Episode Description

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast - we’re answering YOUR relationship questions! From how we met (and yes, we found the texts 😂) to who first brought up wanting a baby - we’re walking you through our full relationship timeline.

We get into the real-life relationship stuff - resentment, mental load, and the three easiest things you can do to be a better partner (according to us, obviously). Plus, what it’s actually like to share your relationship online.

Somewhere in the middle, there’s a quick Austin recs detour (s/o Carly), a micro Bicker of the Week about flowers (and old folks homes), and a recap of how our holiday cards went (we’ve flipped Harrison!!!).

LOVE YOU GUYS!!! Thanks for sending in such good questions ❤️
