Announcing The Clean Record Podcast

Both Homes Press has launched its first podcast: The Clean Record — with Dana Whitaker, the audio companion to Co-Parenting or Parallel Parenting with a Toxic Ex and to the Clean Record series. The first episodes were published on 27 October 2026, and new episodes follow weekly.

What it is

Each episode takes one message a co-parent actually receives — the 2 a.m. rant, the ambush bill, the swap demand — and gives the calm reply: what to send, word for word, what never to send, and what to do if they escalate. Episodes run about seven minutes. The first two are "Why Persuasion Fails: The Letter You Keep Writing" and "The 2 A.M. Rant: What to Do When It Lands."

The podcast follows the book's rules. It is general information, not legal or therapeutic advice, and where a situation needs a professional or a safety resource, the episode says so and gives the number.

Where to listen

Episodes also play on the author's site, where every episode is published with a full transcript: danawhitakerbooks.com/podcast

How it is made

Episodes are AI narration in the voice of Dana Whitaker, produced by Both Homes Press. We disclose this here, in the show's description, and in every episode's notes, for the same reason we disclose AI assistance in our books: readers and listeners are entitled to know how a thing was made. The scripts are written and reviewed by people before they are voiced, and the words are held to the same standard as everything we publish.

The series is open-ended. The first season works through the scenarios of the first book, and new episodes will accompany new books as the Clean Record series grows.
