“I’m Not An Australian YouTuber With Frosted Tips” with Baron Vaughn | 36

This week comedian and actor Baron Vaughn joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT…why are we worrying about what a six year old is going to be when they grow up? Kurt got a chance to go to career day at Olive’s school and show all the kids what a comedian’s life is like. And while the tough toddler crowd didn’t appreciate Kurt’s jokes, his daughter, on the other hand, killed it on stage. What should be a proud papa moment, turns into a comedian’s worst nightmare as Kurt grapples with encouraging Olive to follow her dreams or trying to squash that performer bug since he knows first hand how brutal this career path can be. As a former performing arts school student, Baron sees things a bit differently, and believes it’s ok to lean into their strengths and passions without pushing them to make a life choice while they’re still struggling to tie a shoe.   And remember, you can call our hotline and leave us questions, comments, or your own funny, totally anonymous “Circle Time” parenting story at 424-570-KIDS or you can email us at [email protected].
