Welcome back to Jokes Out Loud, the podcast where everyday chaos becomes premium comedy! I’m your host, Thomas Smith, and today we’re diving into one of the greatest mysteries of childhood — the legendary parental lie known as “We’ll see.”

Today we’re breaking down this universal comedic moment — why parents use it, what kids think it means, and how “We’ll see” is basically childhood’s version of “Access Denied.”So buckle up, grab your nostalgia helmet, and get ready to laugh as we explore the lies, the legends, and the lifelong trauma—comedy trauma, of course—behind that iconic phrase.
