Comedians Erin Judge and Jenny Chalikian join the conversation to share the realities of balancing comedy and parenting. Erin recounts a surreal moment of performing stand-up while baby-wearing, proving that the show really must go on—even with a newborn attached. Jenny talks about the unexpected ways her toddler has influenced her comedic timing, from interrupting punchlines to unknowingly delivering some of the best material. They swap stories about the absurdity of school drop-off politics, including Erin’s realization that preschool cliques aren’t just for kids when she was unintentionally excluded from the “cool parent” group. Jenny also shares how her son’s obsession with repeatedly acting out the same scene from Frozen has made her rethink the mechanics of joke repetition—it turns out, toddlers and comedians both love a good callback. Plus, a discussion on whether parenting truly makes comedians funnier or just more exhausted.
