Recorded live from PodJam in Henderson, Nevada, this special episode of Parenting is a Joke features Ophira Eisenberg hosting a lively panel of working moms—Desiree Goble, Rachel Spitz, Kim Nyborg, and Ty Vosslership—who bring real-world parenting tales from all corners of the U.S. They swap stories about managing chaotic departures to attend PodJam, mean girl drama in middle school, sleep training regrets, the challenges of potty training a stubborn toddler, and even the emotional rollercoaster of raising kids with anxiety and OCD. The panelists share how they talk to their children about current events, including one standout conversation about teaching kids to assess politics by asking, "Does it help or hurt?" Plus, Ophira gets surprised by a guest appearance from Dr. Aaron Carroll, who reassures parents about delayed potty training and puts breastfeeding pressure into perspective. From freezer-stashed breastmilk jewelry plans to a hilarious “balance of the fucks” parenting philosophy, this episode is a relatable snapshot of modern parenting's daily victories and absurdities. Special thanks to Pete Dominick for making it all happen!

Our writer Ophira Gottlieb tells the story of the Britannia Coconut Dancers of Bacup, in Lancashire. For over a century the troupe of morris dancers has performed up and down the town's streets dressed in knitted jumpers, candy-striped kilts, and painted completely black. “I worked in a pub just outside Manchester,” Ophira remembers, “many of the customers felt the practice was racist and badly outdated, but just as many disagreed.” On Easter weekend, Ophira finally met these dancers. Nicknamed the “Coconutters”, Ophira set out to understand why they hold a practice that many find so offensive so close to their hearts. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Comedian and writer Robby Slowik joins the show to talk about balancing stand-up with parenting, as he and his wife, comedian Casey Balsham, prepare for baby number two. Robby shares how he went from being ambivalent about having kids to navigating the chaos of IVF, all while working unpredictable gigs and writing for The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. He recalls the moment a fertility doctor ruthlessly critiqued his sperm under a microscope and how their first IVF attempt involved "an amount of drugs that would kill most barn animals." He and Ophira bond over the unique struggles of raising kids in a creative profession, from juggling late-night sets to traveling internationally with a toddler—like the time they performed in Bologna while sharing a backstage with a burlesque dancer mid-costume change. Robby also recounts his unusual childhood of constant relocation—South Africa, Israel, England, the Cayman Islands, and Florida—thanks to his nomadic, gambling-addicted, orthopedic surgeon father. Plus, hear why he refuses to sit down in an IVF clinic sample room and why his family might just pack up and move to London. ✨ Subscribe, rate, and review!

Ophira Eisenberg once believed that everyone had a trauma quota, a maximum amount of hardship that a person would face in life and once that mark was hit, nothing bad would ever happen again. It was a way of comforting herself after a car accident at age eight that seriously injured Ophira and killed her friend. Turns out that's not how life works and Ophira still had cancer and a miscarriage to deal with later on. Ophira joins us for a wise and actually very funny conversation about trauma, being an “awful patient”, and healing.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

This week on Parenting Is a Joke, Ophira Eisenberg chats with the ever-hilarious Sally Brooks, comedian and author of Going to Maine: All the Ways to Fail on the Appalachian Trail. Sally opens up about her grueling five-month hike and how those endless blisters and unpredictable trail moments mirror her parenting journey. Sally Brooks and Ophira swap stories about the guilt trips only kids can deliver—like Sally's son asking, “Are there ever going to be three people in this house again?” after she leaves for a show, and the absurd world of parenting cliches, like the timeless wisdom of turning off lights because "we don't work for the electric company," and the generational quirks we inherit from our own parents. They also talk about Sally's outdoor adventures, from dragging her son on hiking vacations he'd rather skip to dreaming of a future family trek on the Appalachian Trail (if he ever becomes a hiking enthusiast) and the brilliant art studio she constructed in her own backyard. ✨ Subscribe, rate, and review!

Biz opens up about wrapping up her 12-year podcast journey, navigating grief, and what she might tackle next as her kids grow older. Together, they unpack why parenting in America feels harder than ever, the cultural disdain for kids, and the impossible demands on parents in a system designed to fail them. They also talk about the joys of housecleaning—or gleefully ignoring it—while Ophira dreams of living on a minimalist boat. Biz shares her tried-and-true approach to parenting wins, from managing Halloween meltdowns to embracing her son's unconventional food choices.
