Pre-Roll

It's that time of year, listeners. School has 8 special events that they just told us about before it ends, camps have sent a 40 item long list of things your child needs to bring, and there is NO bug spray left in sight. While our team scrambles to find deet, enjoy one of our favorite interviews of this first season: In honor of the series end of Workin' Moms on Netflix, the creator and star, Catherine Reitman.

You know when you talk to your friends about your childhood and end it by saying, "But look at us, we're fine!" Here's my question: Are we fine? Because we're sitting here doused in CBD oil under a weighted blanket recording a podcast called Parenting is a Joke. Each week, host and standup Ophira Eisenberg talks to a different comedian about their career and their kids. Conversations tackle the tooth fairy, eating sticks, summer camp anxiety, the hidden horrors of childbirth, and the obvious horrors of our own childhoods. We celebrate the absurdity of shuffling a career with raising a kid, highlight less traditional parenthood journeys, all while relishing in the fact that no one knows what they're doing, but we're all trying! Sometimes even our best. Co-produced by Pretty Good Friends and iHeartPodcasts. New episodes every Tuesday.
