Opening & ending music: Southern Love by Tencher Music

In this episode, Justin and his wife, Lisa, take over with one of their "car conversations." The two of them discuss the Disney shows their son Angus watches (usually involving Mickey Mouse and Co.), and the lack of parental figures, especially mothers. The talk about the poor representation that is there, how that reflects on motherhood, and what messages that sends to children and parents alike. On a brighter note, they discuss good parental representation in the show, "Bluey" and what it means for the two of them.
