    Dating Apps...for Brayden!

    Dating Apps...for Brayden!

    When Brayden issued his unexpected mea culpa, we knew this episode was going to be a rollercoaster of emotions—sprinkled with a signature dollop of our podcast's quirky charm. So gather around, listeners, as Denny, Amanda, Jams, and Brayden navigate the hilarious complexities of step-parenting, recount the adventures of a family day at the water park, and dive into the solitude of an empty home. We didn't just survive a stint alone in the house; we came out the other side with side-splitting stories to share, from home-alone paranoia to the oddities of the post-kids bedtime routine.

    Prepare to nod along and chuckle as we explore the dreams that shake us awake and the Walmart mix-ups that have us questioning reality. Our blended family brings a whole new meaning to love and laughter, where pinky promises still hold weight and dreams about infidelity lead to morning giggles rather than jealousy. And as Brayden steps into the role of reluctant coach, we reminisce about the pride, the missed bonding opportunities, and the post-practice dinners that cement our sense of community—even when the food disappoints.

    But the fun doesn't stop there; we gear up to play Cupid in a daring challenge to find Brayden not one, but five intriguing dates. Join us in the hilarity as we create a dating profile live on air and debate the potential pitfalls of this matchmaking escapade. It's a jocular journey through the trials of finding love, and you're invited to place your bets on which host will pick the least "crazy" date. So, kick back, plug in, and prepare for an episode that promises to tickle your funny bone and warm your heart, all at once.

Celebrate with us as we toast to passing state board exams and share in the giggles over a test-day blunder. It's the kind of chit-chat that turns friends into family, where personal milestones are as celebrated as the latest dad joke, and where every day brings a new saga to add to our collective memory bank.

    And for those who've ever stood on the sidelines of a youth sports field, you'll feel right at home. I peel back the curtain on the delicate dance of coaching, where wrangling kids' antics is as pivotal as game strategy. The parental peanut gallery takes center stage as we delve into the highs and lows of volunteer coaching, from dealing with drama to those heartwarming moments of community triumph.

    You Think YOU Have It Bad?

    You Think YOU Have It Bad?

    Ever found yourself in the curious position of working closely with your spouse and ex-spouse? That's our reality here, as Denny , alongside Amanda and Jams, pilot this podcast ship through the stormy seas of life's most peculiar stories and personal anecdotes. This week's adventure has us swapping cars like kids trade baseball cards, sharing yard triumphs, and surviving a spider-induced studio standoff that tested our mettle. But it's not all laughs; we also weave through the serious implications of a teacher's firing for advocating for a special needs student, sparking a fiery debate on privacy versus protection.

    Strap in for a ride on the wild side as we explore a mother's outlandish explanation for her child's medical condition involving superstitions and a wild cat. Yes, you read that right. Our dynamic as co-hosts, shaped and refined by the fires of post-divorce friendship, fuels discussions that are as enlightening as they are entertaining. We also shine a light on unconventional love stories, like that of a woman whose heart is big enough for a polyamorous relationship with dolls. It's a conversation that delicately balances between empathy and incredulity, and we promise you'll leave with a new perspective on the boundaries of companionship.

    The heart of our podcast, though, lies in the honest and sometimes raw exploration of relationships. We dive into the complexities of bisexuality and monogamy, dissect the trust (or lack thereof) within marital bonds, and ponder the crossroads faced when life paths diverge in matters of the heart. Plus, we round off with a candid chat about our collective disdain for car dealerships and the tangled web of friendships that can complicate or enrich our lives. Whether you're here for the camaraderie or the controversies, this episode promises a concoction of content as diverse as the lives we lead. Join us for tales spun from the threads of our very own experiences, right here, where the unexpected is the norm.

    Introducing Gabrielle Hopkins from The Wolf Project Inc

    Caught off guard by a podcasting blooper, we quickly regain our footing to bring you a compelling episode filled with insights and the unexpected. We kick things off with an honest moment of mishap—yes, we didn't hit record during a pivotal interview with Gabrielle Hopkins from The Wolf Project Inc. But fret not; we rectify our error and dive into a candid discussion about the daily battles she fights against online predators, the chilling swiftness with which they target the innocent, and the frustrating hurdles in bringing them to justice. Gabrielle's dedication to unmasking the dark underbelly of the internet, amidst the often disheartening responses from law enforcement, is nothing short of a crusade for our children's safety.

    Amid the earnest conversation, we weave in the lighter threads of life, embracing the humor and warmth of shared experiences. From baseball coaching antics and coaching team dynamics, to the quirky domestic debates over bathroom monopolization and the art of seasoning with salt, we cover all bases. Laugh along with the personal stories that remind us it's okay to sing off-key at life's curveballs and join us in reflecting on the importance of supporting one another through the trials and triumphs of family life. 

    As we conclude this episode, we're left with a poignant reminder of the ongoing fight against child exploitation and the necessity for legal reforms that will echo Gabrielle's impassioned plea. We may have stumbled at the start, but as we draw the curtain, we stand united in our mission to stir awareness, foster change, and protect the vulnerable. So gear up for a journey that spans from the heartwarming to the heart-stopping, with the unshakable knowledge that, through it all, Chico lives. Join us, and become a part of the conversation that's unafraid to face humanity's complexities.
