We’ve done the math and it’s official backseaters, mom and dad over here have coordinated, executed, and lamented a total of 40 birthday parties for our kids and there is no sign of stopping. Is it cause for celebration?  We’ll let you decide, we’re just glad we made it this far! Today on the show, Dustin defines his style somewhere between vegan tacos and hate for water, we consider if High School is much like Toddlers living in jail, High Tea celebrations in Orange County, is therapy all it’s cracked up to be, and much more.  Join the Dustin Nickerson Comedy Fans Facebook Group: http://www.facebook.com/groups/dustinnickersoncomedy Enjoy the show! - Watch the new comedy special, Runs in the Family from Dustin Nickerson | (Full Comedy Special) #newcomedy #standupcomedy : https://youtu.be/0Dybn3Atj9k Don’t forget, you can now WATCH the show on YouTube for the full featured experience here: https://www.youtube.com/@DustinNickerson.
