U.S. Maternity leave, toddler tantrums & why do we call it “football”?! Jun 11, 2026 3935 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we go DEEP on the US maternity leave problem (did you know in 1919, 37 out of 38 industrialized nations adopted 14 weeks of paid leave… and the US was the ONE that held out?! And 100 years later, 1 in 4 American moms will go back to work within 2 weeks of giving birth?!). We learned SO much prepping for this episode & we're excited to figure out what we can do
Road trip with 2 under 2, deleting social media & should kids have chores?! Jun 8, 2026 4665 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday!!!! Jules is BACK from Cape Cod (with a hot take: there is nothing better than timing a girls trip with the premiere of Love Island!!!). And we officially took our first road trip with 2 under 2 (Dallas!!)… we have OPINIONS… is it actually easier to drive 3 hours or fly 30 minutes when you have a toddler and a newborn?! We break down the full case
The 411 on Newborns: Eating, Sleeping & Spitting Up (w/ Dr. Ari Brown) Jun 4, 2026 4226 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're back with Dr. Ari Brown (Pediatrician + author of the iconic 411 series) for our newborn 411 episode!! We are officially in the thick of it with Rocky and we had a LONG list of questions for her (+ a TON from you guys!).  We start with Dr. Ari walking us through "Hour 49" (the moment the wheels fall off after the hospital and you suddenly have a diffe
Adults-only dining, daddy-daughter dates & is THIS the only way kids actually learn?! Jun 1, 2026 3810 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday!!!! We are coming off of a SOCIAL weekend (read: Harrison is doing another fast, but we ALSO have tons of fun topics that came out of it). We start with a survey finding that's going viral: 75% of Americans say restaurants should have adults-only sections. 1) We kind of think this already exists (on the down low… hostesses let us know), and 2) the
Holding the line, location sharing & is optimization culture making us miserable?! May 28, 2026 4813 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we are SO BACK (lol… we're feeling like this is our first full on episode back since having Rocky 🥹) And we're getting into a bunch of stuff. A big one: "holding the line" as parents, especially around bedtime (our ask: this this necessary?!), and the broader conversation of rule vs. suggestion (and the importance of being consistent… which is something we nee
Neighborhood BBQ, staying up past bedtime & our first LIVE Q&A May 25, 2026 3298 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, it's what we call a quick "chit chat" episode to start off your 4-day work week :-) Harrison joins us for all of about a minute before we sent him home with the kids… but NOT BEFORE Tate said "hello" to the pod listeners (guys, she was so proud of herself for using the mic). We start with our MDW block party recap. We had 200+ people show up, the dunk tank
Night nurses, potty training prep & what is the etiquette for befriending a friend's friend? May 21, 2026 4677 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we have an unintentional Q&A episode because Alex put up a story box late last night, and we ended up answering your Qs for like… 45 minutes 🤭 So tons of practical stuff in here, including: WHY we decided to hire a night nurse and what it actually looks like for us (you guys had so many questions about this!), our potty training prep for Tate (she's 19 months
Doorbell friends, the eldest daughter effect & outsourcing your night nurse?! May 18, 2026 4555 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're talking about the lost art of the "doorbell friend" (we just learned we have these and it makes us feel like we're in a sitcom LOL). Which spirals into a whole convo about how in-person social interaction has plummeted and what can be done to bring back the 90s childhood mindset. Then we get into Memorial Day block party planning (watermelon seed spit
Teaching toddlers to share, Mother’s/Father’s day gifts & is the dad bod REAL?! May 14, 2026 3586 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we are deep in the weeds of toddler social skills, specifically: how to actually teach a toddler to share and the power of modeling behavior for toddlers because… they are watching (and copying) EVERYTHING. Then we recap Mother's Day (the four of us at the coffee shop, my protein pancakes at The Well, and then our chaotic visit to a new store in Austin (s/o

Our first postpartum date night, nanny share update & World Cup 2026 May 7, 2026 4363 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, Alex is officially BACK (kind of… NO PRESSURE (and we talk about this mindset in the ep!)). We have lots of updates (recording 1 non-guest episode per week has been hard on us lol)… BUT we're recapping our first date night post-baby (iHeart Country Music Festival!!) and the thing we did beforehand that made me SO excited to go. Other "IRL" stuff we get into: T
Everything you need to know about feeding your newborn (with The Baby Feeding Experts) May 4, 2026 5603 This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're joined by Kyla and Courtney (SLPs & IBCLCs) from Baby Feeding Experts for the feeding episode we NEEDED before the birth of baby #2.
