Super Familiar with The Wilsons
Marriage 2.0 with kids…and all the side quests! Super Familiar with the Wilsons is a weekly comedy podcast about second marriage blended family life, and the beautiful chaos of parenting, aging, and figuring it all out (again). Hosted by Amanda and Josh, partners in life, love, and side quests, each episode dives into real-life stories, quirky observations, listener emails, and spontaneous tangents that somehow always circle back to relationships, resilience, and the absurdity of modern life. Whether you’re navigating your own second act, raising kids who don’t want your help, or just wondering why birds seem to aim for your head, you’ll find humor, honesty, and heart here. Expect: offbeat storytelling, second-marriage dynamics, parenting fails, philosophical detours, and new friends you didn’t know you needed. Familiar Wilsons Media produces content to bring people together. We are curious, hopeful, and try not to take ourselves too seriously...admittedly, with varying degrees of success.

Barbecue-sauce “arson,” a stadium that literally farts during fireworks, and a coffee order that could break up a marriage, welcome to another perfectly unhinged conversation with our friend Gavin. We compare UK and US chaos, ride the annual “Merry Christmas vs Happy Holidays” outrage carousel, and BBQ sauce.
Gavin walks us through award winning pub bathrooms and a cursed KFC restroom, we investigate why the London Vel...
Amanda is beefing with a nine-year-old “lawyer of parenting,” Josh is emotionally held hostage by the phrase “I need to talk to you” via text, and Alexa has decided she also deserves hot cocoa. We wander through Target pillow trials, Disney Springs escapism, Publix yoga-pant anthropology, open carry at the bookstore, HOA roller disco villains, and one surprisingly practical tip for calming anxiety and getting your bod...
In this episode, we save someone from an unnecessary tow truck, confront a smart speaker that suddenly thinks it’s our equal and honor a true hero of the public restroom. We also test-drive a switch from coffee to matcha (spoiler: fewer jitters, more smugness), debate whether dogs are tiny furry theologians while cats are morally neutral agents of chaos, and accidentally summon K-pop Demon Hunters.
Plus, a shockingly h...
We wander into the strange promises of tech: an “anti-gaslighting” app. Winter makes a cameo, Florida-style. Bowling humility. Plus, a cryptic song riddle gets solved, our Scottish friend is deciphered, and movies are backward.
Pull up a chair. Subscribe, share this with a friend who’s juggling kids and chaos, and listen up.

In this installment of Super Familiar with the Wilsons, Josh discovers something surprising at a KPop Demon Hunter sing-along, we give a PSA about cars that die but really don't, a neighborhood HOA saga update, and a pink-slippers-on-a-scooter sighting that redefines road safety.

Halloween candy mountain, party “forced fun,” and the eternal mystery of Why Every Kid Owns a 128 oz Water Bottle. In this comedy chat from Super Familiar with the Wilsons, Amanda and Josh rant about trick-or-treat overload, hosting a house full of costumed grown-ups, and building community without losing your mind (or your Kit Kats). We swap idiom-costume ideas for school (“piece of cake,” anyone?), give a tiny HOA u...
Marriage 2.0 with side quests and kids. Amanda and Josh tackle the mysterious “six seven” meme, a KPop Demon Hunters obsession, and why Topgolf isn’t putt-putt (or dueling pianos actually dueling). DoorDash diplomacy, an alarm titled “Play with me, Daddy,” HRT patch wins, and a backyard Baby Saja rap battle. Listener mail checks rapture rumors; The Birdcage is your homework. Also: the family dog’s dental drama. Funny,...
Sleep-deprived, off the rails, and somehow leading straight into parental panic, moral victories, and one bed date.
It’s a ride through a weekend that began with peace, steak, and football glory, and ended with a 2 A.M. call that tested their parenting nerves and their Wi-Fi connection. There’s a police car involved, a Disney detour, cosmic messages about fantasy football, and a suspiciously prophetic name. Meanwhile, ...
We wrestle with how to handle swearing around kids and admit our own hypocrisy plus: the matcha shortage, Publix marathons and the Uncrustables saga from vegetarian to steak plus K‑pop Demon Hunters.

Marriage 2.0, an eight-year-old’s gelato grift, HOA espionage at the pool, PE squats vs. aging knees, Talk Like a Pirate Day, a lovingly irreverent “Seven Things To Do Before The Rapture,” rapture panic history, Amanda’s Flashbackst imeline quiz (Josh gets humbled), and a cozy equinox call to touch grass, maybe before the hurricane. Ends with a gloriously absurd “rapture roll call” in the credits.

Amanda declares it the Season of All The Germs and the Microsoft Planner of Doom (167 “due today” tasks!), while the Wilsons unpack kid boredom, screen-time rage-quits, and transitions that need a landing strip. Then it’s Gainesville game-day anthropological fieldwork: “Team Mario Brothers,” vanished shorts, w...

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
