6/17/20261 hr 33 min

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday (so weird it’s not Thurs?!) - we are OFFICIALLY 3 episodes a week… AND tomorrow we officially launch our SUBSTACK!!! 📝 We get into everything you can expect: a weekly newsletter including my favorite things I've been reading & learning, the best baby/toddler/mom products we're actually using, our podcast TLDR, plus exclusive live content, chat access & Q&A. Coming Thursdays at $6/month or $48/year ($4/month) — we are SO excited!!! You can subscribe here NOW: https://substack.com/@alexfugman !!! You guys we are ALL IN on the World Cup - there’s so many story lines: Argentina is BANNING 13K dads who haven't paid child support from going to the games (can we do this in the US?!), why Japan is the most beloved team in the tournament (the fans clean up the trash after the game out of respect for the host country?!) and the Cape Verde goalie who went from 40K to 9.1M FOLLOWERS overnight after tying Spain (the Taylor Swift of the World Cup) in their first World Cup ever. And because Father's Day is THIS WEEKEND, we put together some last minute gift ideas (+ more coming on the Substack tomorrow!!!). Plus, the life advice we got from a billionaire dad (our cliff hanger from last week), Harrison's 2 weeks off social media update (he's now a desktop-only kind of guy), the nanny share is BACK at our house & we might be adding a 3rd kid (!!), house updates (fences, front doors & blue porch ceilings to keep wasps away?!), and a debrief on whether Alex & Jules gang up on Harrison (hi Nori Minich!!). Plus, our shared finances dynamic ("WE bought a purse!!!"), our Summer House aftermath thoughts (we genuinely feel for Amanda now??), why waiters need to STOP announcing the non-alc beer orders (you're outing pregnancies!!!), and the viral dad who got the cops called on him for taking his daughters into the women's bathroom (where do we even start with this one).
