In this episode, we delve into talking about the S* word with our kids, which reminds us of our own childhood learning. Annie struggles with wanting to be a cool mom. And we take our 8 year old to see Wicked. Highly recommend!

Annie and Kevin take the kids to a Danny Go concert that Annie has been looking forward to for weeks, but right when they hit the road, the car won't start. It's been a rough week with book fairs and teachers conference and an almost forgotten picture day, but we keep going and twitching and unexpectedly crying.

In some post-election haze, Kevin and Annie talk about their funniest moment from Halloween trick-or-treating, whether boob and fart jokes should be tolerated and the YMCA walk/run that lived up to it's name. Also, Annie yells at her kids on a school morning. Whaattt?

Our kiddo had her first swim meet and it was overwhelming for everyone involved most mostly the parents. We learned swim rules, like why you don't take pictures until the swimmers are in the pool, but not what to do with your legs when you breaststroke. Big week coming up! Hope you had a happy halloween and good luck getting through the spookiest thing of all - presidential elections!

It's an overwhelming week and Kevin is having some anxiety. He confirmed with The Daily that we, the parents, are not all right. Annie needs more sleep, but can't. And we're entering the Halloween to Christmas pipeline (or Hanukkah or Kwanzaa. Sorry for being so myopic in the pod), not to stress anyone out. We talk about dressing up for Halloween and Spirit Week and what to do when your kid seems burnt out. Spoiler, we don't really know.

Kevin is officially 40 and to celebrate, the whole family took a trip to Santa Barbara (on a train!) which was fun but also stressful, because what if someone spontaneously tips over near some train tracks?! Also does your algorithm ever un-algorithm? Plus, Annie loves melatonin and Kevin loves regaining his identity after bedtime.

Kevin talks about his big feelings about turning 40 and mid-life crisis activities. Annie loves location sharing. They talk about their unfortunate Christopher Columbus admiration growing up and wishing for more October 3 day weekends. And Kevin tries to hide his feelings watching Inside Out 2, but not on Annie’s watch.

The kids just keep getting sick and there's another doctor's visit this week that gets a little scary for Kevin. Plus the kids heckle Annie while the parents somehow get TWO date nights in one week, an unheard of phenomenon not to be repeated.
