Where can you listen?

Better Together Apart is a podcast where Eli and Aiden—ex-husbands who made a commitment to stay lifelong friends—share their journeys of finding love after love. In their mid-40s, they spent 20 years together before separating, yet they continue to co-parent their two daughters under the same roof. Now, both are searching for a meaningful relationship with the right man to share the next chapter of their lives.

With honesty, humor, and raw vulnerability, Eli and Aiden explore what it means to be single gay dads navigating the modern dating world after two decades away from it. They dive into topics like dating in your 40s, dating as a parent, open relationships and other types of customized relationships, religious and cultural differences, long-distance relationships, age gaps, sexual compatibility, and more.

No topic is off-limits as they decode the complexities of dating in today’s digital era—all while maintaining a supportive, healthy friendship as exes. Better Together, Apart is more than a podcast about dating—it’s about redefining love, family, and partnership in a way that works.
