Parenting Tips from “Lost” S3 E13, “The Man from Tallahassee”

Parenting Tips from “Lost” S3 E13, “The Man from Tallahassee”

Author: Parenting Roundabout August 26, 2025 Duration: 18:30
Each Tuesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. In this episode, Ben's manipulative skills and Locke's sad-sackery and poor decisions were on full display. The result: A submarine blew up. Oops!

Next Tuesday, we'll continue with season 3, episode 14, "Exposé." Tomorrow, we'll continue our discussion of a newer show, The Gilded Age.

Every week, Parenting Roundabout brings together the voices and experiences of writers Terri Mauro and Catherine Holecko. Think of it less as a manual and more as a conversation happening across the kitchen table, where the topics flow as freely as the coffee. They dive into the cultural moments, family dynamics, and daily dilemmas that actually fill your news feed and your thoughts, from the latest kids' TV show sparking debate to the subtle shifts in how we think about family and society. This isn't about perfect answers, but about navigating the messy, rewarding loop of raising kids alongside someone who gets it. In each episode of this podcast, you'll hear a natural, often humorous discussion that reflects what's really on parents' minds right now-the small complaints, the genuine obsessions, and the shared wisdom that comes from living it. Tune in for a dose of reality and camaraderie, a break from the noise that still manages to engage with the things that matter most in the whirlwind of family life.
