Episode notes

Andrew: I'm so excited for this voyage that you are about to embark upon. By the time this is on the feed, the ship will have sailed. The good times will be rolling. And it's going to be so good and you're going to be such a good dad. He says he feels very grateful to know his closest friends who are parents. "I feel like I will benefit and my child will benefit from the parenting that you have already done"

We've talked about National Treasure Beverly Cleary on the show before, but we haven't spent time with her most indelible character, one Ramona Quimby. Recorded on the eve of Craig's new-dadhood, we're joined by TV critic and parenting expert Kathryn VanArendonk to discuss yard apes, sick days, and how differently the book hits from the other side of the parent/kid divide.
