  • One of the best parenting podcasts

    This podcast has helped me so much as a new mom. It covers all ages but everything is talked about in a kind and factual way. Specially the peanut allergy episode, talking about the scientific studies recently done, was helpful to me.

    Love it and would recommend it to everyone

  • Great info for parents and caregivers

    Dr. Mike is great at giving nuanced info in a simple way, and making good points for at-home discussion.

    Some episodes are deep dives into a single broad topic, and other are general news of the day for a big audience.

    So glad Nationwide Children’s Hosptial does these!

  • Great quality information

    I really appreciate Dr. Mike taking the time and effort to put together these well researched and informative podcasts. I frequently listen to a range of podcasts, both educational and just for fun, and it is rare to find such a quality podcast for the general public. I just have one minor suggestion- please shorten your introduction. I usually have to fast forward through the first 10 mins as it takes this long for the content to start.
