Two Parents & A Podcast

Back-to-school, scrapbook nights & do you turn on the ‘big light’?!

Two Parents & A Podcast

Show Notes

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Monday from Vancouver!! (Let us know if we should pick this studio up and drop it in Austin, because we are officially feeling like we need a remodel..)

Ok guys, it's back to school time, so we're taking a sec to ask YOU: how are you feeling?? We can feel the energy shift. We don't know what this season is like as parents yet, but we can absolutely remember shopping for a new pair of True Religions and heading to the bookstore for school supplies. WOW, nostalgia.

So the episode… travel is on the mind (we know, SORRY, we talk about flights more than your average pod.. but hopefully something in there is helpful!) The 24-hour cancellation window is NOT always 24 hours, and we make the official case for the back row of the plane with kids (still not as elite as the bulkhead).

Then a lot of random fun stuff: sponsored sorority recruitment (get your bag, girls!!), the "big light" debate (are you a big light house or a lamp house?!), signing up for fall activities, and Bluey is apparently PERFECT for dogs.. Jules tried it on her Ginny during a Dallas trip and has a full report. Plus Tate is officially getting into fashion 🥹 and we're thinking it's time for full Mary-Kate and Ashley family matching.

Then in Harrison's little corner: the girls are fighting!! (Jules's words lol) We get into the neighborhood drama between two major CEOs playing out on Twitter, and Starlink on planes.. you can FaceTime mid-flight now, but SHOULD you?! Ok, we had to wrap quickly because we were timing out at the studio, but we LOVE YOU GUYS!

Hope everyone has a great week :-)

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy FRIDAY!! We open with the debate you guys started: permanent holiday lights. The comments say they’re the answer to our white lights vs. colored lights problem.. we say lights go UP and lights come DOWN (or you lose the specialness!!). Tacky or worth it, we need votes!!
