Relationsh!t Podcast

Got some sh!t to say?

Cuties, Brad and Cody (@brad.and.cody), inspire us; that is why they are our #QueerRelationshipGoals for the week. This Raleigh-based couple not only built a beautiful life together, but they manage to do it with smiles on their faces and this is why we think they’re great. Check them out on IG and make sure you let them know the Critellis sent you. Then, Marko and Tony get together to talk about what being a supportive partner means to them. Do you think you’re as supportive of your partner as you can be? If we asked them, would they agree? Tune in to find out what support looks like for the Critellis. Finally, Marko and Tony are joined at the Virtual Critable by comedian, actress, writer, and podcast host, Robin Hopkins (@realrobhops) to discuss her new podcast, Well … Adjusting, laugh about the married life, and catch up since the trio hasn’t seen one another since before the pandemic. Get ready for the best laugh-ab workout of your life with this week’s episode!

Top contenders for our #QueerRelationshipGoals for the year, Andie and Jess (@twobabesonebarn) grace our conversation and social media pages, as they solidify the reasons why we started this highlight, to begin with. These Reno-based parents are the perfect example of love and light and we are so excited to give them a spotlight. Check them out on social media and let them know the Critellis sent you. Then, Marko and Tony sit down to talk about a topic that sounds incredibly boring and the equivalent of relationship beige: scheduling intimacy for couples. When two people are busy with careers, friends, and family, how do you keep the relationship fire burning? Is scheduling time to be sweet on one another as “blah” as it sounds? Check it out and let us know your thoughts. Then, the guys bring you the October edition of Listener Sh!tuations, where they read your relationship problems and try to give you guidance … Critelli-style

We absolutely love, love … but more than that, we LOVE the relationship of Christen (@chrisssiee_)and Heather (@hlfazz), our #QueerRelationshipGoals for the week. This mother duo is all the best parts of support, kindness, devotion, and connection wrapped up in one fantastic relationship. We are such fans of them and their family and know you will be too. Check them out on IG and make sure you let them know the Critellis sent you. Then, Marko and Tony sit down to talk about the concept of ‘love at first sight’, and whether or not they believe its possible or just gas. Can you look at someone and know you’re in love with them? Or does it actually take conversation and drinks to come to that conclusion? Listen in on the conversation and see how the guys feel about it all. Then, @thecritellis bring you the September edition of Listener Sh!tuations.

Marko and Tony sit down to talk about how your relationship past can affect your relationship present. Are you still traumatized by your ex? Is your current partner paying the price? Take your time to listen to this week’s episode. Then, revisit the Critable with Tim McLemore (@essentiallytim), who you may remember from a previous episode…but this time, Tim tells us that things weren’t as great with his boyfriend as we thought. He shares his experience with domestic violence and how he has turned what he went through into a safe space so that others can process what they are going through. We discuss his non-profit endeavor that was birthed from the fire and ash of his abuse: a beautiful phoenix that now marks our country.

The Season 8 ENCORE begins with highlighting Kelvin and Reginald’s (@uncomplicatedtruestory) relationship as our #QueerRelationshipGoals. This gorgeous, Atlanta-based couple, is everything we love about love - sweet on each other and amazing together! Check them out on IG and let them know @thecritellis sent you. Then, after much anticipation (wink), Marko and Tony gather to talk about the most talked about album of 2022 … Beyoncé’s ‘Renaissance’. Of course Marko is a fan, but how does the album measure up to other Beyoncé albums for Tony? Tune in to find out as the guys go track by track to give their review of the entire album.

Then, Marko and Tony sit down at the Critable to talk about how best to set short-term and long-term goals with your partner, for yourself and your relationship. What are some things you may want to accomplish in 2024? And, how should you broach the goal-setting topic with your significant other?   Finally, the guys read this week’s Listener Sh!tuation and offer some guidance, Critelli-style.

We are super fans of Long Island lovers and this week’s #QueerRelationshipGoals, Andrew and Ronnie (@rondrew_adopts_2023). These future fathers and husbands are wonderful together and even better to gaze at on IG, so do just that - give them a follow and show them some love … and make sure you let them know the Critellis sent you! Then, Marko and Tony get together to ponder (and talk about) natural disasters and how ready they are should one take place. Do you have your disaster-ready- kit packed? If something happened tomorrow, do you and your partner have a plan?  Finally, the guys read this week’s Listener Sh!tuation and offer some guidance, Critelli-style.

Husbands and fathers, Sterling Simcox (@ssimcox) and André Charron (@acharron88) are this week’s #QueerRelationshipGoals - and for several reasons. Not only are they great together, but they’re wonderful to look at and even more incredible fathers and we are absolutely obsessed with them! Give them a follow on IG and let them know the Critellis sent you. Then, Marko and Tony get together to talk about body hair - and more specifically, what their body hair preferences are for their partner and themselves. Has gay culture influenced our thoughts on what our body hair should look like? And how much has media played a part in what we prefer when it comes to a potential partner’s body hair? Finally, the guys read this week’s Listener Sh!tuation and offer some guidance, Critelli-style.
