I believe episode 100 should be the debut of a new theme song🎉 this time with Erik singing too!
This girl got the correct idea
I second that!!
BOOSTING!! they haveee to do this omg
Omg i completely agree!!!
Yes!!!!
LMAO Colleen saying mirror like "Meer" is so funny. I say mirror like Erik
Me too lol. I pronounce the whole word
Same. 💗
Came here for this comment!! I also say it like Erik
Me too but it could be because my mother tongue is french ;^^ It's one of those words I dread to pronounce though 🥲
As someone who grew up in a house with carpeted stairs, I have to vouch for their amazingness (as a kid anyway). I spent countless hours hanging out on those stairs, reading, playing, cleaning, ofc. But they were sincerely my fav hangout spot in the whole house, hard stairs would have not provided me with these glorious memories 🙏
My aunt had carpet all over her BATHROOM. When I was a kid I thought it was the best thing ever (imagine the sweet sensation, getting out of the bathtub, running your naked toes on the carpet), but when I grew up, my adult mind wondered how much mold there was underneath 😂 I would never put carpet on any floor in my house, especially with a dog and kids, but I kinda miss that trend at the same time 🥲
The 100th episode should have Miranda and Patrick come in 😂❤️
it’s sad, im pretty sure they can’t have patrick in youtube videos because netflix owns the character 🥲
@@milouiscool NOOOOO
I wonder if Erik's ever acted like Patrick in front of the kids lol.
@@milouiscool why do they own Patrick when she wrote it? They don’t own Miranda?
@@fluteloops22 no they dont own miranda but she said in a previous video that they do own the other characters in the show. i guess that, even though she wrote it herself, she had to sign some rights away for netflix to call it an official netflix show and stream it on their platform… sucks though
For the 100th episode you should hire a hair stylist to come to your house and cut your hair. Then you guys should record an episode while they are cutting your hair.
Btw I commented this on the last episode but I’m not sure if they saw it
No good hairstylist will have an opening for less than a week in advance 😢
The part where Colleen is talking about comparing having a child to a pet made me think of when Erik tried to compare his wisdom teeth removal to her having a c-section. Both are in totally different ballparks. Love you guys so much 😊
i love Colleen’s reactions to Erik’s high school stories..
•gasp•
“a love triangle?”
Thumbs up if you think they should do episode 100 on a live stream!! 👏🏻
I would probably miss it tho
@@savannahsmith5401 I was thinking they do it live and still record/post it at the same time! Both 💖
Sadly the already posted it yesterday on Apple music and spotify but that would have been a fun idea
I love this idea and it’s not too late! Let’s hear it for Podcast 101! 🎉
Km😅moo
The mirror conversation is 2023s version of them debating how to pronounce pink 🤣🤣
Hi Colleen! Ive watched you since I was 11 years old and I’m 22 now! I love your vlogs and listen to RELAX all the time! I got tickets to your show in Jacksonville, and I also just had my first son who is a NICU baby, I hope to make it to your show! ❤️ I can’t tell you how thankful I am to have watched your NICU vlogs and listened to those episodes of relax, hearing your experience of being a NICU parent has helped tremendously❤
Awe congrats sweety on your little miracle. I wish I had Colleen’s clogs wen my little one was in nicu 7 years ago. To hear her experience would have helped me so much. Also wish I could go to the show. Eat me but I’m not working so can not spend any money to go. So say hello for me:) j/k have so much fun there. U deserve a night to relax with Colleen. After having a human being. Enjoy every moment good and bad. They grow so so fast
I love how Eric's mannequin and Colleen's Miranda doll represents their individual personalities so perfectly. 😅
It frustrates me too, Colleen! 😂 I don’t even have children and it makes my skin crawl when people make the comparison of animals to people.
I can’t believe it’s almost episode 100! I’ve spent 99+ hours watching this now lol BEST podcast in the world! Also, HAPPY 2023!!
Having a dog is still hard. You might not birth it, but when their puppies they still have to be trained. They wake up at night, you have to let them out. But if you don't have a yard, you have to take them out for walks. They chew things, when their teeth are growing. They get sick, they have to get their shots. They have to be socialized. They get their period. They can't be alone for long, some are scared for fireworks. Some are anxious. It's hard in it's own way.
True. Some differences to consider might be: do you put your own physical needs aside to meet your dogs needs? Does your attention to tasks get divided constantly to respond to your dogs behavior/ safety? Do you hold your dog when trying to use the toilet or cook food single handedly? Do you hold your dog for them to fall asleep multiple times a day & night? Does your dog have multiple meltdowns (sometimes publicly) you have to find compromises with them for while keeping yourself calm? Does your dogs behavior over the course of decades trigger parts of yourself that need healing? Can you leave your dog home alone while you go out? Does your dog know how to feed itself without needing to be watched for choking & cleaned every time? Do you have to talk to your dog as they talk to you constantly? Do you have to keep your dog educated legally? Dogs (& other animals in captivity) are definitely their own level of hard work (I've had 5 dogs from puppyhood) but the demands to your personal freedom (not to mention recovering from childbirth & navigating keeping another being alive from the food your body makes) comparatively when raising young humans are unparalleled.
Build the cats a Catio - enclosed cat run
Raising a child to be a loving, kind, responsible adult is just not the same as raising a puppy.
honestly people with children are always the center of attention. i’m all for dog parents getting some shine lmao
The way the chairs are sat, Colleen looks so tiny compared to Erik and it keeps making me laugh lol love y’all!
I’m team no-carpet stairs! The only stairs I’ve ever fallen down had carpet on them, even the really thin kind! Carpet is soooo slippery.
I had this experience too! At my grandparents’ house, I slipped on the top step (of carpeted stairs) and tumbled all the way down and landed on my head. It was brutal!
Same!! I am a complete clutz and have never fallen down my wood stairs, but when we had carpet on them I did as did my FIL.
Really?! I've fallen even on cement stairs. Maybe I'm clumsy, but I can say with a certainty that falling on carpeted stairs is a much better time than hard stairs 😅
Time for a new theme song?!🎶 I think everyone would miss the tune but maybe different words with Erik singing too 💕
They had a new one and Colleen said no!
Yeah it’s time for a new one with Erik
Having a tough day and this episode came at the perfect time! 💖
I am sorry you are having a tough day. I hope the rest of your week continues better.
@@morganfern29 Thank you so much!
Me screaming OMG ITS RAE DUNN to the section about Marshall’s & tjmaxx / homegoods😂
I’ve watched you for 10+ years! Love to watch your life unfold.
Can relate to the snippy doctor story - there was a point when I was younger where whenever it was super hot weather it would be difficult for me to breathe, so I went to the doctor and said “I seem to have difficulty breathing when it’s hot” and she goes “well it’s not hot now”
I literally had no words 😅
I love that Eric has become so at ease with the camera and being on Colleen's channels
Well almost 100 episodes…he very well better have improved. Lol.
The fainting is called a vasovagal response or vasovagal syncope, and it happens after the experience that causes nerves or an adrenaline rush. After the experience is over, your body relaxes and your blood pressure suddenly drops, causing the fainting spell.
Thankyou for that I didn’t know that,I guess a concern might be how to know if it is that or an allergy reaction
@@DanielleBlake600 It's a normal physiological reaction. A good way to mitigate ig is to lie down while feeling dizzy and get up slowly over the course of minutes and don't freak out about it. Drink some water.
clicked embarrassingly fast, cant wait to watch! happy new year!🎉
Absolutely any video I get caught up watching and their notification comes on I'm like and exit that and let's go Colleen
I'm with you with the carpet! I slipped and fell many times on my wood stairs so I got really pretty stair treads, fits my old house beautifully!
Im so sorry the doctor treated you that way, Colleen. Im a nurse, and I can say that the ones that are rude to patients are often rude to the nurses as well. There are so many wonderful doctors out there, but there are some that have a terrible bedside manner and can be very arrogant. It's happened to me as a patient as well, even recently. Im chronically ill and I had a doctor tell me I need to stop relying on other people to make me better after spending 10 min. In the room with me and had never seen me before. Im actually very ill, and my healthcare is important to my well-being.
Thank you for being a kind nurse :)
I absolutely agree with you about the baby/dog comment. I would never compare my dog hardships to a moms struggles. But I do want to add that I have a dog with anxiety and some quirks that leads to nights without sleep. Sitting next to my dog because she won’t eat otherwise. She barks when she just wants eye contact. Of COURSE so not the same. And would never compare. But I do want the dog struggles to be acknowledged lol
Same, I have a dog with anxiety and aggressive issues (which is oddly directed to people he knows, since he's too shy with people outside the house to do anything to them) which has caused lots of trouble, but I wouldn't compare it to mom struggles. I would compare it to dog parent struggles lol.
Lol I love watching y'all ...I'm so glad y'all found each other in life honestly y'all were made for each other
Omg this might be my favorite one. So funny when Collen said she just went outside and hit pans together and went to bed after the new year even up to college age bahahaha that's hilarious. Her growing up years were so interesting. she has inspired me to homeschool my children in hopes they won't get into drinking to many adult beverages especially so young like my friends and I did so much dumb and dangerous things. Hope my homeschooled children will be as creative and talented and successful as Colleen ♡ that would be awesome.
A catio is a safe way kitties can be outside ♡
Bruno!!?!??? Wow how lucky Eric is!! Seeing that man when he was coming up! Amazing performer! I got the chills just hearing his name come out his mouth.
Colleen!! You need to make Erik a tinder account for the 100th episode! It's long overdue.
Carpet is just as slippery with socks on as any other surface. Grippy socks will make them not slip on hardwood. Also, baby gates should be put up at the top and bottom of stairs so the babies can’t go up or down them if they get out of your view. You can buy the kind that have doors so you don’t have to step over them. I also think carpeted stairs are much slipperier than hardwood stairs. I slip up and down carpeted stair all the time.
I’m from a carpeted home and I cannot fathom having cold, flat wood as a cushion for all my cheer stunts as a child
Totally agree with you about the dog vs child comparison. I was a dog mom first and he was SOOO much easier than my baby lol nothing can compare
I have a friend who once compared me having 3 kids to her having a cat. This friend is now pregnant and she's about to find out that a child is nothing like a cat 😂
Listening while on a walk with my baby.. walk passed someone when Eric said urination circle. I’m dead 😭😭😭
OMG YESSSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE VIDEO PODCAST FORMAT I LOVE THIS WAY BETTER THEHEHEHE !! THIS EPISODE MADE ME LAUGH YALL ARE THE BEST FOR PUTTING A SMILE ON OUR FACE EVEN IF ITS FOR AN HOUR
Brand new puppies require a lot of care, attention and energy! 💗🐶💗
I agree, but I've had puppies and kids, and taking care of puppies is no where near as difficult as taking care of human babies! There just not even comparable!
Having a puppy specifically felt like having a baby
i just got so excited 🥹
Oh I hate when people compare their pets to my child. I have two dogs who I love, and I’m sure I was guilty before I had my daughter, but my goodness. It’s not the same.
I also thought this about dog parents, but that was when I had family dogs. When I went out on my own and raised three dogs from birth, I found it to be 100% a different experience. It’s much different when you have a dog in a house with multiple people there to take care of them. I’ll relax now 😂😂
Yes especially raising them from a puppy, I do think people underestimate how hard it is. That being said I still don’t think it deserves to be seen as equal labour to taking care of a child.
Raised a puppy (big shepherd dog) and raised a baby. NO COMPARISON. No one is mentioning the hormones and physical agony you experience when your baby cries.
Colleen please stand up for yourself with Drs! Coming from someone that works healthcare and my whole family does too including my dad being a Dr. Sometimes they really need humbled! I primarily work with neurosurgeons and they are the worst but as long as you come at them with facts and with confidence in your voice I've discovered most of them respect that you are willing to correct them or atleast share your opinion.
Erik’s relax was so funny I have a peace sight statue from Marshall’s lmao
I agree pets are not equivalent to babies. I have done both. Dogs are much easier.
Cats are even easier in my opinion
Cats for me 🥲
Yay!! I’m excited 🎉 Sick and needed this podcast
As a dog owner who absolutely worships her dog. I TOTALLY agree that children and dogs are nowhere near the same thing.
i love you colleen but i don’t think it’s fair to assume every pet owners life is as easy as you and erik described. some animals are disabled and require an insane amount of care. i am not a mother and i will never know the hardships that go into the birthing process or raising a family until i get to that point, and i’m not saying the two are comparable, but to ignore the fact some animals are disabled and to assume pet parents don’t have hardships isn’t fair.
my dog recently went paralyzed and needed a $8,000 surgery and the past few months have been extremely hard. my dog cannot pee or poop without me having the literally squeeze it out of her. i changed her diapers and had to bathe her everytime she had an accident. my dog wouldn’t eat unless i hand fed her or drink unless i bring the water bowl to her. she was on crate rest crying all day and night for months. my dog is learning how to walk all over again and i celebrated little victories like her standing on her own for the first time, but it’s a long journey we will be on for the rest of her life. i’m fortunate enough that she’s a small dog and i can help her with ease, but some animals that become disabled are large and it’s very physically demanding for the owner. since the day she stopped walking i have had extreme anxiety, constantly checking the cameras i had pointed to her crate, worrying if she will ever walk or be independent again. i’ve had scares where i left work to check on her and my coworkers made rude comments and didn’t take me seriously when i know they would leave to do the same for their human children.
some people don’t care about animals enough to make these sacrifices or think pet owners are crazy for trying to continue to give their pet a quality life, but we don’t care and would rather continue life with our pet than see them suffer or give up on them. again, motherhood and being a pet parent are not comparable, but ignoring the hardships some pet owners go through is unfair in the argument you made and i am just trying to educate you and whoever reads this to give some perspective.
again, i love you colleen and i do not mean this is a rude way, i just want to give some perspective since the hardships of disabled pet owners aren’t seen or acknowledged enough.
I mean she was clear she wasn’t putting that down. Don’t compare a dog, disabled or not, to having a child. That’s it. Both are hard and have challenges and she didn’t discount that, but it’s not like having a human child.
Lol at "a storm is brewing."
I needed this today!!! Thank you Colleen and Erik!!!
Me over here drinking coffee out of my home goods coffee cup😊 no font 😂
In regards to the CARPET STAIRS! Backstory: I grew up in a home with carpeted stairs and we did slide down them and play on them and had so much fun. Never got hurt. I am now 28 years old and in my house with my husband we have wooden stairs with no carpet. On Christmas Eve I was wearing socks and walking down the stairs and I slipped and fell down so many stairs. I hit my back on the edge of one of the stairs and broke my toe as well. When I grabbed for the railing to stop my fall it came out of the wall and snapped in half. TRUE STORY!!! I vote keep the carpet 🤍
Both of you relax, and leave my mugs alone! 😂
No Colleen, you didn’t go to parties bc the Ballinger house was the party 🎊 🎈 🎉 😂
For the 100th episode they could just sing The Hug Soon and I’d be a happy camper ❤
Etch a Sketch is SUPER relaxing to play with.
My weekend was awful, thankful for this♥️
I love your podcast. It's the best I have watched by far. You two are so amazing.
FYI- cats will destroy the hardwood. We had old carpet ripped out and hardwood floors completely restored...cats instantly left little scratch marks everywhere from running around, not from trying to claw at it.
I love knowing Colleen so well that I can tell which sponsors she actually isn't a fan of
I think your cats would love a cat aviary/catio! They could experience the outside and you'd be sure they are safe at the same time 🤍
i think waiting until the kids are teens to switch up the carpet is your best bet. I have a big family and my parents waited until we were grown to get nice things because we would just ruin everything…
I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE SOFT PANTS
Found them! Vuori dream knit pants
@@angelaking7985 you’re amazing thank you
Happy New Year everyone! 🎊 🍾🥂🎉
Edit: I just finished the podcast and now feel bad that it’s over a week into the new year and I still wished everyone a Happy New Year…sorry Erik & Colleen…I will try to “relax”! 😊
Colleen, here in Europe, we pronounce mirror correctly. I'm always amused where Americans say meer.
I'm American and never heard anyone say meer.
Please change the intro song for the 100th episode!!! There was a really good suggestion in the comments of the last podcast video
I like that Erik has had multiple things that need to relax these past couple episodes
Erik trying to argue the hardwood isn't dangerous while also uttering the words "you can't run and do a sock slide on carpet" exacly why she wants to keep it lol
Please stop promoting Better Help! I’m a huge fan of the podcast, but please do some research on them before you keep promoting. 🙏🏼
I agree with you Colleen about Valentine Day. I all so decorated for Easter for the kids. They love it. 🐣🐥🐰🐰🐰
I always had indoor outdoor cats they will always come back for the food
I completely agree with you about people comparing raising dogs to raising children. Both are hard, and both are part of your family, but babies are incomparable to puppies. The serious life changes that come with a baby versus a dog are not comparable in my opinion. The only reason I don't mind the term fur-baby is if someone uses it as an endearing nickname to refer to the fact that they are part of your family, not to how difficult it is to raise them. I have never had a baby and I know it is unfair to compare them lmao, babies change your life completely.
Omg, people here in Europe absolutely give New Years Eve present under the Christmas tree😂
Where? I'm from Germany and never heard of it
Episode 100 dress as old people 😂😂 like in school. 😅
Home Goods and Marshalls are the best stores ever. Don’t come for them!😂
Omg I totally agree. I could tell that really grinded her gears. Erik is just boujee 😆
Doctors need to respect their patients. They are not better than anyone else. This is a real issue. All healthcare workers need to respect, listen, and empathize with their patients
I am training to be a doctor and I completely agree with you
My dad & stepmom decorate for everything even Valentines day, St. Patrick's day etc...
FOLEX!! This is the only carpet cleaner that has worked for me! It has gotten red wine out of my carpet several times!
I had hardwood stairs - and even with baby gates - both my children slipped on the hardwood and fell down the stairs. I ended up moving because I was so scared my kids would get hurt worse then they did. HIGHLY RECOMMEND keeping the carpet. Its MUCH safer because even if you fall its padded. I fell down those wood stairs SOOOO Many times - there was no way to stop- especially with socks on. I was so lucky I never broke anything. It was like a rocket ship of stairs and it was terrifying.
Hahaha I watched there podcast the other day when they were arguing about the time when Colleen can decorate now the first 2 minutes sounds the exact same ahahahah
colleen your face through this whole podcast u were struggling LMFAO
At my parents house they've gotten their carpet professionally cleaned so many times and it made a lot of stains so much worse! My dad's cousin who's a realtor said that that's so normal and annoying
I am wheeze laughing at the home goods convo! I’ve never related more 😂
yayyy!! i’m so early. love you guys
So early that you're first comment! Congrats!
A memory I have from being a young teen for new years is the skating rink. I can remember when I was 13 going on 14 and the skating rink had a millennium bash back when it was turning the year 2000. It was so neat and I felt so cool to be able to stay out until midnight at the skating rink. Man, I'm getting old 🤣 ETA; raise your hand if Erik's diss of all the cool things you can find in Marshall's, Home Goods, Ross, TJMaxx made you wanna blow a gasket 🙋🏼♀️Guess he's too good for a bargain. I saw Colleen cut her eyes to the camera and I know that was offending her as it did me! Nothing wrong with those stores at all. Hes just more boujee.
I don’t think he’s boujee he’s trying to point out the basic designs that are everywhere that college flocks to
I would love to be the person to write the captions during the mirror/meer conversation 😂
Colleen's relax literally speaks to me! I get so annoyed when people say they are "parents" when they have pets. Like, you don't get to celebrate mother and father's day, because you went to shelter and adopted an animal. Good for you for doing that, but it isn't the same as pushing a child out of your hoohaa.
Carpet stairs! They are such a comfort and make it feel more like a home than a hotel ❤️
the cats were probably just under stimulated being inside all day and trying to find ways to be stimulated. i used to live in an apartment and my dogs used to chew everything up until i moved somewhere with more space
I don’t understand why Colleen always needs Erik to say his full name 😂😬 he doesn’t seem to want to introduce himself like that…
Lol, while you’re telling someone to “relax,” you’re getting so worked up and the opposite of relaxed 😂
😂Happy New Year to you and your family ❣️🍾🥳🥂🎉🎂😂😂😂
Yeah 1st episode of 2023 number 99. She's the problem that's her! Lmfao 🤣
Did they stop doing phone calls and texts for their podcasts?
Home goods for the win!
IT IS SO FRUSTRATING WHEN “dog moms” say that they understand my literal BOSS is like that her dogs are more important then my child so when her dog has a vet appointment SHE HAS TO GO when my kid is in the hospital I have to find someone to take him?! Sorry my child is so much more than a dog love dogs but no not the same
Carpeted stairs not only are safer but they make the house feel cozier and look way more clean to me than hardwood. With hardwood you can see every hair or crumb on them lol. Team carpet for sure
