You pop the question and give your significant other an engagement ring on Christmas Day. But OH NO! It doesn't work out and you never get married! So is the ring then considered a gift? I discuss all of that and what others said about the issue. Let just say there were A LOT of different thoughts on this!

What is on your bucket list? What would you like to do before you leave this earth? With the new year approaching I decided to make a bucket list of things I would like to do and I decided to share that list.

One of my all time favorite shows, Supernatural, came to an end last night. For 15 years this was a show I made a point to watch when it aired. After the finale, I just kept thinking back on the last 15 years of my life while watching this show. I share those stories and what I enjoyed about this show and how much I will miss it.

When you hear, "Honey, my water broke!", and you calmly go to the hospital to have your child. Yeah that didn't happen with us! There was false information, speeding, me not believing she was in labor, and a selfie! All that and more on this weeks episode!

It's the night that lights went out in Georgia! Ok maybe not Georgia but they sure as hell went out in my house in the middle of recording this episode. Towards the end the transformer for my house was attacked by ants! Yep you heard that correctly!

Raising kids is so easy! Said NO ONE EVER!!! Don't get me wrong having kids is one of the greatest things out there, but it's not easy at all! If anyone looks like they have it all together and it's simple, that is just on the outside. Inside they are going nuts!

I'm at the stage now where both my little girls eat "grown up" food. Let's just say what I picture in my head, or what I hope happens, when we are eating dinner is very different then what actually happens.

Come take a ride with me as you see what's it's like when you have kids and try to feed them.

Ever think to yourself, man I could sell homes? Well a good buddy of mine does just that! Freddie Palomarez sells homes around the Houston area. It's not an easy business to get into either. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication.

We discuss the ins and outs of working in real estate, how COVID has changed things up a bit and made it difficult, and the do's and don't when buying or selling your home.

He also reminds me that we have know each other since T-ball, which I 100% forgot about. It was good catching up with him so take a listen and enjoy!

Mental health is not a topic people believe is worth talking about. Not on this show! Postpartum depression is a real thing. I've seen it 1st hand with my wife Megan. She was brave enough to come on and discuss her postpartum depression she had after having our oldest daughter, and still going through it today.

We discuss the struggle that she has with it, the fights it lead to between us, and how communication was key to us dealing with it.

My hope with this episode is for women to know they are not alone with her story. My other hope is that guys listen to this and learn that this will/does effect them too. They have a role to play in this and there is a way for them to help.
