Episode 19 is the first episode in a collection of conversations regarding all things relationships, marriages, parenting, toxic masculinity and everything else leading up to Valentines Day with my friends Colin Moran and Scott Balawender.

In this show, we revisit a point from an earlier solo podcast-why we’re not coming clean with our friends about how awful their partner is, breaking the cycle of living in a dysfunctional household and modeling what a good relationship should look like for your children, painting a picture of a perfect marriage on social media when in reality you’re numb and living a lie, dating as a single parent and not wanting to be “that guy” bringing a new girl around every 6 weeks, strange addictions, why people enjoy watching others fail, and some of the WORST SHARK TANK PITCHES OF ALL TIME.

In episode #18, we're talking about what solidifies or confirms that two people are in a relationship...and what we thought that looked like in our teenage years, trying to be smooth and putting your arm over a girls shoulder in a movie theater when you're 14, the importance of "experience" gifts and creating memories for kids, the catastrophic reaction to being rejected by a boy or girl in high school, what moms REALLY want for mother's day, the crucial life skills that today's kids don't get to practice that were torturous in the 80s and 90s, working as a special education teacher in a substantially separate classroom, and the lack of privacy you had growing up with a corded phone.

In episode 17, we’re asking why we’re still doing countdowns for things in our lives and realizing we should just live in the moment, being 17 and being excited about all the things an 18 or 21 year old can do, why time seems to go by so much faster as you get older, the Northeast’s toxic relationship with winter, our generations exhaustion with parenting two generations at the same time, a downstairs neighbor from hell, and why are we still thinking children cannot hear adult conversations
