    Happy November sisters!!! New month, new us!!

    I feel like we’re back in the groove of OG Your Poor Dad, can you guys let us know how you’re feeling about the episodes? We highlyyyy value your feedback!

    We kick of the episode reminiscing on some classic 90s stories including Face from Nick Jr, Paige overdosing on Dimeatapp, and Baily’s milk addiction which always ended up in us having to go on a hunt for her nasty rotting sippy cups.

    Voting in Austin is tomorrow so PLEASE VOTE!!!!!!!

    We then talk about Miranda Lambert headlining the Cowboys halftime show which leads us into talking about Carrie Underwood’s face, do you remember that whole ordeal?

    Bailiy is finally on the mend after a brutal sick week, Jade gives Whistler by Ann Patchett the official Jade Brandt stamp of approval, and one random text from a friend sends us down a rabbit hole about our dads and vasectomies. Mom and Dad, please do not tell us.

    We debate decorating for Christmas before Thanksgiving tell us what we should do!!!!

    SPOILER WARNING: we finally break down You Can See Everything, the Elizabeth Holmes documentary. Did she know about the deal? What does the title really mean? And BILLY. If you haven't watched it yet, skip from 27:45 to 46:40.

    Then we get into the H3 cheating scandal, have you guys seen this?! It is all over our FYPs and it is rocking us.

    Episode 130

    Show notes

    WARNING: There’s a boy in our midst!! Mr. Roberts aka NICK aka Jade’s fiance makes his Your Poor Dad debut. Paige is at a work conference so we had to call in reinforcements.

    In this episode, we catch up about our weekends and the big UT vs Oklahoma game. Baily is a UT alum and Nick is a UT bandwagon fan so the upset was felt.

    We also talk about the viral video where the question is asked; is it rude to ask to stay with your friends? We also discuss what are the best cities to be single in.

    Then we discuss dating in your 30s. Jade and Nick go through their dating journey; meeting on Bumble, dating other people, Nick’s “honest lifestyle”, and when Jade said “it’s time to define the relationship” and almost had to walk away.

    We then answered sister questions! How we plan to balance parenthood with entrepreneurship, Nick’s dating non-negotiables, what makes a good first date, signs a man is actually ready to settle down, and what being a CEO has taught Nick about relationships.

Taylor Frankie Paul has turned into a monster and is terrorizing everyone, making the show harder to watch. Mikayla leaves the show and takes a stand against TFP’s behavior. Jessi has the biggest crush on Chase who looks just like Tommy Pickles, if he was grown up.

    Next, we talk about Earle Girls! We discuss the most un-relatable thing about the 2 sisters: they’re HUGGING sisters. We also think that it was so amazing that Alix and Ashtin shared their testing for the BRCA gene and think they will help so many people.
