Summary

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast (WEDNESDAY EDITION!!) we’re kicking things off with our Black Friday must-haves — the things we actually use, actually love, and actually recommend for moms, dads, and babies. From pregnancy wardrobe staples to Harrison’s new slipper obsession to the toddler toys that aren’t a waste of money (and no, we did not say stocks LOL), we’re breaking down exactly what’s worth grabbing this week. (All linked HERE: https://shopmy.us/justalexbennett/gift-guides) We’re also fully in Thanksgiving mode — reflecting on Friendsgiving, getting ready for our trip to OKC, and sharing our NYC holiday plans (yes, the Rockettes are officially happening). We also share out experience adopting from an Angel Tree, why it’s actually the sweetest trend on TikTok, and why it ended up being the highlight of the entire week!!! We get into Harrison’s annual dentist saga that somehow becomes a full-blown scam investigation (every. single. time.). Plus: negotiating home repairs like a true dad (is everything negotiable?! apparently yes). We also squeeze in a Flock taste test, the great “do men even notice nails?” debate (we literally called a single man), a chat on slow vs. fast dopamine for kids (the science is wild), and whether we’d ever let AI trade our money (Harrison says… maybe?!). As always… LOVE YOU GUYS!!! (Happy Thanksgiving!!!)
