Join comedian Ryan Beck and host Ophira Eisenberg as Ryan shares his unique perspective on raising a toddler with big emotions—something he can relate to from his own childhood. They explore the highs and lows of parenting, comparing babies to trendy handbags and lamps—cute, but sometimes not very functional. Ophira and Ryan also discuss the quest for the perfect therapist, reflecting on what they need now as parents. And Ryan opens up about his childhood nickname, “Cryin’ Ryan,” and how those early experiences shape his approach to parenting today.

Whether you’re a seasoned parent or just starting your journey, this episode will resonate with anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed, confused, or simply amused by the absurdities of raising a family. Tune in for a light-hearted take on the modern parenting experience!
