Schitt with Money S1E4: Bad Parents
Description
Welcome back to Schitt with Money! Peita and Emma are diving into Bad Parents, an episode packed with questionable parenting, personal crises, and—of course—David Rose’s tragic realisation that his wardrobe is not as valuable to the world as it is to him.
In This Episode:
👗 David’s Closet Meltdown – Who knew folding a sweater could cause an existential crisis? David struggles with the idea of treating his designer wardrobe like anything less than an art exhibit.
💰 Parenting by Proxy – Johnny and Moira reflect on whether hiring the best nannies and sending the kids to elite schools actually made them good parents (spoiler: the answer is… unclear).
👠 Alexis’ Community Service Chic – Picking up trash in heels? Iconic. Ronnie puts Alexis in her place with one of the best burns of the episode: "This isn’t Say Yes to the Dress, princess."
🛻 Mysterious Farm Equipment – Peita and Emma go full detective mode trying to identify the strange vehicle rolling through Schitt’s Creek. (If you know what it is, DM us!)
Schitt We Learned:
💸 Your wardrobe is not an investment – David learns the hard way that luxury doesn’t always hold resale value. (That consignment store was not impressed.)
🏡 Downsizing is a reality check – From a mansion to a motel, the Roses (and our hosts) discuss what it’s like to live in a much smaller space than you’re used to.
👨👩👧👦 Time > Money in Parenting – Johnny and Moira thought they did everything “right” by giving their kids the best of everything. But did they actually spend time with them?

Next Up: The Cabin
Johnny and Moira attempt a weekend getaway (spoiler: it doesn’t go as planned), while Alexis and David throw a party. Honestly? It goes about as well as you’d expect.
Until next time, remember: Your closet is not an investment portfolio. (Just ask David.)
