This week's episode
Hear the argument.
Then settle it.
We're leaving for Universal Studios today, and the conversation naturally turned into what we're most excited about — Halloween Horror Nights. We cover our favorite foods around the park and at Universal's CityWalk, why Becca's dragging me to Disney even though I don't like it, and our absolute love for the Hard Rock Hotel — where we stay every time and why it's worth it.
Message in a bottle
Tell us where
we went wrong.
Voting is the verdict. This is the reasoning. Pitch us a topic, take a side, or tell Becka she's wrong — someone has to.

Jason. Sweetheart. My son is 34 and he still gets a card with a twenty in it, and he still calls me to say thank you. That twenty is not about the twenty.

Finally someone said it. I have four of them and it's $80 a year in cash to people with better cars than mine. Becka, be serious.

Topic for you two: whose family gets Thanksgiving when both sides "always host." Been divorced nine years and it's still a negotiation. You'd be at each other for an hour.

Marianne T. Voted Starboard Yesterday
Listened to this one twice in the Target parking lot. My husband is Jason and I am absolutely Becka and I'm not sure how I feel about being seen like this.

Who's on board
Two people,
one boat, and a lot of opinions.
We're Jason and Becka Duval. Eighteen years married, six grown kids between two previous marriages, and a spare room in New Hampshire that we filled with anchors and a neon sign.
Every Tuesday we sit in those two chairs and argue about something real — money, kids, in-laws, the thermostat — and try to find common ground before the recording stops. Sometimes we get there. Usually we don't.
That's where you come in. You're not the audience. You're the tiebreaker.

My husband and I fight about this every week
"We put it on during the drive home from daycare pickup and by the driveway we've picked a side. Weirdly the best marriage counseling we never paid for."
-
Finally, a couple that argues productively
"Every other relationship podcast is either too therapy-speak or too petty. This one somehow lands on funny AND fair."
-
Team Starboard forever
"Jason is wrong about the thermostat and I will die on this hill alongside Becka. Great show, questionable husband."
