Episode 238: Birth Order: Is that a Thing?

18th January 2018

Biz and Theresa wonder if there is anything to birth order as a determining factor in our personalities or if it’s basically as reliable as astrological horoscopes? Does being the second child mean we shouldn’t leave the house today or make new investments? Yes, yes, it does. Actually, we discover something terrible…birth order may have nothing to do with our children or how we treat our children and the expectations we have…that may be all us! AGHHHHHH!! Plus, Biz returns from the mountains and Theresa plays pretend.
