We Have A Confession Jan 21, 2026

Show notes

Okay yes fine. We admit it. Sometimes we make meals our whole families enjoy and sometimes we make five different dishes, one for each human in the house. We do it because we can. Because it’s not that hard. Because not every moment needs to be a teachable one. And sometimes just getting dinner down their gullet is worth not fighting an entire war over a dang pea. We also admit a whole bunch of other stuff. Like how much more therapy we need and how we can’t take complements on this episode of Childproof.

Books, babies, and Befores & Afters Jan 14, 2026

Show notes

The new year is always ripe with promise of change. But these changes were inevitable. On this episode of Childproof we’re talking books, baby fever (no neither of us are having more babies, relax) and how to handle body acceptance and changes to our bodies without making a negative change. Framing self improvement as just that. Improvement.

Basically Facetime Dec 24, 2025

Show notes

It’s another preshow preview. And a montage. Who doesn’t love a montage? Yes we did one of these but we aren’t very good at planning and this one isn’t the same as the one a few months ago. Our Patrons and paid subscribers get these little treats served to them every week. It’s basically a FaceTime between Tori and I. We typically have to explain that folks should lower there expectation for what their getting in exchange for their support. But we don’t have to disclaimer that this time. You can see for yourself.

Holiday Movie Review Nov 26, 2025

Show notes

It’s the holiday season and tomorrow is Thanksgiving. Your friendly neighborhood podcasts hosts little bit forgot they’d be insanely busy in the lead up to Thanksgiving in the US. So you get a preshow run long. If you’re a former subscriber you’ll recognize this chaos for what it is. Tori and Gwenna being odd and barely having their ish together. From behind the scenes info to an in depth discussion of parenting in Christmas movies this episode is a lot of something and nothing and everything. Happy Thanksgiving.

We want to hear from you, let us know how you feel about Christmas movies! Email us: childproofmail@gmail.com
