Hello friends! We’re excited to welcome you to Pop Squared, our lifestyle blog about things of interest to us, and we hope you as well.
For those of you who we haven’t met, we’re Chris (Pop #1) and Jimmy (Pop #2), two soon-to-be fathers who share a ton of interests and passions across a massive spectrum, including science-fiction, parenting, fitness, food and almost everything in between.
One of our relationship’s best parts is our passion for continually learning, both from each other and from others. A few months ago, we sat down and discussed how we could share some of these ideas. We hope to build a community as we embark on our adventure to become the best version of ourselves, the best husbands to each other, and the best fathers to our family.
We’ve been hard at work assembling a broad slate of exciting content to share with you. Here’s a sneak peek at the types of content you’ll find here on Pop Squared.
Baby
As we mentioned, we’re soon-to-be fathers, but we already know that raising a family can be a handful. We’ll share some of the tips and tricks we’ve learned to make this easier, as well as insights into our parenting styles.
Culture
As life-long learners, we strongly believe in diversity and appreciate differences. It’s often a fantastic opportunity to learn something new. Our culture stories will touch upon this and discuss the broader theme of pop culture, as we discuss ideas that we feel capture the zeitgeist of our world.
DIY
Continuing the theme of learning, we’re both very hands-on types of individuals. The Do It Yourself (DIY) lifestyle is more than just arts and crafts projects for us. (Though there will be plenty of that too!) For us, the DIY mindset is that with a few basic tools and some basic skills, you can accomplish pretty much anything your mind can imagine.
Family
We believe that we’re at our best when we’re with others. Our goal with family-related content is to share ideas that bring the whole family together for fun and education.
Fitness
In the mindset of ‘being the best version of ourselves’, fitness is essential. We’ll talk about our progress and approach and new things we’re exploring as we embark on that journey.
Food
Ahhh, delicious, and yummy food. Isn’t that one of the best things on this planet? All the unique flavors and tastes. Maybe even that carb coma nap you want to take afterward? We’ll share some of the latest recipes we’re trying, and our spin on a few classics. InstantPot lovers, you’ll want to tune in for this.
Gear
From the latest tech gadgets to reviews of toys, board games, baby products, and more, you’ll want to check out our Gear section for thoughts on some of the latest products of interest to our family and us.
Living
Finally, our Living section represents a collection of thoughts around turning (and keeping) your casa into your castle. We’ll talk about our approach to keeping our home in its best condition, from maintenance and organization to automation and everything else in between.
And that’s just a quick look at the types of content you can expect. But there will be plenty of other surprises along the way too. We’re hard at work crafting great new content, and we’re excited to begin sharing it with you soon.
