Episode 205: Age Ain’t Nothin’ But a Number. Plus, Professional Wrestling… as Moms!

Episode 205

18th May 2017

Biz and Theresa wonder if we’re putting too much or too little weight on our kids’ actual ages. Every time our older kids reach a new age, it seems younger than we imagined it would be, and our younger kids — no matter how old they get — always seem little compared to our big kids. When we set limits and expectations based on our kids’ ages, it always somehow feels totally arbitrary! Plus, Biz acts like she cares, Theresa solves the formula, and we talk to actresses and moms Kimmy Gatewood and Rebecca Johnson about Glow, the new Netflix series about lady wrestlers.
