Today on the pod we welcome THE go to parenting expert in the research space: Emily Oster!!!!

On this episode, we chat with Emily on how to cut through the fear that comes with parenting, and help YOU make informed decisions based on *actual* data (rather than obsessing over what our mother in law or neighbor or that one viral instagram post that totally freaked you out).

  • Is Cocomelon *really* rotting your child’s brain?
  • How much screen time is too much screen time?
