S2E15 PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN (we can't either)!
It's one of the most important episodes we've done because we've all been there. Missing life's greatest moments because we're face-down in our phone. Or maybe you've heard the sound of your kid say "you're always on your phone". We are so lucky to have Joey Odom on the show this week. He looks at our cultural problem and the solution he says has worked for him. It's one of those episodes that will have you taking action today!

S2E14 Brighton's No Gifts Party
Well it was bound to happen. Our kids have caught on to our signature "No Gifts Please" policy. Steve and Jenny discuss Jenny's oldest daughters reaction to learning her party is a "no gifts" party. Plus Steve's boys are growing up and asking to be treated like "big boys" much to the pain of his breaking heart.

S2E13 My Kids Are Asking About Atrocities
You want to be honest with your kids about history and the ways of the world but what happens when they're asking about things that are way too heavy. From Jenny's daughter asking about the Holocaust, to Steve's son asking about pink ribbons to show support for the family of a local 3rd grader who was killed in a car crash, we try to navigate the best we can.

S2E11 Maybe I should just let them kick the $hit out of eachother
Steve and Jenny are talking about discipline. When the kids start fighting are you the type to step in and settle things for them? Maybe it's time to let it play out and see who kicks the $hit out of the other one first. With kids 6 years apart, Jenny gets to skip this unpleasantry of parenting (so far) but will it last?
Customer Reviews
Women Can Camp Now
I love this podcast and both of you are amazing! Do either of you go back and listen to the podcasts? Honestly, I had to stop this one early because Steve was saying “like” way too much. As much as I love him, I just couldn’t. Sorry.
An epic diversion
Thank you for this great podcast! I am immensely enjoying listening to it and hearing the two of you together. It’s light-hearted yet meaty and a pleasant reminder not to take ourselves too seriously.
Great Podcast!
Thank you for making my commute more enjoyable!
