Dr. Lisa Damour: Two Words That Will Help Every Parent

The fellas welcome renowned clinical psychologist Dr. Lisa Damour, PhD, to explore the emotional complexities of adolescence. Dr. Damour shares her experience consulting on Pixar’s *Inside Out 2*, where she helped shape the portrayal of new emotions like Anxiety, Embarrassment, Envy, and Ennui as 13-year-old Riley navigates her teenage years. Then, Jon breaks out his homework and dives into Dr. Damour’s acclaimed books—*Untangled*, *Under Pressure*, and *The Emotional Lives of Teenagers*—which offer invaluable guidance for parents raising adolescents . She also discusses the intriguing Radish/Cookie experiment, shedding light on the importance of self-control and emotional regulation in teens.

Charles Kelley: "I'm A Little More Country Club"

Dig coffee and vinyl? Help us out by taking this very short survey for a chance to win both! The fellas finally wrangled Charles Kelley! We kicked things off with his legendary brag sheet—apparently, they stopped counting at 80 bullet points! As one-third of Grammy-winning country trio Lady A, you definitely know "Need You Now" (and so does AC radio, judging by how often Charles hears it instead of his own new solo single). But it's not all chart-toppers! We delve into Charles's unique vocal warm-ups (it basically involves singing that song's intro), his declaration that he's "accomplished everything" he needed to with drinking, and how a surprisingly romantic night led to a surprise baby number two (he hilariously takes the blame!). Plus, that "not a big deal" band name change? Turns out, it was quite the story. Sign up for our action-packed newsletter: http://dadville.substack.com Thanks to our sponsors!
