Back to School: Release the Teachers!

Two Awesome People ·

2025/08/14

The kids are going back to school—hallelujah! Kelly’s ready to hand over the summer demons to their new caretakers (aka teachers), while Don somehow turns it into a TED Talk on “The Five Qualities of a Great Educator” and the phrase “old hat.” We cover everything from first-day hooky plans, to why “go get ’em, tiger” might embarrass your child just enough, to the great sweet-pickle debate of 2025. Also featuring: secret handshakes at drop-off, optimism haze, and Don’s ongoing suspicion ...

Simplify without Going Full Applesauce

Two Awesome People ·

2025/08/11

Don and Kelly set out to make the best podcast in the history of podcasts, armed with blind optimism, hunger, and a questionable take on applesauce. In this episode, they tackle the art of simplifying your life—physically, mentally, and digitally. From decluttering closets to trimming down your calendar, saying no to unnecessary commitments, and resisting the siren call of 18 streaming subscriptions, they cover it all.

Two Awesome People ·

2025/08/07

Don and Kelly are diving headfirst into the wonderful, stressful, therapeutic chaos of projects. From roadside furniture makeovers to 80-foot backyard rock walls (allegedly), they explore why starting a project might just be cheaper than therapy — but also way sweatier. They chat about the difference between a project and a hobby, the fine art of quitting halfway, and what happens when couples collaborate (hint: it involves small bathroom lines and big opinions). Also in this episode: Why mon...

Guilt Runs and Kegel Goals: Exercise

Two Awesome People ·

2025/08/04

Don and Kelly lace up their sneakers (reluctantly) and dive into the uphill battle that is working out in middle age. From guilt-fueled jogs to fantasies about ellipticals and matching pajama sets, they explore the why behind their workouts—and the many reasons they'd rather not. Don brags about push-ups, Kelly questions every decision, and together they try to make peace with sore joints, fading metabolisms, and the eternal quest to not feel like trash. It’s brutally honest, occasional...

How To Say Nothing Well : Communication for Dummies

Two Awesome People ·

2025/07/31

In this episode of Two Awesome People, Don and Kelly dive deep into the chaos and comedy of everyday communication—interrupting, zoning out, ghosting, Zoom faux pas, texting etiquette, and who deserves the last word (or stare). From decoding sarcasm to dissecting the difference between listening and actually listening, they unpack how we all mess up talking to each other—lovingly, of course. They share pet peeves (and Don becomes one), debate hugging as a love language, and discover Kelly’s o...

Two Awesome People ·

2025/07/28

In this refreshingly honest (and occasionally steamy) episode, Don and Kelly tackle three hot topics: how to motivate your kids without losing your mind, why they’ve been showering together for 15 years, and whether leveling up your home is worth the financial stress. Along the way, they question everything from middle school report cards to HGTV-induced delusions, all while trying not to resent each other—or their children. It’s real talk about parenting, partnership, personal growth, and pl...

Will You Be My Friend… Again?

Two Awesome People ·

2025/07/24

Don and Kelly are tired. Like, post-wedding, post-party, need-a-nap tired. But that doesn't stop them from diving deep into the messy, hilarious, heartwarming world of adult friendship. From lost college BFFs and three-strike friendship rules to proximity politics and the myth of the “spouse as best friend,” they unpack what it means to make—and maintain—connections in adulthood. Plus: Don reveals his shameless friend-making tactics, Kelly admits she might have Resting Bitch Face, and they bo...

Saint Kelly and the Funky Officiant

Two Awesome People ·

2025/07/14

In this delightfully meandering episode of Two Awesome People, Don and Kelly dive headfirst into the murky waters of redefining yourself. Is it a bold new life path… or just painting your nails bright pink before officiating a wedding? The line is blurrier than a Trader Joe’s canned wine buzz. They tackle everything from midlife funks, career pivots, and preschool parent politics, to imposter syndrome, pole dancing aspirations, and the profound question: does a nose piercing count as characte...

I’ll Be in the Closet (Not Like That)

Two Awesome People ·

2025/07/10

The kids are gone, the house is quiet, and Don might already be sick of Kelly… just 90 minutes into their solo time. In this episode, the Two Awesome People explore the elusive art of balance—between partners, kids, friends, and that all-important me time (which may or may not include hiding in a dark closet). Kelly dreams of peaceful reading and photo organization, Don dreams of silence and possibly screaming into a truck steering wheel. Together, they unpack how couples stay connected, how ...

Running Low on Brain Cells and Good Decisions.

Two Awesome People ·

2025/07/07

In this episode, Don and Kelly wade into the murky waters of decisions—big ones, small ones, and the oddly specific ones like whether to buy “just tomato” with zero context. They debate instinct vs. logic, emotional guts, decision fatigue, and why kids prefer to poop with a direct line of sight to family dinner. And together, they declare themselves Super Deciders—a superhero duo powered by mediocrity, emotional clarity, and mild procrastination. Also on the docket: editing porn (hypothetical...

Float, Don’t Judge

Two Awesome People ·

2025/07/03

It’s summer, baby! And in this very chill, very unscheduled episode, Don and Kelly dive into the season of tank tops, tomato-based cocktails, and zero plans. They talk favorite childhood vacations (shoutout to tiny car TVs and burned noses), why they’re not sending their kids to camp, the underrated magic of Catalina, and what makes a perfect summer day (spoiler: floating is involved). Don defends fireworks, Kelly defends Bloody Marys, and both of them agree—this is a judgment-free summ...

Two Awesome People ·

2025/06/30

In this laugh-happy episode of Two Awesome People, Don and Kelly take a deep dive into the power of laughter—from giggles to guffaws, fake laughs to dad jokes, and the questionable art of peeing-your-pants-funny moments.

Surprise! (Or Not)

Two Awesome People ·

2025/06/26

Kelly hates surprises. Don thinks they’re essential. So what happens when a control freak and a spontaneous aficionado talk about the power of surprise? This episode, apparently. Join Kelly and Don as they unpack everything from surprise parties gone wrong to accidental emotional breakthroughs, unexpected kid jokes, naked hallway streaker, and whether or not drawing butts on grocery lists is a good thing. If you’ve ever said “shut up” out of joy or ruined a surprise with overplanning, this on...

He Had The License. She Had The Hug.

Two Awesome People ·

2025/06/23

The kids are home. The interruptions are real. And the question of the day is… why are we still together? In this brutally honest, hilarious, and unexpectedly touching episode, Don and Kelly reflect on 25 years of love, fights, alpha hugs, weird insecurities, solid hand massages, and a lot of sighing (which may or may not be a cry for connection). From high school hallway crushes to adult debates about pool cover blame, they dig into what makes a long-term relationship tick—and occasion...

I'm Not 42!

2025/06/19

In this episode, Kelly and Don dive headfirst into the glory and weirdness of getting older. From 5 a.m. wakeups and existential sleep spirals to midlife musings, missed careers, and the psychological politics of sending emails at 2 a.m.—it’s all on the table. They also debate the true meaning of “work-life balance,” confess to having zero interest in early morning board games, and discuss the art of rediscovering who you are in your 40s (hint: it might involve pottery or popcorn at 10 a.m.)....

Building Our Own Boat

Two Awesome People ·

2025/06/15

Don and Kelly hit record for the first time—and immediately regret it. From dodging video calls and debating the "power of no" to Kelly confessing she’s never used ChatGPT (and never will), this episode is a chaotic, hilarious intro to two people who’ve been together forever and still manage to surprise each other. Format? Unknown. Expertise? Questionable. Bathroom breaks? Urgent.
