45: Excessive Force pt.3: AITA

Stories from the Reddit AITA page. The challenge of being a new mom with a clueless new father. A family that respects their daughters wishes. A family prank that went too far. And disappointing husbands that could do more to support their spouse. A series of funny Reddit stories about people who might have taken it a little too far. Excessive force AITA!

Grant Thomas and Maia Warner take you on a no-seatbelt kind of ride through the hilarious highs and humbling lows of teaching, teenage chaos, and the unpredictable world of state tournaments. What starts as a look ahead to the Colorado State speech and debate showdown quickly unravels into real talk about the pressure students face, the sting of slipping up, and what happens when a forgotten script meets real-world consequences. Along the way, you'll hear snarky side notes about snoring roommates, wedding flower girl drama, and parenting debates that hit a little too close to home. Add in some wild campus pranks, legendary school rivalries, and sharp reflections on teacher accountability and personal growth, and you've got an episode that’s equal parts ridiculous and real. If you’re here for the laughs, the lessons, or just need to feel better about your own messy life, this one’s got it all—colorful commentary included.
