Summary
In this episode of After Hours With Amanda, I’m kicking off a new movie parallels and parenting series with Hook.
I’m talking about adulthood, parenthood, summer, fun, expectations, and why so many of us were taught that growing up means letting the magic disappear. The feast scene got me, y’all. Peter cannot see what is right in front of him until he starts to believe again, and honestly, how often are we doing that as adults and parents?
This one is about getting your hair wet, making spaghetti night ridiculous, choosing and/or instead of either/or, and not starving the magic right in front of you.

| 0:00.0 | All right, we're back. Look at me. I just, I just popped a kombucha. That was probably incredibly |
| 0:05.7 | loud. Welcome back. Let's kick things off right from the start. Profesh, profesh. Welcome to |
| 0:13.5 | After Hours with Amanda, the podcast that has lost all vision for what it is, but basically has to do |
| 0:19.3 | with parenting. Yourself, your inner |
| 0:21.0 | child, and hopefully helps with the relationships around you. Someday we're going to come up with, |
| 0:25.1 | like, some really legitimate intro that I firmly can stick with. But due to the fact that my |
| 0:31.5 | content is so, you know, it's like me. It's unpredictable. Where is she going? I don't know, but hopefully it lands. |
| 0:39.8 | An intro was hard for me, as well as intro music. I've gotten a couple DMs. Amanda, why don't you ever do some intro music? |
| 0:46.5 | You know what? We might just stick with the ice shake or the can pop of a kombucha. |
| 0:50.7 | Can I also tell you? I am so excited for this podcast episode and to share with you |

| 1:08.5 | Sweetest old couple. But one of them is doing some type of |
| 1:11.8 | construction I was fully unaware of. And the minute I walked out of Corey's room, I heard straight |
| 1:17.3 | concrete like, and you're just like, no, no ma'am, no ma'am, no ma'am. So I'm going to try and block |
| 1:25.0 | it out. Unless Corey comes in and presents this with a little cameo again, in which case we might just |
| 1:31.6 | have a guest on the show today. |
| 1:32.8 | No, we could not do that. |
| 1:33.8 | Oh, my gosh. |
| 1:34.5 | Y'all, she would be so chaotic. |
| 1:36.3 | Okay. |
