Ep. 105: The Wiggles’ Emma Watkins & Bobbi Althoff

Shane and Alex chat about confronting mean kids at the park, a heart-to-heart with parents, Alex's contractor boyfriends, and whether it's appropriate to kiss people on the hand as a greeting (pandemic aside).

 

Emma Watkins (the Yellow Wiggle) joins for a second time to discuss her newly released Emma Series 3, working on a TV series amidst heavy lockdowns, The Wiggles 30th anniversary, her engagment, and how a hardworking couple in entertainment spend quality time together.

 

Bobbi Althoff (@bobbialthoff) talks TikTok (and her wild success on the app), alter egos, her birth and postpartum experience, and family dynamics.

 

Listener questions are answered in the mailbag segment, hitting topics like toddlers putting objects up their nose, signs from the universe, school systems, and more!
