- This podcast is nice, but…
Please stop using terms like “pregnant person”. This is so distracting every single time, makes listening to the podcast a chore, where I am being forced imaginary pictures of “chestfeeders”. Unfortunately for me, the content itself is pretty good.

Canada5 months ago - 5 minutes in before trash talking capitalism
I am dying for one mothers podcast that doesn’t have an implicit socialist bend. My mother escaped from communism and we had family members killed by it. Not all of your listeners are anti-capitalist, in fact a silent majority of people are NOT socialist. Please, save the anti-capitalism jabs for a different, more political format! I want to hear about science based parenting, not your inexperienced, naive take on socialism and politics.
