About this listen

 A perfectly imperfect podcast hosted by none other than the Joneses! Philip and Tasha, just trying to keep it together—raising kids, navigating life with Jesus, and occasionally spiraling into whatever hot topic is taking over the group chat.
Here, you’ll find a little bit of everything: parenting, politics, social media, LGBTQ+ life, and the ongoing journey of unlearning and relearning faith as we explore the world around us. We talk about real stuff—sometimes complicated, sometimes hilarious, always honest.
We bicker, we banter, and sometimes we even make a good point. It’s real talk with a side of sass, a few hot takes, and plenty of laughs along the way.
Some episodes go deep, some are totally ridiculous—but all of them are real. Whether you're here for laughs, perspective, or just to feel a little less alone in the chaos, welcome to the family. We’re so glad you’re here.Copyright Tasha Jones Art Social Sciences Spirituality

    4. SCOTUS, Purity Culture & the Curious Case of the Checked-Out Parent
    Jun 28 2025
    It’s the last week of June, and this episode of Surviving the Joneses gets a little real—but in our usual, slightly chaotic way. We're talking about the recent Supreme Court ruling that allows parents to pull their kids out of school whenLGBTQ+ books/curriculim conflicts with their religious beliefs.We share our thoughts on what role schools should play, what we hope parents consider, and why shielding kids from different lifestyles does more harm than good. We also reflect on our own upbringings, growing up in purity culture with very little understanding of the world outside our own bubbles.It’s honest, a little messy, and full of heart—just like us.

    This week on Surviving the Joneses, we’re throwing it back to where it all began—how we met! Spoiler alert: it was love at first sight… and there may have been some awkward moments, bad timing, and unexpected twists along the way.We’re sharing the real (and slightly ridiculous) story of how two totally different people ended up building a life together. It’s part rom-com, part “what were we thinking?”—and totally us.Grab your popcorn (or your laundry basket) and come hang out while we relive the beginning of our chaos-filled, love-packed story.-

    Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈 This week on Surviving the Joneses, we’re chatting about what it’s like parenting as an LGBTQ+ couple—especially when you’re both coming from conservative roots. From navigating social media during Pride to raising kids in a more open, loving way, we’re keeping it real (and a little ridiculous, as always).
    We also kick off the episode talking about our new dog fence (exciting stuff, folks) and Philip’s very specific dream of being featured on a Dateline special... as a victim.
