Description

This week, comedian Nick Thune joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They all love their kids, BUT… Do we really need to be friends with their friends' parents? We've already been through grade school, high school, college, and the workplace, and we've made ALL the friends we need at this point. We're pretty set by now. Or, are we? During a family trip to Legoland, Kurt's daughter, Olive, quickly befriends a girl her age, leaving Kurt with no choice but to engage in small talk with a family he just met. It's an uncomfortable situation with almost no way out, unless you're Kurt, who resorts to faking a back injury while going down a Lego slide. When Nick throws a birthday party for his son, some parents seem to believe that the ""drop-off only"" suggestion was rather flexible, and they decide to hang around. The vibe at the party triggers flashbacks for Nick, reminding him of past hook-ups that didn't quite pick up on the signals that it was time to leave. It may seem like closing time for expanding the friend zone, but if we open our cold, dead hearts, perhaps there's room for one or two more parent friends.And remember, you can call our hotline and leave questions, comments, or your own funny, completely anonymous ""Circle Time"" parenting story at 424-570-KIDS, or you can email us at [email protected].

This is a safe place for parents to get away from it all. It’s a cliche that having kids is both the most rewarding and the hardest thing you’ll ever do. And it never ends: just when you’ve figured out how a newborn works, the kid becomes a toddler, then a tween, a teenager and beyond. And kids don’t come with an instruction manual or an off switch. Sure, you love your kids, best thing that ever happened to you blah blah blah, BUT…Welcome to I Love My Kid, But… a weekly escape where comedians Megan Gailey, Kurt Braunohler, Chris Garcia and guests unload about the joys and challenges of being a parent, all the hell their kids put them through, and how they might reclaim some of the glory of their pre-parenting life. You might learn a few things about how to be a better parent along the way, but it’s more important that you get to laugh and enjoy three very funny people vent about parenthood with other moms and dads who “get it.” No child psychologists here, no educators, or noted experts… just three comedians embracing all the L’s they take on a daily basis and celebrating all the small victories that make it all worth it. And if one of them lets slip that they might’ve sent their kid to school without lunch because they stayed out the night before with their college friends WAY too late, that’s ok too. No judgment here.
