Oh, Baby: Meet TV Writer Hallie Cantor's Debut Novel

It's time to meet Emmy-nominated TV writer Hallie Cantor and celebrate her debut novel Like This, But Funnier! We are so excited to share this hilarious and insightful conversation about the process of writing a book, forging your own career path, and deciding whether to become a parent.
- -
ABOUT THE BOOK: TV writer Caroline Neumann is thirty-four and mired in professional envy and self-hatred. Even Harry, her usually supportive therapist husband, thinks it’s time for her to press pause on her career ambitions and focus on getting pregnant, despite Caroline’s serious ambivalence about having children.
When Caroline accidentally stumbles on Harry’s patient session notes and offhandedly mentions what she finds in a meeting with a producer, the momentum of Hollywood takes over. Before she knows it—and unbeknownst to Harry—Caroline finds herself pitching a TV show about the deepest, darkest secrets of her husband’s favorite patient, a woman known to Caroline only as the Teacher.
Amid the indignities of the Hollywood development process, Caroline must balance her burning desire for professional validation against her own morality and the health of her marriage. And when Caroline forms a real-life relationship with Teacher herself, the lines between art and life begin to blur further, shaking up Caroline’s understanding of what it means to be the “likeable female protagonist” of her own life.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Hallie Cantor is an Emmy-nominated television writer for shows including Arrested Development, Lady Dynamite!, Dollface, and Inside Amy Schumer. Her work has been published in The New Yorker’s Shouts & Murmurs, New York magazine, NPR’s This American Life, and the humor anthology Notes From the Bathroom Line. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, who is—yes—a therapist. Like This, But Funnier is her debut novel.

Oh, Baby: We Tried Raising Tamagotchis (Millennial Nostalgia Meets Child-Free Chaos)

"It's either really happy or dead...and I don't know which."
 
Shoutout to all the human parents out there. When were you gonna tell us how hard this s*** is?!
In this episode, our producers surprise us with our very own Tamagotchi babies to raise. We get to experience the highs and lows of parenting, from naming our baby to questioning every life choice we've ever made. Plus, "getting ghosted" takes on a whole new meaning (...sorry David).
 
Whether you were a devoted Tamagotchi parent in the 90s or someone who definitely forgot to feed it (RIP ❤️), this episode will take you back...and make you very grateful your “baby” doesn’t beep at you anymore.
🎧 If you love nostalgic throwbacks, chaotic experiments, and child-free perspectives on “parenting,” this one’s for you.
