In this episode of Parenting Is a Joke, Andy Richter joins Ophira Eisenberg to talk about raising three kids across two generations—his 23-year-old son, 18-year-old daughter, and a four-year-old he's helping raise with his new wife. Andy reflects on how parenting feels different now that he's happier, newly remarried, and out of a long stretch of depression. He shares how his youngest daughter “runs the household,” including her silent-scream protest when he put her to bed, and how he navigates parenting alongside a Disney-obsessed extended family where his sister-in-law once played Jasmine at Disneyland. Andy contrasts his own self-reliant, latchkey childhood with the more protected upbringing of his older kids and admits he sometimes overcorrected by doing too much for them. He describes the uneasy balance of using personal material in comedy—recalling the “divorced dad” jokes he deleted from Twitter—and the line between honesty and oversharing, both online and in family life. Through it all, his warmth and humor shine, whether he's talking about his son's Uber Eats job, his daughter's bedtime negotiations, or his hope that one day his kids will want to work with him the way Robert Altman's children did—with love strong enough to last sixteen hours on set.

I've been thinking a lot about how money moves — and how we still talk about it as if it doesn't. It all started with a TikTok comment. Somebody asked, “When have rich people ever moved to avoid taxes?” I typed back a few examples — Eduardo Saverin to Singapore, the French actor Gérard Depardieu to Belgium, the wave of Californians to Texas — and before I knew it, I was deep in the rabbit hole of what economists call capital flight.It's the quiet migration that rewires everything. Cities still pretend they control wealth, but wealth learned how to walk. In the twentieth century, capital was heavy. Factories and banks were physical. You could trap it with paperwork. That's how we ran 90-percent tax rates in the 1950s — because money couldn't leave.Now it can. And does. The second you make the rich uncomfortable, they don't argue; they relocate. You can't run 1950s taxes in a 2025 economy. You can't play chicken with people who can teleport.Take New York right now. With Zohran Mamdani elected mayor, talk of new taxes and rent freezes is driving the same professionals who fund the city to look for exits: Westchester, Jersey, Connecticut. These aren't oligarchs — they're the $400k-a-year scaffolding that holds the budget up. Lose enough of them and the math collapses.We've turned taxation into courtship. Look at Amazon HQ2: Arlington and a dozen other cities groveling for the same HQ like contestants in an economic beauty pageant. Modern governments don't tax the rich — they audition for them.And it's not ideology. It's comfort. Make the princess-and-the-pea class uneasy and they'll hop to somewhere cooler. The same dynamic drives gentrification: mayors won't admit they want to bulldoze blight, so they build stadiums and call it “revitalization.” Nationals Park did it in D.C.; the Olympics do it every time. Prestige becomes a permit for displacement.I don't hate any of this. It's just physics. Money follows comfort, and policy either acknowledges that or dies pretending otherwise. Charity is opt-in. Tax support is opt-out. And when cities forget that, they lose the people who keep the lights on.It's not the 19th century anymore. The steam still rises from the streets, but the power that once drove it has already left the city.

Imagine watching a pot of water with frogs in it. The city adds a little heat — higher taxes, new regulations, moral lectures — and waits to see what happens. At first, nothing. The frogs get used to it. Then one day the temperature crosses a line, and they jump. That's how modern economies lose their wealth. Not with protests, not with revolutions — but with relocation.In the past, money was trapped. Rockefeller couldn't just move Standard Oil to Singapore. The state had leverage. That's why we could run top tax rates near 90 percent in the 1950s — and still fund highways, NASA, and free public universities. But we deregulated, digitized, and globalized, and suddenly money turned into vapor. Now it flows wherever the vibe is better.Today, every governor plays host instead of sheriff. They beg for headquarters, sports teams, rich residents. Remember Amazon HQ2? That wasn't a competition — it was a collective confession. Cities have to woo wealth because they can't hold it anymore. Modern taxation isn't punishment; it's marketing.And it's not just billionaires. It's every dual-income family earning mid-six figures — the real tax base. They can move to Florida, Texas, or just twenty minutes north to Westchester. If you make them feel like villains, they'll leave quietly, and when they do, you'll lose the revenue that funds the compassion.I want cities to care for people — I believe in that deeply. But compassion without arithmetic is just performance art. If we want social programs that last, we have to keep the contributors from leaving. Make prosperity feel safe, not shameful.The stadiums, the Olympic bids, the waterfront makeovers — they're not just vanity. They're bait. The trick is pretending it's about culture while it's really about capital.That's the truth nobody likes to say out loud: in 2025, the rich don't live in cities; cities live under them.It's not the 19th century anymore. The world of heavy money and civic loyalty is gone. What's left is the great escape — quiet, legal, and constant — and the only cities that will survive are the ones smart enough to keep the frogs comfortable.

In this Parenting Is a Joke snack episode, Ophira Eisenberg chats again with Kate Auletta, Editor-in-Chief of Scary Mommy and Romper, about her years as a journalist and the surprising turns that led her from travel writing to parenting media. Kate recalls running HuffPost's “How to Raise a Kid” conference in 2017—pulling together experts to talk about money, race, sex, and digital literacy right as the Trump era began—and how it felt like a bright moment of optimism and connection before online discourse hardened. She and Ophira laugh about trolls who argue over sunscreen recipes and how parenting pieces, no matter how harmless, seem to ignite fury. Kate shares that her most viral post, written during the early pandemic, was simply a plea for parents to “give yourself grace,” while health content still draws the fiercest backlash. The conversation shifts to travel—her love for St. Barts (despite how un–kid-friendly it proved), the Costa Rican jungle cot that scarred her for life, and a vomit-filled night at a roadside hotel near the Basketball Hall of Fame. She swears by headphone adapters as her most vital travel gear, while her husband lugs an entire backpack of snacks. The episode ends, fittingly, with her dog Franklin barking in the background, signaling that even editors-in-chief can't escape the soundscape of parenting.

In this episode of Parenting is a Joke, Ophira talks with Kate Auletta, Editor-in-Chief of Scary Mommy and Romper, about raising two sons in the suburbs after growing up as a “true East Side” New Yorker. Kate shares how her mornings start with Picture Day chaos, a barking dog, and kids who quiz her about world politics before breakfast. She describes her nine-year-old as a relentless question machine and her older son as a newly minted golf enthusiast—“a full-on suburb kid.” The conversation covers everything from navigating kids' sports and body image to Kate's viral essay about keeping a “naked house,” which she defends as a way to model body confidence and normalcy. She also recalls how explaining the meaning of “69” abruptly ended her sons' giggle fits and how she recently schooled her tween on SEO after he assumed Google's top search result meant “best.” The two moms bond over C-section scars, endless school breaks, and the unspoken exhaustion of early mornings. The episode ends on Kate's wry admission that she's still clinging to the pool on Labor Day, refusing to surrender summer to Maysember.

She outlines her plan to repeal the sanctuary county law, fight congestion pricing, and restore fiscal responsibility to Westchester. Sculti calls on listeners to vote, aiming to unite Republicans, independents, and common-sense Democrats for a significant upset. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week, Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Bianca D'Alessio. The two talk about daily leadership strategies, building company culture through being present, and the importance of staying true to your story. In this episode, we discuss: How Bianca scaled her business from the ground up, learned from poor partnerships, and gradually transitioned from operator to CEO by hiring strategically and adapting her team's roles based on their strengths. What imposter syndrome has looked like for both Ivy and Bianca, and the ways women in leadership can reframe self-doubt into self-confidence. When challenging moments – from personal family issues to professional setbacks – became opportunities for Bianca to see failure as a pathway to growth. Why there's no true "work-life balance"—just life—and how focusing on personal growth, authenticity, and empowerment can fuel leadership success. What inspired Bianca's book, "Mastering Intentions," and how practices like gratitude, manifestation, and storytelling can help others amplify their power and impact?   Bianca D'Alessio is the CEO and founder of The Masters Division, where she manages a $10B real estate portfolio and oversees over 80 new construction projects across New York City, the Hamptons, Westchester, and international markets. Ranked the #1 Real Estate Broker in both New York City and State, and recognized by Crain's New York Business as a Notable Leader in Real Estate, Bianca is also the star of "Selling the Hamptons" on HBO Max and the author of Mastering Intentions: 10 Practices to Amplify Your Power and Lead with Lasting Impact.

Today we're welcoming Sarah and Matt from Hyggeland Cabin in upstate New York, who built their own cabin from the ground up—a decision born from a COVID-era road trip and a serendipitous introduction to Den Outdoors cabin plans. What makes their story particularly compelling is they started dating in May 2020, bought land together on their one-year anniversary, and spent the next two years building a cabin while navigating a brand new relationship.Sarah grew up in a handy New Hampshire household where building additions and self-sufficiency were the norm, while Matt came from Hong Kong and Los Angeles with zero carpentry experience. Their journey together became as much about Matt discovering a new identity as a blue-collar builder as it was about creating a physical space. They touched every piece of wood in their cabin—Matt sanding and Sarah staining—while managing the project themselves and learning to navigate decision fatigue, budget overruns, and relationship dynamics.Their unique living situation adds another layer: they actually live in the cabin except when it's rented, which means they're constantly commuting two and a half hours from their Westchester apartment for turnovers. This hands-on approach has given them deep insights into what makes a space functional, from hidden storage with childproof locks to phone chargers at every bedside.We explore their philosophy of building with love, why they chose hourly contractor rates despite the uncertainty, how they've embedded themselves in their local community through volunteer firefighting, and their honest reflections on burnout, relationship strain, and why they're already planning to build another cabin despite saying they'd never do it again.Whether you're considering a DIY build, navigating a major project with a partner, or wondering how to balance living in your rental property, this conversation offers candid insights from a couple who learned everything the hard way.Instagram: @hyggelandcabin Booking Site: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1150094111589366186?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaedjMdYkKtkd_J6LLAt7glhegEPG8HNDSbdKcsDtPzogFSuvyAS2WsHIqm5mg_aem_bAsfyE2-cGhia2He_BtZ8QInstagram: @cozyrockcabin Cozy Rock Cabin: https://staycozycabin.holidayfuture.com/listings/311027Cozy Camp Sebec: https://staycozycabin.holidayfuture.com/listings/311051 Cozy Rock Website: http://www.staycozycabin.com  YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_FgMwAgvORd1IwlH1nlC9g

Messages from a leaked group chat obtained by Politico show members of Young Republican groups from New York and across the country using racist, sexist, and antisemitic slurs.
