[outro jingle] It's Quinn.

00:00:07.660 --> 00:00:18.180
Maybe you're like me, and sometimes you just spiral out, not just because everything is a lot all of the time, but because some part of you actually wants to do something about it.

00:00:18.220 --> 00:00:31.660
But, I mean, holy shit, where to start, right? Great news. We built an app for that. It's called What Can I Do? Even better news, it's free and it's fast. It takes just three clicks to start unfucking the world.

00:00:45.340 --> 00:00:56.040
You know that moment when your kid is asking you something for the 47th time while you're trying to make three different breakfasts, pack lunches, and figure out if your house insurance is about to get canceled because of climate change?
6
00:00:56.300 --> 00:01:05.900
And all you can say is, "Not right now." I'm Quinn Emmett, founder and host of Important Not Important. And I'm Claire Zuelke, writer and producer of the Evil Witches Substack newsletter.
7
00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:13.500
And we're here to talk about, generally, with tears often, parenting in these absolutely just crazy times.
8
00:01:13.840 --> 00:01:27.460
Every week, we're having honest conversations about raising kids while trying to stay somewhat sane, whether that's debating screen time- Explaining wildfire evacuations, and what fascism is, and why coups has a P in it...
9
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:40.200
surviving another parent-teacher conference and behavioral reflection forms- Or [chuckles] just trying to get everyone to eat something other than dinosaur-shaped nuggets, which, by the way, are delicious We're not here to tell you how to be the perfect parent.
10
00:01:40.580 --> 00:01:43.300
We're here to remind you that you're not alone in this chaos.
11
00:01:43.540 --> 00:01:52.680
Join us for our new show, Not Right Now, a show for parents who know that loving your kids and wanting to hide from them in the pantry can both be true at the same time.
12
00:01:52.980 --> 00:02:02.560
Because we're all just trying our best while googling, "Is this normal?" in our bathrooms at 3:00 AM. Not Right Now, new episodes every Thursday wherever you get your podcasts.
