    Get ready to be BOTHERED. Julie Kim dives into a parenting debate that is blowing up online: are sleepovers actually safe anymore?

What follows is a chaotic breakdown of modern parenting anxiety, stranger danger in the digital age, and the absolute audacity of being asked to send your kid to someone's house to swim without ever meeting them. If you've ever questioned how much trust is too much when it comes to your kids, this episode will have you laughing, stressed, and very much BOTHERED.

    When A Stranger Attacks | EP055

    Get ready to be BOTHERED. Julie Kim is wearing a Vancouver Canucks jersey and talking about body checking, but not the kind that happens on the ice. This episode dives into shocking viral clips of adults elbowing and knocking over children in public spaces and why random acts of aggression seem to be everywhere online right now. Julie also shares two personal stories of being violently shoved by strangers in Vancouver, including one incident when she was seven months pregnant in a Whole Foods elevator area. From public transit platforms to crowded city spaces, Julie explores why these moments of random violence happen, why victims often freeze instead of fighting back, and why calling this behavior out publicly might be the only way to stop it. It is a raw, funny, and uncomfortable look at the strange tension of modern city life and the kind of everyday aggression that really bothers Julie.

    The Mental Load of Summer Camp | Julie Kim | Bothered Podcast #52

    Get ready to be BOTHERED. Summer camp registration is basically the Olympics for moms and this year Julie signed her kid up from a hot yoga class in Moncton while 900 parents sat ahead of her in a digital queue. From melting phones and downward dog stress to coordinating with other families, overnight camp FOMO and the invisible mental load that somehow always lands on women, Julie unpacks why moms are still the default camp coordinators even when men can run fantasy leagues and corporations. It is about camps, but it is really about resentment, partnership dynamics, outsourcing childhood, grocery strategy, rotisserie chicken survival meals and the quiet rage of doing everything because it is "just easier." If you have ever refreshed a registration page, carried the family calendar in your brain or wondered why you are the CEO of logistics at home, this one is for you.
