Married A.F. | Real Talk On Relationships
Married A.F. is the candid, laugh-out-loud podcast about what really goes on after “I do.” Equal parts heartfelt and hilarious, this show explores the highs, lows, and everyday quirks of married life – with nothing off-limits. Each week, Matt and Monica pull back the curtain on marriage, from navigating intimacy and money squabbles to juggling careers, kids, and in-laws. With their engaging blend of personal stories and expert insights, they tackle questions many couples are afraid to ask (yes, even that one) with refreshing honesty. One minute you’ll be wiping away tears of laughter, and the next you might be nodding along in understanding at a truly raw and honest confession.
Whether you’re newly wed, happily ever after, or wondering what you signed up for, Married A.F. offers you a front-row seat to the kind of unfiltered conversations usually reserved for close friends. Matt and Monica share hard-earned lessons to unpack topics like keeping the romance alive, communicating through conflict, and growing together (instead of apart). The tone is always supportive and real. You’ll feel like you’re sitting around the kitchen table with friends who tell it like it is and genuinely want to see your marriage thrive.
Clear-eyed about the challenges but celebratory of the joys, Married A.F. is the ultimate marriage companion podcast that will leave you feeling entertained, understood, and inspired to make your relationship stronger than ever. If you believe marriage can be messy and magnificent, this is the podcast for you.
Tune in, and join a community of listeners who know that staying married is an adventure – one that’s easier (and a lot more fun) when you have a great conversation partner along for the ride.
