What do bedwetting, summer camp humiliation, and parental favoritism have in common? Apparently… everything.

Justin and Katy read an unhinged listener email about peeing the bed at camp, unpack why former bedwetters develop elite crisis-management skills, and spiral into a deeply relatable conversation about shame, survival, and whether parents actually have favorite children (spoiler: research says yes).

Also discussed: Purdue studies, grandparents playing favorites, and why the Montgomery Grip may have ruined at least one listener’s life.
