Eighth Grade (with Pat)

from Folks on Film

This was first broadcast on February 2nd, 2025 on 94.9 MainFM as part of the Sunday Midday Show. In this episode of the show, host Sam and his guest Pat (California-based personal trainer and dad-fluencer) have watched Eighth Grade (so you don't have to). Taking the depiction of the dad in the film as their jumping off point, they talk about the cultural differences between Australian and the USA, when it's okay to not respect our kids' privacy, and giving our kids the right messages about sex and intimacy. Don't come expecting definitive answers or paths to parenting greatness. This is just two ordinary, imperfect dads getting real and having a chat. It should be emotional.
