This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday and happy HALLOWEEN WEEK!! We open with Tuesday vs. Chewsday part 982734 (Harrison is not compromising, but we’re still trying).
Harrison did the unthinkable last night: weeknight plans past 7pm. Chappelle was in town on a Tuesday (home at 1am, he’s recovering), which brings up two questions: 1) when’s the last time YOU made weeknight plans past 7?? And 2) after 15,000 phones got locked up at the show.. should phones be banned at concerts and comedy shows?
Then the hack every parent needs: the BEST location for an easy kids’ birthday party is.. a public golf course?? Hear us out: communal area, picnic tables, food from the shack, kids running wild, zero rules. We will be taking no further questions, just look up your local public course hahaha
Two rabbit holes we fell down after talking about golf: chess is officially recognized as a SPORT?! (we learn how sports are actually classified, and golfers & bowlers are in the same category hahaha) and the paper straw PLOT TWIST.. a new study has plastic straws winning, and we have never felt more vindicated.
Plus it’s a festive week over here: costumes are required at extracurriculars (treats TBD, comment if you bring them!!), we’re making breakfast tacos for our trash guys (the Harlem Globetrotters of trash, iykyk), and we’re making the case that going to Spirit Halloween is a LOST ART. Plus Alex is hosting a mahjong night tonight for her best friend’s new app, which turns into the real talk: be a cheerleader for your friends, because it’s never too late to pivot.
Then on the table: Ziploc x Cheerios (resealable cereal bags, FINALLY), why more brands need to bring back mascots (Tony the Tiger supremacy), and the Halloween-week debate: couples costumes, cringe or cute?!
Finally, the Bicker of the Week comes from YOUR DMs: he told the waiter it was their anniversary to get free dessert on an early date.. she says cheap, he says hilarious. Our ruling depends entirely on his motive hahaha. Weigh in!!
Happy Halloween week :-) LOVE YOU GUYS!
