Why is that 9 Year Old Riding a Motorcycle to Starbucks? | BEST of FTS

Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Would you let your nine-year-old ride a 40 mph motorcycle to Starbucks while wearing a Little League batting helmet? Dave, Josh, and Omar digest the latest mind-boggling revelations about Josh’s college buddy—a highly respected transplant surgeon whose parenting and personal choices defy all logic. Before unpacking his bizarre parenting decisions, Josh breaks down his friend's daily diet regimen—prescribed by a questionable "fat coach" while taking Wegovy—and why he seems to be beating the weight-loss drug altogether. The guys then debate whether electric motorcycles belong on public streets in the hands of pre-teens, how a surgeon fails to notice his son's active TikTok account, the absurdity of buying designer shoes for a six-year-old, and the questionable ethics of getting professional massages for young children. From questionable weight-loss meal plans and street-legal kid bikes to social media loopholes and child massages, this ridiculous segment from Episode 77 delivers classic Friends Talking Shop banter on a friend whose real-life judgment calls leave everyone speechless.
