Ep 7: Family Photos, Teen Mustaches & Public Speakerphone Rage
from Hold My Baby · host Alex Alvarez, Erik Rivera, Kira Soltanovich
This episode starts with denim debates and pajama pants denial, spirals into family photos we *swore* we’d never take, and somehow ends with public speakerphone etiquette, airplane seating warfare, and mustache-based childhood trauma. Erik and Kira unpack: * Pajama pants disguised as “real clothes” * Family portraits, matching pajamas & becoming the parents you mocked * Growing up without photos and why it hits later * Old-school parenting discipline (the *look*, the whisper, the dressing room) * Teen mustaches, shaving politics & rites of passage * Puberty, grooming, and projecting your childhood onto your kids * Speakerphone psychopaths in public * Comedy Store parking lot chaos * Exit-row airplane survival strategies (again, because people are animals) If you’ve ever said *“I used to make fun of those parents… and now I am them,”* welcome home.---If this episode made you laugh, cringe, or rethink that outfit your kid is wearing right now: 👍 Like the episode 💬 Comment with the parenting habit you *used* to judge 🔔 Subscribe so we can keep oversharing responsibly 📤 Share this with someone who uses speakerphone in public We’re not perfect parents.
