This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday!!! We're back in Austin after our family “vaccination” (lol iykyk ) in Colorado (and we have a lot to catch up on!!!). First: a question from a viral video that has literally broken our brains all week - are your friendships hobby-based or BUDGET-based?! (& why we think the answer depends on the city you live in.) Then we spend a solid 25 minutes doing SMASH or PASS on every detail we've heard from the Taylor Swift x Travis Kelce wedding, because there's just no other way to cover it… 1000 guests, MSG, Adam Sandler officiating, 20 minute vows, arcade games, Krispy Kreme trucks, the whole thing 🤯 (we hit every single one.) PSA: you do NOT have to like Taylor Swift to follow along… this became what WE would do at our wedding lol. Moving on, Harrison is officially declaring July 5th to be New Year's Day 2.0 (a little mid-year reset). Which somehow spiraled him into a pool update (and we genuinely need your help: is it OK to have grass around your pool or does it need to be pavers or turf?!). Following up on last week, we share the postpartum anxiety tools that actually landed from your messages: A.N.T.s (automatic negative thoughts!) and "name it to tame it" (there's real science behind why saying it out loud helps 🥹). Plus a TON more: is Love Island really worth the daily commitment?!, in-app purchases on kids' iPad games = predatory , 530A accounts, the fact that 1 in 3 adults over 25 live with their parents in the US (surprising but… kind of amazing?), parenting norms around the world, and Team USA is officially OUT of the World Cup 😭.
