Kids Are Weird Podcast
Hello Friends! We are Ashley & Josh. Just two parents raising a little weirdo, out here just doing our dang best. We created this podcast as a way to be that "village" that everyone talks about. We are by no means experts, and we don't have much advice. Our goal is to create a judgement free community that understands that kids are weird, and parenting is hard. We offer a raw view of Parenthood, and not gonna lie, we're funny af. We hope to make you laugh along with us, cry along with us, and make you feel like you're not alone in this crazy roller coaster ride called parenting.

Weddings Are Weird
Weddings are A LOT. They bring out the best in some of us, and the worst in others. People can get very weird about weddings, which makes sense. It's only like the biggest day of your life right? Listen to us chat about all the weirdness that c...

Kids Peeing On Things Is Weird
With new moments that no parenting book could ever prepare you for, we're starting to ask ourselves the following question: "Is everything just secretly covered in pee?" After some recent events, we're starting to think it just might be. ...

Having An Only Child isn't Weird
I think it's time we start to normalize only having one child. Especially, those of us who choose to have an only child. I grew up with the notion that only children are "weird" or "spoiled" but, now that I'm choosing to only have...

Quality Time *isn't* Weird
I feel like this episode doesn't really need much further explanation. We all kind of know that some good 'ol QT is sometimes exactly what the doctor ordered. Especially for kids. But also especially for marriages. I mean, really for any relati...

Trying To Conceive Is Weird
It's all fun and games when you're trying to make a baby... until it's not. The journey to parenthood isn't always the smoothest of roads and honestly, we don't feel like it's talked about enough. After months of doing the baby dance, mak...

Women's Sizing is Weird
We've talked about how kids clothing sizes are confusing af, but now we're going off about women's sizing. It makes no sense. Nothing about it. I can own several different pairs of things all in the exact same size, and they will all fit differ...

Fireworks are Weird
We figured that the 4th of July is a perfect time to talk about how much we absolutely can't stand fireworks. They're loud af. They're stressful. Is it fireworks or is it gun shots? Why are we hearing them at 2 in the afternoon?! Why are ...
