15. Why Do Kids Sleep Sideways? (And Other Ways I’m Losing)

Why Do Kids Sleep Sideways? (The Bed Takeover Rant) I’m back. I’m Chris Black, and you’re listening to the Cry Harder Podcast. We are hitting Episode 15 with a question that every parent has asked at 3:00 AM while clinging to the edge of the mattress: Why do small children sleep horizontally? I’m diving into the "sideways sleeper" phenomenon and how my daughter has officially mastered the art of knocking me off my own bed. We’re also getting into the great tipping debate of 2024. After last week's episode, TikTok is divided—you’re either a 25%-or-more tipper or you don’t tip at all. Where did the 20%ers go? In this episode:The Legend of Bob Dylan: I’m talking about the reality of seeing an icon live. Let’s be honest: he’s old and the voice isn't what it used to be—but is that even the point? Sometimes you go for the experience and the "I was there" factor, not for a phenomenal vocal performance.The "Vrabel Situation": Breaking down the latest photos and headlines involving Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini.Philly Sports Round-Up: The Flyers are looking solid, and the Sixers just grabbed a massive win in Boston. Plus, my thoughts on VJ Edgecombe and why the Eagles’ draft of Michai Lemon has my daughter Bexley very confused (she’s officially on the record: she doesn’t like lemons).Podcast Updates: I’ve officially launched three new playlists to help you find the content you want: Long Form, Shorts, and the CryHarderIRL series.The Week in Review: A quick recap of my time at the Rodeo and a look ahead to Bexley’s upcoming party.Finance Tip of the Week: Can you actually become a millionaire by investing just $10 a day in Bitcoin? I’m looking into whether this "friend of a friend" success story actually holds water.Outro:If your life wasn’t a total disaster this week, don’t worry—there’s always next Saturday.
