S2 Ep17: House Rules: The Unspoken Agreements Keeping Us Married
Apr 29, 2025
Show notes
You know you're really married when you stop fighting about who takes the trash out… and just silently accept your fate. In this episode, we’re airing out all the unspoken agreements that run our house—who gets up with the kids, why the thermostat is a war zone, and the invisible contracts we didn’t even know we've made over the years. Welcome to our House Rules: where love means never having to say, ‘Can you do the taxes again this year?'
S2 Ep16: Who Did I Marry?! | What We Wish We Knew Before saying “I Do”
Apr 22, 2025
Show notes
You think you know someone… and then you get married. In this brutally honest episode of Sheena Interrupted, we peel back the curtain on what really changes after “I do.” From unfiltered confessions to surprising revelations, we dive into the little things no one warns you about: clashing routines, strange habits and the joy of realizing your partner is exactly who you thought they were (for the most part). Tune in for some real talk, real laughs, and a whole lot of interruptions.
S2 Ep15: Why won't she stop buying these things? Pet Peeves & Hot Takes!
Apr 15, 2025
Show notes
What's a "Hot Take" anyway? Sheena tries to make sense of it all and promptly loses control of the conversation (what's new?)! Buckle up as opinions fly faster than facts, no one knows what the truth even is anymore, and TRID suffers from a hilarious case of verbal diarrhea. Don't worry— we snuck in a few nuggets of wisdom within the chaos!
S2 Ep14: When Mom is Away...and Dad is in Charge
Apr 08, 2025
Show notes
This week on Sheena Interrupted, we’re flipping the script—literally. While I was traveling for work, TRID held it down at home with the kids... and I came back to some very surprising discoveries. I never knew he made the bed when I’m gone, or that he survived on a diet of water and ice! Join us as we talk parenting solo, unexpected routines, and what really goes down when mom’s away. Spoiler: it’s not all chaos (but it’s close).

This is what happens when TRID takes medication! In this weeks episode of Sheena Interrupted, we are coming to you from our living room couch (where TRID has been parked for days) as he recovers from surgery. Join us as we chat about his surgery & a whole lotta nonsense. Let's just say anesthesia unlocked a whole new level of TRID, but as they say...the show must go on!
S2 Ep12: The L Word: We Mean Luck, Obviously
Mar 25, 2025
Show notes
No, not that L word—we mean luck. The thing people credit when they don’t know how to explain their success—or their failures. In this episode, we’re breaking down those weird twists of fate, the moments that feel too good to be random and those wild moments when everything just works out (kind of).

Show notes
Last month, I lost my dad, and the grief hit me in a way I never could have anticipated. In this episode, I’m opening up about what this experience has taught me—the unexpected lessons, the moments of clarity, and the ways I’m learning to carry his love forward. If you’re navigating your own grief, I hope this serves as a reminder that you are not alone. Grief is complicated, but within it, there can also be moments of connection, healing, and even unexpected beauty. Take a deep breath, join me in this conversation, and let’s walk through this together. 💙 -TRID
