Bothered

Dads, Moms, and the Mental Load of Playdates | EP010


Listen Later

Get ready to be BOTHERED by the story of a situation where two parents started to coordinate a playdate, at the request of their respective children. The one parent, a father, offered up his wife's number. Excuse me!? Julie Kim shares her frustration at this common occurrence, and scenarios like it where men will sometimes try to opt out of the organizing and socializing aspects of family life. Ties are made to the much talked about "male loneliness epidemic", and a new stand-up joke is born.
