Episode Details

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re talking house upgrades (sorry Jules), hosting duties, and FAFO parenting (is anyone else seeing this EVERYWHERE?). We kick things off with a travel insurance debate (is it a scam or are we just unlucky?), a pilot who called in “not feeling it,” and a quick convo about why no one trusts the media anymore 😬

In our house update, we break down where we’re splurging vs. saving (somehow both at the same time), review Flock’s new turkey bacon jerky (no free ads LMAO), and share a “pinch me” moment from this week around the neighborhood.

We’re also hosting a baby shower (surprise - the neighbors are having a baby!!!!!)— and this is gonna be fun (there will be beer in bay bottles). Plus, I reflect on my breastfeeding & pumping journey (spoiler alert: Sunday’s episode is a lactation consultant!!), and we wrap with Things We DMed Each Other: adult Happy Meals (yes, really) and our take on the FAFO school of parenting.

OK LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
