Submit ReviewFor the past four and a half years, there's one question that Danielle and Adam get pretty regularly: "why do you have to curse so much?" It's a fair question, and one that actually doesn't bother them, as long as it's asked in a f*cking respectful way. So, why do they curse so much? In what ways do they feel that the art of cursing is misunderstood? What are their rules as parents concerning their kids using profanity? What are their favorite lines from movies that involve cursing? Which of them curses more? If you love cursing, sit down, relax, and get ready for some fantastic facts about "F bombs."

Warning: This episode discusses body image, disordered eating, and other complex relationships with food and exercise. Please take care while listening.
This is Danielle's first solo episode in over three years. However, the response she's gotten to some more recent episodes in which she gets very vulnerable about body image and the all-consuming aspects of trying to attain a certain physique, made it clear to her that she needed to dig deeper into the topic by herself before tackling the the subject with Adam. Danielle discusses everything from what she was told about her weight growing up, to the numerous diet plans she's tried (and failed), to her biggest fears regarding body acceptance. This episode is raw, emotional, and will most likely be relatable to many who have endured the shame and scrutiny caused by diet culture. What does she want Adam (and so many partners) to understand? How does she want to live her life from this point forward? What struggles have exhausted her emotionally and physically? It's all in this episode. Listen, and then send it to someone else who might need a little more self-love and to feel less alone.

The term "Estate Planning" is quite misleading. So many of us believe that "getting our affairs in order" is something reserved only for the wealthy. Yet it is absolutely necessary to our loved ones' futures that we sort out financial and personal details ASAP, no matter the status of our finances and assets, especially if we have children under the age of 18. But how do we approach such a monumentally confusing and overwhelming task? Danielle and Adam sat down with Estate Planning expert (who just happens to also be their VERY awesome brother-in-law) to ask all the questions, no matter how simple or naive. Danielle is pretty confident that they don't even have an "estate," (what does that even mean?!) and it's been around 15 years since they last updated their will (oops). Luckily, Gideon patiently addresses all of their (and your) concerns, and discusses his very personal experience with this subject, which caused him to pivot in his career. It turns out, there are people who are very passionate about estate planning (thank goodness).
Some of the topics covered in the episode:
Whether you're listening in hopes of talking to your parents or elder family members about your concerns for their late-in-life planning, or hoping to gain more insight into what steps you should take next in your own planning, this is one of those episodes that takes a scary topic and makes it not only relatable, but solvable. Send it to your family, friends, and anyone else who needs to a reminder that we aren't taking these steps only for our own peace of mind, but for the futures of those we love the most.

What was supposed to be a light, fun episode of Danielle and Adam asking one another random questions about life turns into a deeper, more real discussion about frustrations and issues beneath the actual subject matter. How does Danielle feel about Adam's crypto obsession? Why does Adam feel like he doesn't need to take more of an interest in women's content? This is a fun episode that also tackles some unexpected marital issues that will most likely be relatable to tons of couples.

After recently completing the college admissions process with their oldest child, Adam and Danielle knew they wanted to do a series of episodes for parents who might be anticipating or already immersed in the process. They asked their friend and seasoned admissions consultant, Peter Tilles, to sit down and answer their (and your) questions concerning all things college related. They also knew, however, that they wanted this series to be different than other podcasts that center on higher education in the fact that they want to emphasize the idea of "finding the right fit school" for each unique child.

TW: All things "vice" related.
Adam and Danielle make it no secret that they have some questionable life choices. Most people won't talk about the taboo aspects of coping mechanisms due to the shame and stigma. But guess what? Life is hard, and we're not all equipped with the healthiest and most acceptable tactics. This is a safe space for anyone who has at times felt shamed for resorting to vices that aren't "healthy" or socially encouraged. In part one of this series, Danielle and Adam discuss how they've walked the tightrope of edgy behavior, and how their privilege has allowed them to do so. They discuss compassion in a world where people are expected to be able to solve problems in a more "productive" and responsible manner. Plus, they go more in depth discussing a vice in which they've both partaken since a young age and how they were first introduced to this substance. If you are going to listen to this episode, please check your judgment at the door. It's a truly honest conversation about elements of life which about which are greatly shameful to speak.

Is there any more uncomfortable subject to discuss in a real, educational way than porn? Probably not. Which is exactly why Danielle wanted so desperately to do this episode.Erika Lust is an award-winning, feminist, sex-positive director of adult cinema. Now, she’s made it her mission to educate parents about how we can have these incredibly hard discussions with our kids. Porn is ubiquitous these days. So why are so few people talking about it? Erika breaks down why we can’t wait any longer to dive into the topic and the ways we can do it so it’s not so damn uncomfortable.

Danielle and Adam reflect on their household rules growing up (or lack thereof) and how these (non) rules impacted them in becoming the people they are today. They discuss how their "rules" around religion have changed, which societal rules we need to get rid of, and what the rules of their household are now that they're supposedly in charge. What's the only movie Danielle's mom ever made them walk out of and why? What were the rules living in the dorm at Adam's boarding school? What would their kids say are non-negotiable rules in their family?

Very few couples are as honest and refreshing as Erinn and Oliver. In this episode, the two couples commiserate about everything from trust in marriage, to how hard consistency is in parenting, and why perfection is such a scam. Oliver gets real about what it was like coming clean to Erinn early in their marriage about his infidelity, how it almost broke him, and how they've been able to talk about it so openly now that they have such a strong, solid partnership. Erinn talks about what it was like to receive that shocking news, and how they were able to rebuild after this huge reveal. Their relationship is a testament to what can happen when two people decide to go "all in" and do whatever it takes to heal. Also, why it's so absurd that we say "til death do us part" in our vows, but neglect to discuss how committing to one person for our entire lives comes with inevitable hardships and mistakes.
