Two Parents & A Podcast
Welcome to our home. Sorry it's messy. We're two parents raising our two kids, figuring out life as we go. From potty training to pop culture to occasionally what's going on with the S&P 500, we're having the after-bedtime conversations every couple has, just on a mic, three days a week. Hosted by Alex & Harrison Fugman. Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Or follow us for more @twoparentsandapod. (ps Harrison would like to clarify that anything he says is #NotFinancialAdvice)
