Parenting Tips from “A Gentleman in Moscow” E1, “A Master of Circumstance”

Welcome to a new and improved Parenting Roundabout podcast! About a year after our last reinvention, we're switching things up again. As parents and parenting writers, we can’t help but see everything through a parenting lens. But as our kids have become adults, we find ourselves more interested in getting caught up on movies and streaming than on going over the same parenting topics over and over.So since we’re pretty sure we can find parenting wisdom anywhere, we’re going to talk about what we’re watching, what we thought about it, and maybe what we can learn from it, if only what not to do.On Tuesdays, we’ll share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property. We’re kicking it off with A Gentleman in Moscow, a limited series on Paramount+ that premiered at the end of March. It's based, pretty faithfully so far, on a 2016 book of the same name by Amor Towles, which Catherine loved but Terri has not read. And it stars Ewan McGregor, who is fully inhabiting the titular gentleman. He's not a parent, but he's destined to take on a paternal role as the series continues. Mentioned: An episode of the Godsplaining podcast on the novel.Next Tuesday, we'll discuss the second episode of the series, "An Invitation." We'll be back tomorrow with a discussion of an older property. We're kicking it off with Lost, which premiered almost 20 years ago. And on Thursday, we'll bring you a roundup with some of our favorite segments from our recent Weekly Roundup format.
