About this listen

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.

  • Episode 1: Meet Harry & Shade — 20 Years, 4 Kids & a Real Talk About Trust
    May 8 2026

    Welcome to We Need To Talk with Harry and Shade the podcast where a real married couple sits down, keeps it 100, and has the conversations most people avoid.

    We're Harry and Shade Farquharson. Twenty years married, four kids ranging from 7 to 20, and zero interest in pretending we have it all figured out. This podcast is our real story the love, the hard seasons, the laughs, and the lessons that only come from actually putting in the work together.

    In this first episode we introduce ourselves and our family the real version, not the highlight reel. You'll meet the kids, hear how we got here, and find out exactly why we decided to start doing this out loud on a microphone.

    Then we get into it. Our featured topic for Episode 1 is TRUST one of the most important and most avoided conversations in any relationship. We talk about what trust really means to each of us, what happens when it breaks, what it actually takes to rebuild it, and the small everyday things that either build trust or quietly destroy it.

    We also pull out The Receipts breaking down current celebrity relationship situations and connecting them directly to what real couples go through every day.

    This episode covers:
    • Who Harry & Shade are — and what 20 years really looks like
    • Introducing our four kids and the chaos of a full house
    • Trust — our personal definition and what it's meant in our marriage
    • What breaks trust and what it takes to actually rebuild it
    • The Hot Seat segment — rapid fire questions, no skipping allowed
    • Real relationship habits — the ones building you up and the ones tearing you down

    If you've ever questioned your partner, been questioned yourself, or just want to hear two real people talk about real life — this one is for you.
