Why is it that the U.S. continues to grapple with school shootings while other countries seem to have it under control? Join us on this emotional rollercoaster of an episode as we kick things off with some lighter fare—Emily's new obsession with "The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast" and Trina's audible disappointment over the hiatus of "Life is Short with Justin Long." We also share some touching moments from the Golden Bachelor, particularly Joan's heart-wrenching decision to leave the show for her daughter, proving once again that family always comes first.

From there, we shift our focus to the somber and alarming topic of school shootings. With 50 incidents already this year, we examine the controversial proposal to arm teachers and discuss alternative solutions like tying gun ownership to social security numbers. Our conversation underscores the critical need for better mental health resources for children and the importance of responsible gun ownership. We draw inspiration from the Army's firearm safety practices, stressing the urgency of implementing similar measures to protect our schools.

As we move forward, we reflect on the systemic issues plaguing our educational system and the rising trend of homeschooling. Sharing personal stories of fear during school lockdowns, we highlight the psychological toll on students and the varied responses from teachers. To round off the episode, we emphasize the power of parental love and small acts of kindness in fostering a positive environment for our children. We leave you with a heartfelt reminder to take care of yourselves—sometimes, a simple walk outside can work wonders for your well-being.
