Bedtime Stories for Tired Parents

What’s This Podcast
About?

Welcome to our little corner of the literary world! We're a husband and wife team who, like so many exhausted parents, found ourselves craving connection—with each other and with the stories that remind us we're more than just people who wipe surfaces and answer the same question seventeen times. After our daughter finally goes to bed each night, we pour a drink, collapse onto the couch, and somehow muster the energy to dive into a single short story from A Century of Fiction in the New Yorker. One story, one episode. That's it. We started this because, honestly, who has the brain capacity to read a whole book anymore? But a short story? We can handle that. And the conversations they spark when we're too tired to pretend we have it all together? Those are everything. Join us as we explore tales of love, loss, absurdity, and human nature—sometimes brilliant, sometimes baffling, always discussed through the haze of parental fatigue.
