Two Parents & A Podcast

• Colton Underwood & Jordan C. Brown on male infertility, IVF & daddyhood

  This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re joined by the Brown-Underwoods: Colton Underwood (former Bachelor, NFL alum, podcast host, and media personality) and his husband Jordan C. Brown (podcaster & soon-to-be-retired political strategist). SUCH a fun double date! We cover it all: their love story, male infertility (including sperm rehab?!), IVF, and the wild ride of planning a birth via surrogate. We also ask the big questions like—did they choose their baby’s gender? Will they have more kids? (AND who’s the better driver???). Plus: night nurses, sleep training, screen time (really ALL OUR USUALS) + whether their son will play football (the answer might surprise you), and a fun round of The New Parents Game. And don’t forget to check out Colton’s brand new show Are You My First?, premiering Monday, August 18, on Hulu in the U.S. and Disney+ internationally —we can confirm: it’s GONNA BE GOOD.

• Healthy relationship habits for new parents, postpartum depression & kindergarten cutoffs

  This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re sharing the relationship habits that have actually helped us (and YOU GUYS) stay connected as new parents — from daily 15-minute check-ins to remembering not to “talk through” your baby. We also talk about what it really means to support your partner through postpartum depression, and how we need to try going to bed at the same time (apparently this is a thing a lot of you guys do??). Before that, we dive into kindergarten cutoff dates (is it better to be old or young for your grade??), the great Diet Coke vs. Diet Pepsi debate, and our first ever MOVIE NIGHT REVIEW of Happy Gilmore 2. Plus, the new “fridge cigarettes” meme and a little closet clean-out convo (Harrison might need to watch the Marie Kondo show??). In Things We DMed Each Other, we’re taking on the hotel industry (check-in at 4pm, check-out at 11am? Really??) and decoding Gen Z’s newest phone greeting trend. WE LOVE YOU GUYS! Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:00:45 Closet cleanout: How do you decide what you keep and what goes? 00:05:13 Movie night: Happy Gilmore 2 00:10:43 Have you heard of a ‘fridge cigarette’? 00:15:18 Bicker of the Week: Diet Coke vs. Diet Pepsi 00:18:38 Kindergarten cutoff dates 00:24:28 Keeping your relationship healthy as new parents 00:25:02 Healthy relationships habit: 15 minutes per day to connect 00:28:08 Healthy relationships habit: Greeting your partner first 00:31:58 Healthy relationships habit: Meeting checklist 00:37:46 Healthy relationships habit: Ask for help & know it will be heard 00:39:43 Healthy relationships habit: Going to bed at the same time 00:46:19 Healthy relationships habit: Don’t keep score 00:47:30 Healthy relationships habit: Don’t talk through your baby 00:49:25 Healthy relationships habit: Supporting your partner with postpartum depression 00:58:45 Things We DMed eachother: Hotel check-in vs. check-out times are a scam 01:01:10 Things We DMed eachother: Why is Gen Z answering the phone like THIS? 01:04:00 LOVE YOU GUYS! #twoparentsandapod ---------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week: * Nurture Life: For 55% off your order + FREE shipping, head to https://www.NurtureLife.com/TWOPARENTS and use code TWOPARENTS. * Bilt: Earn points on rent and around your neighborhood, wherever you call home, by going to https://www.joinbilt.com/TWOPARENTS. * Greenlight: Don’t wait to teach your kids real-world money skills—start your risk-free Greenlight trial today at https://www.greenlight.com/TWOPARENTS. * Hungryroot: For a limited time, get 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

• Matt & Abby on internet hate, 2 under 2 & why they stopped showing their kids’ faces online

  It’s our first Sunday episode of Two Parents & A Podcast!!!! We’re kicking off our new DOUBLE DATE series — where we bring on other couples to talk about love, parenting, internet chaos, and everything in between — and who better to start with than Matt & Abby? If you’ve been on the internet in the last five years, you’ve likely seen Matt & Abby (https://www.youtube.com/c/MattAbby) sharing their relationship, growing family, and real-life moments with their millions of followers. We get into why they chose to vlog the birth of their sons, how their perspective shifted after baby #2, and what led them to stop showing their kids’ faces online. We also talk about dealing with internet hate, the one thing they wish they hadn’t posted, and how they draw boundaries as a couple who lives much of their life publicly. Oh — and we do, of course, get into a classic Bicker of the Week: how early should you get to the airport? Stay tuned for more guests on Sundays. LOVE YOU GUYS!

If you didn’t know—we’re launching a second weekly episode (stay tuned this Sunday)!! We break down the four new formats, how they’ll differ from the main show, and why we’re so excited to bring more voices into the mix. Before that, we’re debating whether you should kiss on the first date, reminiscing about OUR first date, and sharing a big “Bicker of the Week” moment: checking a bag vs. carrying on. We also chat about eating off your partner’s plate (guess who’s guilty), updated travel tips with a 10-month-old, and how to make childhood feel magical. Oh—and we reveal the best day of the week to travel (spoiler: it’s Saturday PM, and we explain why).

• 3 parenting decisions we changed our minds on, ChatGPT Barbie & baby proofing the house

  This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we’re talking about parenting decisions we’ve officially changed our minds on. From sleep training to breastfeeding timelines to actually caring about “firsts,” (yeah - Harrison really claimed he didn’t care!!!), we share what we thought we’d do before Tate was born… and what we’ve flip flopped to now (it’s called personal growth OK!!).  Plus: Tate is fully on the move, which means we’re in deep child-proofing mode (baby gates, outlet covers, the whole deal). We also catch you up on some fun home updates (yes to wallpaper!!), debate the best parking spot in this week’s Bicker of the Week, and react to the most Alex x Harrison coded collab of the year: Barbie x ChatGPT. Oh—and stay tuned at the end for yet another new segment idea - Harrison’s inspirational quote of the week. WE LOVE YOU GUYS!
