What happens when you try to squeeze Wicked, tailgating & football, and Thanksgiving prep into one jam-packed weekend? Absolute chaos—and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

In this episode of The Kids Are in Bed, Tim and Jenni Severson share a candid (and often hilarious) recap of their family-filled adventures. From their night out at Wicked—complete with matching outfits and 9 million real flowers—to their cozy home-cooked Thanksgiving dinner, the weekend was full of love, laughter, and a few missteps.

Highlights include:

• Mini Vacations vs. Full Vacations: Why short getaways can feel even more relaxing than extended trips.
• The Magic of Wicked: Our thoughts on the stunning visuals, incredible cast, and Ariana Grande’s surprising performance.
• Tailgate Wins (and Woes): Why packing chili at 6:30 AM is both genius and nauseating.
• Thanksgiving Hot Takes: Is stuffing more important than turkey? Plus, our foolproof recipe for making Thanksgiving stress-free.
• Holiday Reinvention: Could a pre-Thanksgiving “No Pressure Giving” holiday be the key to keeping your family drama-free?

This episode is filled with laughs, family-friendly moments, and hot takes on everything from holiday traditions to stadium traffic. Whether you’re a fan of The Kids Are in Bed or just discovering us, this one is a must-listen.
