Morbidly Curious Edition

57 min • 19 augusti 2021

On this week’s episode: Jamilah, Elizabeth, and Aymann discuss their triumphs and fails for the week. Then they answer a question from a listener whose 6 year old daughter has become fixated on finding a cure for death. 

Later, they have some advice for a parent whose own parents are excellent grandparents to her children but who often cross some boundary lines. 


In Slate Plus: The latest UN report on climate change. How can we discuss this with our children without scaring the crap out of them? 


Recommendations:


Jamilah recommends AND8 Fitness for people who love to have fun during their workouts. 


Elizabeth recommends Kids Quip -- an electric toothbrush for kids that will help you get them out the door a little faster in the mornings. 


Aymann recommends buying an INSTAX Polaroid Camera to hand out polaroid pictures in place of party favors.
