About this episode
Actor, director, and food enthusiast Laura Prepon joins Parenting is a Joke to talk about parenting, directing That ‘90s Show, and her deep-seated hatred of tuna fish—thanks to some childhood trauma involving her sister and a classmate’s braces. She shares her love for homemade soups, her kids’ aversion to marinara sauce, and why a solo parenting weekend is way tougher than an 18-hour day on set. Plus, Laura reveals her past as a hardcore poker player, including playing in the World Series of Poker and hosting high-stakes home games. A fun, fast-paced conversation packed with unexpected stories, parenting struggles, and plenty of laughs.
