with one another.

Today we dive into the big question weighing on us right now? 👉 Going back to work.

• When is the right time?
• Is daycare too soon when your baby’s still itty bitty?
• Do we ask family for help, even if it feels unfair?
• Nanny vs. daycare vs. doing it all ourselves — what’s actually sustainable (and affordable)?
• And how do we handle the guilt of leaving our newborn while trying to, you know, keep our jobs?

It’s a raw, real, and slightly sleep-deprived chat about what this next season might look like — and how we’re trying to figure it out together.

This week’s episode is packed:

👶 Sophia’s good week/bad week — from the huge milestone of our newborn finally latching to her guilty-pleasure reality TV binges during late-night pumping sessions.

⚽ Bradley’s good week/bad week — from tiny UK parking spaces that sparked some serious dad-rage to the joy of watching Manchester United with our son for the very first time.

⚖️ Couple’s Court is back and things get heated: Is being “on time” actually showing up 10 minutes early… or just on time? (Spoiler: we may never agree on this one.)

🎧 Plus, we read YOUR wild birth stories — from waters breaking in the frozen food aisle to a baby born in a hospital parking lot to sharing a maternity ward with a reality TV star and a full Bravo camera crew. Let’s just say, “going to plan” is overrated.

This week is a rollercoaster in the best, most Relatable with the Roses way. We dive into Bradley’s alternative health journey for stroke recovery—what he’s trying, how he’s feeling, and what’s next. (Hint: he hasn’t eaten in 12 days. Yep. We talk about why.)

We also revisit Couple’s Court after getting a flood of messages from you all. The case on appeal? The Dishwasher Debate. Who actually won—Sophia or Bradley? We read your DMs and render a (mostly) final verdict.

And for Good Week/Bad Week, we detour into the worst apartment Sophia ever lived in—the one where she had to put herself to sleep at 6:45 pm because of all the mice. 😬

We’ve officially survived (mostly) the first month of parenthood — and let’s just say, nothing could have fully prepared us for what we’ve learned, lost (sleep), and leaked.

In this episode, we’re unpacking:

• The parenting curveballs that hit harder than expected (hi, pelvic floor and baby poop panic)
• The wild breastfeeding journey — tongue tie, latch drama, and why nipples deserve hazard pay
• Postpartum fashion surprises (underwear MVP, anyone?)
• How our dogs are adjusting to life with a tiny human (spoiler: not well, Alfie)
• Why “sleeping upstairs” felt like a betrayal (even if it was only 10 feet away)
• The weird grief that comes with saying goodbye to pregnancy perks

🎮 Plus, we play a game called “Parenting Advice: Yay or Hell No” — where we react to traditional, outdated, and totally unhinged parenting advice from the past.

Let’s just say: we have thoughts on “cry it out,” “boys don’t cry,” and why biting your baby back is not the solution.

Whether you're a new parent, a dog parent wondering if they’ll adjust, or just love a good TMI overshare — this one's for you.

🎧 Tune in for the mess, the magic, and some questionable advice we’ll definitely be ignoring.

In this episode, we pick up right where we left off — deep in labor, hanging on by a thread (and an epidural), and doing everything we said we didn’t want to do. Because when it comes to childbirth, your “birth plan” is more like a suggestion… and the universe might just laugh in your face.

We talk through:

• The one thing I swore I wouldn’t do… and why I had to do it anyway
• The moment things got scary — and bloody — fast
• What surprised us most about pushing, delivery, and those final minutes
• Meeting our son for the first time 
• How Alfie and Chloe reacted when we brought him home 
• And why it’s true what they say: birth is messy, magical, and nothing like the movies

This is the raw, honest, “we still can’t believe that happened” episode. We’re sharing the pain, the panic, the power, and the quiet after — when it was just us and this brand new little person we somehow made.
