Omg, it’s Mother’s Day! Kristy’s celebrating with illegal daycare, her mom and Watson are celebrating with a very questionable surprise adoption, and everyone’s a bit sad about Mary Anne’s mother being dead, but not THAT sad.

On today’s agenda: full-on, balls-to-the-wall babysitting; faces are hard; monkey-level physics; bad gift epiphanies; Aoife the tragic Victorian orphan; the avocado curse; horrifying 1980s smoothie trends; the woke bae dads of Stoneybrook; a brief respite from the crushing grind of the capitalist patriarchy; some dude who lifts; a bona fide RUDE WORD; Karen and her Lovecraftian monstrosities; that one time when everyone’s parents got mad into sumo.

Our theme song is "The Incredible Shrinking Larry" by Matt Oakley and "Big Band Jingle A" is by Lobo Loco, both on the Free Music Archive.
