  1. If this doesn’t change, we’re getting divorced… | Valentine’s Special

    2D AGO

    If this doesn’t change, we’re getting divorced… | Valentine’s Special

    This Valentine’s special gets a little… dramatic. We take a trip down memory lane and share the REAL story of how we met (we haven't always been truthful about this), what our Valentine’s Days used to look like before parenthood, and how our relationship has changed over the years. Then we put it to the test. We play a “How well do we know each other?” Valentine’s edition... and let’s just say, some of the answers don’t go to plan… with talk of divorce thrown around more than once. Perfect if you’re new here, and even better if you’ve been with us from the start. Happy Valentine's Day! New episodes to watch and listen to EVERY Tuesday.

    When Your Child Picks a Favourite Parent (One Of Us Is Having A Meltdown)

    One of us has faced a devastating truth: "I'm not the favourite parent." Not second favourite. Not a joint favourite. Just… not it. What starts as a slightly wounded ego spirals into a very honest chat about the bit no one warns you about after becoming parents. We also chat and give our BEST parenting advice after all the experience we've had being daddies (insert sarcasm) haha! You're welcome in advance! One thing we never see anyone chat about is the post-adoption blues, which we touch on. After the excitement settles, the adrenaline disappears, and you’re left thinking, “Wait… are we actually any good at this?” New episodes to watch and listen to EVERY Tuesday.

    We’re Taking Our Son on a 15 Hour Flight... Are We Insane?

    We might have officially gone nuts because we booked a 15 hour flight with our son for our first holiday together. In this episode, we talk honestly about the nerves, the “what ifs,” and the fear of being judged while flying with a tiny child for the first time. We share why we chose the destination, how we planned the itinerary, and how we’re mentally preparing for long-haul flights as a family. If you’ve ever wondered whether travel with kids is worth it (or if everyone will hate you on the plane), this one’s for you. We're gonna experience this together haha!

    Our Son Has Two Dads - Why Does That Upset People?

    We’re opening up about life as a two-dad family... the love, the joy, and yes… the online hate. We talk honestly about the comments and trolls who seem upset by the fact that our son has two dads, and how we’ve chosen not to let that stop us from living our best life as a family. We also share a really special moment about what our son calls us and why that means more to us than any opinion online ever could. We also can't forget about celebrating our first New Year as a family, plus a more light-hearted catch-up on Stranger Things, Amber Alert, and the everyday moments that make this chapter of our lives so special.
