Welcome back to the Date Your Wife Podcast! In this episode, it’s just the two of us—real, unfiltered, and sometimes hilarious. We dive deep into the chaos of raising adult kids (who move out and… get dogs they can’t handle!), why having a third dog is a recipe for madness, and the truth about what makes a marriage work (even after 21 years, five kids, and enough pets for a small farm).

What we talk about in this episode:

Why our daughter got a high-energy Pitbull (and instantly regretted it)
The wild realities of parenting adult children
Hilarious and raw pet stories (including guinea pigs, Yorkies, and “mafia dogs”)
Honest marriage talk—connection, trust, respect, and why real conversations matter
The rise of loneliness in men, how marriage is evolving, and the biggest mistakes couples make today
Sex, money, and the not-so-glamorous realities of long-term relationships
How we keep rewriting the marriage playbook—and why you should too

You’ll also hear us ask ChatGPT some questions you never thought you needed answers to, get real about mom guilt, talk “man titties,” and explain why nobody wants to end up in a B-level marriage.
