This episode kicks off with one of Scott and Angie’s signature random questions, setting the tone for a fun, honest conversation before diving into one of the most common DIY arguments: why men tend to measure space while women tend to feel it.
From hanging pictures to furniture placement and TV mounting, they share hilarious real-life examples of how different approaches to space—numbers versus function—can turn simple DIY projects into debates. Scott and Angie break down why just because something fits doesn’t mean it works, how perception matters as much as measurements, and why the tape measure doesn’t always tell the whole story.
Packed with practical DIY advice, relationship-friendly insight, and plenty of laughs, this episode proves that good DIY isn’t just math—it’s how people actually live in a space.

Doubt is part of every faith journey, and how we handle it can define both us and our marriage. In this episode, Scott and Angie have an honest conversation about Christian doubt and faith in marriage — including why mismatched marriages happen, how they develop over time, and what to do when spouses grow at different speeds or in different directions. They also discuss marriages that begin unequally yoked, including when one spouse is not Christian from the start. This episode explores mismatched marriages, spiritual growth after marriage, changing values, and how doubt can either divide a relationship or strengthen it. Scott and Angie break down why marriage works best as a team, how to allow your spouse to grow, and how faith, doubt, and healthy communication can lead to deeper connection and lasting unity.

In this episode, we unpack the two big apology patterns that show up in relationships: avoiding apologies altogether and apologizing way too much. Scott talks about why some people struggle to say “I’m sorry” — how it can feel like losing, admitting something they don’t believe, or triggering shame instead of repair. Angie brings the opposite perspective, sharing what it’s like to over-apologize, take on blame that isn’t yours, and default to “sorry” even when nothing is wrong.

Together, we dig into the psychology behind both extremes, how they create tension in relationships, and why couples often bounce between the two. We also talk about healthier ways to repair, how to apologize without betraying yourself, and how to stop using apologies as a peacekeeping strategy.

If you’ve ever wondered why apologizing feels so hard — or why you can’t stop apologizing — this episode will hit home and help you find a better middle ground.

This episode dives into the garage—one of the most misunderstood spaces in modern home life. Is it a place for cars, clutter, or escaping the world for 15 minutes? We explore how the garage has evolved, why it’s replacing the front porch, and whether it’s truly a “man space”… or if that even matters anymore. With humor and real-life stories, we unpack how garages shape family life, neighborhood culture, and everyday routines—and why this often-overlooked space has become a surprising hub for creativity, DIY projects, and even future business startups.
