Ep. 194 – Pre-gaming the 'Total Eclipse of the Heart of it All'

Ever feel like your identity gets a little lost between the school run and the bedtime routine? That’s the space where Craft Parenting Podcast lives. Hosted by Cincinnati couple Joe and Caroline Ludwig, this is a conversation between two parents who are also deeply passionate craft beer enthusiasts. They’re figuring it out in real time, with two kids keeping life interesting. In each episode, you’ll hear their unfiltered takes on the week’s small victories and chaos, whether it’s a toddler meltdown in the grocery store or the genuine joy of discovering a fantastic new local brewery. The stories are grounded in their midwestern life, blending tales of family adventures with genuine recommendations for a great pint, often enjoyed after the kids are finally asleep. It’s less about perfect advice and more about the shared experience of holding onto your hobbies and your sense of self while navigating parenthood. Tune in for a relatable, slightly hoppy take on modern family life that reminds you you’re not alone in the beautiful mess.
