This week comedian Moshe Kasher joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT…they’re terrified that no matter how they convey the importance of the golden rule and treating others with kindness - their kids will still grow up to be amoralistic monsters. Kurt wants to build his children’s moral code without the tenets of religion or the threats of eternal damnation, but may have gone a little too secular when his daughter is quoting magicians instead of Jesus. Moshe thinks his young daughter’s emotional maturity isn’t quite fully formed enough to handle some of the big moral questions like, “Should I grieve for my dead dog or watch my stories!”. Crying, laughter, struggle, and success…maybe it’s all part of the recipe for raising a good kid.

This week Tiffani Thiessen joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT…they’re tired of being public enemy #1 the minute they enter a restaurant with their kids. Megan feels like the scarlet letter, “K,” is emblazoned on her chest when she brings her kid to a nice restaurant where they are relegated to the worst “members only” location on Earth- the children’s area. And Tiffani Thiessen may have a solution to the problem that involves leftovers and martinis. Tiffany also shares her struggle letting her 13 year old daughter have access to social media. Thankfully for her, it’s just the ONLY way every 13 year old communicates on Earth.

This week actor Jason Mewes joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT…why is getting them to change their routine like taking a left in the Suez Canal? 

Kurt discusses how telling Olive that she’s attending a new school this year was akin to telling her that every puppy on Earth had vanished, while Jason Mewes is just coming to terms with the fact his 8 year-old daughter wants to wear a bra when the ultimate transition, a new baby boy, changes the family dynamic and throws him backwards into a world of diapers, crying, feedings. Ultimately, the crew learns that while change is hard on kids, it’s way more brutal for the big baby adults. So deal with it, kids!

This week comedian Greg Fitzsimmons joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT… becoming a parent has definitely unlocked some deep-seated rage within all of them! Chris opens up about hucking a hot LaCroix at a driver after a near-miss fender bender while Greg admits that his rage is no match for his daughter when it comes to poolside family reunions. But despite all their rage, the crew can rest a little easier knowing that one day they might channel all that parental aggression into something productive, like teaming up with their adult children to swindle slimy pool sharks at the local billiard hall… Ok, maybe that’s just Fitz and his daughter.

This week everyone’s favorite “Superstore” employee, Colton Dunn, joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT… they didn’t know becoming a parent would give them superpowers!? Megan reveals how she summoned her mommy powers to finagle an international plane ticket to make it home during some epic flight delays. Meanwhile Colton’s prowess for parental scheduling is powerless against the kryptonite that is his kids refusal to cooperate! And everyone agrees that it doesn’t matter how much “love” you put into cooking family dinner because, let’s be honest, most of it will end up on the floor anyway.

This week “Crashing” creator Pete Holmes joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT… becoming parents has turned them into people they never thought they’d be. Kurt confesses that all his future dad fits officially reside in a dirty Costco clothing bin. Pete admits he broke his “famously vegan” streak by succumbing to his daughter’s left-over chicken nuggets. But all the parental torture is worth it when your kids show flashes of affection, even if they come after you’re forced to dig through the trunk of your car in 100-degree weather because your child insists they need their mittens… NOW.

This week comedian Matt Braunger joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT…they’re happy to drop them off with complete strangers for 7 hours a day and be blissfully ignorant to what happens within the black box of day care. Megan reveals that her daycare not only knows her child’s correct diaper size, they’re also showering her husband with gifts! And Matt Braunger admits that he was a giant, crying, man-baby when he first dropped off his daughter but realized all is good when he saw they turned her into a Spanish speaking neat freak. But of course, us parents will never know what black magic really happens behind the walls of the most exclusive club on the planet because when we ask our children what they did for the past SEVEN HOURS, all we get is, “nothing.”

This week, comedian and actor Kristen Schaal joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT…why does it take 7 hours to eat, poop, brush their teeth, read a book, and go to bed at night? The crew talks about that no fly zone between dinner time and bed time when any number of things can go wrong. And this week, it’s bath time that has Megan exhausted, soaking wet, and topless…not in a good way. Plus when Kristen Schaal hosts a party, you better believe there’s a hard out at 7pm. You don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here because there’s a tiny, filthy, cranky monster that’s about to unleash holy hell until they pass out in a puddle of suds and toothpaste on top of the sheets that were just cleaned.

This week, HGTV star Mina Starsiak Hawk joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids….BUT what the hell did these kids do to mommy’s body? Megan talks about how she dealt with her pregnancy and post-pregnancy body transformations and how shockingly, men didn’t stop being crude sex demons for one second. However, on the positive side, she did find out there was a pretty healthy market for her breast milk! Plus, Mina Starsiak Hawk opens up about her own mommy makeover, why it was important for her to be open about the process and why her path to a tighter tummy may not be the right one for every woman. She also dispels the myth that she’s a perfect HGTV mom because she is NOT above letting her child cry it out in the rain in front of hundreds of judgy people for an hour. And finally participation trophies, shoes, and golf are all ordered to go stand in the corner for 15 minutes and not say a word.

This week, comedian and legendary late-night sidekick, Andy Richter, joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids…..BUT, there are no days off with kids, even if you had 2 or 18 drinks the night before. Going out with friends and having a few isn’t what it used to be and screens can’t babysit all day, so slug down some aspirin and throw a plate of bacon down your throat because momma, there’s no calling in sick. Plus Andy Richter shakes off the cobwebs and jumps back into the parenting pool with his fiancée's three-year-old. Andy discusses how he found the fountain of youth going through the toddler phase again, and the crew plots vengeance against every parent’s mortal enemies, snot and hiccups.
