Episode Date: October 18, 2023

Michael Kosta breaks down the chaotic vote for Speaker of the House, Biden's trip to Israel, and the discovery of the world's hottest pepper with the help of Ronny Chieng. California has turned drugs into medicine, raisins into people, and now bees into...fish? Michael Kosta heads to the Golden State to talk to environmentalist, Serena Jepson, to find out why the state has classified bees as fish. And economist, pregnancy and parent data expert and bestselling author, Emily Oster, discusses how data can help parents feel more relaxed by focusing on the things within their control and realizing their shared experiences with other parents.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show, coming out every Thursday. We're going to be talking about the election, earnings calls. What are they talking about on these earnings calls? We're going to be talking about ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. I know you have a lot of options as far as podcasts go, but how many of them come out on Thursday. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. You're listening to Comedy Central. From New York City, the only city in America. It's the show that invented news.

This is the Daily Show with your host, Michael Costa. Welcome to the Daily Show. I'm Michael Costa. This is my second night hosting Two Days. I've already lasted longer in New York than Aaron Rogers. Now, we have a great show for you tonight, so let's get into the headlines. Let's kick things off with an update on the war in the Middle East. The situation is getting worse. The war is escalating.

Casualties are mounting, but there might be some help on the way. Breaking news right now, from the White House to the war zone. President Biden this evening is leaving Washington for Israel. With the conflict raging the risk great, it is highly unusual that the White House would publicly confirm a presidential trip. But Secretary of State Anthony Blinkett, after a seven-hour marathon meeting with Israel's prime minister overnight, made the announcement. On Wednesday, President Biden will visit Israel. And that visit is intended to try to cool things down, to try to ratchet down the tensions

somewhat in some way if he can succeed in addition to reaffirming U.S. solidarity with Israel. We'll see how, if there's any chance of this being successful. That's right. President Biden is facing this issue head on and going straight into a war zone. He's flying to Israel tonight, although he's 80 years old, so he did get to the airport two days ago. And I'm proud of Biden for putting himself in harm's way. Although let's be honest, Biden doing anything pretty much puts him in harm's way.

A rocket strike is dangerous, but so's a bicycle. And I bet he can cool things down there there, there, there, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, is thi, is thi, is thi's thi's thi's thiiiiiiiii.i's thi's thi.i's thi's thi, he can cool things down there, because if there's one thing Biden is good at, it's cooling things down, whether it's a war, heated rhetoric, or voter enthusiasm. But all jokes aside, I really am glad to have a president who's there, because it's comforting to have a leader who might actually de-escalate a situation. Donald Trump went to console hurricane victims, and by the time he was done, we were at war with Syria. So good luck to Biden and anyone who's trying to end the war. Anyway, let's move on to the biggest cluster of F. Outside of the Middle East, the

U.S. Congress. Two weeks ago, the House was thrown into chaos by Matt Gates, Florida Republican, and what happens when you photocopy Matthew McConaughey too many times. He staged a coup against Kevin McCarthy, Speaker of the House, and what happens when you photocopy John Slattery too many times? And after that, everyone said the Republicans were too divided to elect a new speaker, and it turns out, everyone was right. Chaos on Capitol Hill, the Republican House dysfunction continues as the fight for a new Speaker of the House continues to sputter.

Congressman Jim Jordan of Ohio did not even come close to clenching the speakership. He failed rather ignominiously to win the gavel on the first ballot. Jim Jordan has 20 Republicans who decided to vote for someone other than him. In a few cases, they voted for a guy who isn't even in Congress anymore. Jordan! That's right. A big loss today for Jim Jordan, Ohio representative, and what you get when you photocopy your grandfather's toe too many times. So as of now it's been two weeks of

Republicans arguing with each other and they still haven't been able to agree on a new speaker which is a big deal. The speaker of the house is the person responsible for speaking in the house so if they don't have one then nobody is speaking and it's just so quiet in there and Congress can't do anything until they figure this out. They can't pass laws, they can't send foreign aid to Ukraine, and they can't impeach Hunter Biden's penis. Right now, Congress is basically Mitch McConnell, totally frozen, and no one knows how to fix it. It's okay to show that because he said he's fine. And finally, let's talk about hotness and not the kind you're seen on your screen right

now. I'm talking about the food in your mouth kind. Finally, the new hottest pepper in the world. The popular YouTube show Hot One surprised Mad Pepper Scientist Ed Curry with a visit from the Guinness World Records. According to them, the title now belongs to his creation called Pepper X. The heat of a pepper is measured in Scoville. So, for example, a jalapeno is 5,000 Scoville units. Pepper spray is usually 1.6 million and Bear Spray advertises that 2.2 million. But as for Pepper X, 2.693 million Scoville heat units.

I was feeling the heat for three and a half hours. Then the cramps came. Cramps. Wow. That's a hell of a pepper that gives a man a period. By the way, is Pepper X the most creative name they could have come up with? How do you look at this thing and not go with Satan's nut sack?

Seriously though, I love this story because this is what makes humans so great. We're always striving to break barriers that we don't need to break or that we even knew existed. We're always trying to dive a little bit higher, build a little bit taller and devastate our sphincters a little bit harder. For more on this new pepper, we go live to the laboratory it came from with our very own Ronnie Chang. Ronnie, this is pretty impressive.

Ronnie, this is pretty impressive. Oh, yeah, wow, this is pretty impressive. Oh yeah, wow, this is so impressive. What a great use of science. Our grandparents land on the moon, but we made food harder to eat. Okay, I'm not saying it's the biggest deal ever, but I thought it was a nice accomplishment. Yeah, for white people maybe. I'm from Malaysia, okay? I've been eating spicy food since I was a baby.

Yo, my mom had five alarm breast milk. Her nipples were basically saracha nozzles, okay? I eat so much spicy food, my driver's license has three peppers on it, like a P.F Chang's menu. And that's why I never invite you to dinner, Costa, because I know you can't handle the heat and because I don't like you. First of all, ouch. And secondly, I don't care how much spicy food you've eaten.

This pepper is hotter than bear spray. Yeah, OK, maybe for pussy American bears a flinch. You give this to a panda bear? He'd be like, why am I eating this lame-ass pepper where I could be busy not having sex. Come on. Dude, this pepper is 2.7 million Scoville units. than'uil units. That's like, that's like 10 billion dipshit units. Or some other scale I also just made up. It's all marketing, Costa. This is why you're 5 million ZZAR units, which is a measurement of how much I don't want to have dinner with you in case you're wondering. And that's the highest you can't

go. Ronnie, you're just getting mad at me because maybe a white guy invented a pepper that you can't handle. Oh, please. You think I'm scared of this pepper? I will rub this on my eyeballs and eat it right now. Oh, oh, oh, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. This counts as us having dinner together, by the way. No it doesn't. This pepper ain't shit. Ronnie.

Ronnie, no big deal. Ronnie, Ronnie, you're on fire. No, no, that's on something else. This pepper tastes great. Look, I'll eat another one. Ronnie, don't eat it. Ronnie, I do not eat another. Ronnie, Ronnie, yonie. Costa, relax, okay? This always happens when I eat something delicious. I'm just gonna go over here right now.

Hey, do you have any water? Not because of spice, my float is just dry. I'm sure he's okay. Ronnie Chang, everyone. When we come back, I'll tell you why bees are fish, so don't go away. Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show, it's going to be coming out every Thursday. So exciting. You'll be saying to yourself, TGID, thank God it's Thursday. We're going to be talking about all the things that hopefully

obsess you in the same way that they obsess me. The election. Economics. Earnings calls. What are they talking about on these earnings calls? We're going to be talking about ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. And I know that I listed that fourth but in importance it's probably second. I know you have a lot of options as far as podcasts go but how many of them come out on Thursday I mean talk about innovative. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. Welcome back to the daily show. We all love bending the law, whether it's going five miles over the speed limit or adding five children to your tax return.

But I found an organization that was bending the law, whether it's going five miles over the speed limit or adding five extra children to your tax return. But I found an organization that was bending the law for good. Check it out. California has successfully turned drugs into medicine and raisins into people, but this time they've gone too far. Bees are now considered fish. Bumblebees, fish in the state of California. What the fuck is California up to now? To find out, I went to meet environmentalists

Serena Jepson, who, with the conservationist group, the Zercy Society, petitioned the state to turn bees into fish. Serena, are bees fish? No. Bees are not fish. Okay, few. I was like so almost certain that they weren't. You don't fish for a bee. You bee for a bee, right? Bees are not fish, but the California legislature decades ago defined fish to include several different animals, including invertebrates. And bees are unquestionably a type of invertebrate. So according to California state law bees are fish. You just

said that bees are fish and also bees are fish. Do I look dumb to you? No. We've just utilized the definitions under the California Endangered Species Act to seek protection for four species of bumble bees that are close to extinction. And to make things even more confusing only some the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they. they. they's they's they's they's theyees theyeses are theypes.a they's they.a theyes are they's they's they's they's the the the the the four species of bumblebees that are close to extinction. And to make things even more confusing, only some bees are now fish. Bombas oxen and talus, the western bumblebee. The bombas oxen and tallus? Yeah, that's the western bumblebee. Franklin's bumblebee, the suckly cuckoo bumblebee.

We can't really one that occurs here. That's Crutches Bumblebee. What's that one called them, I'm sorry? Crutch. Bumbleby crotch. Oh my god, I had that in college. Does it really affect my life that the borealis, oxytalist, cock-eyed bumblebee is gone? If we let enough species to start seeing problems with pollination of crops and pollination of our native ecosystems. So calling bees an endangered fish is a way to protect them under California law, problem solved, right? I don't think bees are fish. I knew it. I just don't think that's the

case. Next thing you're going to tell me that the tomato is a fruit. As a member of the Almond alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance alliance the a the a the a the the the the the the the thionionionion. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I'm tho thi, I'm th. I'm th. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I to to to to to to to to th. I, I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I, I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I'm th. I'm thi. I'm to. I'm tttttttttttttell tttell tttell the the tell to the to the the the to the the case. Next thing you're going to tell me that the tomato is a fruit. As a member of the Almond Alliance of California, Stuart Wolf sued along with agriculture and pesticide groups to exclude bees from the endangered species act because protecting these bees would hit him right in the nuts. Whenever you have more risk and you have the possibility of more regulation then ultimately you have higher costs. There'll be more insects and you have the possibility of more regulation, then ultimately you have higher costs. There'll be more insects and there'll be more protections. It will simply grow from here.

I mean, what are they going to protect all in vertebraes? Slugs, worms, bears? When does it stop? And you can't just go changing the names of stuff, even if it benefits you, right? Right? I'm okay with this whole nut juice being called milk, but calling a bee a fish feels pretty California to me. I can't argue with that.

Yeah. Yeah. Is it milk? Milk? Is an almond milk? Milk? Well, you're talking to an almond grower, and so I believe almond milk there is such a thing. Others, like dairymen, believe it has to come from a mammal. But that, again, will likely be figured out in the courts. In the end, the fate of the bees was decided with the help of a much more resilient and dangerous species. Law students Sam Joyce and Professor Matt Sanders at Stanford's environmental law. bees was decided with the help of a much more resilient and dangerous species. Lawyers.

Law students Sam Joyce and Professor Matt Sanders at Stanford's Environmental Law Clinic successfully lawyers the bees into fish. And I had a pretty good idea why. Let's be honest here. Who's making the big bucks? Is it the lawyers? We represent our clients on a pro bono basis. Pro bono, what's that mean? For free. For free.

I've actually been paying money to be here. You actually paid money to call bees fish. And this is the problem with today's campuses and universities. So these suckers fought a legal battle to save the bees just because they love the environment? Okay, but how did they pull that off? Explain to me how the f-feebs are fish. The California Fish and Game Code, Section 45, defines fish, and it says that a fish is a wildfish, or a crustacean, or a mollusk,k or an invertebrate or an amphibian.

Okay. Bees are invertebrates, so bees fall within the definition of fish in this law. This is like Christians, you know, finding a way to have sex before they're married, you know, hand stuff or whatever. This is a legal loophole, right? Come on. If anything, the loophole here is trying to play on the definitions or the terms within the Endangered Species Act and say, sorry, this can cover plants, it can cover other animals, but it can't cover insects.

That sounds like a loophole. I guess with legal advice, you really get what you pay for. And with that, I'd studied the issue from almost every angle except the most important one. Okay, so I think I get it. It doesn't matter if bees or fish or bees. Those are just labels. And everything deserves a right to exist and to pollinate and to reproduce and be happy. That's what this is about. More or less, yes.

I think I get it. So thank you. Thank you. Okay. Thank you. Sorry. Um, one more thing. So are bees fish?

No. And we come back, Economist Emily Auster will explain that data to make you a better parent, don't go away. Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show, it's going to be coming out every Thursday. So exciting, you'll be saying to yourself, TGID, thank God it's Thursday. we're going to be talking about all the things that hopefully obsess you in the same way that they obsess me. The election. Economics. Earnings calls. What are they talking about on these earnings calls? We're going to be talking about ingredient-to-bread

ratio on sandwiches. And I know that I listed that fourth but in importance it's probably second. I know you have a lot of options as far as podcasts go but how many of them come out on Thursday. I mean talk about innovative. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. Welcome back to the Daily Show. My guest tonight is an economist at Brown University, an author of several books on data-driven parenting. Please welcome Emily Oster. All right. Exciting, huh?

I'm excited. Hello. And parenting. And babies. And babies. All right. Exciting, huh? And parenting.

And babies. Yeah, I mean what what is parent data mean? There's data on parents? Yes, there is data on parents and I am a firm believer that data is the key to making your parenting easier and happier and more relaxed. Are you very relaxed? Oh right now, very relaxed? But you've actually made our family more relaxed? to be relaxed? to right now, very relaxed. Very relaxed. But you've actually made our family more relaxed, because some of the data, some clip somewhere. Might have even been in this book, Expecting Better,

which maybe 10-year anniversary now, this book? Wow, amazing. I'm paraphrasing. But it was, there's two preschools or two daycares. They're both of equal credible value. Which one should I go to as a parent? And your answer was go to the one that's closest to your house. Yeah. So for me, that's really a mnematic of what I think is hard and often overthought

about parenting is we have this idea that there's a right way to do it. There's a correct daycare and you can really get down the rabbit hole well these teachers have this qualifications and this bad and in the end of the day there are a lot of right ways to do this. Yeah. And those kind of considerations are most of the time so much less than what works for your family and what makes you happy and usually what makes th th th to th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th the th th th th th the th th th thus thus the thus thus thus thus thus thus the the thus the the the thus. thus. the. the. the.

And thateate is thateateateateateateateateateateateateateateateateateate. And tis. And theatea. And the. And th less. So that's why you should go to the one or closer. Our daycare doesn't have room for a stroller. So I push the stroller there. Then I fold the stroller up and I lock it to a telephone pole outside. And then my wife, who picks up the kid, has to unlock the stroll. I mean, this is like, and I'm a celebrity, you know what I mean? This is what it's like in New York City, but data parenting is nice.

It's, I like the term, it sounds good. But when my three-year-old is punching me in the face on Father's Day, for the three times that day, and I'm about to lose it, I'm not thinking about data. So there are some problems for which data isn't necessarily going to fix to fix to fix to fix to fix to fix to fix to fix to fix to fix to fix to to to to to to to the to to to to the the to there are some problems. There are some problems for which data isn't necessarily going to fix the problem. But I think there's another piece of data in parenting and I think this is really true that like we can use data to feel less alone. And that's like part of, parenting's hard, right? Your kids hit you in the face, it's painful. And it hurts. Yeah, it's painful. It doesn't matter how old they are. But what the data. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't.

And 100% of them hit their dad. And so you're not alone, because 100% of other people

were also hit on Father's Day. And in some sense, I think that that tells us that we're doing OK. That there's nothing wrong with your kid. They just hit sometimes. Where is this data coming from? the data comes from a lot of the, yeah. Okay, survey. So data comes from a lot of places. Actually, when I teach an economist, they teach a brown, one of the big things I teach people is like where does data come from?

And the answer is it comes from surveys. We ask people and data has its limitations. We don't always ask the most representative set get us closest to causality, but the fundamental answer is we get data on people by asking people about their behaviors and what they do and by collecting information on how their kids do. Let's start with pregnant women. Are we in a time where there's more fear associated with eating sushi, drinking alcohol, or is it always been this fear? And here comes Professor Auster to offer these guidelines that help us.

I mean, are you a product of there being an excess amount of fear now? Fundamentally, yes. I mean, I think, you know, if you look at the broad swath of history, you know, certainly there are medieval times, we were not concerned about sushi. That wasn't like the primary worry. I would not eat sushi in the medieval times. The plague and then sushi was low on the list. But I do think in the last you know 15, 20, maybe 30 years there has become this culture of kind of achievement in parenting and the

idea that you have to do it right. And I think some of that comes from demographic shifts from the fact that people are parenting older, that maybe they've done more and so you get into an idea that like there's a right way to do this, I'm gonna achieve this, I'm gonna just kill this pregnancy, I'm gonna do all this stuff and I'm gonna get it right. And of course when you have the book is about saying, hey, let's focus on the stuff that's important and not think so much about the things that are less important, that are just causing you to be anxious and not get to eat delicious fish. Well, because if you're creating this world

where everything has to be perfect, and that invariably something will think there's a stress piece and then there's a guilt piece. There's a feeling of like if anything goes wrong it's because of something you did. And it's hard to recognize that sometimes things go wrong for reasons that are not something we did but that's actually pretty important thing to recognize if you want to be able to move forward. I did a little bit of my own data research. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Like Kyrie Irving. Because it was driving me crazy during both my wife's pregnancies how every doctor, everyone we said was like, you can't eat a deli meat. Don't eat a turkey sandwich. You can't eat because of Listeria.

This was the big thing. And I know you talk about Listeria in here. But so I said, okay, I'm curious. How many pregnant women in the United States even got Listeria last year and according to Google I don't know if Google is a reputable source it says 200 pregnant women last year got Listeria. 200,000 pregnant women got in a car sock so I'm thinking by that standard they should be saying pregnant women don't get in a car it's considerably worse am I a amazing parenting data science in this point now?

But it speaks to like the fear and trying to make some sense of it. So I think I want to separate a little bit. There's a lot to unpack. Yeah, I mean, a lot to unpack in your analysis. I mean, I think one thing that is that is true is that many of the risks that we worry about are very small, and I use the car accident risk very often because I think it's an example of a risk that we're taking all the time and for good reason. I wouldn't tell people not to get in a car, but just to recognize life contains a background level of risk.

Yeah. When we talk about something like Listeria, and you want to be careful be careful be careful to be careful the probably want to avoid, raw milk, soft cheeses being a good example, because it is a relatively small thing to avoid that and it is more common that list theories, isn't it? It's easy to skip that. It's easy to skip that. But as we think about things that are harder to skip, you do want to get into like, well actually, is this really an important risk relative to many of the other risks I'm taking every day? Like getting in a car. Yeah. Um, I didn't realize how much my parents parenting me was going to turn me, excuse me. I thought I would parent differently. Better. I had great parents, but I thought I would do things differently.

I had great parents, but I thought I would do things differently. Are we just doomed? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is there? Is their? Is their? Is th? Is thi? Is thi? Is thi? I? I? I? I? I thi? I thi? I thi? I thi? I thi? I thi? I thi? I thi?

Is thi. Is thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi? I thi? I thought I would do things differently. Am I, are we just doomed? Is there data on this? Okay, there is data on some, there are some things you probably do do differently. And so, and sometimes because we've advanced our data, you know, you probably put your baby to sleep on their back and your parents probably put you to sleep on your stomach because we learn more about data. Yes. We can discuss that that that that that that that that that th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. thi, thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, is is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, their is, their is, their, their, th.

But I think it is of course true that we're all products of our own parenting, but also that many of the things our parents did are

great. And in the end, there's a lot of right ways to do this. I think we always want to like move away from our parents, but you're probably not. You're an economist. Your husband's an economist. Are your kids like, don't hit your brother, but what's the data on that, mom? My kids could not be less interested in economics or my parenting work. It's one of the great things about being a parenting expert is that you can say that a lot at home. Like, oh, I'm a parenting, but they don't think that at all.

Right. At all. Your new book. It's coming out. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. to. to. to. to. It's to. It's to. It's to. It's to. It's to. It's to. It's to. It's to. thi. It's thi. thi. all. Your new book it's coming out you can pre-order it. What what is your new book about? The new book is called The Unexpected and it is about navigating pregnancy after complications so for about 50% of pregnancies they end with in a complication, a loss or pre-eclimsy or something and the book is really an attempt to help people work through in a later pregnancy, how to avoid those complications, what you can do about them, and how to navigate conversations with your provider. So that's the idea. Okay, great.

One of the things I read that you said that I really enjoyed was, studies say, studies sau say, studies say, studies say, about? I do because studies always show. So when people tell me this study, a studies, studies show, studies always show, studies show everything. Everything can be shown in a study. And the question is often, what does the bulk of the evidence say? Because when we look at most of the problems in this book, in all of the space of pregnancy and there's always many different pieces of evidence, which the evidence, and the evidence, and the evidence, and the evidence, and the evidence, and the the evidence, and the the the the the th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and thi, and the thi, and they, and they, and they, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and tho, and tho, and tho, and the, and the, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, theeeeean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, theanan, the comes up and they say you know well this one study said that I

want to be like well is that the only study we have and it almost never is. I mean you can find anything on the internet. Yes. It's like you can't Google and find your support. So is how can parents the kids crying or you got punched in the face on Father's Day or you can't eat deli meats? Where where where where where where where where where where where where where where where where where where where? to to to the the to the the the to the the the the the the the the the their. their. their. their. their. their. to their. to to their. their. the the their. to to to to their. their. their. their.

I'm the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the face on Father's Day or you can't eat deli meats. Where do we go? So I would like people to go to parent data.org which is which is the website where we put together sort of the whole broad range of the stuff I've written in these books and then in my newsletter about what the data says about many of these kind of questions and I think it's part of a general effort to basically when you wake up in the middle of the night and you're like why is my kids poop this color? Is that an okay color that the website will

be like here's a little color-coded graph of the appropriate colors and you can look and then you be like oh that's a fine color green is cool I'm gonna go back to sleep all the any data on vasectomies? Vasectomies are amazing options. Vesectomies are a great form of birth control, and they're an outpatient procedure. You just need a little ice pack down there, and it works great. So it's worth considering.
