Cat & Nat Unfiltered
The Homework Conundrum
As we get prepared to ring in the New Year we are bringing you another throwback episode. It’s no secret—we're not fans of homework. Some of our kids somehow turned out to be these super independent, on-top-of-it thinkers (seriously, how did that happen?), but others? Not so much. And for those kids, what are we even supposed to do? Are we meant to sit beside them while they work? Nag them to finish their homework every night? At what point are they just supposed to know that this is their responsibility? Should we let them experience the natural consequences of not getting it done, or is that too harsh? Honestly, HELP.

37. What Gabby's Story Taught Us
34:11||Season 13, Ep. 37This episode may not be an easy listen, but it’s an important one. The reality is, Gabby Petito could have been any of our daughters. Even if you already know the details, this new documentary offers a fresh perspective—a family's perspective. The relationship was controlling, but as parents, how do we help our adult children in situations like this? We’re so thankful her parents shared their story so openly.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Parenting Unfiltered: The Snapchat Generation
30:11||Season 13, Ep. 36As parents, we need to wake up—our teenagers have never known a world without Snapchat, and there’s an entire set of unwritten rules that no adult has subscribed to, checked, or even questioned. So, what do we do? Banning the phone isn’t the answer, but keeping the conversation going is. The unavoidable reality is that these devices are now their wallets, their transit passes, and their safety nets. It’s complicated, it’s frustrating, and we’re here to try and figure this world out "alongside" our children.For more info on our Screen Sense Guide, head to thecommonparent.comWant our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

It All Started At Starbucks
29:04||Season 13, Ep. 34When we sat down to talk about one of the biggest constants in our lives, we realized it was something so simple—Starbucks. It’s been there through all the kids and building our business. Here’s our look back at what Starbucks has meant to us over the years.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Parenting Unfiltered: When To Have “The Talk" with Alicia Crespin
35:53||Season 13, Ep. 33We sat down with The Tea: The Talk author Alicia Crespin for a candid chat about navigating those tricky (and often awkward) conversations with our kids. From puberty to relationships to the questions that catch us completely off guard, Alicia shares her wisdom on how to approach “the talk” with confidence—and maybe even a little humor. The Tea: The Talk isn’t just a parenting book; it’s a thought-provoking collection of stories from over 30 women, spilling the tea on their pasts. Because when we break the silence on stigmatized topics, we can empower the next generation. Known for her no-nonsense approach to tough conversations, Alicia is on a mission to make sure the next generation is the best one yet. For more on Alicia find her at https://www.aliciacrespin.com and @spilltheteawithalicia and head over to Amazon to get a copy of “The Talk”.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Lube Alone Isn’t the Answer
32:47||Season 13, Ep. 32Menopause research is finally getting the attention (and funding) it deserves. We dive into an old article on reviving your sex drive in perimenopause and have some thoughts. Our grandmas didn’t have hormone therapy, libido boosters, or fancy lubes—did they just suffer in silence, or did they know something we don’t? There’s no magic horny pill, and lube alone isn’t the answer. So what actually is? Disclaimer: In another life, we totally would have been doctors—but in this one, not so much. So, fair warning… we may have gotten a few facts wrong in this episode!Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

41:07||Season 13, Ep. 30We’re covering it all—starting with Nat looking damn good naked (and we are here for it). Then, we dream up the ultimate perimenopause retreat—a place where women can be treated like royalty and reset their mental health. And because we never miss a chance to talk about things we should know more about, we dive into prostate checks for men and what we actually know (or don’t know!) about them. Are they the male equivalent of a pap smear?Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

Parenting Unfiltered: Is 18 Still the Launching Age for Teens?
40:18||Season 13, Ep. 29This week we chatted about the ‘launching age for teens’ and how we feel that realistically it is no longer 18. Is this a reflection of how we parent? Some kids in the US will 'reclassify' to improve grades or become more competitive in sports. It seems like a positive spin when your kid is not ready for university. Is that the right approach? We also take an unexpected turn from a parenting podcast to a religious one at the end. Tune in as we try and figure it all out.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?
