  • The Magic Hour For Veggies (And Why Dessert Bribes Backfire)

    The Magic Hour For Veggies (And Why Dessert Bribes Backfire)
    29 Oct 2026
    Pork tenderloin is on the menu, and nobody’s happy about it. On this episode of “The Parent Chat,” Dylan Dreyer sits down with her boys to plan the week’s meals, and the “too much meat” protests start immediately. Most parents know the scene: kids who declare they hate dinner before taking a bite, a flood of snack requests the moment they walk through the door after school, and a dessert bribe that never fails. Dylan wants to know whether she’s getting any of it right. So she calls in Malina Malkani, a pediatric dietitian and mother of three, for the first of a two-part special. They dig into why picky eating is so common, what actually helps kids try new foods, and how to handle snacks and dessert without turning dinner into a nightly standoff.

    Am I Ruining My Kids When I Yell?
    22 Oct 2026
    It’s 5:49 p.m. The kids are bouncing off the walls, nobody wants what’s on their plate, someone’s crying (maybe you), and you can feel the fuse burning down. Then it happens: you yell. If that’s your house most nights, you’re in good company. On this episode of The Parent Chat, Dylan Dreyer takes on the end-of-day meltdown, the parent kind. Is it normal to lose it? Why does it always seem to happen at the same time of day? And is all that yelling actually hurting your kids? Joining her is psychiatrist, author and NBC News commentator Dr. Saumya Dave, who explains what’s really happening when parents hit their breaking point, the early warning signs to watch for, and how to repair things after you’ve said something you wish you could take back. Hit play before tonight’s witching hour. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
