What starts with tips and tools for teaching toddlers how to swim turns into one of the most unpredictable rides we’ve ever streamed. From parenting strategies and early childhood independence to AI ghosting, Sesame Street debates, and even shark rescues—this episode covers more than floaties and swim goggles.

Yes, we talk about real ways to help young kids feel confident in the water—but also:

Strange protest stories
Regrettable relationship decisions
3D-printed treehouses
Whether Sesame Street sold out
Politicians taking cognitive tests
And a literal shark rescue

You’ll laugh, think, and definitely hit a moment where you say, “Wait, what am I listening to?”

If you’ve ever taught a toddler anything (or tried), taken parenting advice from a meme, or gotten philosophical during bath time—this is your tribe.
