We were so lucky to have our delightful, super-Mom, and environmental activist, Tina Sanchez with us to talk all about her experience of adoption her awesome little boy. We learned a lot and we know you will too--whether you have kids or not, this is a topic that effects us all. This is our first part in our three-part series on family planning. Real talk: we'll probably do a lot more than three because we hear parenting/child...

The dashing and brilliant Christopher Cappiello sits down with us to talk about religion! Surprisingly, none of us were immediately sent to hell (yet). Specifically, we talk about when one partner is a member of a religion and one is not--will there be ANY disagreement in this episode? Will we end the podcast after this episode? Will we all have to bow to a cat god after this (hint: too late)? We hope you enjoy listening to Chris&...

This week we sit down with former rideshare driver, and our friend, James Elden! We learn that Tina-Louise has been stalked by a number of Uber drivers and Tara Jean is blissfully unaware that anything bad could possibly happen in a total stranger's car. The great news is Uber/Lyft safety has come a long way and if you ever use rideshare, you should download safety apps and utilize emergency tools when you use the services. Bo...

We cannot WAIT for you to listen to this fascinating episode about natural childbirth! As our regular listeners know, neither one of us has children for reasons including, "none of your business," and, "can you ask me a more relevant question," but hearing Shea's pregnancy story is inspiring, beautiful, and 100% made us cry. She talks all about having hyperemesis gravidarum which is a fancy way of saying 'mo...

Loading up the big guns now! In this episode, we address the ever taboo subject of cheating. Is it worse when you're married or is it worse when you're single? How do you move forward in your relationship? Does it always mean the end? Also, there are (depressingly) many resources for married people to find partners for extramarital affairs. WHAT IS THIS LIFE?! Luckily, we have the talented, and very honest, Sean Michael Bo...

The uber-talented Scott Palmason sat down with us to talk about his experience with divorce. This is a subject that almost no one wants to talk about but let's face it--nearly every single person reading this has first-hand experiences with the Big D! (Also, some of us would like better experiences with other types of 'Big D.' We digress. But also singlevsmarriedpodcast@gmail.com) Divorce is a mixed bag of emotions...

We hope everyone is staying safe out there! This episode was recorded prior to learning that no one washes their hands (why are some people so gross?) and that America is very concerned about how much pooping they will be doing in their own homes. Hope our plumbers are ready for this poop-demic... The super adorable Megan Brasfield sat down with us to talk about her current relationship with her long-distance boyfriend who lives i...

Have you worn out your favorite pajamas yet? Us too! No matter how many holes we have in our pants, we're pressing on with this week's episode. (This was recorded pre-COVID, so if it sounds like we still had hope and wonder in our voices, that's why.) At any rate, we had a FANTASTIC conversation with the wildly impressive and professional badass, Christie Clough Bishop about being the breadwinner in a relationship. Did...
