About this episode

This week, we’re chatting about BABY NAMES. What goes into deciding on one? Do you share the name before they’re born? Do you invite opinions? The stakes feel very high for this early parenting decision, and we all go about it in slightly different ways -- pulling from relatives both dead and alive, childhood crushes, mere vibes, etc. Weekly Plugs: Tummy Time Wind Machines Emily Herzlin and Malkhut Strawberries Kate’s Instagram: @KateHerzlin Claire’s Instagram: @ClaireTadokoro Editing, recording, post production and dad insights by Joe Leonardo.  Music by Christopher Morucci.
