Liz Alterman’s Disastrous Multi-Generational Vacation

Who would be zany enough to plan a trip to Florida with their 80-year-old mother and three teenage sons and live to write about the adventure? Liz Alterman, that’s who! She is an award-winning author published in The New York Times and The Washington Post, and a frequent McSweeney’s contributor. Join Stephanie [https://www.kean.edu/directory/stephanie-silver-silberstein] Silberstein and Holly [https://hollyrizzutopalker.com/] Rizzuto Palker as they listen to Liz read her essay, “I Booked a Multi-Generational Vacation to Bring My Mom and Kids Closer...and, Wow, Did It Backfire,” originally published in Business Insider. Afterward, Holly and Steph talk with Liz about crushing on David Letterman, fast-food Tourette, and the woes of being smack in the middle of the sandwich generation. Can you guess which two famous actresses/comedians almost voiced the audio version of Liz’s book, Sad Sacked? Listen to this episode to learn more about Liz Alterman and her low-key parenting humor.
