Two Parents & A Podcast

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re talking house upgrades (sorry Jules), hosting duties, and FAFO parenting (is anyone else seeing this EVERYWHERE?). We kick things off with a travel insurance debate (is it a scam or are we just unlucky?), a pilot who called in “not feeling it,” and a quick convo about why no one trusts the media anymore 😬

In our house update, we break down where we’re splurging vs. saving (somehow both at the same time), review Flock’s new turkey bacon jerky (no free ads LMAO), and share a “pinch me” moment from this week around the neighborhood.

We’re also hosting a baby shower (surprise - the neighbors are having a baby!!!!!)— and this is gonna be fun (there will be beer in bay bottles). Plus, I reflect on my breastfeeding & pumping journey (spoiler alert: Sunday’s episode is a lactation consultant!!), and we wrap with Things We DMed Each Other: adult Happy Meals (yes, really) and our take on the FAFO school of parenting.

OK LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re sharing the relationship habits that have actually helped us (and YOU GUYS) stay connected as new parents — from daily 15-minute check-ins to remembering not to “talk through” your baby. We also talk about what it really means to support your partner through postpartum depression, and how we need to try going to bed at the same time (apparently this is a thing a lot of you guys do??).

Before that, we dive into kindergarten cutoff dates (is it better to be old or young for your grade??), the great Diet Coke vs. Diet Pepsi debate, and our first ever MOVIE NIGHT REVIEW of Happy Gilmore 2. Plus, the new “fridge cigarettes” meme and a little closet clean-out convo (Harrison might need to watch the Marie Kondo show??).

In Things We DMed Each Other, we’re taking on the hotel industry (check-in at 4pm, check-out at 11am? Really??) and decoding Gen Z’s newest phone greeting trend.

WE LOVE YOU GUYS!

It’s our first Sunday episode of Two Parents & A Podcast!!!! We’re kicking off our new DOUBLE DATE series — where we bring on other couples to talk about love, parenting, internet chaos, and everything in between — and who better to start with than Matt & Abby?

If you’ve been on the internet in the last five years, you’ve likely seen Matt & Abby (https://www.youtube.com/c/MattAbby) sharing their relationship, growing family, and real-life moments with their millions of followers. We get into why they chose to vlog the birth of their sons, how their perspective shifted after baby #2, and what led them to stop showing their kids’ faces online.

We also talk about dealing with internet hate, the one thing they wish they hadn’t posted, and how they draw boundaries as a couple who lives much of their life publicly. Oh — and we do, of course, get into a classic Bicker of the Week: how early should you get to the airport?

Stay tuned for more guests on Sundays. LOVE YOU GUYS!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re on a family beach vacation (s/o Nanit!) and putting in some WORK recording a bunch of fun interviews for you guys!!! If you didn’t know—we’re launching a second weekly episode (stay tuned this Sunday)!! We break down the four new formats, how they’ll differ from the main show, and why we’re so excited to bring more voices into the mix.

Before that, we’re debating whether you should kiss on the first date, reminiscing about OUR first date, and sharing a big “Bicker of the Week” moment: checking a bag vs. carrying on. We also chat about eating off your partner’s plate (guess who’s guilty), updated travel tips with a 10-month-old, and how to make childhood feel magical. Oh—and we reveal the best day of the week to travel (spoiler: it’s Saturday PM, and we explain why).

Plus, a quick house update, our take on LA traffic, and a cheesy but true reminder about doing what you love.

WE LOVE YOU GUYS!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we’re talking about parenting decisions we’ve officially changed our minds on. From sleep training to breastfeeding timelines to actually caring about “firsts,” (yeah - Harrison really claimed he didn’t care!!!), we share what we thought we’d do before Tate was born… and what we’ve flip flopped to now (it’s called personal growth OK!!). 

Plus: Tate is fully on the move, which means we’re in deep child-proofing mode (baby gates, outlet covers, the whole deal). We also catch you up on some fun home updates (yes to wallpaper!!), debate the best parking spot in this week’s Bicker of the Week, and react to the most Alex x Harrison coded collab of the year: Barbie x ChatGPT. Oh—and stay tuned at the end for yet another new segment idea - Harrison’s inspirational quote of the week.

WE LOVE YOU GUYS!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we’re sharing our top 5 must-haves for traveling with a baby (under 12 months)! Tate’s officially been on a TON of flights, and we’re finally feeling like we have it down. From our new 20-minute buffer rule (the stroller ALWAYS sets off the alarm) to maintaining routine with a few key constants, this list is fully battle-tested after 3 straight weeks of travel (ps. yes, we are happy to be home).

We also talk about the playroom updates (spoiler: we might be going a little overboard, but it’s truly magical) and other home updates (how many times can I say Sherwin-Williams Pure White?? lol). 

Plus, we revisit last week’s convo about the power of perspective—and unpack the difference between reframing and toxic positivity.

In Things We DMed Each Other: an overemployed remote worker with a wild secret, TSA FINALLY ending the shoe removal policy, and a quick “Fail of the Week” involving a barbershop mishap (s/o to the very patient barber— but also, drop your thoughts on Harrison’s half-finished haircut 😂).

WE LOVE YOU GUYS!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we’re still in a hotel (shoutout to The LINE Austin for really making this the SUITE life of Bubber), and no, the hardwood floors are still NOT done.

We filmed this one first thing in the morning before heading out for the birthday/Fourth of July trip (if you didn’t see on IG — we made our flight, but only managed to check 2 out of 3 bags in time hahaha).

This week, we went to our first “kids’ birthday party” (spoiler: we loved it). But apparently, we’re going to get sick of them? We break down how we think kids’ birthday parties work—or maybe how they SHOULD work. Plus, at this party, the most embarrassing moment in recent memory happened to me (you’ll have to listen to find out what it was). And we celebrate a little “bragging parent” moment—because sometimes it’s okay to celebrate the wins.

We also talk about the power of perspective, pitch a new dating app idea, and share our favorite Fourth of July memories (cue Harrison saying “bro, it was like a movie”).

We love you guys and hope you get to enjoy some time off this holiday weekend! ❤️

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we’re back from a big family trip and giving our official Charleston recap: hotel ratings, travel highlights, and our new favorite parenting moment.

OK, quick disclaimer if you’re new here (hi!) — this episode is a little chaotic. We do start with a 5-minute deep dive into women’s haircuts (??) and I was in kind of a flat mood for the first 15 minutes… but I came around and honestly this might be our most fun episode yet. (Also yes, we filmed in bed.)

We talk about why Tate would rather play with an AirPods case than an actual toy, share updates from hotel life (Suite Life of Bubber - s/o to The LINE Austin) and fill you in on our wood floor drama back home.

In Bicker of the Week, it’s Booking.com vs. booking direct (and for the record, I think I’m up 2-0 on Harrison). In Things We DMed Each Other, we’re talking landline phones for kids, ChatGPT brain scans (@Harrison should have been studied), and whether self-driving cars are actually safer than humans???

WE LOVE YOU GUYS!
