| 0:00.0 | From the front lines of the mom wars, here's Bethany Mandel and Kara Kennedy. |
| 0:11.4 | Hello and welcome to another episode of your favorite podcast, although we are still bereft without our Kara Kennedy, who went and had a baby so rudely. |
| 0:22.2 | She just up and left. |
| 0:24.1 | No notice, no warning. |
| 0:26.2 | The baby came early, mazzletop. |

| 1:20.9 | Like no one can hold this together. She was the producer, basically. And so we we called it quits when she had a baby. Yeah. How his mom were going? It's good. It's good. So I have the substack |
| 1:27.3 | and steadily growing. And I love |
| 1:29.2 | having the outlet to like opine on things more than on Twitter and having these wonderful |
