Our hospital experience will not shock you. It was great, and I talk all about it in this episode. Nurses, doctors, and mothers are superheroes and you can't tell me otherwise.

In this Episode of Okay Dad Pod, my lovely wife Rachel joins in to talk about how her pregnancy and the election cause her to feel very nauseous.
