Episode 132: Solar Flares
We managed our second podcast for the month. This early morning recording has us talking about the cell phone outage and what an apocalypse looks like for the Thomas family. We dug into a couple true crime shows and learned that the internet is wild. Abby's birthday is on the horizon so don't forget to pencil in celebrating on her behalf anytime in March.

Episode 131: Tree's Still Up
Last year we released 13 podcasts and this year Abby has already read that many books. Chat with us about how we are like the Kelce family, Abby's reminisces about her kidney stone and yes how our Christmas tree is still up.
Also throw some thoughts to our pal Phillip Smith who is recovering after a fall off a ladder.

Episode 130: Meh
Hey we missed you. It's been busy. What better way to ease back into things than to talk about old nostalgic places we used to eat at back in the day. So many have come and gone. We confront some adult decisions and how Harlan defeated the potty monster. Thanks for listening! Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/closeenough.

Episode 129: Bussy
At the beginning of the month 8 of us went to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. Most of the people there ( minus wives who hadn't met us yet) were in attendance on that day but furthermore they've been pieces of our lives for about 30 years. We recorded two sessions, all girls and all guys. The guys get the spotlight first as Matt Stokes, Seth Thatcher, Jason Ellis and Gary talk about their friendships, marriage and more.

Episode 128: Magnesium Spray
Oh a fun week. It's all over the board as we talk about some holistic approaches that Abby takes to health. We discuss Miranda Lambert stopping her concert for some selfie takers and peel back some curtain on our love languages. Hope you enjoy! Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/closeenough.

Episode 127: Thomas Family Trip
Vacation season and this year we went to Disneyworld. For all the pictures of fun and happiness we struggled but made the most of it. Car rides and dark rides were on the list. Harlan had fun at our expense and even Charley found some bright spots. Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/closeenough.

Ben Miller
I like the content and very entertaining and relatable parenting advice. We have a daughter close to the same age. Keep it up.
Relatable
👏This podcast is so relatable it makes me feel like my husband and I are more normal that I realized. Gary and Abby present a less than perfect and polished perspective of life, parenting and relationship goals. I listen to this podcast while beekeeping and I find myself laughing out loud and nodding along. Great job guys! Looking forward to listening through the back log and the future episodes!

These are two of my best friends making a show that makes me feel like I’m not alone in my struggle of adulthood and parenthood. Thanks for making great content Gary and Abby and inviting all of us into your lives so we can feel semi-adequate about ours too. Great listen!
