Super Familiar with The Wilsons
Marriage 2.0 with kids…and all the side quests!
Super Familiar with the Wilsons is a weekly comedy podcast about second marriage blended family life, and the beautiful chaos of parenting, aging, and figuring it all out (again). Hosted by Amanda and Josh, partners in life, love, and side quests, each episode dives into real-life stories, quirky observations, listener emails, and spontaneous tangents that somehow always circle back to relationships, resilience, and the absurdity of modern life.
Whether you’re navigating your own second act, raising kids who don’t want your help, or just wondering why birds seem to aim for your head, you’ll find humor, honesty, and heart here. Expect: offbeat storytelling, second-marriage dynamics, parenting fails, philosophical detours, and new friends you didn’t know you needed.
Familiar Wilsons Media produces content to bring people together. We are curious, hopeful, and try not to take ourselves too seriously...admittedly, with varying degrees of success.

Super Familiar with The Wilsons
The Familiar Chaos of Football Season
Josh napalms his throat with Fire Hot Fritos and then explains how he let AI draft his fantasy team… to an F. Amanda declares it the Season of All The Germs and the Microsoft Planner of Doom (167 “due today” tasks!), while the Wilsons unpack kid boredom, screen-time rage-quits, and transitions that need a landing strip. Then it’s Gainesville game-day anthropological fieldwork: “Team Mario Brothers,” vanished shorts, white cowboy boots, and bleachers hot enough to sear a memoir. Recommendations include Halloween book-nook kits and the cinematic perfection of Paddington 2. Plus: shout-outs to Chicken Tom, Refined Gay Jeff, and the end-credits football roster you didn’t know you needed.
Talking points
- AI-drafted fantasy team: how to earn an F without trying
- Household plague, deadlines, and why 95 overdue tasks is progress
- Kid boredom vs. screens: dopamine, coding, and the art of stopping
- Midtown safari: Mario mustaches, micro-shorts, and molten bleachers
- Recs: Michael’s book-nook kits & Paddington 2 (Wes-ish wonder)
- End-credits football thank-yous to the Super Familiar fam.

Familiar Wilson's Media Relationships are the story. You are made of meat, my friend, all the way down. The following podcast uses words like and and also If you're not into any of that shit, then now's your chance. Three, two, one run. I'm super familiar with you, Wilson, Get it.
Speaker 2:Welcome to Super Familiar with the Wilsons. I'm Amanda.
Speaker 1:And I'm Josh and Amanda. I just ate fire hot Fritos.
Speaker 2:Why Right before podcasting? Why?
Speaker 1:Because it's like one of those things where I can't just do the thing I want to do I got to make it fancy like Evel Knievel, okay and Because it's like one of those things where I can't just do the thing.
Speaker 2:I want to do. I got to make it fancy like Evel Knievel, okay.
Speaker 1:And so it's not that I can just cross the street. I got to jump it, and so, in this case, I got a podcast when my throat and my larynx are burning.
Speaker 2:You don't even like the hot fire, cheetos I know, that's the mystery here. I don't know why I've done this. Winthrop requested them for his lunch and I don't know why, because I don't think he eats them. So all I can think of is it's like some sort of cultural cachet in the elementary school cafeteria.
Speaker 1:What if he like, uses them as like a weapon for bullies, like he grinds them up and throws the powder in their faces?
Speaker 2:Well, we've not heard yet from administration, so I'm not sure that's a thing.
Speaker 1:Because he is the ninja of third grade.
Speaker 2:I mean, he gets away with some stuff here that I'm like I didn't know you did that, so maybe it is football season. It is.
Speaker 1:And I'm very, very intrigued by fantasy football this year because I did something I've never done before.
Speaker 2:Do tell.
Speaker 1:I am in a fantasy football league.
Speaker 2:If you've been listening for any amount of of time.
Speaker 1:You know that I do this every year with some friends across the sea and every year I'm like I'm american, I know more about football, you don't. We have proven that I know significantly less about football than my counterparts over there, but I think they're really what it is is. I don't have the patience to sit through all of these rounds of fantasy drafting right. It just gets really frustrating for me and I can't keep track of who's still on the board and then you only have one minute to pick and I get stressed and I just don't like it. I just don't like it. I wish what we could do is we could keep the same team every year and then, like, make trades, like, have it be yeah, like, like real football, like real football, instead of having to pick a whole ass new team every year.
Speaker 1:So I've tried various strategies throughout the years, including one year drafting four quarterbacks who do you have to give up to have four quarterbacks? That didn't work out so well last year and so this year I'm like fine, good, none of this crazy stuff. I'm gonna rely totally on on chat, gpt to make all of my picks.
Speaker 2:So how did you? Did you just give it like hey, pick my things. Or did you give it like the fantasy football drafting thing specifically for your team? Well, no, like your network.
Speaker 1:No, no, no. I said I'm drafting, you know, give me the best possible strategy and the best possible team, and so what I did is, every round, I would type in who's off the board like who got? Picked and then it would just instruct me who to pick, and I did. I'm like great, it's got all of the stats. It knows exactly what it's talking about. At the end of the draft, my draft grade, as determined by the way by, I guess the AI somewhere else was F A stench of cow.
Speaker 1:manure hovers over this performance. I am projected to win no games this year ChatGPT screwed you. Boy did it ever and again. This is why I'm not worried about Skynet, because ChatGPT, in this case, was outsmarted by both Belson brothers.
Speaker 2:That's rude. Gavin Belson's talking some crap to you on our WhatsApp chat too, friend.
Speaker 1:Is he? Well, all I did was this morning because I like to talk shit, even when I do it undeservedly yeah no, you have no right, and so I'm playing Gavin's team this week and I messaged him this morning and said okay, how much am I gonna win by this week? And, by the way, I'm at a 70% chance of losing this game, which is like saying it's summer in Florida, it might rain.
Speaker 1:No it's definitely gonna rain, I'm definitely gonna lose, and so of course I talk shit to the Belsons and they're polite about it, but mostly they probably just ignore it. But what has Gavin said? If you can just read the thread, because I've not opened- it.
Speaker 2:You opened up by saying by how much do we think I will beat Gavin in fantasy football this week? And he said who knows? You're only currently predicted to lose by 20. You said predictions are shit and he said so is your team.
Speaker 1:Oh wow, you know it's good that I, for that little moment, I give Gavin a feeling of efficacy.
Speaker 2:Gavin's usually the nice one and that was pretty harsh and I'm impressed by it. Good job, gavin.
Speaker 1:I think, after all these years, the honeymoon's finally over.
Speaker 2:Do you know that it's been like four years since we've been friends with him?
Speaker 1:Yeah, in COVID years it feels like 10. I know. So anyway, we did not record last week because we were both sick. The whole family, everyone's sick, right? I wasn't sick.
Speaker 2:Last weekend I was sick of all you people being sick, but now I'm sick. I woke up with a damn cough this morning, like I woke up coughing. I didn't wake up and then cough. I was coughing and woke up while I was doing it.
Speaker 1:That's super annoying, yeah, and I feel like the world is sick right now and the world is getting sick and the world is being sick and I just don't like it. I don't understand it. This is just the world in which we live. Maybe this is just indicative of the times in which we live.
Speaker 2:I don't know that it's the time in which we live, other than it is that time of year where all of the people have gone back to school, so they're home during the summer, and we've got a kid who goes to elementary school, where none of those jokers cover their mouth when they sneeze and all that stuff.
Speaker 1:Oh no, I'm quite certain that coughing into each other's mouth is like an elective, and that's just the thing that they do. They just go around like plants pollinating each other, or whatever. They're coughing into each other's mouth.
Speaker 2:And then we've got Muffy, who's moved into a dorm with, you know, on a sharing, a shared bathroom, shared showers, shared kitchen, with all of these people. Who knows what their little brothers and sisters are coughing into. So then we've just got like this petri dish of children, both 18 year old ones, in eight year old ones, where they're all just sharing all the germs. So Muffy got really sick, winthrop got really sick. I've been home with Winthrop the past, uh, the last two days. You thankfully came and saved my sanity halfway through the day on Friday, but you've been sick for about five weeks. You're finally getting rid of the cough and I have managed to stay. I've been every once in a while I'm like I don't feel great, but I've managed to pop out of it. But it has come for me.
Speaker 1:Well, we got to take care of mama, so that's what we'll do.
Speaker 2:Well, it's what stinks, because I've used my sick days to be home with the sick child Like now I. Are you out of sick days? No, I'm not out of sick days. I could take like six months of sick days, but meaning I have deadlines. You know my work and Microsoft Planner is a giant pain. I don't like it, but every Friday it sends me an email to tell me how many tasks that I have due that day. Hate it because it's the worst thing to wake up to. So when I woke up Friday morning and I checked my email, it said you have 135 tasks due today.
Speaker 1:I thought it was 167.
Speaker 2:Maybe it was 167. So I have 167, whatever. I screenshot it and send it to you, whatever it was. Now I got a wrap-up email going into Monday today from Microsoft Planner and now I have 95 tasks due. So I managed to blow through quite a bit of them on Friday because you came home and I just put my head down and just did all that stuff I needed to do. But I'm not looking forward to the 95 overdue tasks that I have tomorrow, because then I still have tasks that are due at the end of the week. So while I do have all the sick time, I can't do it. I can't, you can't use it.
Speaker 1:Well, it's interesting because you have 99 things due, but then stuff's gonna get added to you this week, no doubt.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:It's the whole thing why I don't even worry about my emails anymore and how many emails I have unopened.
Speaker 2:You know that that stresses me the mess out when I see your red notifications.
Speaker 1:Of course I have several email accounts. I have my work email, I've got like my art email, I've got super familiar you know this email and then other podcasts that we've had. I've had emails I should probably consolidate into just Josh at joshcom or whatever. But you want to guess how many emails, like a realistic number of how many emails unopened, you think?
Speaker 2:I have 2,147.
Speaker 1:4,346.
Speaker 2:I can't.
Speaker 1:Oh, no wait, 47. I can't One just came through I can't.
Speaker 2:Do you want to know how many I have open? Go ahead Six. I mean unopened Six, because I can't stand. This must be my OCD. We've been talking about my OCD tendencies. That must be my OCD. But Muffy doesn't care either. She's got all the right notifications for voicemails, texts unopened and emails. I don't know how you guys function like that.
Speaker 1:We live in a world in which we do not know any given day what laws are going to be struck down, what country we're at war with, how many thousands upon billions of added dollars in our you know what we have to spend on our budget because of tariffs.
Speaker 2:Listen emails smallest thing ever.
Speaker 1:And with all of this stuff happening in our world, our lovely eight-year-old son still has the gall to say many times a day I'm bored well, I mean he will read.
Speaker 2:Like if you put him in the car with a book or you have a book at school, he'll read. But at home, unless it's bedtime, he don't want to read. So he needs you to constantly be stimulating for him and I can't. I don't have the energy anymore.
Speaker 1:I don't remember being this like I don't know. I don't want to say needy, because that's that feels pejorative, but like I spent a lot of time in my life alone, only child, and all this, and that to a single parent, I had to amuse myself, right.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And so I would have books, I would play with the little star Wars things, which, by the way, playing little star Wars figurines and all the chips and all this and that by yourself, it turns out to be very depressing. But anyway, the point is is that I had to learn to amuse myself.
Speaker 2:I've had to play the Barbies by myself because, while I am not an only child, I am significantly younger than the rest of my siblings. The next older sibling was 14. And so nobody was playing Barbies with me. So I had I mean, I had to figure out how to entertain myself too, and maybe it's because we didn't have screens like they have screens. Well, we had, like Saturday morning cartoons, but then then we had to figure out what to do. Now it's constant, and then when we tell him screen time is over, it's like we've cut off his lifeline to whatever it is he needs to continue to survive.
Speaker 1:I wonder if our kids are going to be as creative as generations before them.
Speaker 2:Our older kids are really creative, yeah, so maybe Okay, but see, Winthrop.
Speaker 1:I think, though, now it's like he's in the time where so much is generated for you, there's so much access to stimuli. I mean, I'm not even talking about AI, which, like, make me a photograph of.
Speaker 2:Blippi.
Speaker 1:I can't stand that on a pogo stick and all these things.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I can't stand that. Don't use AI to generate images. Don't do it. It's bad for the environment and it's bad for your brain. Go ahead.
Speaker 1:No, but this is my question. It's just a question to you Do you think that our kids are going to have the internal resources to still be able to create original works of creation?
Speaker 2:I do, because Daniel does make films and things like that and he doesn't AI generate that. Andrew doesn't AI generate the music that he creates, right, and now he's taking visual art classes. Muffy is a visual art, you know. She's an art history major. She is anti-AI, like just very anti-AI. I don't have to worry about her. I will say with Winthrop that he doesn't know AI yet. But the thing with him and I know it bugs you because you'd rather him watch TV than be on his tablet but the thing I like about what he's doing on his tablet is he is creating levels in this game that he plays, so he's coding, like he's learning how to code from Andrew. He's coding, he's building levels, he is testing them, and so he's at least doing some sort of engagement with it and not passively receiving the information like when he watches tv. The reason I think that you don't like it is because it's really hard for him to disengage from it when it's time to disengage no, he's like you won't like me when I'm angry.
Speaker 1:And then he hulks out yeah, yeah which I, I feel like, is. It's one of those things with the deleterious effects of the screen, then the blue light light and tapping straight into his dopamine center so that it becomes more difficult for him to get any sort of hits off of anything else but a screen.
Speaker 2:I think that part of because he doesn't freak out like that when we turn the TV off right, still a blue light, still a screen, passive consumption. I think what's going on with him is and we know this from all of our other kids is that transitions are very, very difficult and so even when he has okay, you got to set a timer, you got 30 minutes if he hasn't completed whatever task it is, then he has a very hard time just going. Okay, I can do this later. Like he can't see that if I stop now, I'm going to be able to come back to it later. So there are some like active parenting we have to do around that and some understanding that just stopping right in the middle.
Speaker 2:If you were creating a song and I came to you and said, okay, we got to do this, you got to stop right now, that would also be hard, for you'd say, let me just like, let me wrap this up, or let me get to a point where I can wrap it up. So I think we have to do some some give and take with him on. Yes, your timer went off, what is it that you're doing right now? Then you, you know, here's the thing that you have to get to to be able to complete it and move along yeah, give me a break, kid, I'm gonna take that screen from you, right?
Speaker 1:Oh? Parenting advice from the Wilsons Woo.
Speaker 2:From one Wilson. Don't take the other one's advice All right, but let's get back to football.
Speaker 2:And now it's time for Sports Talk with Amanda. So it's football season, right, but it's also the second week of football here in this big university town in which we have a football team that, historically, has done really, really well. And then it wasn't doing well, and then they did. The thing that always annoys me is that they were ranked preseason. I hate that. I hate preseason rankings. I don't like it Because everybody's like, oh look, I'm ranked this, and then they go to the first week and they lose, because everybody's like, oh look, I'm ranked this, and then they go to the first week and they lose. So I mean we won our first week like hands down, because we were playing like a paycheck team, like they just show up.
Speaker 2:Muffy was saying she felt really bad for them. I said, listen, they knew what they were getting into when they came here. And they came here because this is the game that's going to carry them throughout the season as far as the money that they're going to make on ticket sales and stuff. Don't feel bad for them, they knew. Then yesterday we were all like and then they lost by one point to my undergrad alma mater. So, whatever, it's my graduate alma mater and my current employer lost to my undergrad alma mater. I don't really care either way.
Speaker 1:Why are you not naming these teams?
Speaker 2:Okay, the University of Florida lost to the university of south florida. Go bulls, I am also a go gator, but whatever I won, it doesn't matter. My team won because I they're both my teams, but you and I decided to do some sightseeing yesterday before the game yeah, yeah, we went downtown.
Speaker 1:actually, we went downtown because we were looking for DJ's Cast Iron Burgers, which is usually a food truck that's set up closer to our part of town, but, game day, I've come to find out they move across town.
Speaker 2:Right across the stadium.
Speaker 1:In the middle of the action which good on them, of course they should and they just came out with a Lagway burger, which DJ Lagway is the quarterback of the Gators, and so they so they, I guess teamed up with him to make this burger, which I've not had yet because it has peppers on candied jalapenos.
Speaker 1:Yeah I'm not. I'm not dogging it, I'm just. It doesn't feel like a thing for me, although I freaking love dj's regular burgers. So we went downtown looking for these things, and downtown close to game time is a lot of fun. I say downtown.
Speaker 2:Midtown.
Speaker 1:Midtown, which is near the university, is a lot of fun. It's just great people watching. Apparently, a thing now amongst college students is mustaches.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, they all look like they're trying to be.
Speaker 1:What did you call them? Team Umario Brothers? Yeah, because they wear these onesies that are University of Florida colored onesies, without a shirt underneath, and so they're just wandering around in these hats and I know that they're going for that look. They have to be because they look like Mario Brothers, but it was just a blast. I mean, it was hotter than shit, right, but it was a blast just to people watch, which is one of the Wilson's favorite spectator sports.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, so Muffy was going to go to her first tailgate. She has yet to be to a game, which is fine, because it is One thing that people say the swap it literally is because not a lot of people know, or if you're not from here, you don't know that the football field is below ground level. It's built like this bowl in which no air is circulating at field level right.
Speaker 1:They shouldn't call it a bowl, you know, because it gets so freaking hot. It is a football walk.
Speaker 2:It is a walk. It's a hot pot. It's a walk, yeah. So I mean, once it turns lovely outside like November, go to a game. It's beautiful. It is too hot right now. So we dropped Muffy off. She was going to go to her first tailgate. We dropped her off at the dorm. We dropped Winthrop off at a play date and you and I, well, we went looking for DJs. Djs wasn't there. We looked it up. I said, okay, we could do this. So we went and parked at my office which is downtown, not Midtown and we walked up and got the thing and you bought a shirt and we sat and watched and then we went back. I was fine until right when I wasn't, and then I got really overheated. But the people watching is so good, it's so good.
Speaker 2:but I have a question go ahead do these women's mamas know that the bottom of their shorts are missing?
Speaker 1:okay, you say women's.
Speaker 2:We're talking about college, do these college girls mamas know that the bottom of their shorts are missing. And I am not even body shaming them or whatever Do you? You are super comfortable with yourself. These are tiny little things that aren't even shorts. What I am concerned about Let me tell you.
Speaker 1:So we were driving through the campus and kids were walking to the stadium and at one point I'm like, oh, that's all of her underwear. Yes, because it's not just cut off jean shorts.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:It was also skirts, although I don't know that you can call them skirts as much as just large fabric belts.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:Because you were definitely seeing, and I was really I just did not want to look. I mean, first of all, these are kids, right, right, these are. Yes, that could be my only guess, because they are sitting on metal bleachers. That's what I was going to say.
Speaker 2:That is my concern about this, Not necessarily that your bottom's hanging out, but that you are going to go and it is 95 degrees outside. Student bleachers are in and they're bleachers, they're not. Seats are in the sun. There is no way you are sitting down.
Speaker 1:And if you do, you're going to come back with lines on your buns is what I'm saying you remember those metal slides that we played on in playgrounds in the 80s.
Speaker 2:That would get so hot like you would actually burn yourself. That's what they're sitting on.
Speaker 1:But then I said this to muffie and she said mom, they don't go to the game, they just go to the frat houses, the tailgate oh, very interesting because I will say this that that that makes me feel better about going to a game, because I absolutely would not want to sit on those bleachers after those people have sat in the so hot.
Speaker 2:Everything's been sterilized. The other thing that is a trend now, and it just makes my feet sweat, are these white cowboy boots. So they're all wearing the tiny shorts or skirts. Some of them have on bathing suit tops, just triangle bathing suit tops. Most of them have on like a tank top of some sort or crop top, and then they're wearing these tall white cowboy boots. You know that their feet. I pray to God they have tiny socks on in there because the amount of sweat and smell that has to be coming from these, it's awful.
Speaker 1:Well, that's probably why they call the stadium the swamp Just the stink coming off of these things, and I imagine that if I got close enough to one of them to hear them walk that it would be sloshing okay, so gross so gross, but it's just all of it, like the boys in their striped uh overalls with their mario mustache and and it's just all of it is so.
Speaker 2:It's so not what. I I went to the University of Florida for undergrad. I had football tickets in 1994 and I was thinking about this. I'm like, what did I wear? I wore probably khaki shorts from Old Navy and I I wore like a gator t-shirt like this. This wasn't a thing the like shrinking of the clothing. And it's amazing because, you know, I took buffy yesterday into alumni hall which is a fan store here where you can because she didn't have anything gator branded. The only thing she had gator branded was a sweatshirt. You're not wearing that tomorrow, I mean yesterday. So I took her in and she wanted a tank top and they had these cute little tank tops 75. It was insanity.
Speaker 1:Well, I bought a polo yesterday. I think it was like last year or the year before, I guess their design or whatever. But really it was just an orange polo with the word Gators on it. Very nice for a relatively little amount of money.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, you did really well with that. But then she looked at me and she said Mom, can we go to Target and I'll buy a white tank top? Do you have orange and blue ribbon? I did so. We bought her a $5 tank top. She got some orange and blue ribbon tied, little ribbons on the straps done. Thankfully she didn't feel like she needed to spend a lot of money on this. But my point is the tiny little clothes are very expensive, so it's not based on the amount of yardage of fabric that you need.
Speaker 1:Yeah, see, I don't understand that, though that's definitely a thing that like with women's clothing pink tax what the pink tax.
Speaker 2:It's a thing, it's a, it's a term. For you know, like razors are more expensive for women than they are for men, because pink tax not really a tax, but it's like it is inflated retail value based on it being directed toward women.
Speaker 1:Yep, what a luxury you have. I'm so jealous. Love it.
Speaker 2:And yesterday you realized that it's got to be miserable to wear a bra. That is a thing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I didn't understand what was happening on the top half of these girls. Actually the bottom half got it sorted, top half. There's this one thing that they do where they wear a top bra, where you know how usually you have a strap over each shoulder. Oh yeah, there's a thing now where I saw several of them where they have two straps coming off of the left and right side, but they go towards one shoulder.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's like an asymmetrical thing.
Speaker 1:But it looks like they're strapped into it, guess now than like a. A college girl walking towards a, a game, right the stadium, in 100 degree weather, wearing shorts that are way too short, cowboy boots and, like every five seconds, messing with their top yes it's falling down or things are coming out, or they want things to come out, or whatever it's like. I don't understand it. What torture is that?
Speaker 2:I, I don't know, but it's I, I was wearing a bra and it um, it is just miserable. It's, it's, it's just too damn hot, it's just too damn hot okay, very good, this has been sports with amanda.
Speaker 1:No one likes to be told what to do. All right now is the time in the program where we tell you what to do, amanda. What should we do?
Speaker 2:okay, if you like to craft which I do and you love the spooky season, which I do, if you have a michael's near, which I do you should go and get their craft sets where you can build like they have those book nook kits that you build the thing and it sits between your books on the bookshelf. They have a ton of those for Halloween and Muffin have bought some and they're like 30% off right now and it's just a really fun way to spend an afternoon. Let you a few falls into candles, turn the air down if you live in Florida, so you can pretend like it's fall outside put on some football or some fall music and just have a nice crafting afternoon.
Speaker 1:Very good. My recommendation is simple Go see Paddington 2.
Speaker 2:Oh, not go see it, go to your TV and see Paddington T.
Speaker 1:That is probably the best movie I've seen this year and we saw the first one and we loved it. But this one was extra delightful because it almost feels like it was directed by Wes Anderson. It had a couple of musical acts, it had just the art direction in it. I can't explain it any more than being than saying to you that it's Wes Anderson like.
Speaker 2:It was very charming.
Speaker 1:It was so good, such a great message. And how can you not love Paddington? And, by the way, paddington an immigrant.
Speaker 2:Just leaving that right there. So you're saying probably the best movie you saw this year and you saw Superman and you really loved Superman.
Speaker 1:Oh my gosh, this is so much better than Superman. Superman was good, but this is the best movie of the year, even though it came out a while ago.
Speaker 2:Yeah, best movie of Josh's year.
Speaker 1:There you go. All right, amanda, that's all there is. There is no more Ding ding. What do you think about that whole mess?
Speaker 2:I just love it. Thank you so much.
Speaker 1:A couple of updates on some of our friends.
Speaker 2:I'm still talking about what I loved and you cut me off. You interrupted me, don't look at me.
