Staying Healthy After Going Going Viral with Katie Love

In this Parenting is a Joke snack-sized episode, Ophira Eisenberg shares a parenting moment that perfectly sums up the emotional unavailability of every guy she ever dated—courtesy of her son’s fart noises. Then, she sits down for a bite-sized chat with social media strategist Katie Love to discuss parenting in the digital age. Katie opens up about the decision to share (or not share) her children on social media, the unexpected backlash her daughter received after a viral Santa moment, and how she maintains boundaries in a career that never truly clocks out. Plus, Ophira and Katie commiserate over online trolls, how female comedians and content creators get picked apart for their appearance more than their work, and why moms seem to get judged for parenting decisions no matter what they do. It’s a quick but packed conversation about the intersection of parenthood, digital culture, and surviving the comment section. ✨ Subscribe, rate, and review!

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.
