Parents Sometimes Understand
explicitLet's just say this one's inspired by DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince. *Note: there is some cursing in this episode — and some talk about the tooth fairy — so you might not want to listen with your kids.* This is the last episode of The Longest Shortest Time! But it isn't really goodbye. Hillary is cooking up something new, probably a project about middle school. UPDATE: The Longest Shortest Time is returning with new episodes on January 22, 2025! … Join LST+ for community and access to You Know What, another show in the Longest Shortest universe!
