Okay, ready? Sure. Okay. Welcome back to another episode of Two Parents in a Podcast. Today it's one parent and Jules.
And one... I have to start with... Yesterday I was just looking at videos of like child-free things just to get some inspiration for some of the questions that people were asking. Good. Or some inspiration on response. And did you know that like there's a... a movement of like child free versus childless that those are two different things no i did not explain them to me a child free person is like a person that doesn't have children by choice and won't have children and then childless is like they just don't have kids yet they want kids they maybe want kids but they just don't have kids yet i don't know but i'm i'm now it's like my biggest thing of like why are we labeling people this way
Well, so child-free, just so I understand, child-free is like loud and proud and chosen.
Yes.
And is not going to have them. And basically, like, no further questions, please. I'm child-free.
Yeah. Okay. But I don't know what I am, child-free or childless. You can call me either.
Oh, yeah. Well, what would you prefer?
Neither. Neither. Okay. Honestly. Dog mom. Yeah. Anything but that.
Anything but that. Okay, well, yeah. I wouldn't even put it in a box. I would just be like, I have a kid and you don't. There, how about that?
I'm just existing in this world.
Yeah. Okay, so that's because I do see the guise of... So what Jules and I are going to do on this episode, and since you're listening, please like and subscribe and send it to a friend that is child-free, child-less, or with child. Or anything. Yeah. But we're going to go through there. So there's questions. So, you know, from the audience, right? There's friendship questions. There's motherhood questions. There's relationship questions. And there's career questions. And so we're going to go through them all. And one thing that I think is cool about the friendship question is we can do it for both sides. Yeah. Jules can answer from her side and I can answer from my side. And you might be wondering, where's Harrison?
I guess we should talk about that. He is in the great state of Minnesota. for a meeting with target a couple meetings actually so he's out on flock business today and i gotta say i've been eating a lot of the sticks the chicken sticks the flock chicken sticks phenomenal they're good they're i'm not just saying this i think they are far superior to all the other sticks on the market and i'm getting a nod of agreement from p
Yeah. And P's like the true. She's tested all of the chicken sticks. OK. And she is my favorite.
Flock is her favorite. OK. That's that's unbiased. I'm telling you. You guys can also go taste test them and you'll you'll have the same results that we do. I got to say, too, for the parents listening. Proud mom moment. I mean, he didn't know he did it, but Rocky did sleep eight hours. Oh, wow. That's unbelievable. Like, I'm shocked. So maybe it was like post travel. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah. He wore jeans on the airplane. I saw that. I mean, Hannah Chody, my favorite character on the podcast. She's like a man after my own heart. Like, she likes to wear jeans on an airplane. I will never. Like, literally never. Why was Rocky wearing jeans on the airplane then? Just his first pair of jeans. Oh. You know? Are they like jeans?
Yeah, they're from Old Navy. They're real life denim. He looked so cute.
He did.
Jules, what do you wear on an airplane?
What I'm wearing right now. Is this Elwood? Like sweats. Yeah, sweats. Sweats. sweatshirt and always my um jean jacket because i love to have a jean jacket with me oh but i don't like it takes up so much room in a suitcase so like at the airport i'll always be in a jean jacket can't pack it yeah and you're wearing shorts though would you wear shorts on an airplane these are long shorts so you would wear them yeah as long as my like thigh wasn't touching the seat yeah yeah yeah agreed with that okay fair
