Unholy Matrimony
I got a phone call. And it was Sabrina. And she was just screaming and asking me to go over to her house. And I know that I kept saying, are you sure it was Robert? Because Robert was so strong, we couldn't believe it. We just couldn't believe it.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
I mean, it was overwhelming. Sabrina stayed in her room most of the time. She just had a hard time. It was unbelievable.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
Sabrina is my baby sister. She was born when I was 15 years old, and we've just had a bond ever since she was born. We grew up in Barstow, and I got married to Randy. So I moved out at 18, and Randy and I had this little home. And so Sabrina would come, and she would stay with us. She was always trying to entertain. She has such a talent.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
just to be an amazing, funny person, even when she was little. And every time we'd take a picture, we'd do, let's do a Brina picture, and we would all do our hands. So it was just something that she took on when she was little, and it stuck with her all this time.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
My dad had decided that he was going to retire, and his dream was to retire in Prescott, Arizona. So Sabrina was, I want to say, 13, and she made a lot of wonderful friends there. And that's where she met Robert, was in Prescott.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
Here he was with the big tattoo, Lamone, you know, tatted on the back of his head, but he was a big teddy bear.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
Robert and Sabrina had a total connection, and they started to go to church. And then when they were going to get married, they were baptized together. Sabrina and Robert got married in 2000. The wedding was in Arizona, and it was just a beautiful wedding. I was the maid of honor, and Sabrina was just a beautiful bride.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
When they moved to Silver Lakes, they went to church for a few years. But Sabrina's faith never wavered. She always, always had her Bible
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
They would harass her. The kids couldn't go to school. She had to homeschool them. So my cousins, they said, you know what? Come and live down here with us, and we'll take care of you.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
There was a knock at the door and it was the district attorney and the detectives. And, um, Sabrina didn't have any shoes on and they asked her to come outside And she went outside, and I started freaking out.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
She's an amazing mother. Her heart and soul is everything in those kids. She had nothing but love, love, love.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
No. I was so ready and so on fire to tell the truth that she didn't have anything to do with her husband's murder.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
Sabrina, I think, was just so tired and devastated, and I don't know that she came across the way she should have to the jury.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
Kelly Bernatine is the one that started the Wolf Pack. You know, Sabrina would tell me when she first met Kelly, Kelly was just the greatest thing ever.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
When that verdict came, it was heart wrenching. And we had so many people come up to us and just say how wrong, how wrong it was. That was not the right verdict.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
Jonathan killed Robert on his own. An absolutely manipulative monster took... are Robert's life. And Sabrina is paying the price for it.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
Sabrina was drinking so much all the time that She was pretty numb, I think, to a lot of things, but she didn't share with me what was going on.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
I would talk to her about it, and she'd be like, oh, Julie, I'm fine. It was the same thing with me. If we didn't admit it, it wasn't real.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
Robert would have to go to wherever the problem was on the train. So if the train broke down, then he would go out and he would fix it.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
Robert came across a bear one time. It was a very dangerous job. For one person to work that job is just unreal to me.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
I saw a difference in Robert and Sabrina's marriage. Not so much their marriage, but their way of living and their lifestyle.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
They went on adult vacations. They went out boating. They partied a lot at the North Lake.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
The only thing she complained about is that she wanted to go back to church and she wanted Robert to go back to church. Robert, he felt like they would be hypocrites if they went back to church. Robert didn't want to change back. He wanted to continue with the fun and all that they were doing. Despite the open marriage, Robert and Sabrina still loved each other.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
I talked to Sabrina a few times later on that evening, and then she's like, I keep trying to get a hold of Rob. I can't get a hold of him. Her daughter was waiting up for him because it was going to be her first day of school, and she wanted to give her daddy a kiss goodnight. And I said, oh, Brianna, he'll call you. Maybe he's out on a train or something.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
Their daughter wanted to talk to him on the phone, desperately. And they just kept calling and calling and calling. And there was no answer.

I just got it yesterday. It was very sim. I came back from an international trip and it was waiting for me at my door.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
Northeast Ohio. I'm going to be a little bit vague. Sure, sure. Oh, good, good.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
I did not. I grew up in the Baltimore area. So I'm a transplant, but I've been here the last three years.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
Let's hear it. It took place almost two years ago in the summer of 2023. My husband and I have two little girls. They are now six and seven. So they were four and five then. We decided to take them to Cedar Point for the first time. He had never been to Cedar Point. I had been once. I remember going on lots of fun roller coasters, and we got there, did the check-in.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
My five-year-old is very tall for her age, so she met the height criteria for some of the bigger roller coasters.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
It's about four feet, so she just met the height requirement. So we were like, okay, yes, let's go on a roller coaster. She'd never been on one before. She said, yeah, I'll go. And I said, well, why don't you go on Millennium Force? I remember going on that one. I think I was there in 2011. It's really fun. You're going to love it. So she's like, okay.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
So Millennium Force is the 10th tallest roller coaster in the world.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
Yeah. Looks like you're basically in the clouds when you're up there.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
I do know that I rode it when I was there in 2011. I don't think it has any upside downs, but it has the big drop. It goes straight up and then drops.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
Anyway, go on. So she was waiting in line. I think she got out of line once or twice. She kind of got freaked out, got scared. And we convinced her. I was like, no, no, you'll be fine. Just go on. It'll be great. So she went on with her dad. I stayed behind with my four-year-old because obviously the four-year-old wasn't going to go on. So we just kept watching for them.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
I kept looking at all the rides, seeing if I could spot what she was wearing. Never saw her. It's kind of taken a long time. What's going on? Finally, we see them coming around the bend and she just looks ghastly white.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
And I asked her, did you like it? Was it fun? She was like, it was scary. That's kind of all she said. I just looked kind of dazed. And her dad just said she passed out four or five times on the ride.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
no four or five times oh my god in this like minute right yeah so he said i kept looking over and she was just slumped over like eyes closed oh this is scary wow i was kind of freaked out because i was like does she need medical attention but she was fine she perked up gave her some juice cheese on a stick Went to look at the photos. You know, they take the photos that you get to look at after.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
You can see him. He's there. And then there's nothing next to him. Oh, my God. You can't see her little body at all. She's just kind of slumped. Oh, no. This is horrifying. Maybe they need not only a height limit, but maybe a weight minimum. So I think what happened was the G-forces just kind of overtook her body. Oh, my God.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
I think it was every time she went on the up, her blood pressure probably dropped and all the blood drained from her head.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
Doesn't seem to. I asked her yesterday in preparation. I said, what do you remember about it? She said, I just remember that I passed out a couple of times, but I remember being scared. So I think it's a combination of the adrenaline, the G-forces. And I said, would you go on it again? She said, yeah, I want to go. Let's go. Wow.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
It might be a few years before we go back on that.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
Kudos to him for maintaining his cool and remaining calm throughout the ride because I would have been freaked out. So that trip was our last to Cedar Point so far, but we will go back.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
Yeah, we need to get her passing out on the ride. Yeah, yeah, right of passage. Later that day, we kept going through the park. And then at some point, it just started pouring down rain. And then the power went out. We went into the store. We had promised the girls we would buy them stuffies on the way out. And so none of the cash registers were working. We didn't have any cash.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
So they might have walked away with a stuffy. Uh-oh. As for our shoplifting prompt. Yes, they did. We didn't know about it.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
Yeah, power was out in the whole park.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
That was it for the day. Yeah, that's smart.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
I think we're going to try that. So we have not gone back to Cedar Point, but we did go to Disney World. She did, I think it's like the Barnstormer or something, one of those smaller roller coasters. And that was fine.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
Yeah, thanks for telling us this story. You've got to go back, Dex, and try the Millennium Force. It is really fun.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard

I have trouble. I did a scopolamine patch. Have you ever used those? No.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
Kind of. It's just a patch that you put behind your ear, but it's anti-nausea, anti-motion sickness effect.
Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Armchair Anonymous: Cedar Point
I did it before Disney, and I was able to go on the Avatar ride without a problem. Without it, I know I wouldn't have made it. Okay, wow.

Crime Junkie
WANTED: Justice for Rhys Pocan & MMIW Part 2
To find out that she did not abandon me and that she wanted me is a big impact in my life because I have a child now. And not having to tell my child that, you know, her grandmother didn't care about me because her grandmother did care about me.
Crime Junkie
WANTED: Justice for Rhys Pocan & MMIW Part 2
I just want justice. I think after we find who did this to her, I'll be able to feel relieved because my mom didn't deserve this. She didn't? Why did you do it?
Deadly Mirage
Busted
There was one time, and I went to the little market, and one of the friends said, oh yeah, that golfer that was out in the front yard at their house, it's gone, and I should have taken that. People were like vultures and wanted things of Robert's and theirs, and it was just, it was nuts. It was just crazy.
Deadly Mirage
Busted
In fact, when we put the house up for sale, we didn't even put a sign outside because she was scared of the way that everyone was being so cruel to her and turned on her.
Deadly Mirage

She didn't know anything about it, and I believe in her innocence. They said there just simply wasn't enough evidence.
Deadly Mirage

I was at work and I got the call on my cell phone. They said that they had arrested Sabrina and Jonathan Hearn. I needed to pick up the kids from school. We weren't able to talk to Sabrina. I just couldn't, couldn't believe it.

Well, you're online in a bunch of places as having a daughter named Emily, but there aren't any pictures of her linked to you, so the name is all that matters. Plus, it's just better to keep your cover story as simple as possible.

Perfect. We barely escaped it out last time and turned a little bit blue, but not in our rural areas again, just like most people. My question is about the Surgeon General pick and Pam Bondi. Do you think that their previous stances are valid with Bondi being the red flag law and the Surgeon General with COVID and all of the lockdowns?

42: Earlswood’s mass cycle ride and Reigate’s Pub In the Park plans… and more
This week for the Planet Reigate podcast at the Children's Trust Bell Street Reigate, we have a marine navigation compass. We're asking just £50 for this item, but obviously I need to tell you a bit more about it. I've seen them retailing brand new with their boxes and a little dust cover bag for between £85 and £100. I think they started off at £150 when it was a brand new model.
The Planet Reigate Podcast
42: Earlswood’s mass cycle ride and Reigate’s Pub In the Park plans… and more
Anyway, it's a coarse compass and it can be used to take bearings. Obviously very important if you're out on open water. It's saying it's ideal for a small boat, a dinghy, kayak, canoe or even a small fishing boat. So very versatile. It's saying that it even works upside down when mounted on the ceiling.
The Planet Reigate Podcast
42: Earlswood’s mass cycle ride and Reigate’s Pub In the Park plans… and more
Hopefully that doesn't mean you're in really rocky seas and you get to benefit from it whilst trying to wrestle with the waves. It can be moved around the boat and it's got a clip with it which is a smooth edged bracket that can be fitted in a permanent position if you choose.
The Planet Reigate Podcast
42: Earlswood’s mass cycle ride and Reigate’s Pub In the Park plans… and more
with two little holes which will take self-tapping screws and it's designed with a smooth finish to the bracket and the item the compass so that it doesn't catch on sails or hurt fingers probably really important if you're out there you might be out at sea on your own for example it's got a soft rubber casing and that helps to provide efficient shock protection as well
The Planet Reigate Podcast
42: Earlswood’s mass cycle ride and Reigate’s Pub In the Park plans… and more
So there's a conical cord that reads direct in horizontal readings and gimballed magnetic set. In other words, if it rocks from side to side, it centres itself again. It's quite an interesting item, even if you don't have any interest in compasses or the sea. It's quite a talking point, I would suggest, on the sideboard at home. It is available on Saturday morning for just £50.

41: The Light’s first birthday, a look back at Reigate’s Summer Festival and Horley carnival… and more.
This week's item was first manufactured between 1962 and 1968 and it's from the Mattel Incorporated Company. The brand name on this is Fisher Price. So yes, it's a toy, but not just any toy. It's a music box teaching clock. So there's quite a lot going on here, but it's described as no flashy lights, no buttons to press, no fancy bits to get lost or broken.
The Planet Reigate Podcast
41: The Light’s first birthday, a look back at Reigate’s Summer Festival and Horley carnival… and more.
You simply wind it up, listen to the music, watch for the little pictures on the clock face and turn the clock hands to learn the different times. So this might be very reminiscent for people. That's joyous, isn't it? The imagery across the teaching clock has a school scene, a teacher greeting children at the school entrance door, a child walking up to the school.
The Planet Reigate Podcast
41: The Light’s first birthday, a look back at Reigate’s Summer Festival and Horley carnival… and more.
Around the side there's lots of little windows with different children in, one dressed as a cowboy, one with frost and snow seeping from the window. And on the back there's images actually which indicate the different hours of the day. So the different things that might be taking place at that point. So bath time apparently is 5pm. 6pm looks like parents sitting down and eating their tea.
The Planet Reigate Podcast
41: The Light’s first birthday, a look back at Reigate’s Summer Festival and Horley carnival… and more.
And 7 o'clock is bedtime. This item retails new for about £50. I've seen them new boxed. The pre-owned variety such as this are retailing for around about £20. We're asking £12.50 for this item so you can pick it up locally at the Children's Trust Bell Street.
The Planet Reigate Podcast
41: The Light’s first birthday, a look back at Reigate’s Summer Festival and Horley carnival… and more.
And as always, we have so many other pre-owned items and due to the generosity of our donors and a huge toy department, it must be the biggest one in the county for sure. Come along and see us, find your hidden treasure and support children with brain injury.

You know, Julie was supposed to have a mic today. But she doesn't. So next week, Julie has said that because we're very big into structure as the foundation of spontaneity.

But I think this goes into the theme of what we were talking about last week with the sunscreens, which is like historically we've been putting all this stuff up on our skin. And while it's had some positive effect, a lot of the added chemicals that they put in there are –
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
creating other issues for us and it's time for us to like do a serious double check on like what are the same way there's a lot of awareness around like what are the ingredients we're putting in our bodies that we're eating what are the ingredients that we're putting on our bodies from a skin perspective that's right and maybe zits are a natural part of life and they're fun well they are a natural part of life it's your body from it i think zits come from the inside mainly though
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Well, the response was actually from the gentleman who I have a lot of respect for and what he writes, Dr. Mark Hyman. And he talked a lot about how skin problems are tied to diet.

Yeah, well, my parents are in town, so they'll just babysit both of them. What a great little surprise, Mom and Dad. You're babysitting two kids tonight.

Well, I think they're going to come to the concert, so we'll get a babysitter.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Well, they're great. They're going to be so happy when they land and they find out that they're going to a concert.

Have we not texted a babysitter?

Okay, here we go.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I don't like this.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Because I think for our specific situation... The way it would be like we I think we have such a close relationship with our neighbors that I don't think there's any reason to be keeping tabs. I think there's so much mutual give and take. It would be like keeping tabs on us doing things in the house.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
But I don't think I'd want to do it with five other families. Like I think I like to meet one other family. I think what makes it so special is both our relationship with them and our relationship with our child.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And I don't feel like, like tonight for example, assuming we do babysitter, I don't feel like I'm doing them a favor. I want to take care of her the same way I want to take care of Tate. I care about her. I care about them. I think when there's five other families into it, yes, it becomes much more transactional. And I'm not really ready for that right now.
Two Parents & A Podcast

I just think it's largely like... I mean, this is more of a common theme. Where you'll over... I don't even know how to say. Yeah, yeah. I think you're, like, so concerned with burdening them, which is an amazing trait to have, that, like, you're letting that get in the way of this kind, you know... Relationship. Relationship and thing they want to do.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And when we see them, the first thing they do is come over and take Tate. Of course. The same way we go and take their child.

Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, I think this is something that I've seen a lot of between living in the different places that I've lived in, where I'll go and I'll make these friends. And then over time, you see these different individuals and friend groups start going through different seasons of life.

And what I found is, like, it can, like, sometimes you can want, like, almost develop, like, animosity because, like, why are you, you know, going in that direction when I'm going in an opposite direction, right? Like, I'm, you know, choosing to move to Hong Kong, single, and explore, you know, this high-growth part of the world with...
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
absolute freedom and no strings attached and you're getting engaged like what um and i like i feel like made the mistake of of then when i am on a completely different path that people like putting up a wall and letting distance develop between me and those people um and i've like caught myself doing that so what's your what's your do you like a tape like a
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
So what I try to do now is appreciate, one, just appreciate that everyone goes through life at their own time and really find the points of commonality that I have with those friends and latch on to those points of commonality and stay in connection with them through what commonalities we have. And then eventually when, if we do get back on the same path,
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
you know there there has been no animosity that's developed and you know we pick up pick up things right where we left off and like one really funny example of it that comes to mind is a good buddy of mine from vancouver um i don't know should i say his name or no sure sure elliot like elliot and i were on very different paths and like we stayed in touch through the canucks
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
We would just always whip Canucks articles back and forth. Because we just were on very different timelines. And funny enough, now things have reconnected. Because we both have young little... We both had kids the exact same age. And it's like things have picked up right where they... And no bet, there was never any blah, blah, never any animosity.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And like, you know, it's been really cool to watch that friendship go from like high school where we were here and then drift off to totally different paths and then come back around.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
We are.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
What? Yeah, no, I think that that... I think that makes a lot of sense. Obviously like you want to have friends that, that are understanding. And I think understanding in all facets of life, like that's something that I felt throughout my career as well.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Like when I've been grinding, whether it's through the naked market or in the finance days of like friends who would understand, like, yeah, like I need a bail because like I'm, I'm working till 11 PM tonight. And so I feel like that like hits with me beyond just like, just the kid piece.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I'm a mom. You're being a Debbie Downer.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah. But I find like when it comes to the parenting piece, like, It's like I kind of want to be real with this from the perspective of like, If, if you, like when I didn't have kids, I didn't like really care what was going on with my friend's kids as like shitty as that is to say. So like with my friends now that don't have kids, like I don't need you to pretend to care.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Like we built up enough common interest that like when we're hanging out, not like as, as much as I love Tate, like we don't need to talk about Tate. Cause like, I know you don't care about her sleeping schedule. I know you don't care or likely don't care about Tate. what's going on with her eating. And so let's talk about the things that we find funnier, we find interesting.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, but I just like still would rather like... you know, talk about things that, hopefully we're just talking about things where there's genuine interest, plain and simple.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
He's the best live performance I've seen in the past five years. Him and Miles Smith.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I think they care about their friends. Well, actually, everyone's so different. But I think in many scenarios, they care about their friends as opposed to caring about the details of their friends' children's lives. Obviously, they care about the babies. But what I don't think they care about is the sleep routine and the eating schedule and transition to solids. You know what I mean?
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
So I guess let me clarify that.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Cause like we have, we have our pockets of stuff that, that are pockets of like the foundation of our friendship that were not built around children. And so like, let's go lean into that. Even if we're talking about fast food subject matter.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Which is my favorite thing to call sports.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
In the weather.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
We were talking about sports and Pietro's like, I don't have time for fast food subject matter.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
That's who I saw at... You loved him. Yeah. The Stubbs Theater with my sister and Dave.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, I think, though, I think that just... I haven't made Julie laugh this episode, so clearly I'm not being funny.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I do.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I met a guy for coffee yesterday and I didn't know if I was going to tell him. And I didn't tell him. And I think he probably was like, this guy's an idiot.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
No, because you can't be like the excuse guy.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
You're a nice guy, though.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
No. Okay. So I met him seven minutes into the coffee when he told me he didn't have kids. I just got up and left.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, I just went to the bathroom and didn't come back.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Okay.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
We've been so busy.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, I completely agree.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
For sure. The thing I would add on is genuine positive reinforcement. Okay.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
When you're talking. To me, what rubs me the wrong way is when someone is clearly just like, even if they're saying something positive, when it's just disingenuous.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah. You know what I'm saying?
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Like, oh, they're just the best. It's like, no.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yes.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And I definitely do take note of the couple friends that are uplifting to their partners versus not.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, it would leave a very bad taste in my mouth.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
If it was my friend?
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Alex? I tell Alex everything.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I would literally tell this man everything in the world.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
That would be the worst idea in the world by her.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
You've lost me. I kind of tell my friends most things.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, I kind of think so.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
But I also like – one thing I love about my friends' partners is like I've never actually –
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Why would you let me throw back? Would you tell them?
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I think the point you're trying to hammer home is like is it leaves a bad taste in our mouths when we see partners talking shit about other partners.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
So here's one thing I called Alex on today.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
A hot sauce.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
No, Alex Cost.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
You said you made a comment.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
You made a comment the other day.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
You made a comment that I called Alex Cost about.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And I was like, I really like what you said.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah. What'd you say? And you were hanging out with a group of people and you said, when I leave that group of people, I really like the way they make me feel. And one thing that you're doing a lot of is when you leave a group of people, you think you're reflecting, am I walking away like with an uplifting energy or am I walking away with like a negative energy?
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yep.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And there's a lot of social situations that like I haven't been able to like nail the head on and like why just like don't like them. And me and him have that commonality. And it was like, that's it. It's like, I walk away from those situations and like, I just don't feel good about myself. Versus there are certain people that I walk away and like, I just, I've got a pop in my step.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Like when I talk to Tom Pitts, like I walk away from those conversations with a pop in my step. He's real, but he's very uplifting. Like when we're with the neighbors, I walk away from those situations with an absolute pop in our step. Like it's positive while being genuine.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And I definitely don't want this like to turn into an ad in any way.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Love it.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Not yet.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Okay. But more conversational versus like promotional.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Congrats, Nick.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Do you want to go or do you want me to go?
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
If you go first, I can build off yours, but I'm also happy to go first.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Oh, I like that.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Okay. Thank you.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, I echo that for sure. And the exact question was, what were things you wish you knew beforehand?
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And so on my end, while I agree with everything you said, I think that going into it, so much I heard about was like on prep for the baby side, where it's like, you know,
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And all of that kind of rings true around like the sleeping and the eating and, but like what I wasn't prepared for was both the physical and emotional toll it was going to take on you and the attention and support that your partner needs as well.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And so like really looking out for both parties is something that like I learned very quickly, but I didn't go into it with the mindset of like, what does mom need today? Mom's recovery is going to be really, really hard. The physical toll is really hard. The emotional toll, the hormones, all that's really hard. And that side of it isn't spoken about enough in my opinion.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I thought that you'd have the baby and things would be going back to normal a lot more quickly than they would have. And I'm sorry if I wasn't the supportive partner at any time that you did need.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
So Expo West is a great time. So Expo West, all the major retailers in the U S their buyers typically come to that show. And so it's a great time to like show new innovation and new products that, that you've worked on. And so every year we try to typically debut either a new line extension or new brand at, at Expo West.
Two Parents & A Podcast

Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I'll tell you another, if we're done with this, I'll tell you a kind of funny thing. So I was talking to my mom yesterday and my mom tried to call in and ask a question, but she couldn't figure it out.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)

Two Parents & A Podcast

Two Parents & A Podcast

Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Okay.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah. The only thing I know about this is, is I saw the headline that the authorities are unaware of any concert taking place. So it feels like 2.0 is going to be very similar potentially to 1.0.
Two Parents & A Podcast

No.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Get out of here.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Get the fuck out of here. Did you know anyone who was at Fire Festival 1?
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, I have.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
So I knew three people, two that were there and like were part of the lawsuit where he was like sending them fake wire money. And so they like owed them hundreds of thousands of dollars, if not like millions of dollars, because like they were contracted for content and like for production and all that stuff.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Uh, I don't know where things stand with the restitution. These are, aren't like good friends of mine. They're just people I know. Um, and then I did have one good friend who was there as an attendee, but, uh, he, that group managed to navigate. They sniffed it almost immediately when they landed and managed to coast on out of there in pretty smooth form.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And, and we get it in front of different retailers and you have a bunch of meetings and it's a, both productive time from a business perspective, but also like super fun just because of all the events that they have going on.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
They saw the smoke and they were out.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Totally.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah. I don't know any. Yeah.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I think that money goes back to, he's trying to pay his restitution.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I would assume so.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, but the question is, is he actually going to give them the money?
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Thank you for listening.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah. So we've been displaying at Expo at Expo for four years. We've been going to the show for five years. So the first year we just walked around and it felt like over the first couple of years, like there was always new brands that were, you know, had just launched that year were first time attendees. But the funding environment for startups has really dried up.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And so a lot of those brands have either gone out of business or really tightened up their budgets. And so there's not as many new brands there. It's typically brands that have been around for a long time. And so you see less new products from new brands and more new products from existing brands, if that makes any sense.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, which is an extension of flock. So flock is all chicken snacks and pantry items. And baconic is pork based. Bacon based. Bacon. Bacon based. So we have bacon jerky that will be coming out and some other things. That was the packaging I was showing you before this was the bacon jerky.

Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
And are we still thinking we're going to do the baby-led weaning?
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I love that. I think with baby-led weaning, the way I've read about it is it's like a slow reduction. So like if she's doing 25 ounces of milk a day today, that by the end of the first month, so like month seven, that goes down to like 20, 18 to 22 ounces typically. Yeah.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Well, first, I'm proud of you because you set the goal. And like many things, when you set a goal, you really like to stick to it. And I'm proud that you did get through it. Even if you had not gotten to six months, I still would have been proud of you.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah. Without a doubt.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I didn't think it was going to come. I just wanted to give you some love and support. I'm not really sure where I was going with that. Other than, I guess, we're about to get into crunch time on what actually...
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
happens and the balance between um what we're supplementing her real food with other than breast milk and if what if that's going to be formula or if it's not but we have the formula ready to go yeah some frozen breast milk oh b now we have six ounces that's one bottle we have six ounces of frozen breast milk harrison is acting like we got a whole freezer supply we don't have that

Hopefully the listener heard the sigh of stress.
Two Parents & A Podcast

I don't have to lie to you and tell you that it's good. And I fear the damage that you trying to put that concoction together will do to our kitchen.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah. But it's hard to like do a full like, you know, kind of cleanup when we're just going to have to start packing up in a couple of weeks.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I don't know. I think like long-winded way of saying we have zero leads on the housing front and we need to have a house on April 15th. And the timing is getting close.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Just read it. Don't try it.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
Yeah, I like love how we started this process with me being the like, we are good and not worried. And now like we're a month out and I'm just kind of like, what the fuck are we doing? But it will work out like there's enough places. I just like we haven't found one that that we love and that checks all the boxes.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
But I think we've learned a lot as different houses come up in terms of what we like, what we don't like, especially when it comes to location. The three L's of real estate.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
It is not away.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
I have a concussion.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
It's my first ever.
Two Parents & A Podcast
Can friendships survive kids?! (+ supporting your partner & living a more spontaneous life)
So basically what happened is I went to an open house. And this house, they built this like kind of upstairs attic thing that comes off of the living room. And so I walked up the spiral staircase. And the roof just like diagonally cut it. And I smoked my head as hard as I could have.
