    Rethinking Tech In Schools with Jared Cooney Horvath (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Technology is such a huge part of our kids’ lives, especially at school, that we don’t always stop to ask: Is all of it actually helping them learn? This week, neuroscientist and educator Jared Cooney Horvath gave us a lot to think about. (And considering I haven’t been able to help with our kids’ math homework since elementary school, I definitely had some questions.) Jared joins us to explain what happens when screens replace handwriting, textbooks, and face-to-face interaction. We talk about

    Remembering Penn's Mom: Grief, Laughter & Our "Death Wishes" (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    My mom passed away last week after a very long battle with Alzheimer’s and dementia. If you’ve ever loved someone through this disease, you probably understand how complicated that grief can be. There is sadness and loss, but there can also be relief (and guilt for feeling that relief.) I’ve been around Alzheimer’s for almost 40 years, and I’m still learning that all of those feelings can exist at the same time. My Mom was a doer, a giver, and someone who spent her life serving her family and he

    What Our Neurodivergent Kids Need with Dr. Emily King (opens the original)

    Read excerpt

    Even when everything is going right, parenting a neurodivergent kid can be emotional. (And yes, I cry this episode... twice.) This week, Penn and I are joined by our friend, child psychologist, and author Dr. Emily King, to help teach us what our neurodivergent kids need to learn and be successful. We talk about why “just try harder” doesn’t work, how to know when to push your kid, why girls can fly under the radar, and how small systems like checklists can make a huge difference. We also get em

    Weird Jobs & Amazing Race Challenges (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Recently, Penn and I asked you to tell us about your weirdest summer jobs. From working in customer service for the WOW Chips debacle to a stripping gorilla, you really showed up for this episode! Your calls and messages had us laughing, cringing, and repeatedly asking one very important question: Where were the child labor laws?! (I guess it was the 90s…) Every weird job teaches you a lesson along the way. We not only heard from you, we call Kim’s old roommate, and even our producers Sam and An

    Do We Really Get Along & Alzheimer's Update (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Recently, a dear friend asked me: "Do you and your husband actually get along all the time? Tell me the truth." So this week on Laugh Lines, we are pulling back the curtain on what it’s actually like to be married, raise kids, AND work together every single day. We talk about the things we’ll probably never agree on, why I have decision fatigue, and how sometimes it’s okay to go to bed angry. We also get an update on Penn’s Alzheimer’s prevention journey. He recently overdid it at the gym and de
