Mom Wins! (and Mother's Day Fails)
b'Happy Mother\\u2019s Day Week! In this episode we salute YOU, Mom. Our listeners told us their biggest mom wins and we are passing out some awards- like to Francesca, who has convinced her rambunctious two-year-old that the signs in most public spaces say that all little boys have to stand right next to their mommies. \\xa0\\nWe also address the various ways that our small children\\u2019s Mother\\u2019s Day art projects have completely ratted us out. If you\\u2019ve ever stood in the hallway outside a kindergarten classroom and seen, projected in three-inch crayoned letters, the proclamation that your own favorite food is \\u201cBEER,\\u201d we are here for you. \\xa0\\nCheck out whatfreshhellpodcast.com for Amy\\u2019s \\u201cmom prom\\u201d picture and Billy Collins\\u2019 poem The Lanyard, which perfectly encapsulates the insufficiency of any Mother\\u2019s Day gift to properly thank us for what we do. You know what? That\\u2019s the point. No thanks *can* be good enough. So enjoy those lukewarm eggs benedict and hastily-purchased greeting cards! You\\u2019re worth it- and so very much more. \\xa0\\nLearn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices'
