Episodes

  1. One Says Let Him Quit. Other Said Absolutely Not.

    Our son wanted to skip practice. Dwayne said kids don't get to opt out of what their parents decide is good for them. Patrice said a teenager who never makes decisions turns into an adult who can't make them. We never agreed. We didn't even get to the intro until eight minutes in. This is the...

  2. Wife Says Ban the Bonnets. I'm Not Sold.

    Patrice is a thousand percent behind Tuskegee banning do-rags and bonnets on campus. Dwayne isn't sold.

  6. Marriage Isn't Hard. Life Is Hard.

    Everybody told Dwayne not to get married. Sixteen years later, we're picking up the conversation nobody has honestly: is marriage actually hard work, or is life hard and marriage is what makes it lighter?
