  • EP 90: How Much Is Too Much? Ft. Liz
    Oct 26 2025

    In this episode of The Parrot Side, we explore the theme of parenting boundaries with our special guest, Liz. The discussion begins with an examination of the ideal level of closeness between parents and their children, and whether traditional African parenting styles tend to discourage deep interpersonal relationships within the family.


    We further delve into the delicate balance between sharing and oversharing personal information with one’s parents—questioning whether our restraint stems from a desire to protect them or from fear of their judgment.


    Finally, we address how we might approach controversial issues as future parents, such as prempting conversations around sex and raising an LGBT child. The conversation offers thoughtful reflections on empathy, openness, and evolving parental roles in modern society.

    Sep 20 2025

    In this episode of The Parrot Side, our hosts dive deep into the complexities of dating in America versus Europe, exploring the nuances of relationships, expectations, and societal pressures. They tackle the materialistic tendencies in American dating culture, contrasting it with the seemingly more stable relationship dynamics observed in Europe. The conversation takes a turn as they discuss personal experiences with dating, financial expectations, and the often awkward inquiries about salary in the early stages of a relationship. With humor and candidness, they navigate through the perceptions of what it means to be a 'foodie' and the cringe-worthy aspects of dating profiles. Join us for a lively debate that questions societal norms and personal values in the dating world.
