Parenting classes, baby names & is breakfast actually the most important meal of the day?!

from Two Parents & A Podcast · host Alex & Harrison Fugman

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re asking the big parenting (and life) questions: should parenting education be required for every new mom and dad? Why is it so hard to name your kid? And… is breakfast really the most important meal of the day?? (do you guys know where this actually came from??). Before that, we’re debating when fall actually starts (September? weather? football?) and how football culture completely changes once you have kids. Plus, an “Unknown Number: The High School Catfish” review (this story is INSANE), and we’re back with more ads that have shaped US culture. And in Things We DMed: is AI really the future of dating apps (yes - according to the Bumble founder), and what happens when you cut ultra-processed foods for a month? (+ a practical tip!) LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
