Is Father's Day a "real" holiday? TBC and Erik debate both sides. They also submit the notion that anyone can write a children's book. And above all else, they wonder the age old question: how do working parents do it?!?

Erik and Carolyn "yadda yadda" child birth. But not before commenting on their hospital nurse 'Thank You' gifts and the hospital-provided newborn photographers. They also drop a sick recommendation for an Orlando-area newborn photographer that is straight fire. Plus, Carolyn impersonates Donald Trump. All this and more on a special 4th of July edition of the Young Family Podcast.

It's been 2 months since Carolyn and Erik gave birth to baby Jackson! But they're just now getting around to podcasting about it... turns out newborns are time consuming. Who knew?

Therefore, in the world premier of Season 2: 'The Jackson Years', the first-time parents share the first installment of their labor and delivery story that they recorded 3 weeks after delivery. Let the confusion of that statement be a testament to the cluster that is parenthood.
