71. Guest-Jen Aloisi Ham- Jacka$$ Boy Children, 30 something friendships, Tennessee Hot Chicken & Southern Dog Whistles - a podcast by Chris Ham

I introduce the episode sharing excitement around a new car, a new restaurant, and what makes my favorite month of September particularly special this year.

My wife Jen Aloisi Ham joins the show for the first time in a bit:

I start trying to understand why stray laundry stresses Jen out and dbate the merits of segregating "outdoor" and "indoor" clothing.

We then jump into breaking down our Nashville trip and what lessons we learned as first and last plane trip as a family of 4 until we become a family of FIVE very soon.

We then segue to talking about the south.  We talk about the racist remnants and the artifacts that exist subtly. In spite of all the technology in 2021, the word of Covid apparently hasn't made its' way down south.

Then we segue to talking about our family expansion and baby boy Ham on his way. We hammer a couple of the weird cliche questions we have gotten since sharing the news with people including why one question is particularly STUPID.

We anticipate having a boy and what terrifies us about the new gender in our household.

We discuss our dog's injury in spite of his laziness.

We then talk about friendships around this phase of life, aspirational role model parents in their 40s, and hypothesize why certain couples get along.

Are husbands bad photo takers? What drives this? 

We end with some Kardashian talk and the partner picking challenges, the phenomenon of their fame, and I can't think of anyone who I would be more star struck if I ran into them.  

We cap the show off with a quick NFL discussion about high level predictions and the spectacle of the Cowboys on Hard Knocks.
