  1. Hit-and-run, mom vs. dad clean & is golfing too much a red flag?!

    2D AGO

    Hit-and-run, mom vs. dad clean & is golfing too much a red flag?!

    This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, someone hit our PARKED car and drove off… which quickly turned our neighborhood into a full-blown detective operation. Ring cameras were reviewed, theories were formed, and the neighborhood group chat is working overtime trying to figure out WHO hit the car. Before we get there, we talk about the emotional side of preparing for baby #2 — including the weird “grief” mom’s experience going from one kid to two — and when toddlers ACTUALLY understand there’s a baby in mom’s belly. We also debate whether you should FaceTime your toddler while traveling or if it actually makes things worse, plus the classic travel dilemma: wait out a flight delay or just start driving. Then we get into some cultural debates: are men welcome at pilates, and is “plays too much golf” actually a relationship red flag? We also recap Harrison’s birthday and share a quick house update, plus a pro tip we learned after the hit-and-run: experts recommend replacing your car seat after an accident (+ the important step of marking the old one as CRASHED before disposing of it so it doesn’t get reused).  We wrap with Bicker of the Week: mom clean vs. dad clean (very different standards), the first time someone is mean to your kid, whether reality TV makes people more dramatic, the weird way AI seems designed to flatter us… and the family bathroom debate continues. OH and Burger King called us back!!!  LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!!

  2. Harrison’s birthday, new screen time rules & family trips to Disney

    6D AGO

    Harrison’s birthday, new screen time rules & family trips to Disney

    This week on Two Parents & A Podcast we’re celebrating Harrison’s BIRTHDAY (with a gift reveal on camera!!), debating a tiny relationship lie that has the internet divided (it involves key lime pie lol), and talking about a parenting question we genuinely didn’t know the answer to: what bathroom should girl dads take their daughters to in public?!  We get into the new screen time guidelines for kids from the American Academy of Pediatrics and why the conversation around screens is shifting from “how much” to “how and why” (+ the new DESSERT analogy we love). Plus: Harrison’s getting in shape before baby boy arrives (+ his new focus on sleep), we officially started our sourdough era, and we’ve got THE SUIT that Harrison plans to wear when he brings baby boy home from the hospital. Later in the episode we talk about a neighborhood school Q&A that made us really excited about the future, whether travel actually helps toddlers hit developmental milestones (spoiler alert: IT DOES!!!), and something we saw that we think is really cool: Costco helping make IVF treatment more affordable for families. Finally, we answer a listener question for Dr. Ari about introducing allergens when a parent has allergies. LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!!!  Timestamps:  00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:01:38 HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HARRISON!  00:07:47 BICKER OF THE WEEK: Is THIS tiny relationship lie OK?!  00:10:35 Asking for forgiveness vs. permission 00:19:41 We’ve got our sourdough starter!  00:23:35 Harrison got the suit he will wear home from the hospital! 00:27:45 Getting in shape before the baby is born 00:32:23 Can lack of sleep cancel out the benefits of exercise? 00:40:33 School Q&A happy hour with neighborhood moms  00:48:58 THINGS WE DMED EACHOTHER: The AAP’s new screen time guidelines for kids 00:59:10 Where should dads take daughters to the bathroom? 01:05:56 Do you remember the first time you got lost?!  01:07:41 We’re going to Disney World!!!! 01:17:38 Travel actually DOES help toddlers hit milestones  01:21:07 THINGS WE DMED EACHOTHER: Costco making IVF more affordable?! 01:24:28 IN THE COMMENTS: A listener question for Dr. Ari: introducing allergens when YOU have allergies?!  01:26:24 LOVE YOU GUYS! #twoparentsandapod --------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week: *Bobbie: If you want to feed with confidence too, head to https://www.hibobbie.com for the formula trusted by 700,000+ parents. *Little Spoon: Simplify your kids' mealtimes.

  3. Flying with kids, toddler leashes & crop tops while pregnant

    MAR 9

    Flying with kids, toddler leashes & crop tops while pregnant

    This week on Two Parents & A Podcast we start with an underrated friendship milestone from Sunday night: the friends you can sit in silence with. The ones you can cook dinner with, hang out with, and not feel the need to fill every moment with conversation. Then we recap Jules turning 30 (!!) in New York — including a pro-tip on how to pull off a surprise and a dinner rec that’s AMAZING for big groups. Next we get into one of the funniest internet moments currently taking over our FYPs: burger CEOs going to war on TikTok — and why some brands understand internet culture way better than others. (Yes… we actually called Burger King live on the pod hahaha) From there we talk parenting: handling toddler night wakings, how Harrison has built such a strong bond with Bubs, why we personally won’t use a child safety tether (fancy way to say leash lol), and the mindset shift that’s changed how we think about time with our kids (hint: stop trying to “pass the time”). After our latest flight, we also share our best screen-free tips for flying with a toddler. And we end with a debate: maternity clothes vs sizing up normal clothes — plus the comment section question of the week… are crop tops while pregnant acceptable or not? LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!!

  4. The 411 on Toddler Nutrition & Eating: Starting Solids, Allergies & Picky Eaters (w/ Dr. Ari Brown)

    MAR 5

    The 411 on Toddler Nutrition & Eating: Starting Solids, Allergies & Picky Eaters (w/ Dr. Ari Brown)

    This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re back with pediatrician Dr. Ari Brown for the ultimate 411 on toddler nutrition and eating habits—from starting solids at 6 months to navigating picky eating without turning dinner into a power struggle. We break down why “food before 1 is just for fun” isn’t actually true, the best first foods to introduce (it’s NOT what you think!), and the biggest choking hazards parents need to watch for—plus how to tell gagging vs. choking in the moment. Dr. Ari also walks us through allergy basics (when to intro + what reactions actually look like), when to ditch the bottle, what a normal toddler day of eating really looks like, and how to think about macros (or honestly… not think about them too much—if your child eats a variety of foods over the week, they’re probably doing just fine). Then we get into the things parents are constantly worrying about: sugar before 2, red dye, ultra-processed “kid foods,” and why toddlers randomly reject foods they used to love. Finally, we cover picky eating red flags, “safety foods,” and the #1 mealtime mistake that actually makes picky eating worse. Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! (feat.

  5. There’s two types of people… (and we’re the type that CAN’T change our own flat tire)

    MAR 2

    There’s two types of people… (and we’re the type that CAN’T change our own flat tire)

    This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re audio only (SORRY, but that’s IRL recording, baby. PS we saw your feedback (THANK YOU!!!) and we’re gonna try this for a few weeks before regrouping). ANYWAYS — we’re starting with a relationship milestone nobody talks about: the first time you see your partner truly sick. It turns out it teaches you just as much about a relationship as your first vacation together… maybe more. From there, we get into the modern logistics of adult life, including the “phone call slot” problem (miss it and you’re benched for the day) and the realization that a shocking number of adults (*cough cough* US) don’t know how to change a tire, write a check, or address an envelope. That naturally leads us into how fast AI is moving, how jobs are shifting in real time (important note: AI still cannot change a tire), and what all of this actually means for people trying to build careers right now. Then we share our top three tips for throwing a baby sprinkle that people will actually enjoy, look ahead to Expo West with a toddler (and why bringing a grandparent as backup is elite strategy), and share that we’ve OFFICIALLY narrowed baby boy names down to four. Then come the debates. Self-checkout tipping… are we doing this now or not? Expiration dates - law or just vibes? (we HAD to get Harrison’s “expert” opinion). And can you ACTUALLY trust Google reviews?! We wrap with a few life things: front porch hangouts with neighbors, pregnancy pee science (why it’s worse lying down and why no one warns you), and a glucose update that involved cake and immediate regret. LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!! Timestamps:  00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:01:39 The relationship milestone NOBODY talks about  00:08:16 The “phone call slot” problem (miss it and you’re benched) 00:10:28 Schools need a mandatory class called “Life” (changing tires, writing checks, labeling an envelope) 00:17:56 AI is moving FAST… and jobs are shifting 00:23:02 Top 3 tips for the perfect baby sprinkle 00:40:05 Expo West with a toddler (and bringing a grandparent as backup!) 00:47:04 We narrowed baby boy names to 4 00:51:47 Self-checkout tipping… are we doing this now?! 00:59:20 BICKER OF THE WEEK cont: expiration dates - law or “vibes”? 01:03:55 Front porch hangouts with the neighborhood 01:07:05 IN THE COMMENTS: Pregnancy pee science (why it’s worse lying down) 01:08:30 Glucose update: I ate cake and paid for it 01:12:15 Can you trust Google reviews? 01:19:28 LOVE YOU GUYS!  #twoparentsandapod --------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week: *Ollie: Cozy up with your pup this season!

  6. JULES FILLS IN FOR HARRISON!

    FEB 26

    JULES FILLS IN FOR HARRISON!

    This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, you get Two Parents for about 10 minutes… and then Jules takes over for Harrison. So for everyone who’s been asking in the comments for more Jules: this one’s for you (hi, mom). (ps. I still will not be going on camera. Don’t push it guys lol -Jules) Before the handoff, we cover a LOT. Pregnancy sickness recovery being wildly unfair, whether we’re accidentally becoming sourdough people (apparently like Taylor Swift?!), and what it’s like doing Expo West with a toddler in tow. We share a Bubber buckle fracture update, a hard parenting rule we learned the hard way (never skip snack time), and get into glucose intolerance… plus the surprising internet consensus that sourdough might actually help?? From there, we talk neighborhood social committees, joining a junior professionals board, and then we officially made it past all the things we had planned to talk about that I could do without Harrison - cue Jules stepping in (being thrust in…). OK we covered - secret “single behaviors” we all do, whether bricking your phone ACTUALLY works, Millennials vs. Gen Z (Jules does, in fact, call Alex cheugy), and the importance of the group text. We also discover you can apparently petition to bring back discontinued flight paths (??), play a round of Two Truths & a Lie (two truths… Jules can’t lie), and have a very real moment about how fast kids grow up. Things We DMed takes a turn with a headline that stopped us in our tracks: a baby born from a womb transplant from a deceased donor — and the bigger ethical conversation that followed. Then it’s Bicker of the Week (expiration dates: law or loose suggestion?), a practical baby #2 conversation about needing a bigger car, why the naughty corner doesn’t actually work the way we think it does. We wrap with a quick note that we are hiring (kind of) — but if you DM us, you’re automatically disqualified. LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!!  Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:03:44 Pregnancy sickness recovery is UNFAIR 00:05:09 Are we becoming sourdough people…? 00:08:34 Expo West… with a toddler  00:09:15 Bubber’s buckle fracture update 00:10:44 Parenting rule: NEVER skip snack time 00:14:12 Glucose intolerance… and sourdough might SAVE me?? 00:19:03 Neighborhood social committees  00:20:51 I joined a junior professionals board… 00:23:58 Harrison taps out, Jules fills in 00:27:17 Secret “single behaviors” we all do 00:29:35 Does bricking your phone ACTUALLY work?!  00:30:54 Millennials vs Gen Z (Jules calls Alex cheugy)  00:33:10 The group text  00:37:49 Wait… you can PETITION to bring back flight paths?! 00:39:13 Two truths & a lie (Jules edition) 00:41:42 Kids grow up too fast 00:42:33 THINGS WE DMED: Baby born from a deceased womb donor?! 00:52:16 BICKER: Expiration dates are law (apparently) 00:58:32 Baby #2 = we need a new car (XL SUV time) 01:06:12 The naughty corner doesn’t work?? 01:08:29 “LinkedIn-ifying” your life vs. reality  01:11:17 We’re hiring… but don’t DM us 01:13:24 LOVE YOU GUYS! #twoparentsandapod --------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week: *Hero Bread: Hero Bread is offering 10% off your order.

  7. Our BABYMOON in Miami

    FEB 24

    Our BABYMOON in Miami

    This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re recapping our BABYMOON in Miami… which did NOT go exactly as planned (read: food poisoning + a hospital visit) — but somehow we still had the best time!! 🤍 We start with the biggest surprise of the trip: Miami Beach being way more family-friendly than we expected (aka we’re already picturing trips with BUBBER and the new little guy). The first day and a half were AMAZING… and then things took a sharp turn. We break down the food poisoning saga, whether it hits harder when you’re pregnant, and the aftermath that involved the BRAT diet, a cold/dark room, and accepting that sometimes your body just decides you’re done for the day (all while Harrison casually coded an app???). From there, we spiral (as we do) into all the debates we had on the trip: is automatic gratuity fair?!, whether Miami prices are actually unhinged orrrr if we’re just being dramatic, and the eternal question — is it ever OK to save pool chairs at a hotel? (Please weigh in.) And OF COURSE, we share our favorite parts of the babymoon — because we’d ABSOLUTELY recommend it if you’re planning one. (But we need to say… sorry in advance if we did a little too much complaining this episode lol). Monday morning brought our first-ever trip to the ER as parents. We share what that experience was like and the #1 thing we learned. We wrap Things We DMed Each Other with Pints & Ponytails (aka Girl Dad Bootcamp), talk about why kids unwind completely differently than adults, and close out with Harrison’s thoughts on the USA vs. Canada hockey game (I got so many messages about this). LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome Back to Two Parents & A Podcast 00:01:45 Miami Beach is way more FAMILY-FRIENDLY than expected 00:05:36 Food poisoning in Miami?! 00:19:29 Is food poisoning worse when you’re pregnant?! 00:21:59 The after math of the hospital trip (BRAT diet + downtime) 00:31:05 Is automatic gratuity in restaurants fair to customers?! 00:34:27 Prices in Miami are UNHINGED 00:43:21 Is it OK to save pool chairs at a hotel?! 00:49:00 Our FAVORITE part of the babymoon 00:55:24 The first time your child goes to the ER..

  8. Failed glucose test, baby boy nicknames & where does girl scout cookie money ACTUALLY go?!

    FEB 19

    Failed glucose test, baby boy nicknames & where does girl scout cookie money ACTUALLY go?!

    This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re getting ready to BABYMOON. If you’re watching this, we’re on the beach right now (yay) trying to figure out what you even call a babymoon for baby number two (because “babymoon” feels… aggressive). Sprinkle? Second moon? TBD. Either way, we recorded this episode right before heading out and immediately spiraled. We start with trip planning debates, pregnancy food rules (can you eat beef carpaccio while pregnant?), and the age-old question of what actually matters more at a restaurant: the food or the vibe.  Then we get into the big one: failing the one-hour glucose test. What it means, what it doesn’t, what comes next, and why it’s way less dramatic than it sounds but still mentally jarring when you get the call. From there, we talk about ear piercing timing, leg shaving & making the bed. Mid-episode we cover Valentine’s Day, the jewelry-box-at-dinner move, whether we regret buying so much pink before having a boy, and the very real struggle of finding a nickname for baby boy that YOU GUYS like. Travel etiquette becomes a full debate (as always): reclining seats, switching seats for families, and whether you’re ever obligated to move on a plane. We also get into babysitter etiquette (if you say “help yourself to anything,” do you actually mean anything?), and then unpack the viral Girl Scout story where one girl sold $450k worth of cookies… and where that money really goes. We wrap with a Bicker of the Week, two Things We DMed Each Other (Olympics + Waymo obv), and a parenting takeaway that stuck with us all week: tell kids what TO do, not just what NOT to do. LOVE YOU GUYS.
