Description

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2615407/fan_mail/new] The people who actually know Haily and Rick? They get it. They see them together and the age gap just stops being the thing. But not everyone has taken the time to actually look. This week Haily and Rick talk about the full picture of their family — the friends who came around, the ones who are still getting there, and the community of age gap couples who found them once they started being open about their story. Plus the moment Haily’s five year old came home from a trip, looked right past her, and said — where’s Rick? Warm, honest, and a little bit of a lot. 📲 Find us on Instagram & TikTok: @theagegapeffect 📩 Send us your Caught In The Gap stories — DM us!

Episode 5: "New City, New Life"

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2615407/fan_mail/new] Starting over is hard. Starting over with a kid, a new city, and a podcast is a whole different level. This week Haily and Rick talk about leaving Las Vegas after 10 years, retiring from a 15 year career, and landing in Los Angeles with no roadmap and a lot of optimism. The compound dream that started it all, the hard weeks of finding their footing, and what a regular day actually looks like when you're building something new from scratch. Spoiler: the middle finger is the international hello in LA. They're thriving anyway. 🌴 📲 Find us on Instagram & TikTok: @theagegapeffect 📩 Send us your Caught In The Gap stories — DM us!

Episode 3: “The Math”

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2615407/fan_mail/new] Every age gap couple has done it. Alone, in the dark, at some point — you’ve done the math. The ages, the timelines, the years. And then you closed that tab and went and made a snack and pretended you weren’t just spiraling. This week Haily and Rick open the tab. Out loud. Together. They talk about the moment age finally came up between them, the dark humor that gets them through the hard thoughts, why they go to couples therapy, and the real fear underneath all the jokes. And why after all of it — they’d choose each other anyway. This is the episode that goes to the real places. Bring a snack. You might need it. 📲 Find us on Instagram & TikTok: @theagegapeffect 📩 Send us your Caught In The Gap stories — DM us!

Episode 2: “The Look”

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2615407/fan_mail/new] You know The Look. The elevator scan. The double take. The smile that’s trying to be nice but the eyes are doing something completely different. If you’ve ever been in an age gap relationship you know exactly what we’re talking about. This week Haily and Rick break down the many varieties of The Look, share their best public moments — including a school secretary who had no filter — and launch their brand new recurring segment: Caught In The Gap. Because the awkward moments deserve their own segment. Also: Haily’s son has a category in his brain for men of a certain age. Rick may or may not be in it. 📲 Find us on Instagram & TikTok: @theagegapeffect 📩 Send us your Caught In The Gap stories — DM us!

Episode 1: “How It Started”

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2615407/fan_mail/new] What happens when you meet the right person at a charity poker tournament and they just happen to be 35 years older than you? You stop overthinking it and you say yes. In our very first episode, Haily and Rick introduce themselves, tell the story of how they met, and share what it’s really like to be in a relationship with a 35 year age gap. From the secret wingman operation Rick didn’t know he had, to the restaurant that almost closed on them because they couldn’t stop talking, to the car ride home where they finally said the thing nobody had said all night — this is how it started. Funny, real, and completely unfiltered. Welcome to The Age Gap Effect.
