Summary

Biz and Theresa admit that when we have those “what if I hadn’t done this or that” moments it may be tied to unrecognized guilt. Like most parenting guilt, while it isn’t true, it still feels bad, so is there any benefit to it? Plus Biz is not in a happy place, Theresa is in a happy place and we talk to James Breakwell, the exploding unicorn himself, about his new book Only Dead On The Inside: A Parents Guide For Surviving The Zombie Apocalypse. Check out James on twitter @XplodingUnicorn and you can find his book Only Dead on the Inside: A Parent's Guide to Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse online and in booksellers near you!
