## Resource

This is “BPR Talks” – where we feature the call-in segments of the day. If you’re looking for the full two hours with guests, you can find the full episode right here in the same feed. Today on the show: because we love lunch, and politics. How are you navigating the minefield of other parents about the decision to include sweet treats like Oreos in little Timmy’s lunchbox? Should the whole class, or office, be ultra-processed and sugar-free to remove any temptation…or joy…from lunchtime? Listen in to find out!
