On this episode of The Wake Up Call with Scotch & Mandy, Mandy opens up about the struggle of weaning her toddler off the pacifier—and the not-so-perfect parenting shortcuts we all take just to survive the day. From bribing with snacks to giving in for a moment of peace, we’re talking real-life parenting hacks that might not win awards, but definitely save sanity.
Plus, we dive into the world of DIY home projects and the relationship tests they bring. Why do “easy-to-assemble” bookshelves take all day? Do you and your partner follow the instructions—or wing it and hope for the best?
Tune in for laughs, relatable stories, and a few “we’ve all been there” moments. Perfect for parents, couples, and anyone who’s ever battled a set of confusing instructions.
