Have Kids, They Said…

In this episode of Have Kids They Said, Rich and Nicole tackle everything from spring cleaning chaos to marital attraction, and can it ever be a bad thing? Nicole ties that into a classic Matt moment involving foot-in-mouth syndrome, while Rich spirals over the rise of kid sports and Emmy becoming socially independent (aka leaving him out). The duo also debates neighborhood dog etiquette, share Benny’s birthday antics, relive a baseball fight involving “team grandpa,” and cringe as Matt gives Keegan’s teammates ridiculous nicknames. Plus, Parker’s got viral snack requests for Rich’s NYC trip, and there’s talk of a wellness article promising total mind-body balance—sure, Jan. Don’t miss the laughs, the love, and the low-key therapy session. Subscribe, share, and follow Have Kids They Said wherever you get your podcasts!

On this episode of Have Kids They Said, Nicole is using the show as her personal GRWM moment—because why not podcast and contour at the same time? Meanwhile, Rich dives into the science of “Super Agers” and wonders if surviving on cold coffee and leftover mac and cheese is disqualifying him from the club. The parenting duo tackles the internet’s latest controversy: the new Lilo & Stitch live-action remake. Then it’s onto the wild rise of the Savannah Bananas—part baseball, part circus, all chaos—and why kids (and their exhausted parents) are here for it. Nicole and Rich also debate which of our childhood movies still resonate with today’s kids— it’s a generational vibe check. Nicole also confronts a parenting dilemma: dirty jokes and innuendos...do you explain it, ignore it, or pretend you didn’t hear the question while texting your therapist? In the listener inbox, one dad asks if he went too far for his daughter's first date, and another listener needs guidance on food etiquette at kids’ parties—how much food are we talking? Plus, long-term storage at Grandma’s house.  New episode. New drama. Same parenting energy.

And yes, there's even a battle over Parker's clothes brewing between Nicole and Matt. The conversation spirals delightfully through gullible childhood moments, why teens today don’t care about driver’s licenses, Gen X grievances, and how getting a specialist doctor appointment feels harder than winning the lottery.

With Nicole off on a well-earned vacation, Rich is joined by his longtime radio pal Niko for a dad-filled takeover of the pod. The two kick things off reminiscing about becoming dads around the same time, how their crew first came together, and the wild ride from those early days to now.   They dive into their joint Memorial Day weekend adventure, featuring a whirlwind trip to Legoland and the San Diego Zoo with the families, where carnival games stole their wallets, animals got unexpectedly scandalous, and what their kids declared “fancy”.   Niko also shares a bizarre tangent into “conception photography” (you’ve been warned), and the guys commiserate over the looming question every parent is asking right now: what the heck are we doing with these kids all summer? From the idea of sleepaway camps to letting the kids make their own summer bucket lists, the panic is real, but at least they’re in it together.   We want to hear from you!
