Summary

Check out the full podcasts on my website! http://www.andrewdeast.com/podcast Today I have a really exciting episode for you guys. As many of you might know, Shawn and I are about to be parents and we have been doing everything we can to prep for baby East's arrival. Sitting down with Emily Oster was probably one of the best decisions I've made so far. Emily Oster got her doctorate from Harvard University and is now a professor at Brown, where she teaches Economics. Emily has written two books, "Cribsheet" and "Expecting Better" that analyze studies about pregnancy and raising kids to see what might and might not be true. While sitting down with Emily, I was finally able to relax a bit as I learned that there is no one way to approach parenting. Tune in to hear about Emily's findings in the wide world of parenting. I am also excited to announce my partnership with Himalaya- the best podcasting app around. Download their app and give me a follow! Follow me on Himalaya!!!
