We are Britt and Saxon, a married couple in Denver with 2 kids, ages 5 and 7. We are both full time parents and independent working artists (rapper/comedian Old Man Saxon and filmmaker/musician Baby Luck).
Life is busy and messy, and we both do so much and feel so much the other person doesn't appreciate or even know about. So we decided to create this podcast, where we will each sit down separately for 3 minutes, 4 nights a week, Monday thru Thursday, to record what happened for us that day. We will not edit or do multiple takes. When our 3 minutes are up, we stop. Then it's the next person's turn. Simple!
Making this podcast together is our way of doing something consistently and simply, in the midst of all our respective long term creative goals and projects, that often drain us and leave us feeling depleted. We hope you'll come along on this journey with us as we find our way by being candid, honest and most importantly, seeing and listening to each other. We'll do this as long as it helps our marriage.
The shape of the podcast is evolving as we move through grieving Britt's mom. Thank you for your patience and flexibility. Sometimes only Britt goes, and sometimes she goes over!)
Thank you for being here with us! We hope this makes you feel more connected in an increasingly disconnected world.

EP 160 - Missing mom, Philippines prep, rushing art, and the stole our free sign.
Britt misses her mom, immunizations for Philippines, marriage changes, and they stole the free sign from the front yard. Britt wishes she could laugh about this with her mama, so she records this instead. Winter is thawing out and the girls are riding bikes and becoming more and more of who they are. Britt tries to give herself grace and time around her creative projects and Saxon's at the gym. We will always be sad. And we are alive now.

EP 159 - For The Record before LA and Britt's birthday
Before Britt goes to LA and Saxon joins her, Britt puts life on record in advance of flying tomorrow. For the record, she needs her kids to be cared for by Jaja and Pa. And she needs the godparents to step into the role. And if you don't know or aren't sure, let's talk. It will take a village. It already does. This is Britt's first birthday without mama. Nya doesn't want her to go. She is hella emotional, as usual. And needs to do her will and advance directive. We love you. I love you Seylah and Nya.

EP 158 - Britt has Covid, our anniversary, welcoming winter and forced rest.
Britt has Covid as soon as she slows down. The universe will sit you down. Saxon and Britt's 8th anniversary (since they met in Palm Springs) is Dec 31st. Kuumba is the 6th day of Kwanzaa - Creativity - this is fitting for us, our life, what we are constantly creating and evoling and uncovering together. Looking forward to making and creating miracles in 2024.

EP 157 - Break down on the train - everything cancelled except rest

EP 156 - Signing off for the year - crying in the car, rage room, wintering, how we love.
Britt cries in her car again. Saxon decides to stop doing the podcast. Our life is not content, may we find contentedness in being present more than recording. But I also really believe in recording and time stamping as a way to create culture and history and stay present and listen. A bit of a puzzle but we are figuring it out. Is it helpful to me, to our marriage, to our listeners? It's not helpful for Saxon so he's taking a pause. I am deciding what I want and need to do. For now, I am going into hibernation until January to cry, dream, winter, clean the house and grieve my mother. Thanksgiving was BRUTAL. I don't expect Christmas to be any easier. Seylah's birthday is this weekend. We are here. We love you. Thank you for going on this ride with us. We'll see in you in January - and you can always join Britt on The Overflow - her substack offering - https://imbabyluck.substack.com/
