  • Don't Touch Me While I'm Cooking (Or Maybe Ever?)
    This week, Claire and Quinn tackle the brutal summer heat while diving into the complexities of maintaining a relationship with your co-parent. Finding couple time when everyone just wants to retreat to their separate corners is an eternal struggle, especially when you're balancing getting body-shamed by your own children and finding out your kid has been playing inappropriate games online.-----------Have feedback or questions?

  • Take The Waters
    This week, Quinn returns from an epic family trip to Alaska with stories of whales, glaciers, and kids who packed two socks for a week-long adventure. But as always, the conversation happens when they get home: dealing with post-vacation lows, kids who think bobbleheads grow on trees, and the daily mental load of parenting through everything else. Trigger Warning: This episode includes candid discussions about thoughts of escape, mental health struggles, and parental overwhelm.

  • How Low Is Your Bar For Childcare?
    This week, Quinn and Claire are diving into the ever-evolving world of childcare, from the brutal economics of quality care to the desperate measures parents take just to keep working. They explore how childcare standards change from first kid (extensive vetting) to third kid (you haven't murdered recently), the impossible summer camp lottery system, and why sometimes a random college student willing to be a "play robot" is an essential worker.-----------Have feedback or questions?

  • Why Does Disney Always Kill the Moms?
    This week, Claire and Quinn welcome screenwriter and director Chris Winterbauer (Moonshot, What Went Wrong podcast) to chat about movies! They cover what they let their kids watch, what they force them to watch, and which movies scarred them for life. Featuring passionate defenses of Dumb and Dumber, the death of Hollywood Video, hot takes on Space Balls and Star Wars, taking kids to the movie theatre, and why the Simpsons is basically Sesame Street compared to YouTube.-----------Have feedback or questions?

About Not Right Now

Not Right Now is a podcast for parents navigating the impossible task of raising kids while *gestures wildly at everything*. Join Quinn Emmett (Important Not Important) and Claire Zulkey (Evil Witches) for honest conversations about parenting in an era of climate change, artificial intelligence, social media anxiety, all while trying to get your kid to just please put on their shoes. From discussing how to talk to kids about the news without traumatizing them (or yourself), to debating the right age for a phone, to admitting that sometimes the best parenting happens when you're hiding in the pantry eating handfuls of trail mix for dinner- Quinn and Claire bring humor, empathy, and real talk to the wild adventure of raising tiny humans in these chaotic times. Because being a good parent doesn't mean having all the answers - it means figuring it out together, one "not right now" at a time. New episodes every Thursday. A show that understands both the deep love and daily chaos of modern parenting.
