Back-to-school, scrapbook nights & do you turn on the ‘big light’?!
Aug 17, 2026 · 1 hr 10 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday from Vancouver!! (Let us know if we should pick this studio up and drop it in Austin, because we are officially feeling like we need a remodel..) Ok guys, it's back to school time, so we're taking a sec to ask YOU: how are you feeling?? We can feel the energy shift. We don't know what this season is like as parents yet, but we can absolutely remember shopping for a new pair of True Religions and heading to the bookstore for school supplies. WOW,…
Q&A: Potty training, big girl beds & homeschool vs. public school?!
Aug 14, 2026 · 1 hr 5 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Friday!! We are officially in Vancouver ourselves, but before we headed out, we answered YOUR questions (& for our guys and gals who love a parenting-heavy episode, this one is for you!!!) But not until we cover a few things first: maintenance days vs. self-care days (getting your nails done is NOT self-care, it's maintenance!), the weirdest ways people find out they're pregnant (did you know your hairstylist might know before you do?! Dry scalp,…
Would you raise kids with your best friend?! (+ minivans & adult Bluey fans)
Aug 12, 2026 · 1 hr 30 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday!! This episode is the definition of everything but the kitchen sink.. also yes, we welcomed you to the pod TWICE because we forgot welcome on this upcoming Friday’s episode, SORRY hahaha. We're kicking things off with the Tweet of the Week: you're allowed to be proud of yourself, PRESENT tense. Harrison shares why it struck a chord (he's been guilty of never exhaling on the fitness front), and then Alex asks the question she immediately…
Imaginative play, out-of-control dorm decor & why we’re returning the Puddle Jumper…
Aug 10, 2026 · 1 hr 18 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday!! We're kicking things off with the MOST RANDOM comeback story: Nerds Gummy Clusters took a declining $50M brand to $850M in five years?! (Alex wants a whole documentary about whoever greenlit the cluster.) You might be asking why we start with this (lol) and it's simple.. Alex's leggings smelled like mildew, and Jules apparently has a condition (called dysgeusia) that makes water taste like mildew after she eats gummy clusters. Mind you, this w…
Healthy aging for the whole family (with Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson)
Aug 7, 2026 · 52 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we've got a very special guest!! This conversation could not be more top of mind for us: earlier this week we talked about how much more risk tolerant we USED to be (ex: we once loved helicopters.. now we won't get on one hahaha). Because as new parents, we're focused on one thing: how do we live to 100 (no like actually literally??) so we can spend as much time with our kids as possible?! Enter Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson: veterinary epidemiologist, healthy a…
Playground etiquette, the “convenience tax” & is Myspace actually coming back?!
Aug 5, 2026 · 1 hr 18 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday!! This one's got range: playground etiquette, flying taxis, Myspace nostalgia and a practical joke involving a bunny. We kick things off with the "quizzing my husband on girly products" trend (Harrison learned the term nail bed today lol), the navy sheets convo (Alex shares what she was REALLY thinking walking into Harrison's place for the first time hahaha), plus the bunny prank that raised a real question: is it ever OK to gift your f…
Invisible postpartum, Princess Diana's Beanie Baby & the ChatGPT parenting tip shocking the internet
Aug 3, 2026 · 1 hr 9 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy August!! We're kicking off the new month with a fun exercise: months as days of the week. Alex & Harrison think July is Saturday (aka everyone is in Europe), while Jules says it's obviously Wednesday (linear brain vs. vibes brain we guess lol). Then some real life: the fever made its way from Rocky to Tate, which meant all four of us in one bed by 6 AM and a very high-stakes game of "nobody make a sound." Plus the grandparent gift idea we're recommendi…
Decision fatigue, adulting & the power of “low maintenance” friends
Jul 31, 2026 · 1 hr 8 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Friday!!! Ginny bears is in the office (should this be a new Friday ritual?!). We’re kicking things off with a car debate (low-key our bicker of the week every week LOL): do we need a "non-car seat" car?! Alex is dreaming of a 4-door Jeep Wrangler for just the parents, Harrison is pitching a golf cart (Jules's face said everything), and somehow by the end of the convo we are still a one-car family until further notice. Then Harrison drops TWO bombs fro…
Reverting to first-time parent mode, AM/FM radio & why don't airports have play areas?!
Jul 29, 2026 · 1 hr 4 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday!!! We start with a real one: Rocky spiked a 102.7 fever this week (he's totally fine now!!), and even though we're second-time parents, it was a first-time occurrence for us… and we went RIGHT back into first-time parent mode. We get into how we handled it (calling the pediatrician hotline at 4 AM), how our in-home pediatric practice works (& why we love it so much), and the bigger realization: no matter how many kids you have, a new challeng…
Our family trip to Georgia, conspiracy theory nights & the importance of gathering
Jul 27, 2026 · 50 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're coming to you from GEORGIA!!! We recorded Sunday night from Serenbe (a neighborhood focused on wellbeing 45 minutes outside Atlanta - If you live a direct flight from ATL and are looking for a family trip… we highly recommend!!). We flew in for a friend's kid's first birthday and turned it into a whole family weekend, which leads to a bigger conversation: every state has "pockets of magic" like this, and we share the ones at the top of our list to chec…
Early brain development, our date-night check-in & what it means when your toddler says 'um'
Jul 24, 2026 · 1 hr 10 min
Welcome back to another episode of Two Parents & A Podcast — it's FRIDAY (and yes, as promised, Harrison has brought his Friday energy!!!). For our listeners who like a parent-heavy episode more than Harrison — this one is for you!! (lol) OK so - did you know 90% of your adult brain develops between 0 & 5?! WE DIDN’T! So we dug into a few child development topics on this episode: First… your toddler saying "um" isn't rude (side note: is it rude for adults to say um?!), it's actually an important…
The favorite child, toddler communication & how do we divide household chores fairly?!
Jul 22, 2026 · 1 hr 20 min
Welcome back to another episode of Two Parents & A Podcast — happy HUMP DAY (lol). Harrison is BACK from Minnesota and we get a little behind the scenes look on what it's like to drop an exclusive collab with Target (everyone go try the Flock Turkey Bacon Strips!!) before we get into our topics for the day. Here are the big ones: the favorite child (apparently most parents have one) — we talk about what we learned about how this impacts BOTH the favorite AND the non-favorite sibling. Big communi…
Q&A: Friendships after having kids, postpartum arguments & career planning as a working mom
Jul 20, 2026 · 1 hr 28 min
Welcome back to another episode of Two Parents & A Podcast — or rather, this week is 1 parent + 1 childfree (childless??) person lol as Harrison is out of town for a work trip (but DON'T worry, we get a full rundown of his day mid episode). On today's ep, we took some "girlypop" (as Jules calls it) questions from the audience about friendship, relationship, career, and motherhood. Here's a quick rundown of the Qs you can look forward to: how have friendships with your childfree friends changed s…
Wearing shoes in the house, birthday treats at school & is it ever OK to lie to your kids?!
Jul 17, 2026 · 1 hr 1 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Friday!!! We recorded this episode the night before heading out to DC and instead of our usual, we decided to do a little game: we picked a bunch of parenting hot takes & "would you rather" questions to answer rapid-fire, and yes we were all a little slap happy LOL. PSA UPFRONT: we talk about Santa in this episode around 20 minutes in… please do not listen in front of your kids!!! OK let's get into it: A few we cannot stop thinking about: is it ever OK…
3AM wake-ups, social smiling & we’re OFFICIALLY swearing off produce
Jul 15, 2026 · 1 hr 23 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday!!! TBH we started with a 10 minute spiral about CYCLOSPORIASIS (are you guys spiraling too???). We are officially swearing off produce for the time being (but if you don't want to, Dr. Brown taught us to stick to things with peels and still wash them!!). ok ANYWAYS - guess we are saving on berries for the time being… We get into Tate's 3AM wake up: how we handled it, how YOU GUYS said you would handle it, and why we're chill with letting this…
Sports fan red flags, social media's addictive design & 5 baby products worth the money
Jul 13, 2026 · 1 hr 6 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday!!! Harrison is officially DONE with the World Cup (despite going to the game tomorrow AND talking about it for like 20 minutes on this ep lol). BUT this leads to a fun discussion: is watching sports with someone you're dating the new "turbulence test"?! We run through the RED FLAGS of watching sports with a guy — is his day being made or ruined by other men playing a game he's not in?! 🚩 But first: we broke our own rule and started the pod talk…
Co-sleeping, the ‘pay-to-play’ sports problem & Summer House is coming to Canada?!
Jul 10, 2026 · 1 hr 13 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Friday!!! Rocky is officially out of the 4th trimester 🥹 (it truly is like a light switch flips at 3 months). Speaking of new milestones, Alex tried co-sleeping with him for the first time now that he's past the safe age - the review: loved every second of it but didn't get a whole lot of sleep lol. We start with a trending topic: what is the "back in my day we walked uphill both ways" of our generation?! (i.e. we made it through 4 years of college wi…
Wedding hot takes, postpartum anxiety tools & parenting around the world
Jul 8, 2026 · 1 hr 15 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday!!! We're back in Austin after our family “vaccination” (lol iykyk ) in Colorado (and we have a lot to catch up on!!!). First: a question from a viral video that has literally broken our brains all week - are your friendships hobby-based or BUDGET-based?! (& why we think the answer depends on the city you live in.) Then we spend a solid 25 minutes doing SMASH or PASS on every detail we've heard from the Taylor Swift x Travis Kelce wedding, bec…
Family trips with friends, "airport divorce" & is confidence the secret to success?!
Jul 6, 2026 · 49 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday (and welcome back from a holiday weekend)!!! We recorded our first ever remote MOUNTAIN edition from COLORADO 🏔️ We just wrapped up our first family trip with friends (5 other couples + 10 kids under 4!!) and all we can say is: if you can plan a trip with friends who have kids the same age as yours… DO IT. After two more structured episodes (our stories + a Q&A - check them out if you haven't!!), we had to have a bit of a chaos episode, startin…

Jul 1, 2026 · 1 hr 27 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEX!!! 🥳 (from Jules!!!) Since we’re on summer break AND it's Alex's 33rd birthday AND we happen to have a LOT of new listeners lately, we figured today was the perfect day for a full reintroduction episode!!! Alex & Harrison take us all the way back to before they knew each other and walk through the sequence of events that got them to where they are today (family of 4 in Austin!!!). Jules’ note to this listener: I learned a TON of new thin…
Postpartum anxiety, our first family trip & what are non-parents doing between 4 and 8PM?!
Jun 29, 2026 · 1 hr 8 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday!!! We get into a topic I've been thinking about a LOT lately: the postpartum anxiety I'm experiencing the second time around (it's a totally different beast than postpartum depression, AND the anxiety this time is split between two kids…). I share what's actually helping me (s/o to Michelle for the "text me every intrusive thought you have" technique 🥹), and Harrison talks about how he's adapting to support me through it. Then we get into our F…

Jun 26, 2026 · 1 hr 14 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy FRIDAY!!! Rocky was on his FIRST EVER flight this week (which made it our first flight with 2 under 2!!), and we have OPINIONS. We get into the case for booking a 3rd seat once your toddler is 20 months old, the flight delay fiasco that almost made us drive home from Dallas, and the very kind woman on the plane who held Rocky for me (which prompted an interesting conversation: the price of community is being willing to be inconvenienced 🥹). Plus, why…

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, WELCOME BACK to a VERY special episode!!!

Kid birthday parties, ISR vs. swim lessons & would you leave the World Cup for your child's birth?!
Jun 22, 2026 · 1 hr 1 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday!!!! We are coming off of a CHAOTIC night… our fire alarm went off 4 TIMES between 3 and 5 AM, and we ended up having to take a screwdriver to the wall to dismantle the entire system to make it stop 😭 (+ Alex had postpartum heartburn so bad ChatGPT was actively trying to send her to the ER.) But the show goes on… We start with our Father's Day BBQ recap (we fried chicken for the neighbors!!) and played a fun game: who are the top 10 most followe…
Millennial dads, UK's under-16s social media ban & are Gen Z employees actually lazy?!
Jun 19, 2026 · 1 hr 23 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy FRIDAY!!! Our third episode of the week is HERE… how are we doing?! (We are loving the Mon/Wed/Fri rhythm so far & we hope you guys are too 🥹) We get DEEP this episode on the millennial dad mindset. Modern dads are now contributing 30 hours a week of childcare and housework (vs. 10 hours in 1965!!), which is a real shift, but Harrison would also like to be clear: moms are THE SUPERHEROES, carrying the bulk of the mental, physical, and hormonal load!!!…

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday & welcome to our FIRST week of 3 episodes a week!!!

So if you think this episode feels all over the place… IT IS!! (welcome to the inside of our brains on a Monday morning lol). On today's episode: we get into a parenting concept that has officially rewired our brain: toddlers are SCIENTISTS!!! We are SO d…
U.S. Maternity leave, toddler tantrums & why do we call it “football”?!
Jun 11, 2026 · 1 hr 6 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we go DEEP on the US maternity leave problem (did you know in 1919, 37 out of 38 industrialized nations adopted 14 weeks of paid leave… and the US was the ONE that held out?! And 100 years later, 1 in 4 American moms will go back to work within 2 weeks of giving birth?!). We learned SO much prepping for this episode & we're excited to figure out what we can do about this. Before we get into that, we start with Harrison's potentially fake World Cup jersey fro…

Jun 8, 2026 · 1 hr 18 min
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday!!!! Jules is BACK from Cape Cod (with a hot take: there is nothing better than timing a girls trip with the premiere of Love Island!!!). And we officially took our first road trip with 2 under 2 (Dallas!!)… we have OPINIONS… is it actually easier to drive 3 hours or fly 30 minutes when you have a toddler and a newborn?! We break down the full case for each (and the verdict surprised even us). Then we get into Harrison officially deleting social…
