This week, Claire and Quinn have Amanda Hess (NYT writer and author of Second Life: Having a Child in the Digital Age) on the pod. They discuss the summer logistics of having a 3-year-old and a 5-year-old, Amanda's emerging second-book obsession (cryogenics, death tech, and the very human story underneath the billionaire-escape-pod headlines), boy mom discourse, training your Instagram algorithm, genetic testing, shame, and the difference between information that helps and information that just produces unnecessary grief and anxiety.
