We have A LOT to unpack this week. Dani is officially hooked on Alix Earle's new reality show — and somehow Jordan is too — which leads us straight into the Braxton Berrios breakup, why Dani thinks Alix may have chosen her career over the relationship, and a little piece of information Jordan has apparently been sitting on: Braxton had a ring?! We also get into the Alix Earle vs. Alex Cooper drama and whether Alix Earle was actually taken advantage of by the Unwell Network or simply outgrew the deal she signed. Plus, Dani takes Jordan down the absolutely WILD rabbit hole of former Bachelor Clayton Echard's paternity scandal and the Love Trapped podcast. Then we get a little deeper: Has our culture made marriage harder by convincing people they need to have their entire lives figured out before finding a spouse? We talk about building a life with someone versus waiting until you've built it alone, influencer culture at live events, and whether creators have officially gone too far. It's pop culture, marriage, internet rabbit holes and plenty of unsolicited opinions. Let's get into it.

Do husbands secretly want to be the little spoon?In this episode of Beyond I Do, Adam and Ashlee get into a hilarious debate after Adam admits that sometimes he just wants his wife to hold him—and Ashlee is completely unconvinced. What starts as an argument about cuddling turns into a bigger conversation about affection, emotional support, and why husbands want to feel seen too.They also talk about the pressures men carry, how easily husbands can feel overlooked in marriage, and why sometimes something as simple as a hug, a touch, or hearing “it's going to be okay” can mean more than you realize.Sometimes your husband doesn't need you to fix anything.He might just need you to hold him.--Get the Acts Study Guide at: https://www.adammesa.org/--Join our study on the book of Acts on our Bible Club Podcast!https://www.youtube.com/@bibleclubpodcast--Have a question about relationships?

Marketing im Kopf - ein Podcast von Luis BinderIn dieser Folge wird über verschiedene Unternehmen gesprochen, da Markennamen genannt werden, handelt es sich um UNBEZAHLTE WERBUNG!In dieser Folge: In der heutigen Podcastfolge von Marketing im Kopf geht's darum wie man es eigentlich schafft, Kunden über den reinen Kauf hinaus an sich zu binden? Das geht mit offenen und geschlossenen Kundenclubs über Multipartnerprogramme wie Payback oder Miles & More bis hin zu Value Added Services und Open Innovation. Und außerdem schauen wir uns an, warum die Reifephase der Kundenbeziehung gar nicht so sicher ist, wie es im ersten Moment aussieht, und warum Wachstum in dieser Phase nicht mehr der Entscheidende Punkt ist. ____________________________________________Marketing-News der Woche:Schlechte KI-Kreation schadet Marken42 % bewerten eine Marke negativer, wenn deren KI-Werbung billig, unnatürlich oder irritierend wirkt. Gleichzeitig reagieren 40 % positiv auf professionell umgesetzte KI-Werbung. Menschen lehnen KI nicht grundsätzlich ab, entscheidend sind aber Qualität und Kontext. Obwohl 56 % KI-Inhalte nicht immer sicher erkennen, kann eine schlechte Umsetzung Vertrauen kosten. KI spart zwar Zeit, ersetzt aber keine Qualitätskontrolle.Penny macht Influencer-Marketing zum LadenkonzeptIn Frankfurt eröffnet dauerhaft eine „Leylaland“-Filiale rund um Reality-Star Leyla Heiter. Der Markt bleibt ein regulärer Penny mit rund 3.500 Artikeln und den gleichen Preisen wie andere Filialen. Goldene Palmen, Kronleuchter, Gemälde und eine lebensgroße Statue sollen gezielt Fotos, Social-Media-Content und Medienaufmerksamkeit auslösen. Penny misst den Erfolg nicht nur an Reichweite und Markenwirkung: Der Markt soll sich durch seinen eigenen Umsatz wirtschaftlich tragen. Aus einer Kooperation wird ein Markenerlebnis, das Social Media, PR und Point of Sale verbindet.Nano-Influencer gewinnen an BedeutungUS-Marken arbeiten verstärkt mit Menschen, die teils nur 500 Follower haben. Unternehmen wie Target, American Eagle und Little Spoon bauen Programme auf, in denen kleinere Creator für Produktvideos, Einkaufserlebnisse oder andere Markeninhalte belohnt werden. Algorithmen zeigen Nutzer zunehmend Inhalte von Accounts, denen sie gar nicht folgen. Ein kleiner Account kann deshalb große Reichweite erzielen, wenn der Content relevant ist. Für 2026 sollen bereits rund 45 % der US-Ausgaben für Influencer Marketing an Creator mit weniger als 20.000 Followern gehen. Auch im DACH-Raum können viele echte Markenfans damit wertvoller sein als wenige Stars.Vertikale Videos werden zum StandardTikTok, Reels und YouTube Shorts haben vertikale Videos etabliert. Ende 2025 erreichten YouTube Shorts laut dem Unternehmen bereits 200 Milliarden Aufrufe pro Tag. Auch Spotify, Disney+, Netflix, Prime Video und weitere Streamingangebote experimentieren inzwischen mit vertikalen Feeds oder kurzen Clips. Dahinter stehen vor allem 2 Ziele: mehr Nutzungszeit und mehr Werbefläche in endlos scrollbaren Feeds. ____________________________________________Vernetz dich gerne auf LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/luisbinder/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marketingimkopf/Du hast Fragen, Anregungen oder Ideen?

How do you build a $100M CPG brand when your first retail opportunity falls apart? For Little Spoon, the answer was to stop waiting for the shelf and start building a relationship with the customer. After its initial plans to launch fresh baby food with Whole Foods hit a roadblock, co-founder and chief product officer Angela Vranich helped steer the company toward a DTC-first strategy that transformed Little Spoon into the largest direct-to-consumer baby and kids food brand in the U.S. The company has since expanded into more than 100 products, entered retail through an exclusive partnership with Target, and built a business around understanding what modern parents want. In this episode, Vranich breaks down the decisions, challenges, and operating principles behind Little Spoon's rise — from product innovation and customer education to scaling a complex food business without compromising quality. Show notes: 0:20: Angela Vranich, Co-Founder, Little Spoon – Angela discusses how a setback with Whole Foods ultimately shaped Little Spoon's trajectory, prompting the company to pivot to a direct-to-consumer model. After selling more than one million meals in its first year, Little Spoon validated an opportunity to disrupt kids' nutrition and build a deeper relationship with families. She talks about the company's commitment to premium ingredients, rigorous testing, and transparency, as well as the operational complexity of managing more than 25 co-manufacturers, six fulfillment centers, and products across ambient, refrigerated, and frozen categories. Angela also shares how Little Spoon built a brand centered on education and content, recognizing that parents were looking not just for food, but guidance and support as they navigated feeding their children. She also highlights the company's culture, where transparency and collaboration help ensure that ideas can come from anywhere within the organization. Finally, Angela explains why Little Spoon entered retail through a major Target launch in 2025 and how the company is using insights from its DTC platform to inform its retail strategy and thoughtful expansion into additional chains.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday!!! TBH we started with a 10 minute spiral about CYCLOSPORIASIS (are you guys spiraling too???). We are officially swearing off produce for the time being (but if you don't want to, Dr. Brown taught us to stick to things with peels and still wash them!!). ok ANYWAYS - guess we are saving on berries for the time being… We get into Tate's 3AM wake up: how we handled it, how YOU GUYS said you would handle it, and why we're chill with letting this happen (like once a year). But here's what we know now: we always need to have a game plan because we don't need any 3AM fights. Plus, Tate has a new food obsession, Rocky is officially SOCIAL SMILING

In today's episode, I sit down with psychologist and professor Alison Fragale to explore the concept of status—what it really means, why the need to be respected is such a fundamental human drive, and how it shapes the way our kids navigate friendships, school, and their broader social world. We talk about how status often shows up differently for girls, the balance between being likable and being confident, and how subtle habits like self-deprecation can influence how our kids see themselves. We discuss a simple, powerful framework for understanding behavior through the lens of warmth and competence, along with practical ways to help kids build confidence, interpret social feedback, and develop relationships rooted in real respect rather than external validation.

In today's episode I sit down with Dr. Elisha Goldstein to explore how small, practical shifts can help us break out of the constant overwhelm so many parents are living in. We talk about why knowing what to do isn't the same as actually doing it, how chronic low-grade stress impacts the way we show up with our kids, and why self-regulation is one of the most important skills we can model. We discuss simple, in-the-moment tools to interrupt reactive patterns, calm the nervous system, and move from reacting to responding, as well as how these “tiny shifts” can improve not just our parenting, but our overall health and well-being.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, the countdown continues… we are officially less than a month away from baby #2 and it's pretty much all we can think (and talk) about right now… (so SORRY in advance
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast we're celebrating Harrison's BIRTHDAY (with a gift reveal on camera!!), debating a tiny relationship lie that has the internet divided (it involves key lime pie lol), and talking about a parenting question we genuinely didn't know the answer to: what bathroom should girl dads take their daughters to in public?! We get into the new screen time guidelines for kids from the American Academy of Pediatrics and why the conversation around screens is shifting from “how much” to “how and why” (+ the new DESSERT analogy we love). Plus: Harrison's getting in shape before baby boy arrives (+ his new focus on sleep), we officially started our sourdough era, and we've got THE SUIT that Harrison plans to wear when he brings baby boy home from the hospital. Later in the episode we talk about a neighborhood school Q&A that made us really excited about the future, whether travel actually helps toddlers hit developmental milestones (spoiler alert: IT DOES!!!), and something we saw that we think is really cool: Costco helping make IVF treatment more affordable for families. Finally, we answer a listener question for Dr. Ari about introducing allergens when a parent has allergies. LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!!!

Known from The Ramsey Show and Smart Money Happy Hour, George shares how he and Whitney followed the Dave Ramsey Baby Steps to pay off all their debt, eliminate their $165,000 mortgage in just 26 months, and reach millionaire status by age 32.

After your favorite viral pasta sauce entered its “parenting era” by teaming up with Little Spoon on limited edition clean-label, ready-to-eat meals…it got thinking how SAUZ might've unlocked the ultimate growth strategy, which centers around modern parents wanting the CPG brands they already love to growth their families. Could it become a blueprint for the next generation of “cool kids' food"? Imagine a milder Fly By Jing szechuan-inspired flavor of Serenity Kids pouches. Or what about including a Graza “drizzle kit” within those Tiny Organics “finger food meals” to make them extra fun. So, which “adult” CPG brand do you want to see collab on a kids' version next?
Matt's parents are BACK and we made a questionable decision: play 'Never Have I Ever' together.

Mazel Morons! Today, Josh debuts his rugged new beard era (is he auditioning for a 1923 cameo?) while Ben absolutely refuses to grow one. From there, we dive into an unfiltered, surprisingly thoughtful debate about GLP-1s, diet culture, and why modern medicine might actually be… good? We also get into why crash diets don't work (but lifestyle resets might,) the $500 award submission drama surrounding Joe Rogan, and the behind-the-scenes reality of TV wardrobe politics. Plus: dips on dips, cowboy caviar chaos, and a What Are You Nuts that will make you rethink your fridge rules forever.Leave us a voicemail here!Follow us on Instagram and TikTok!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're answering YOUR questions - but fair warning: we had a lot to say (40 mins worth) before we got there. In our defense: shampoo recs, steak temperatures, and daddy/daughter dances felt important at the time (LOL). OK SO FIRST… We talk about 5AM toddler mornings (is this a phase?!), using ChatGPT to survive your inbox, and the very unexpected realization that if you have a nut allergy… you might want to check your shampoo ingredients. We also debate 2-in-1 shampoo (dealbreaker or fine?), and Harrison pitches his “best worst idea of the week”: Tinder… but for streaming services. From there, we get into pregnancy things no one warns you about - including dental issues during pregnancy (are dentists still running the biggest scam in America?! IYKYK) - and why dads showing up to “mommy & me” classes might actually be one of our favorite cultural shifts. We talk daddy/daughter dances, the #1 toddler birthday party idea that parents will actually enjoy, and why themed dinner parties deserve a comeback. Then we spiral into food takes (you can't order burgers medium-rare in Canada?!), whether sending food back is ever worth it, and finally dive into your Q&A questions: should a new baby bring a “gift” for their sibling, what really matters when choosing an OBGYN, what to prepare for before labor, and what actually belongs in a hospital bag - including the one item I would never, ever skip. We also talk about what we're most excited for with a baby boy, whether there's a “best” season to be pregnant, and if we're planning to open investment accounts for the kids. We wrap with a comment section debate that got people fired up (apparently ppl are really pro-spanking???) and a Bicker of the Week about wearing your partner's clothes before they do (which OF COURSE is fine IF they are pregnant lol). LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!!!!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we might have cracked the code on toddler mornings… and it's not waking up earlier. We're talking 5am wakeups, third-trimester exhaustion, and the mindset shift that completely changed how we handle that first hour of the day. Instead of surviving it, we're cooking through it. Eggs, repetition, more eggs, toddler “responsibility,” and why letting Tate crack the eggs might actually be the best parenting hack we've stumbled into. From there, we rant about the glucose test (there HAS to be a better way), officially put the induction on the calendar, and share baby names we LOVE but WON'T be using (and why naming a second kid feels wildly harder?? Idk we just need to see the baby). We spiral (naturally) into the Valentine's Day debate: when someone says “no gifts”… do they actually mean it? Then get into our low-spend month competition with the neighbors (now accepting votes for who you think might win… spoiler alert: it doesn't seem like it's gonna be me), what I'm NOT buying this month but really want to, and then talk about a competition that ACTUALLY matters: the Winter Olympics. Harrison has a rant about why it's somehow harder than ever to actually watch the Olympics. We also unpack the viral Olympian cheating apology and whether that was romantic… or just ????? Then we hit the comment section: is going off-registry rude? are toddlers sitting on restaurant tables actually a crime? and are “self-driving” cars even self-driving? We wrap with something that genuinely reframed our week: toddlers are hardwired to hit, run, climb, and tantrum. It's NOT personal. It's developmental. And how you react might matter more than what they do. LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening
This week, Deena's getting ready to escape the winter and go to Aruba, and Snooki's prepping for a surgery. Very different plans for this Super Bowl weekend… Also the Meatballs have decided that if Snooki ever dies, she'll reincarnate as a crow and harass Deena by landing in her breakfast.This episode is sponsored by:QuinceLittle Spoon - Simplify your kids' mealtimes.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're very much in planning mode - talking babymoon ideas, future parenting rules (we NEED your thoughts on the bed-making debate), and yet another round of nesting. We start with coffee shop talk (yes, the same one we've been talking about for the last two weeks), why good habits take forever to build while bad ones take about two days, and the current parent uniform: sweatsuits with mystery stains. From there, it's full nesting energy (again) - labeling everything (western shorts, IYKYK), debating whether kids are born Type A or if we accidentally make them that way, and getting into the surprisingly divisive question of whether kids should make their own beds (possibly our first real parenting style disagreement live on the pod??). Then we get into technology and boundaries: the no phones in bedrooms rule, what age kids are actually getting phones now, and how we somehow ended up with a landline (yes, really). We celebrate Maria's one-year anniversary with us, spiral into celebrity power couples, Grammys discourse, Valentine's Day card exchanges at school, and our ongoing “no gifts” debate. Mid-episode, we start planning our babymoon (US only, no car required - please send help), talk through joint bachelor/bachelorette parties (fun or a hard no?), share our #1 travel hack that immediately lowers stress (with or without kids), and revisit the ongoing dog conversation - why everyone says we should NOT get one yet, and whether we're secretly a no-pets house… until the day we're not (I still cannot believe Harrison asked if I'd consider a pet spider). We wrap with mall nostalgia (or lack thereof), a classic Bicker of the Week (pool vs. no pool - IN TEXAS), and a new behavioral tactic we'll keep in mind for those future meltdowns: connection before direction. LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!!! Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:02:06 Coffee shops are making coffee “community” again (and we're obsessed) 00:05:11 Why good habits take forever… and bad habits take 2 days 00:06:50 New parent uniform: mystery stains 00:14:29 Nesting parents - are you labeling EVERYTHING too?! 00:16:10 Are kids born Type A vs Type B… or do we create them? 00:18:40 Are we making our kids make their beds? 00:21:25 The “no phones in bedrooms” rule… 00:23:37 What age are parents giving kids phones now? 00:24:42 We got a LANDLINE… should we do call-ins?! 00:25:37 Maria's one-year anniversary 00:30:08 Celebrity power couples 00:31:57 Alex Warren at the Grammys 00:35:31 Do schools still do Valentine's Day card exchanges?! 00:37:53 Valentine's Day gift ideas for your partner (plus our “no gifts” debate) 00:43:38 We have an outdoor baby 00:45:20 Baby moon help: where should we go?!

Stassi's back with bestie Taylor Strecker — and she's sick-sick. Fever, chills, body aches, two IVs, and every test (COVID, flu, all of it) came back negative. It's officially a mystery illness. While she recovers, the girls swap germ-a-phobe confessions, parenting pet peeves, and the fine line between being cautious and being that friend who still shows up when their kid is sick. Then it's Halloween party debrief time: Stassi's Bubonic Plague costume crisis, Taylor's full-commitment Blake Lively moment, and why niche costumes are the new status symbol — plus falling for fake AI videos and debating whether the Louvre heist was actually pulled off by a bored billionaire.Thanks for supporting our sponsors:Revolve: Shop at REVOLVE.com/STASSI and use code STASSI for 15% off your first order.#REVOLVEpartnerLittle Spoon: Simplify your kids mealtimes.

In 1974, Wichita, Kansas was shaken by a series of brutal attacks inside family homes. Men, women, and children were bound, tortured, and killed by a predator who called himself BTK. For 17 years, he terrorized the community, claiming at least 10 victims and taunting police with disturbing letters that detailed his crimes. Then in 1991, the killings abruptly stopped, leaving law enforcement and the public to wonder if the killer had vanished forever. For more than a decade, there was silence. Then in 2004, BTK resurfaced with new messages, reigniting fear in Wichita. But that renewed need for attention would ultimately be his downfall, and by the following year, detectives had identified the killer as Dennis Rader, a father of two, a Scout leader, and a trusted member of his church council. Rader was the last person anyone suspected of being a sexual sadist serial killer, but once investigators began putting all the puzzle pieces together, it became clear that Rader's family-man persona was just a mask covering the monster beneath.

When a friend found 58-year-old Janie Ballard stabbed over 70 times in her Little Rock, Arkansas home on September 13, 2003, investigators immediately suspected her own daughter, Leslie, and Leslie's much older husband, Mike McCool. But how did a shy, successful young woman from a prominent family become capable of such unthinkable violence? Leslie had grown up with every advantage—private school, college degrees, a job at the family printing business, and a condo bought by her parents. But after meeting Mike, a twice-divorced bodybuilder 22 years her senior with a violent criminal past, Leslie transformed completely. The more her parents disapproved, the deeper she fell under his control. When Janie cut Leslie out of her will, the relationship turned deadly. This case explores how manipulation, greed, and toxic family dynamics led to one of Arkansas's most shocking matricides. A mother who feared her own daughter—and was right to be afraid.

What does it really mean to parent with grace? Does choosing grace-based or gentle parenting mean we throw out discipline or become permissive? In today's episode, Cody Kimmel and I, explore the deep spiritual truths behind parenting the way God parents us, full of grace, full of truth, and full of delight. Parenting is not about perfection. It's about partnering with God in the work He's doing in our kids' lives. When we align ourselves with His heart—gracious, truthful, joyful—we parent from a place of rest, not reaction. Here is some of what we cover: How to respond to a talking-back teen with both love and limits How our own sanctification plays a role in how we approach our kids and discipline The role of trust and play in your relationship with your kids Grace doesn't mean permissiveness, it means parenting the way God parents us How modern parenting gets it wrong by saying parenting is death to joy and freedom but there is incredible beauty and delight in motherhood Connect with Cody Kimmel: Website: Home - Gracebased Facebook: Gracebased Instagram: Gracebased (@gracebasedfamilies) Links Mentioned: Grace-Based Parenting: By Tim Kimmel Blueprint Pathway - Gracebased Gracebased Home Journal - Gracebased Podcasts lightcatchers - Gracebased Related Episodes: Grace Based Discipline for Kids with Unique Needs :: Karis Murray [Ep 237] Grace-Based Discipline :: Karis Kimmel Murray [Ep 150] “What Does My Child Need?” :: Amy and Jeffrey Olrick [Ep 480] Featured Sponsors: Little Spoon: Simplify your kids' mealtimes.
