Summary

Spouse alert! This week Kurt is on the hot seat as his wife, actress Lauren Cook joins him, Megan, and Chris. They love their kids, BUT…Why are the best laid plans blown up in seconds, because the only thing you can expect from kids is the unexpected? Megan shares a story about a wonderful mini-family vacation she lovingly planned only to have it ruined by judgey moms, demonic puke, and a little too much prosecco. Lauren Cook has been listening to the pod and she has NOTES for Kurt! But mostly she just gives us some insight into Kurt, the dad, as they compare parenting styles and she dishes on how most of Kurt’s mood swings can be attributed to, much like their children, if his belly is full or not. Someone get Kurt a snack, because he can expect to be in for a long show.

And remember, you can call our hotline and leave us questions, comments, or your own funny, totally anonymous “Circle Time” parenting story at 424-570-KIDS or you can email us at [email protected]. Just don't forget to start your story with, “I love my kid, but…” and maybe we'll use yours on air!
