Stephanie and Tali tackle the everyday circus of parenting: morning routines, chores, allowance, and all the “character-building” fun that comes with it. Along the way, we share book recs, realistic tips, and a few too-honest opinions about running and why older men just hit different.

In 1978, five friends from Yuba City vanished after a college basketball game. Months later their car was found in the Plumas National Forest, leading to a series of unsettling discoveries: bodies in the wilderness, a trailer full of untouched supplies, and a mystery that has never been solved. This episode explores who the Yuba County Five were, what may have happened that night, and why the case still haunts investigators and families nearly fifty years later.
