In this episode of Super Familiar with the Wilsons, Amanda and Josh wrestle with the joys and indignities of modern parenting, including teaching their kid to ride a bike, spoiler: there’s crying, possibly from all parties.

Along the way, they dive into caffeinated reflux regrets, debate the ethics of bird ownership, and get surprisingly philosophical about poop. Listener emails bring tales of Pride parades, pottery pilgrimages, and coffee mug addiction, while the Wilsons unpack what it means to really be helpful to your kids... even if it means outsourcing the hard stuff.

Featuring: nostalgic parenting fails, suburban social anxiety, a new product ad from Wilson Technologies, and some questionable thoughts about pelicans.

If you’re into marriage 2.0, secondhand life lessons, and the kind of podcast where "you're welcome" might start an argument...this one’s for you.
