This week, we're celebrating a major milestone: Episode 50! 🎉

Before diving into Dear Roses, Sophia and Bradley discuss surviving the UK's latest heatwave, why British houses seem designed to trap heat, questionable haircut experiences, postpartum hair regrowth, thrift store toy discoveries, and Grayson's latest obsession: a garden hose.

Then it's time for Dear Roses, where listeners submit their biggest friendship, family, parenting, and relationship dilemmas.

In this episode:

• Is it ever okay to date your friend's ex?
• My partner hates my best friend. Should I force them to spend time together?
• My in-laws completely ignore our parenting rules. Is it time for a confrontation?
• My friend started therapy and now weaponizes therapy language. Am I the problem or are they?
• Plus: the surprising ways relationships change, setting boundaries with family, and why Bradley would make a terrible therapist.

This week, Sophia and Bradley are running on zero sleep and pure chaos before Bradley heads to Wales and Grayson gets his helmet adjusted in London. What starts as a casual catch-up somehow spirals into arguments about driving, disappearing fireflies, space movies, birthday expectations, gross public behavior, and whether modern socks are literally designed to self-destruct.

They also dive into the tiny things that suddenly feel exciting as parents, why one random trip to Mango became Sophia’s Roman Empire, and the surprisingly emotional realization that maybe this season of life is a little less glamorous than they imagined. Plus: psychotic behaviors we’ve all normalized, movie reviews no one asked for, and Bradley discovering Sophia apparently doesn’t always wash her legs properly.

In this episode:

• Grayson’s helmet therapy update
• The great driving debate
• Why fireflies are disappearing
• The movie that made Bradley feel smart
• The “best day ever” that involved Mango and burgers
• Are socks secretly designed to fall apart?
• Psychotic behaviors we’ve normalized as adults
• Public bathrooms, subway germs & shoes in bed
• Why parenting completely changes what a “fun” day looks like

If you’ve ever romanticized a trip to the mall, argued over public hygiene, or questioned whether you’ve lost your edge after becoming parents… this one’s for you.
