Kari Byron, Mythbuster Mom: Preschool Hustle

June 20, 2011Kari Byron172

I am writing another $50 check, to another preschool … just for the chance to have my application reviewed. The more I think about this game, the more it feels like a grift. I show up to a potential preschool along with a dozen other mommies and daddies to compete for a spot that may […]

December 2, 2010Kari Byron65

Kari Byron – From MythBuster to Mom

October 4, 2010Kari Byron50

In the beginning, a little nausea and napping under my desk was all I expected. When I really took a look at what I do on a daily basis, however, I realized being a pregnant MythBuster was going to be hard.
