Two Parents & A Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Happy Thursday! This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re TIRED (sorry!!!) — we’re low on sleep over here, but we’re sharing what we’re doing to try and fix that. We dive into the age-old debate: should you let your baby “cry it out”? (We’re figuring it out in real time.) And of course, we talk about all the sleep-deprived mishaps—can’t pay for dinner, left the car running, lost phones... it’s been a week. We also give a quick house update (spoiler alert: we still don’t know what’s happening, and we’re supposed to move in a week—fun!!). And in Things We DMed Each Other, we discovered laptops maybe shouldn’t sit on your lap?? Add that to the list of things no one warned us about. And for this week’s brain break—well, we needed one. So much so that we literally couldn’t remember what we were supposed to talk about. We LOVE YOU GUYS!

Happy Thursday! This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re talking about what it really means to have good neighbors—because as you guys put it, “you can renovate a house, but you can’t buy good neighbors.” We start with some Year 1 milestone updates (why am I irrationally sad?!), from moving Tate into her own room to starting solids (Harrison has officially been named Chief Solids Officer). Plus, we recap our first annual neighborhood block party—a new tradition in the making! Next, we break down what today’s ‘village’ to raise a child actually looks like—and specifically, how we’ve built ours. Then, we’re diving into communication in relationships (and in general!)—the good, the bad, and why ‘clean’ means something completely different to both of us. In Things We DMed Each Other, we have to talk about Frida’s breast milk-flavored ice cream (yes, really—it’s not an April Fools’ joke). And finally, we’re (well actually just me Harrison had to leave for a meeting LOL) responding to your comments before wrapping up. We LOVE YOU GUYS!

Welcome to the FIRST episode of Two Parents & A Podcast (feels weird not saying ‘back to another episode of Just Alex!!!’). Really gonna keep this low-key - this is the same show you guys know (and love?) - we just finally got around to that rebrand we’ve been promising. (Honestly how many more time could I have said “it’s just Alex aaaaaand Harrison’s here with me tooooo......” hahahha). So here we are, Two Parents & A Podcast - we’ll continue to invite y’all into our home weekly (sorry it’s so messy - we’re new parents) to talk all things parenting, relationships, trending topics, entrepreneurship, and the occasional conspiracy theory. On THIS WEEK’s episode - we get an update from Harrison on attending his first bachelor party as a dad. My first weekend alone with the babe had me thinking a lot about parental identity shift & grieving the pre-baby life, so we dive deep into this and my takeaways from the weekend (also just need to say - S/O TO SINGLE MOMS… you guys are super heroes). Next we’re laughing at the things we DMed eachother - backseat driving and having two babies at once (not twins??). Harrison DOESN’T laugh at the drunk confession I saw on IG that was hilarious. And we finish out the episode with a very valid questions: Where does your Girl Scout cookie money actually go?! One last thing, if you’re new here!!! If you came here for parenting advice - definitely the wrong podcast… But we try our best to share our experiences - this week y’all asked about when you should/when will we move the baby out of the bedroom (answer: we don’t know but we’ll obviously keep you updated). As always - LOVE YOU GUYS! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome to Two Parents & A Podcast!!!

We also talk about Harrison’s new IG fame (LOL), an update on the TikTok ban bet, and meme coins. Plus, we dive into bachelor/ette parties as parents AND do GUYS get baby fever???

Welcome back to Just Alex! In today’s episode, we’re talking about fertility after giving birth and trying for baby #2. This week we learned we need to be managing screen time for our 3-month-old (WHO KNEW?!). And I’m dealing with some serious nanny guilt (plus, guilt if I’m not being productive enough while the nanny is here (make it make sense!!!!)). We also talk betting markets again (I’m still so confused that you can bet on ANYTHING) - the TikTok ban, the U.S. possibly buying Greenland, and you can finally bet on the U.S. annexing Canada. OK - Love you guys! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex! 00:02:54 How old were you when you realized you didn’t have a good voice? 00:05:40 Nanny guilt 00:11:08 Betting on the Tik Tok ban 00:16:00 The US is now buying Greenland?!

Welcome back to Just Alex! HAPPY NEW YEAR (absolute last week I can say this so I’m getting it in). We’re talking about the perks of a nanny share—we now have TWO babes at home every day (a little taste of what twins would be like!!) Plus, Harrison and I discuss how men’s sperm can affect pregnancy, the ins and outs of sperm donation (and whether he’s ever done it... 👀). We dive into the what ifs around Canada becoming the 51st state—does this mean he automatically gets U.S. citizenship?! 🤔 We’re laughing thinking about how we would explain this to Tate hahaha. We take a little brain break with a trip down memory lane with childhood nostalgia (Blue’s Clues, Beanie Babies & Princess Diana) and we have question for you guys: Who is the modern-day Princess Diana? Let us know!

Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex! So, hypothetically—if you’ve exhausted all resources and anticipated all needs—what’s the least amount of cries a 3-month-old could have in a day?! And who's gonna tell Harrison it's more than 3?? Anyways, Christmas/Hanukkah (Chanukah????) are next week, so we discuss what we were doing this time last year, what we’re getting each other as presents, and do newborns need gifts?! (Is a stock a gift??) Then we try out some new segments: Things We’ve DMed Each Other (Influencers making fun of their kids, Bitcoin at $100k), Biggest Parenting Fail of the Week (write us in yours!!), and Today I Learned (see: Chanukah). OK—HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex! First up, we’re talking about what it’s really like to go from having a nanny to being on our own—spoiler alert: the house is a disaster. Harrison talks us through his visa renewal process (he got it!!!!) and we touch on our potential plans to move abroad anyways?!  We just got back from our LA trip where a restaurant served Harrison raw chicken… Yep, that happened. So we spent like 20 mins recounting our worst restaurant horror stories!!!  We wrapped it up with a few quick new parent topics - dream feeding, bringing babies to bars, tipping babysitters, and bringing your newborn out in public.  As always - thanks for listening - WE LOVE YOU GUYS!  ---------------------------------------------------------------- Timestamps:  00:00:00 Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex! 00:00:45 When is it socially acceptable to start saying happy holidays? 00:03:20 Our first week without the nanny  00:07:00 We’re moving abroad?!  00:13:45 Trial and error on traveling with a newborn 00:15:40 Why and when should restaurants comp meals 00:28:00 Waffle House fantasy football punishment 00:30:55 How to go to any concert for less than $100 00:37:05 Why don’t men wash their sheets? 00:38:40 Dream feeding  00:40:00 Do you tip babysitters? 00:41:08 Should babies be allowed in bars? 00:41:47 Listener question - taking your newborn out and about 00:46:05 LOVE YOU GUYS!  #justalexpod ---------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week:  - RoBody: Go to https://www.ro.co/ALEX to find out if you’re covered for free.

Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex! This week, we dive into some of the baby rules we wish we could break (if it was safe)—like co-sleeping or holding our baby in the car (we know, we know). Also - not really a rule - but are parents swearing in front of their kids in 2024?! Then, it’s all about newborn travel: I'm stressed about flying with our baby (maybe because we’ve done it once before) while Harrison’s surprisingly chill about it (also maybe because we’ve done it once before). Finally, we talk about dad bods (and mom bods!)—how parenthood is changing both of our approaches to fitness, and how we’re adjusting as parents. As always, thanks for tuning in, and we love you guys! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Timestamps:  00:00:00 Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex!  00:00:40 Is it OK to swear in front of your kids?  00:03:24 Travel anxiety with a newborn  00:05:40 Newborn feeding schedule & planking while pumping 00:12:25 The #1 baby “rule” we wish we could break 00:18:59 Addiction to buying baby clothes w/ Apple Pay 00:20:27 Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour 00:23:35 Running on the trails in Austin 00:27:00 Running marathons should be fun 00:36:00 Harrison thought he was going to die in Burma 00:43:30 Valentine’s Day debacle 00:49:03 Thank you for listening!!  #justalexpod ---------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week:  - HelloFresh: Get 10 FREE meals at https://www.HelloFresh.com/freejustalex.

Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex! If you're looking for a little Thanksgiving brain break, you're in the right place. We dive into the differences between the drinking age in the US vs. Canada, share stories about our earliest experiences with alcohol, and discuss the pros and cons of being the "party house."
