Chris and Lisa, with the words We're making it up as we go

A marriage and parenting podcast, without the filtered version

We are Winging It

Chris and Lisa have been together for twenty years, married for fifteen, and are still making most of it up as they go.

Three children. Two dogs. One microphone each. Expect honest conversations, ridiculous disagreements, parenting confessions, listener dilemmas and the occasional moment of accidental wisdom.

Chris and Lisa together
Still together. Mostly by choice.

Not famous. Not rich. Quite tired.

Most couple podcasts seem to be hosted by celebrities with a home gym, a nanny and a kitchen island larger than our first flat.

This is not one of those podcasts.

We are a normal married couple trying to juggle family, work, money, plans, forgotten plans, and all the small things that somehow become very large arguments after 9pm.

Nobody has life completely figured out. Some people are simply better at lighting it.

Winging It is for anyone who has laughed through the stress, argued over something they can no longer remember, or quietly suspected that every other adult is improvising too.

What happens on the show?

01 / Real life

The weekly catch-up

Family, work, marriage, money, children, dogs and whatever has gone wrong since the last recording.

02 / Your dilemmas

What would you do?

Listener emails, relationship disputes, parenting problems and stories where everybody is at least slightly in the wrong.

03 / Low stakes chaos

Games and nonsense

Questions, confessions, dad jokes, petty grievances and competitive segments that neither of us will take sensibly.
