Parenting is a Joke

著者: Ophira Eisenberg
  • サマリー

  • 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, and 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. New episodes every Tuesday. New Season October 1st.

  • Drying Golfballs with New Mom Sarah Tollemache
    2024/11/21
    In this bite-sized podcast episode, Ophira Eisenberg and comedian Sarah Tollemache take a hilarious trip down memory lane, reminiscing about holiday shenanigans and the rollercoaster ride of parenting. They fondly recall the wild, unsupervised escapades of their childhood holidays, where the only rule was "don't break anything... especially yourself." Fast forward to today, and they marvel at how parenting has morphed into a high-stakes game of "Don't Let the Kids Out of Your Sight." Together, they poke fun at the absurdity of striving for holiday perfection and champion the idea of keeping things simple. After all, the true spirit of the season isn't found in perfectly coordinated table settings or Instagram-worthy decorations, but in the belly laughs, the togetherness, and the love that fills the room—no matter how many times the dog knocks over the Christmas tree.
