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 for each (and the verdict surprised even us).
Then we get into Harrison officially deleting social media from his phone (goodbye doomscrolling) and what he's doing to "replace" that time (Morning Brew!), which leads Alex to a BIG announcement: we are officially starting a Substack!!! Coming Thursdays (we think) starting next week (we think), plus you guys already know but next week we're ALSO moving to 3 episodes a week (Mon/Wed/Fri), which Harrison is suddenly calling a trial but we are not.
We get into all things parenting: the mom who couldn't pump at a spa and went VIRAL (uhhh the law is the law!!), the impact of a dad on his daughter's self-esteem before age 5, what we learned at the Pure Mama x Nuna motherhood panel (postpartum mood disorders can show up as OCD, rage, paranoia, psychosis & more), and Rocky's reflux update because Dr. Ari's advice changed EVERYTHING.
Of course we have the fun stuff: Belmont Cameli is NOT giving us the ick (also I swear if we heard the name before having Rocky he would be a Belmont right now), West & Amanda are in Italy and the spit-gate video is taking over the internet (are they in on the joke or are they solid-coring?!), our THINGS WE DMED EACHOTHER on Esther Wojcicki's iconic advice "don't do anything for your kids that they can do themselves" (she raised the YouTube CEO + the 23andMe CEO so… yeah we're listening), and TWO BICKERS OF THE WEEK: are some nicknames off limits in your own household (Tay vs. Tate!!!), and waiting for a specific parking spot when there are 12 others available 😭
Finally we need YOUR info in the comments: how & when do we implement chores?! (p.s. we know not any time soon - this just randomly came up lol)
LOVE YOU GUYS!
