I Brought my Boyfriend Home- a fail.

Alex Cooper
About this episode

Let’s take a walk down memory lane…vodka in water bottles, clip in hair extensions and hook ups in your childhood home. Smells like the biggest drinking night of the year – aka blackout Wednesday. STORYTIME! Big Al has experienced a Blackout Wednesday (or two) … let's expose a few more of Father Cooper’s hometown horror stories. How do you think it went the first time she brought Mr. Sexy Zoom Man home to meet her family? (Spoiler alert: a complete disaster). Daddy Gang, you know the drill...we need to sprinkle in a bit of health and wellness. Alex ends the episode by having a conversation with clinical psychologist Dr. Suzanne Wallach and the two discuss a variety of tactics anyone (even if you aren’t in therapy) can implement when it comes to difficult family situations during the holidays. Dr. Wallach addresses topics ranging from boundary setting to disordered eating and grief. Enjoy! This episode includes discussion of eating disorders. Please keep this in mind when deciding if, how and when you’ll listen. For resources on these topics, visit spotify.com/resources.
