It's gift giving season in the Adams household, and for our podcast return we talk about some of the best gifts we've given each other and what kinds of gifts make good (and bad) gifts for kids. 

Is one of us a secret sports fan? You tell us. Two not-sports fans try to talk about sports in this sports-centric episode, including a secret love of quarterbacks and being a soccer mom / little league dad.

When it comes to new social media channels, one of us is an early adopter whereas the other is a self-proclaimed curmudgeon. This week we discuss our social media usage and discuss how this technology has (and has not) improved our lives. We cover blogs, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and Periscope and weigh the pros and cons of each, laughing the entire time.

Indiana swore she'd never homeschool. Find out how she completely changed her mind and started our four year old in his first year of home education.

As two opposite people, we of course have two opposite kinds of music we love. Will Taylor Swift and Guns N' Roses be our common ground? 

We return from vacation to a house less messy than when we left. See how long that lasts and why we have trouble keeping a tidy house.

While we are on vacation, we allowed Jude, our four year old, to record a mini-episode in which he pitches his idea for his own podcast. 

We discuss the illusive, fickle thing called sleep. We chat about how much we currently sleep versus how much we want to sleep versus how much we need to sleep, and Indiana shares some of her parasomnia experiences.

Episode six rules. Or rather it's all about rules: what rules we had growing up, what rules our kids have now, and which of those were good and which weren't so good.  Show notes can be found on our blog at momjeansanddadjokes.com and Indiana is on Instagram and Twitter under @indianaadams. 

In episode five, we talk about how friendship evolves from elementary school to post college. Our friend Sully from Sully By The Numbers shares how people are worth pursuing, and then we form our fantasy friendship squads.  Show notes can be found on our blog at momjeansanddadjokes.com05 and Indiana is on Instagram and Twitter under @indianaadams.

In episode four, we talk about how parenting and getting older has changed our personal style. Our friend Jen from Jen Loves Kev joins us for a bit, and then we reminisce about that time Indiana tried to pick out Chris' clothes for him for an entire year. We end by briefly talking about intentional shopping rather than trend chasing. We're proud to promote our partnering brand Purpose Boutique during this show.

For our third episode, we talk about fitness. We weigh the pros and cons of skinny over strong, we compare "mommy body" to "dad bod", and we discuss some of our own workouts and fitness goals. Huge thanks to podcast sponsor LUNA Protein bars.  Show notes can be found on our companion blog at momjeansanddadjokes.com and Indiana is on Instagram and Twitter under @indianaadams. 

For our second episode, we talk about one of our favorite things: food. We mainly talk about meat, but we talk about desserts and favorite restaurants, too. Our two year old makes a cameo and we end by marveling at competitive eaters. Special thanks to our sponsor Honest Tea!

In our inaugural episode, we tell you a little bit about ourselves, both before and after kids. We deduce that your favorite Muppet says a lot about who you are, and we try to determine which Muppet our children are. Our four year old son asks us questions on-air as we scramble to come up with answers, and we give our show partner DogVacay.com some kudos.
