I Pushed the Elf Off of The Shelf: Listener Holiday Advice

In this lively, holiday-themed snack-sized episode of Parenting is a Joke, host Ophira Eisenberg welcomes comedian and holiday advice-gatherer Emily Winter for a laugh-packed chat on surviving the festive season. From the chaos of cross-country travel to the psychological warfare of managing "Elf on the Shelf," this episode is full of relatable humor and practical insights. Hear crowd-sourced gems like why Santa shouldn’t get credit for the big gifts and why new parents should skip hosting altogether. Emily and Ophira also bond over the joy of practical, thoughtful presents—like cozy socks, pajamas, or even melatonin-laced edibles to unwind. Whether you're laughing at parenting fails or inspired by unconventional tips, this episode is the perfect bonbon-sized holiday treat
