We Need To Talk with Harry and Shade

We Need To Talk with Harry and Shade

Welcome to The Harry & Shade Show, where a real married couple sits down, keeps it 100, and talks about everything your relationship group chat is too scared to bring up. Harry and Shade don't have it all figured out. They have four kids, strong opinions, and a whole lot of real-life experience, including the arguments, the laughs, the hard seasons, and the moments that make it all worth it. From communication and finances to keeping the spark alive when you're raising ages from 7-year-old to a 20-year-old under the same roof, nothing is off-limits, and nothing is sugarcoated. This isn't a highlight reel. It's the real story of two people choosing each other, parenting together, and figuring it out as they go with humor, honesty, and zero filter. New episodes drop weekly. Come for the relationship talk. Stay for the chaos.

Money ends more marriages than cheating.
Not because couples don't love each other —
but because they never had the real 
conversation about it.

In Episode 5, Harry and Shade go all the way
in on finances. The money mindsets they each
brought into this marriage. The mistakes. The
disagreements. The power dynamics. And the
financial lessons that only 20 years of real
life tog...

This is the episode most podcasts won't make.

Harry and Shade get completely vulnerable about 
something millions of couples go through and almost 
nobody talks about out loud — intimacy challenges, 
body changes, and the health issues that silently 
affect your relationship before you even know 
what's happening.

This one is personal. This one is real.&nbs...

We said we weren't done with Trust — and we meant it.

Episode 2 picks up right where we left off. Harry and 
Shade finish answering the Top 10 most common trust 
questions couples actually ask and as always, we 
don't always agree. That's kind of the whole point.
