Why Mommy Drinks

Betsy Stover talks with fellow parents about what their kids did that broke them and maybe even drove them to drink. Guests range from fellow comedians, to Hollywood directors, to Olympic athletes. There’s no advice and no judgement; just wild stories from the trenches of parenthood, and a reminder that we are all doing the best we can.
