    Welcome back to another episode of Midwest Married. Maintaining a happy/healthy relationship, kids, friendship, intimacy and everything else that could come at you in this crazy thing we call life.

    52 episodes in, and what better way to celebrate than by talking all things anniversary—from sweet traditions to total disasters.

    This week, we’re serving up hot takes on practical vs. passionate gifts, debating if it’s weird to party with friends on your anniversary, and dishing about the chaos that unfolds when outsiders crash your romantic plans. Oh—and we ask the big question: should you still celebrate if tragedy strikes? As always, we mix the heartfelt with the hilarious. One year down, and we’re just getting started.

    Welcome back to another episode of Midwest Married. Maintaining a happy/healthy relationship, kids, friendship, intimacy and everything else that could come at you in this crazy thing we call life.

    We kicked off this episode with a throwback to middle school choir—warming up our voices like we were about to perform at a 7th grade talent show (spoiler: we weren’t).

    From there, it’s a wild ride through some of Reddit’s most chaotic and trending relationship stories. We’re talking:
    – Being naked in bed with your spouse and still getting turned down
    – The trip fund that mysteriously turned into a personal emergency fund
    – And the infamous “work husband”… getting a little too comfy with the family on a group trip

    Some boundaries were definitely crossed—and we’re here to unpack every awkward, hilarious, and eyebrow-raising moment.

    🎤 Let’s warm up those vocal cords and get into it.

  • 50: Dome Home to Dream Home
    Jun 4 2025
    Welcome back to another episode of Midwest Married. Maintaining a happy/healthy relationship, kids, friendship, intimacy and everything else that could come at you in this crazy thing we call life.

    From Dome Home to Dream Home — this week on Midwest Married, we're sharing a personal chapter that’s been a year in the making. We walk you through how we bought a collapsing dome home (yes, really), tore it down, and began the wild adventure of building our dream house from the ground up.

    We cover everything from the chaos of breaking ground to the lessons learned one year later—and of course, we couldn’t resist digging into some Reddit stories about home-building nightmares and construction drama. And if you’ve ever helped family with a house project and instantly regretted it, the final story might hit a little too close to home.

  • 49: Girl Code
    May 21 2025
    Welcome back to another episode of Midwest Married. Maintaining a happy/healthy relationship, kids, friendship, intimacy and everything else that could come at you in this crazy thing we call life.

    From silent side-eyes to full-on betrayal, this week’s episode is all about Girl Code—what it is, how it’s broken, and why it matters. We get into the unwritten rules of loyalty, whether it’s backing your bestie, not dating her ex, or just supporting each other’s wins. But what happens when women go against the code? We spill personal stories, share listener write-ins, and tackle the darker side—like when women undercut other women out of jealousy. If you’ve ever felt the sting of a broken sisterhood, or questioned whether you should speak up, this one’s for you.

    Because at the end of the day, shouldn’t we all just be each other’s hype women?

  • 48: Ridiculous Roommates
    May 14 2025
    Welcome back to another episode of Midwest Married. Maintaining a happy/healthy relationship, kids, friendship, intimacy and everything else that could come at you in this crazy thing we call life.

    This week on Midwest Married, it's all about roommates. We’ve all had a roommate who left dishes in the sink or cranked the thermostat a little too high — but what about the one who stole your vibrator?

    Or the one who tried to poison your snacks so you’d stop eating their food?
    Yeah… this episode isn’t your average roommate rant.

    From stealing furniture to next-level passive-aggressive behavior, we’re sharing the most ridiculous roommate stories we’ve ever heard — plus a few personal ones.

    Whether you had a college roommate who “borrowed” your stuff permanently or you’re currently living with someone who treats the fridge like a free-for-all, this one’s for you.

  • 47: Puberty Party
    May 7 2025
    Welcome back to another episode of Midwest Married. Maintaining a happy/healthy relationship, kids, friendship, intimacy and everything else that could come at you in this crazy thing we call life.

    This week on Midwest Married, we get personal about the "Birds & the Bees" convo while reliving our own memories of the talk. We dive into some jaw-dropping Reddit stories that make puberty even more complicated than it already is.

    We’re talking moms who think manscaping is immoral, girlfriends who think period education between siblings is disturbing, and a hygiene-obsessed mom shaming her daughter for not being a "clean lady." And yes, we go there: hair or no hair down there? It's more than just personal—it's divisive. Buckle up, because this one gets hairy… literally.

  • 46: Moved Out, Matched Up, Messed Up
    Apr 30 2025
    Welcome back to another episode of Midwest Married. Maintaining a happy/healthy relationship, kids, friendship, intimacy and everything else that could come at you in this crazy thing we call life.

    Buckle up—our third episode of listener write-ins takes us everywhere. We kick things off with the excitement of moving out at 18... but make it spicy by adding a significant other to the mix. Nothing tests young love quite like sharing bills, chores, and passive-aggressive texts from your mom.

    Next, we take a serious turn as a listener asks if they should reconnect with a former role model who has since... well, unalived someone. It’s a tough one, and we try our best to walk the fine line between thoughtful advice and not spiraling into a true crime podcast. Finally, we dive into one of the internet’s most controversial questions: is it ever okay to propose at, or around, someone else’s wedding?

    As always: awkward laughs, questionable advice, and zero regrets.

  • 45: Birthday Bliss || Midwest Married Podcast
    Apr 23 2025
    Welcome back to another episode of Midwest Married. Maintaining a happy/healthy relationship, kids, friendship, intimacy and everything else that could come at you in this crazy thing we call life.

    It’s birthday season over at Midwest Married—and with all the candles comes all the chaos. In this episode, we unwrap everything from cake catastrophes to over-the-top efforts to make someone feel special (and the ungrateful guests who still aren’t satisfied).

    We get into the pressure of trying not to disappoint Grandma, even when the only thing your wine-loving heart really wants to do is to wear a crown and drink mead. (looking at you, Ren Fest). Do you bend to family expectations, or do you fight for your right to party in chainmail?
