Are we too old to be 'cool' anymore?
What?
Maybe you have the answer to them. Jules, maybe you have the answer. Why does iced coffee taste so different between coffee shops? Like I get a cold brew and some cold brews I love and others I hate.
Because they're different types like the bean. It's the same thing as hot coffee. It's a different kind of bean.
Well, sometimes it's cold brew and sometimes it's iced coffee.
So is that what it is?
Like cold brew versus hot brewed iced. Coffee that they make cold.
So I need to start clarifying, is it iced coffee or is it cold brew? And maybe I don't like cold brew and I only like iced coffee.
Most of the time they'll say though, you say, can I have an iced coffee? And they'll say, do you mean cold brew?
Okay. Because I really like the Swedish Hill iced coffee slash cold brew, whatever they sell. But like this is from Two Hands and it just tastes like extremely bitter.
Yeah. I think it depends. So many variations. It's like, why do you like some hot coffee at some places and not other places?
Well, I'm not like a black hot coffee drinker, so I didn't actually know there was variants.
How does mom guilt manifest after missing the Easter egg hunt?
I love old school, just a Folgers coffee.
That feels on brand for you.
Yeah, it's right up my alley. Okay, ready? Are we recording? Are we picking up Maria's footstep? No? More or less. Okay. All right, ready?
Yeah.
Welcome to two parents in a podcast as Harrison sips his iced coffee. How's it going?
Good. When, when we had our office on Venice, I would go to this coffee shop. Um, it was beside our office. Our office was 11 Brooks Ave. One of my favorites offices that we've ever had. And the coffee shop there was amazing. Oh, I'd love to shut them out, but I forget.
I know the name, but I forget it too. Oh, that's going to drive me crazy.
It was so good. I think if I just pull it up, I'll just pull up the office address.
Okay. Well, one thing, one thing I'll say about Venice is I never realized that Venice in California has canals just like it. Is it named after the Venice in Europe?
Little Lunch.
Little Lunch. That's it. I'm so glad you got that name. I was just trying to be crazy. One of my favorites. Is Venice, California named after Venice, Italy? Is it Italy?
Great question. I have no idea. But we walk the canals.
That's what I'm saying. They're very similar. I mean, well, they're not similar, but they're a bit of an abbreviation of each other.
I think the Venice canals are really, really cool.
What does Alex mean when she says she's 'good with anything' for dinner?
They're insanely cool, but I don't think a lot of, like people think Abbot Kinney when they think Venice, California. They don't think the canal streets.
Yeah. Venice has a really great run club too. It's like massive. Maybe we can find a video that we can put up. The run club starts by running through the canals. And you like take over the canals. The cars can't move. It's like really awesome.
Did you hear me just say that's dope?
How do Harrison and Alex maintain a good relationship despite challenges?
The look we're getting from Julie is that we probably need to not have... So we record in our basement, you guys, and Maria's above us.
And if somebody above us is walking, sometimes you can pick up the noise. I think that you're good, though, H. I think she probably just went... Okay, he's running upstairs. Okay, so...
Thank you, Maria.
Oh, I don't know who that is.
That's Jules' mom.
Oh, my God. You know, quick little Lori or Nori?
Nori.
Nori Minich. Quick little Nori Minich story. Yeah. Nori Minich got us a house gift when we moved in. Do you remember what it was?
Yes, pepper.
It was a great pepper.
We use it all the time.
I use that pepper every day. And every day I think of your mom, Jules. How? Every single day. Because I use her pepper. It's great pepper.
It's honestly great. She actually listened last week for the first time in forever.
Oh, she's back.
How did we navigate buying a house together so quickly after dating 1.5 years?
We dropped, we lost a listener, and I'm really happy to know she's returned.
Shout out Nori.
What are our thoughts on renting vs buying our current house?
Well, she's commenting adorable on our photo, so it's nice to know she's come through the podcast as well. Phew. I mean, I was actually sad she stopped listening. I didn't understand why. I just, I didn't know. Besides the fact she doesn't probably have small children, not probably doesn't have small, she doesn't have small children.
