Feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or a little lost? Might be time to outsource or hire some help! In this week’s episode, we discuss the ways in which we’ve both (individually and as a couple) recently asked for help and gotten it--and how this help has changed our lives for the better. We cover some of the factors to consider when deciding whether or not to outsource tasks or projects in your life, and as is to be expected, we go off on a few rants about household projects.

Ben takes the lead! And thus, in this week's episode, we tackle two of his recent obsessions. In the first half of the show, we talk spirit animals and Ben shares his recent "connection" with a wild animal in our yard. In the second half of the show, we discuss why laundry has become one of Ben's main life activities, what he can do about it, and some of the lessons that laundry (and other household chores) have to teach us.

In this week's episode, we welcome back last week's guest, Brian, for a second go-round during his second week in town.

We start the episode with a discussion of Tapas (the cuisine, not the sanskrit word) and then jump into a discussion of willpower--and more specifically, why we're motivated in some areas of our lives and super lazy in others.

The show ends with a segment all about engagement rings, getting engaged, and Brian's recent engagement experience. It's a fun one!

In this week’s episode, we’re revisiting a topic that we covered last season: guys + yoga--and specifically the question, why don’t more guys do yoga? Today, we take this conversation a bit further by chatting with our friend Brian about his recent foray into the world of yoga.

Brian is a big, athletic guy who, until shortly after hearing episode #8, had never done yoga before. Thus, he was the perfect person to interview about his yoga experience and was able to shed some serious light on this topic.

In the first half of the episode, Brian shares his preconceptions about yoga, his experience taking his first class, + what makes him feel awkward about being one of the only guys in class.

In the second half of the episode, we continue our discussion of why more guys don't do yoga, we discuss how teachers and studios can attract more guys, + Ben gets REAL (as usual).

We're baaaaaackkkkkk! In our Season #2 premiere we discuss the summer, share a special #firstworldproblems segment (inspired by my trip to Peru), chat about the show's format, and discuss a topic that Ben has been obsessed with over the past few months: sun exposure.
