Welcome to the FIRST episode of Two Parents & A Podcast (feels weird not saying ‘back to another episode of Just Alex!!!’). Really gonna keep this low-key - this is the same show you guys know (and love?) - we just finally got around to that rebrand we’ve been promising. (Honestly how many more time could I have said “it’s just Alex aaaaaand Harrison’s here with me tooooo......” hahahha). So here we are, Two Parents & A Podcast - we’ll continue to invite y’all into our home weekly (sorry it’s so messy - we’re new parents) to talk all things parenting, relationships, trending topics, entrepreneurship, and the occasional conspiracy theory.


On THIS WEEK’s episode - we get an update from Harrison on attending his first bachelor party as a dad. My first weekend alone with the babe had me thinking a lot about parental identity shift & grieving the pre-baby life, so we dive deep into this and my takeaways from the weekend (also just need to say - S/O TO SINGLE MOMS… you guys are super heroes).


Next we’re laughing at the things we DMed eachother - backseat driving and having two babies at once (not twins??). Harrison DOESN’T laugh at the drunk confession I saw on IG that was hilarious. And we finish out the episode with a very valid questions: Where does your Girl Scout cookie money actually go?!


One last thing, if you’re new here!!! If you came here for parenting advice - definitely the wrong podcast… But we try our best to share our experiences - this week y’all asked about when you should/when will we move the baby out of the bedroom (answer: we don’t know but we’ll obviously keep you updated).


As always - LOVE YOU GUYS!
