- Thank you, from France
This podcast was recommended by a couple of friends of mine, and I started listening to it as soon as I realised I wanted to have kids. It's been an absolute unwavering support in my parenting journey. I'm now the father of a 19-month-old, and I'm fortunate enoughthat's he is developing really well and he's doing amazingly. I think a large part of that is thanks to the support I received from the pop culture parenting podcast. Thank you guys, keep going!

I love this podcast. I only started listening this year and I’m already deep into the back catalogue.
As a child psychologist, I really appreciate the thoughtful reflections, honesty and humour that Dr Billy and Dr Nick bring to every episode. They’ve somehow influenced both my professional thinking and my movie watchlist.
I’ve recommended the podcast to heaps of friends, many of whom don’t have kids either. Loved the Melbourne live show too. A very easy 5 stars.

This podcast has helped me be such a better parent. From connecting with my kids, regulating tricky emotions, picking up on cues early, and understanding dirge diversity of kids, it’s taught me practical things I have applied. And the boys have a good laugh along the way.
