Married Not Dead

The MND Crew is excited to share with you the Modern Relationship Series, a monthly topic that we announce in advance on social media (@_marriednotdead) and break into four weeks/four episodes. The series topic for August is Shared Goals, and this week we discuss how to create, manage, and stick to shared goals focused on your Kid's Activities. We also debate the power of compensating for your shortcomings and why it's not always beneficial to pronounce a word correctly.  This week's episode is sponsored by Audible.

In this episode, the crew asks the question, "How expensive is it to raise kids?" If you're thinking less than an $1 million, you're thinking too small. We discuss bullying and a woman's role in moving society past using the word Gay as an insult. We dissect what it means to be pan-sexual, non-binary and debate whether or not labels are antiquated. And finally, we talk about the power of "The Chip." This week's episode is sponsored by Audible.

In this episode, we debate on whether or not R.Kelly's sex cult is legal and why parents drop off their daughters to a known Butt Diddler (we explain). We question the sanity behind asking our wives to make small behavioral changes. For example, cleaning their hair from the shower or putting the phone back on the charging base. After a friend tells Nick that she "Loves her husband, but is not in love with him," we converse about what that means and what it will take to ensure we don't suffer the same fate.

This week, the crew ponders how much drinking is too much drinking, how long should we mourn our wives or our failed relationships, and should we champion our children's step-parents. Other topics include: Jason discussing how to be thrown out of a bar defending your wife in three easy steps and is it possible to avoid a case of the Friday's (we explain) if you're not working your dream job. After a year of training, Nick got to put his money where his mouth is as he had the week off to live out one of his dreams. This week's episode is sponsored by Audible.

In this episode, the crew is one man down (Jason), but Brian, Chris, and Nick keep the convo lively. We talk about whether or not this moment is the best time of our lives (and if so, would we want to go 'Groundhog Day' in our lives), are we growing in our marriages or are our marriages growing on us, and we briefly discuss Jason's unfortunate porch accident.
