Ugly babies, killer whales and beetroot jelly

This week's episode is answering more of 'what's the strangest thing your kid has done', with parent news and a few funny parent side tangents!

Kicking off with yays and nays, Sam & Bec catch up on their week to start. Bec's yaying the sick cuddly cuddles (but not the sick obviously!), while naying the fact that they spent a whole day at the zoo with a friend and barely got a good conversation in thanks to the interruptions.

Sam is naying the sick (even though he didn't clean up ANYTHING!) while yaying the hilarious story of sharing killer whale videos with the 6yo and the confusion of what was happening to the seal...

Parent news is up next, with two stories from Japan! We've got a baby store photo that has not aged well, and looks more like a baby store of horrors! And then the Japanese government's decision to start a dating app to address declining birth rates.

We head to the news archives for a story from years ago of parents who messed up big time - crossing a barrier to put a kid in a coffin for a photo, and knocking it over and breaking it. Unfortunately not the only story like this, with lots of artworks and historic artifact victims!

Then we share more answers to the question: 'What's the strangest thing you've witnessed your child do?' With kids licking shed, playing with bird guts, eating beetroot with ice cream and issuing threats to strangers.
