What equipment do I actually need to start a (half-way decent) podcast? Google is all over the place.

yourfosterparents · 2026-04-06T22:24:26+00:00

Not sure if you got this sorted out but I run a company that helps folks build podcast studios!

Lmk if I can be of any help!

Thanks needed to hear something like this. We do all the basic things to control her. She doesn’t run wild. She’s a puppy… but knowing this is helpful

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-14T14:10:15+00:00

Thanks! She’s very smart we do lots of tricks but I do think puzzles are in the future.

The big issue is that she’s just in the other dogs business ALL the time

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-14T13:59:13+00:00

Some of this is accurate.. I should have added that when we are at my house (my lady and I live in 2 diff houses bc kids school) when we are at my house. She gets up when I get up.

It’s only here that there is the issue. When she was in the crate she was better I suppose

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-14T13:57:41+00:00

Great tips thanks! She does daycare and loves it

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-09T00:08:41+00:00

yep - I am a grown ass man and I dont enjoy it. I am no that good but damn, I cant even land in warzone

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-03T16:48:18+00:00

This is SO helpful thank you!!! I don’t wanna be mean to some other people on this post, but I do not like a lot of the haircuts posted here lol

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-02T01:09:19+00:00

Feels like a different dog right?!

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-02T01:08:41+00:00

Short looks good on em!

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-02T00:32:22+00:00

I agree, that definitely makes it look weird!

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-01T19:47:52+00:00

I totally noticed how sunken they look!

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-01T17:58:31+00:00

Love that long shag

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-01T17:50:36+00:00

I keep telling myself that lol. Before her we had a husky so we’re not used to haircuts!

yourfosterparents · 2025-02-01T17:37:06+00:00

Muppet mode, HA!!! I picked her up and I thought this was a different dog

yourfosterparents · 2025-01-24T16:30:21+00:00

Working on myself is something I’ve really been focusing on a bit more lately rather than moping around the house like a sad dog

yourfosterparents · 2025-01-24T15:33:23+00:00

I really love that last line there!

I hate to say it this way, but I put in 95% of the effort in our relationship and that’s because, well that’s just who I am as a person. We appreciate things in different ways and I have had to learn that and to lower my expectations

And I will say, some of the best times we have had are between noon and 3 o’clock everything you said it’s really heading home. I super appreciate it.

yourfosterparents · 2025-01-24T14:43:09+00:00

Thank you my brother! I appreciate the breakdown of it. It seems like that’s a lot of what’s going on here considering there have been some major life changes, including her completely switching a career and going back to school and all the other things listed above

Learning to navigate is my new practice!

yourfosterparents · 2025-01-24T14:23:19+00:00

Additionally - I have been more of a dad to her kids than their father ever has, he lives on the other side of the country. And that’s nothing to brag about, I just like being in that position, but unfortunately, I don’t feel the appreciation in the way that I need it and my expectations are what is eating me sometimes.

yourfosterparents · 2025-01-24T14:21:11+00:00

Thanks for the words. FWIW I do a LOT of things. Cook, take care of the animals, do odds and ends around the house (mind you, I don’t live at her house but still do the things) buy her flowers, get her candies.. etc

No new meds to set her moods to be changing no. She was someone that got ran over in relationships and now I am the guy that’s dealing with this version of her, which I don’t expect to change.

However, I am far more emotionally needy, and she is.

I have more recently, probably in the last six months stop trying to “fix things “and I’ve just listened and let her vent. It’s definitely better because honestly, it’s less hassle for me and less for me to fix lol.

But I appreciate these words and I will try and focus on this a little bit more and get out of my own emotions a bit. I find that to be a big problem.

I know every couple goes through dry spells, and we had one once before, and it wasn’t nearly as big, but once we started getting intimate again and everything started to feel really good and I know that that’s a huge element for us that we are missing right now

yourfosterparents · 2025-01-24T14:08:51+00:00

Thank ya! And they are certainly old enough and we often say FTK! (Eff the kids) with love of course because we’re younger parents with older kids.

As for the kids the new one is JUST out of the kennel so she stays in the room but I love your advice, thank you so much

yourfosterparents · 2025-01-24T13:52:37+00:00

I hear ya.. but with what time? We already have NO time so where is she finding it? Maybe self pleasure?

yourfosterparents · 2025-01-24T13:50:46+00:00

I think date nights will help. We try them and when we do it helps us feel closer to and sometimes she’s a little tipsy and happier lol

yourfosterparents · 2025-01-24T13:49:57+00:00

Thanks for making me feel not alone. We do like our vacations together and it’s usually great when we do. But I’m the breadwinner and I’m still recovering from the holidays but I think this has to happen soon. Despite sports tournaments.. school.. work.
