Ep. 33 – They Call It Pillow Talk. I Call It Oversharing With the Ops
In this raw and reflective episode, Sidney and Tamra return to the mics after a rough start — and deliver one of their most honest conversations yet. From the power of a well-timed “thank you” to the small luxuries that make us feel rich (new socks, aluminum solo cups, two bowls of cereal), they explore the joy in life’s tiny comforts.

They get real about:

• Why men struggle with emotional intimacy
• The unspoken pressure of being your partner’s only outlet
• Loyalty programs, grocery store pet peeves, and secondhand furniture freakouts

But the second hour shifts tone.

A viral Instagram video about staying in marriage leads to an unfiltered conversation about resilience, mortality, and the passing of Malcolm-Jamal Warner. The couple reflects on aging, legacy, and what truly matters — love, laughter, and how we hold each other up.

Whether you’re married, single, or somewhere in between… this one’s for anyone navigating life in slow motion.

Ep. 32 – Dutch Bros vs Starbucks, Double Lives & the Need for Outside Friends
Sidney and Tamra are back at it — arguing coffee loyalty, unpacking cultural code-switching, and reflecting on the friendships that keep a marriage sane. From a rough night on stage to the conversations they'd have with their (hypothetical) Black child, this episode moves from laughs to real talk and back again. Honest, funny, and full of perspective — this is one of their most personal episodes yet.

They also dive into a Trevor Noah conversation on why married people still need outside friendships — and why it might just be the key to keeping things together.

Episode 31 – We’re Back w/ The Donut Test of Love
After a year-long hiatus, Running In Slow Motion returns with an honest, hilarious, and unexpectedly emotional deep dive into where we’ve been and what brought us back. Sidney and Tamra open up about career burnout, marriage rediscovery, mental health, perimenopause, and yes... a very heated debate about one free donut.

From summer naps to serious growth, this one’s packed with everything that makes this pod what it is: smart, funny, unfiltered conversation between two very independent people figuring it out — slowly.
