This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re officially in the last month of pregnancy (HOW did that happen?!) and yes I was emotional Monday about transitioning from a family of 3 to 4… and I’m even more emotional now (sorry HORMONES).We talk about what this transition actually feels like, how we’re trying to soak up this final stretch before baby #2 arrives, and a concept I’ve been hearing a lot lately: the “last of the firsts.” We also share some toddler “spring break” ideas that have been

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, someone hit our PARKED car and drove off… which quickly turned our neighborhood into a full-blown detective operation. Ring cameras were reviewed, theories were formed, and the neighborhood group chat is working overtime trying to figure out WHO hit the car.Before we get there, we talk about the emotional side of preparing for baby #2 — including the weird “grief” mom’s experience going from one kid to two — and when toddlers ACTUALLY understand there’s a

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast we’re celebrating Harrison’s BIRTHDAY (with a gift reveal on camera!!), debating a tiny relationship lie that has the internet divided (it involves key lime pie lol), and talking about a parenting question we genuinely didn’t know the answer to: what bathroom should girl dads take their daughters to in public?! We get into the new screen time guidelines for kids from the American Academy of Pediatrics and why the conversation around screens is shifting from

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast we start with an underrated friendship milestone from Sunday night: the friends you can sit in silence with. The ones you can cook dinner with, hang out with, and not feel the need to fill every moment with conversation. Then we recap Jules turning 30 (!!) in New York — including a pro-tip on how to pull off a surprise and a dinner rec that’s AMAZING for big groups.Next we get into one of the funniest internet moments currently taking over our FYPs: burger

Two Parents & A Podcast ·

2026/03/05

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re back with pediatrician Dr. Ari Brown for the ultimate 411 on toddler nutrition and eating habits—from starting solids at 6 months to navigating picky eating without turning dinner into a power struggle.We break down why “food before 1 is just for fun” isn’t actually true, the best first foods to introduce (it’s NOT what you think!), and the biggest choking hazards parents need to watch for—plus how to tell gagging vs. choking in the moment.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re audio only (SORRY, but that’s IRL recording, baby. PS we saw your feedback (THANK YOU!!!) and we’re gonna try this for a few weeks before regrouping). ANYWAYS — we’re starting with a relationship milestone nobody talks about: the first time you see your partner truly sick. It turns out it teaches you just as much about a relationship as your first vacation together… maybe more.From there, we get into the modern logistics of adult life, including the

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, you get Two Parents for about 10 minutes… and then Jules takes over for Harrison. So for everyone who’s been asking in the comments for more Jules: this one’s for you (hi, mom). (ps. I still will not be going on camera. Don’t push it guys lol -Jules)Before the handoff, we cover a LOT. Pregnancy sickness recovery being wildly unfair, whether we’re accidentally becoming sourdough people (apparently like Taylor Swift?!), and what it’s like doing Expo West with

2026/02/24

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re recapping our BABYMOON in Miami… which did NOT go exactly as planned (read: food poisoning + a hospital visit) — but somehow we still had the best time!! 🤍We start with the biggest surprise of the trip: Miami Beach being way more family-friendly than we expected (aka we’re already picturing trips with BUBBER and the new little guy). The first day and a half were AMAZING… and then things took a sharp turn. We break down the food poisoning saga, whether

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re getting ready to BABYMOON. If you’re watching this, we’re on the beach right now (yay) trying to figure out what you even call a babymoon for baby number two (because “babymoon” feels… aggressive). Sprinkle? Second moon? TBD. Either way, we recorded this episode right before heading out and immediately spiraled.We start with trip planning debates, pregnancy food rules (can you eat beef carpaccio while pregnant?), and the age-old question of what

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re answering YOUR questions - but fair warning: we had a lot to say (40 mins worth) before we got there. In our defense: shampoo recs, steak temperatures, and daddy/daughter dances felt important at the time (LOL). OK SO FIRST… We talk about 5AM toddler mornings (is this a phase?!), using ChatGPT to survive your inbox, and the very unexpected realization that if you have a nut allergy… you might want to check your shampoo ingredients. We also debate

2026/02/12

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we might have cracked the code on toddler mornings… and it’s not waking up earlier.We’re talking 5am wakeups, third-trimester exhaustion, and the mindset shift that completely changed how we handle that first hour of the day. Instead of surviving it, we’re cooking through it. Eggs, repetition, more eggs, toddler “responsibility,” and why letting Tate crack the eggs might actually be the best parenting hack we’ve stumbled into. From there, we rant about

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re back with Dr. Ari Brown - board-certified pediatrician and author of the bestselling 411 series - for The 411 on TODDLER DISCIPLINE. And just like last time, she comes in with the calm, practical answers we all need when our toddlers are… doing the most.We start with the big foundational question: what “discipline” actually means (spoiler: it’s teaching NOT punishment) and when it realistically begins. Dr. Ari breaks down the cues that your toddler is

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re very much in planning mode - talking babymoon ideas, future parenting rules (we NEED your thoughts on the bed-making debate), and yet another round of nesting. We start with coffee shop talk (yes, the same one we’ve been talking about for the last two weeks), why good habits take forever to build while bad ones take about two days, and the current parent uniform: sweatsuits with mystery stains. From there, it’s full nesting energy (again) - labeling

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, you already know the phase we’re in - MORE nesting, third-trimester TIRED, and getting ready for baby #2 while CONTINUALLY realizing how much community matters.We kick things off with a micro-bicker (is this a new thing?!) that isn’t really a REAL debate because we agree (fake flowers vs real flowers), then get into how I’m scheduling rest for “third trimester tired” instead of fighting it. We revisit last week’s Bicker of the Week (drying off in the shower

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re talking about a little bit of everything. We start with Austin’s first real snow day (at least since we’ve lived here lol) and how snow days feel wildly different as a kid vs. as a parent. We talk Dry January, whether it’s rude to ask someone why they don’t drink, and a truly wild babysitting story involving lime-a-ritas (the liability alone???). Then it’s parenting and pregnancy updates: how every family develops its own language (how Tate became

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, it’s one of those episodes where nothing is technically related… and yet somehow it all is. Very Friday energy (but HAPPY MONDAY!!!).We kick things off with Tate entering her unzipping era (a big-girl milestone no one prepares you for!!!) and come to terms with the fact that we’ve officially become the parents we SWORE we’d never be (hahahaha). We have another SHOW REC (is this our new thing???) - His & Hers.. Then react to Matt Damon and Ben Affleck’s take

2026/01/22

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re deep in the 1-to-2 kid transition and debating the question everyone has opinions on: is the biggest life shift going from 0–1 kids, 1–2 kids, or 2+ kids? We get into what actually feels different this time around, what we weirdly care less about, and why confidence the second time somehow still leads to reorganizing half the house (yes sorry we’re still on this topic - WE HAVE UPDATES!) We kick things off with a mommy & me dance class announcement

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we have a LOT of baby #2 updates after our third-trimester OB appointment. Things escalated quickly and apparently Harrison is now delivering the baby??? (Our doctor casually suggested that dads can deliver the second baby (???) and we’re still unpacking that), plus we talk through the breech situation (Harrison keeps calling it “THE BREACH” like a contract hahahah) and why I’m choosing NOT to do anything to flip him.From there, we get into what feels

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we are DEEP in nesting mode (like… vacuuming-baseboards level nesting) and officially debating whether audiobooks “count” as reading (jury is still out (kind of) PLEASE settle this debate in the comments).We kick things off with a Bring It On reference (is that anyone else’s FAVORITE movie??). Then we debunk the “gum stays in your stomach for 7 years” myth (plot twist: it does NOT), revisit our gift-returning etiquette as a couple, and activate full “dad

You guys loved her last episode, and we’re so excited to officially bring her on as a RECURRING GUEST once a month!!Dr. Ari breaks down what toddlers actually understand before they can talk (spoiler: a lot), what counts as a real “word,” and the core language milestones between 12–24
