This summer we've curated your Baby Bubble playlist with a healthy dose of culture-savvy conversation parents actually want - Parenting Out Loud. 

The school holidays are upon us and Monz, Amelia & Stacey are back to distract you with some Millennial core memories, a flashback to Shania Twain and a playlist that will lift your mood.

On the show this week:

• Genius or completely unhinged? Do our kids need ‘Social Media Prep School’? We've got thoughts.
• And, are you holding onto a room full of stuff to hand down to your kids? How A$AP Rocky & Rihanna and Sarah Jessica Parker are rebranding your clutter or as we like to call it 'love junk'. 
• Plus, the childcare conversation we need to have & one woman's controversial solution.

And our recommendations:

🎵 Stacey wants you to listen to her playlist Girly Pop Songs That Make Me Wanna Break A Door Down on Spotify

🎧 Amelia is recommending Greeking Out by National Geographic

🍪 And Monz has an iconic hack for parents of hungry goblin children: The Offering 

You can read the TGA's statement on pregnancy and paracetamol here.
