Holiday Horror Stories: From Puke to Pink Eye and Beyond

In this special holiday snack-sized episode of Parenting is a Joke, Ophira Eisenberg shares listener-submitted stories of holiday mishaps and parenting disasters. From festive puke-filled car rides to Lego-set mix-ups, a ravioli catastrophe that spanned three floors and the perils of trying to be a supermom post-C-section, these tales will make you laugh, cringe, and feel less alone in the season's chaos. Ophira also reflects on her own unforgettable holiday moments, like her Jewish Santa revelation and a particularly sticky Boxing Day involving remotes and red Gatorade. It’s a celebration of parenting during the most “wonderful” time of the year! ✨ Subscribe, rate, and review! Follow us on socials @ParentingAsAJoke and @OphiraE (or @OphiraNYC on TikTok).

Om Podcasten

You know when you talk to your friends about your childhood and end it by saying, "But look at us, we're fine!" Here's my question: Are we fine? Because we're sitting here doused in CBD oil under a weighted blanket recording a podcast called Parenting is a Joke. Each week, host and standup Ophira Eisenberg talks to a different comedian about their career and their kids. Conversations tackle the tooth fairy, eating sticks, summer camp anxiety, the hidden horrors of childbirth, and the obvious horrors of our own childhoods. We celebrate the absurdity of shuffling a career with raising a kid, and highlight less traditional parenthood journeys, all while relishing in the fact that no one knows what they're doing, but we're all trying! Sometimes even our best. New episodes every Tuesday. New Season October 1st.
