  • New Year, Same Bedtime
    Jan 16 2026
    In this New Year's episode, Jason and Jordan take a moment to reflect, reset, and look ahead as parents navigating life with young kids. We kick things off by unpacking the highs and lows of 2025, sharing the highlights (and the lowlights) of the year. With Christmas fresh in everyone’s minds, the conversation turns to celebrating the holidays with kids - specifically, how far parents should go to keep the 'Santa magic' alive. Jason and Jordan share their thoughts (and a few laughs) on navigating the Santa facade. We also chat about how we tackled New Year’s Eve with young children - do you keep the kids up until midnight and suffer the consequences the next day, or is everybody in bed at usual times to keep the little ones in routine? Finally, they wrap up by looking ahead to 2026, talking about goals, mindset shifts, and what they’re hoping for in the year to come. Learn more about your ad choices.
