Welcome back!! My kids are grown, but still enjoyed the podcast about parents and quarantine. Lots of understanding and practical advice.

Here’s my 5-star review :), guys! Jordana and Shannon are so timely in all of their conversations. I always walk away from an episode, feeling knowledgeable and empowered. I’ve never been “into” podcasts until Call Your Mother and I am praying for more soon!

Love this podcast. Hoping they will continue. The always had interesting interviews.
gotcheese567 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/26/20
Jordana and Shannon are wonderful to listen to - they are insightful, knowledgeable, funny, ask the right questions, and always make me wish the 30 minute episode lasted longer or that I could call one up myself and just continue the conversation with them. Having just moved out of the country,...Read full review »

I just caught up on the last two episodes. Both were fabulous. Thank you for these two gems - both episodes widened my perspective and made me more sensitive and knowledgeable about two very important issues. Thank you for Call My Mother and happy thanksgiving.

I love listening to Call Your Mother. It is always interesting, often witty and usually quite touching.
Meredith-_ via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/22/19
I travel a lot for work and always appreciate being “edutained” by this podcast while on the road. I learn something about Judaism, motherhood, and myself during each episode. And I also ride the emotional roller coaster of laughing one minute and tearing up the next based on the topics. Jordana...Read full review »

I look forward to a new episode of Call Your Mother in my feed every week. Jordana and Shannon are intelligent, funny, and thoughtful. Their interviews with their guests are always empathetic, often broaching difficult subjects without sensationalizing or trivializing the topic. I’m likely to...Read full review »

One of my FAVORITE podcasts, hands down!!! Jordana and Shannon are smart, funny, and so very relatable. Their chemistry together is perfect. I love the guests they have on & their discussions are thought provoking, intentional, and the length is perfect! I can easily listen on one of my...Read full review »

Shannon’s sarcasm and revealing anecdotes. Jordana’s quick wit and sly laugh. Guests’ brilliance, insight, honesty, and wisdom. People in traffic next to me likely think I have lost my marbles because this podcast makes me laugh so hard tears run down my face. There’s no two ways about it —...Read full review »

Sometimes in parenthood (especially in Jewish motherhood) it’s really important to feel like you aren’t the only one. Jordana, Shannon, Gram, & all of their guests really help with the loneliness factor of Jewish parenting. I live in a small town with a very small Jewish community and...Read full review »
symphonylove13 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/08/19
This episode was an enthralling discussion of a phenomenon I noticed for years, but didn’t have the social research to realize it was pervasive and systemic. It was relevant for every mother: Jewish and non, working and stay at home. I kept listening in my car, even after I arrived at my...Read full review »
EvieMarie70 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/06/19
I work from home and spend very little time by myself between work and kids. But when I have 30 mins to myself in the car, Call Your Mother is my go to! I feel seen as a parent, as a Jew, and a woman in 2019. It’s like being on a call with the sisters I don’t have! Thank you for giving me this...Read full review »

So that definitely isn’t why I am writing this five star review. In my unbiased opinion, this is the best freaking podcast I have ever heard. Other podcasts should hang their heads in shame.
JordanaIsNotMySister via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/20/19
Fun, irreverent and deep. It’s perfect. I just listened to the pre-Yom Kippur podcast and it really made me think about my Judaism and what being Jewish means to me. At the same time, I smiled and laughed throughout.
Krimsman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/14/19
Jordana and Shannon are longtime Kveller contributors, and now readers (and others) can hear them interview a range of people about so many different topics based on their expertise or life experience. In the end the theme is Jewish parenting, but I've gotten to hear from SCOTUS reporter...Read full review »
Andrea101323 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/13/19
Okay, so I’m not a Jewish Mother...yet but as a Jewish twenty-something, I absolutely love this podcast. Listening to Jordana and Shannon feels like having coffee with two old friends. In almost every episode, I laugh, I cry, and I find something to be deeply moved about. More than once I’ve...Read full review »
Jordanlily6 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/11/19
I recently just listened to the Yom Kippur episode, and I am hooked. Jordana is hilarious and so informative. I've felt this way about my Judaism, so it's so nice to hear other people talk about it so openly. Looking forward to more listening.Read full review »
deafgirl0 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/11/19
The content of this podcast is fascinating. Jordana is a very skilled interviewer--she has the perfect blend of injected humor but keeping focus on her subject - and the choice of subjects is fascinating. Deceptively, this podcast isn't really about parenting - I think it's actually about...Read full review »
In skids via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/11/19
Call Your Mother talks about important topics in a fun and down to earth way. Getting a Jewish perspective is so critical at this time and feels comforting and familiar. Being a Jewish mom is complicated and Jordana and Shannon share their own wisdom and the wisdom of their guests to make the...Read full review »

I’ve laughed, I’ve teared up and I’ve most definitely learned while listening to the Call Your Mother podcast! I love the format of it! Jordana and Shannon do a fantastic job speaking with interesting and inspiring guests. They have an enjoyable and supportive rapport with one another that really...Read full review »
LAKatzman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/06/19
Call Your Mother is always entertaining and eye-opening, with guests who bring really fascinating perspectives about raising Jewish children. This is the kind of show where one week they’ll have an interview with a bestselling novelist and the next week with a former drug addict and then the next...Read full review »

Great interview with Leslie -- Raw and compelling. I look forward to listening to more interviews and what you do on your podcast! Thank you!

Got some great book ideas about how to talk with my kids about their bodies and sex.
Blicraft via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/19
Recently discovered this podcast and can’t wait to binge listen to more. The women are smart, funny and super relatable. Love Jordana’s mom’s cameo at the end!
Jtd477 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/19
Great content and vibe on this podcast! I really enjoy listening to it! I think Shannon’s Grandma needs to be on more often. She’s hilarious! Reminds of my grandma z”l. Same generation and same sense of honesty and speaking her truth. Thanks for all you do!
danakp via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/19
Jordana & Shannon are like the best friends you wish you had (especially if you’re a Jewish mom in the tristate area). Do not pass go. Subscribe now.
Amallrose via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/12/19
Humor mixed with the ups and downs of parenting as a Jewish or Jewish-affiliated mom. Laugh out loud moments in the car, wish I could respond with how my mom would have answered or things my kids say/do.
Ophirzl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/03/19
I have been reading Jordana’s work for ages now and was excited to learn about this podcast. I have not been disappointed. The banter between Shannon & Jordana, the amazing guests plus the range of topics covered make this podcast a must-listen for women regardless of religious affiliation. A...Read full review »

Great topics and the perfect length. Jordana and Sharon are timely in their topics and speak to all parents about children, parenting and issues of importance.
waitingforcamp via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/14/19
This podcast is terrific. I love the length of the episodes (I listen on my lunch break) and Jordana and Shannon have a wonderful banter. Jordana’s mom tells it like it is. The topics are relevant and real. Keep up the great work, ladies!
VSue84 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/12/19
You don’t have to be Jewish to enjoy this podcast. It speaks to women, moms, and anyone who want to hear from diverse interesting women. And Gram give timeless advice.
Wwooh888 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/12/19
Interesting guests and timely topics makes this parenting podcast from Kveller, a Jewish parenting website, not just for Jews. The hosts interviewing skills are strong as they ask good questions and then allow their guests to answer without speaking over them. Each episode ends with a call to...Read full review »
Badddddapp via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/11/19
Sometimes you just need a break from the news. At least I do. Call Your Mother allows some escape from the constant noise. The hosts deal with topics as varied as raising bi-racial children, losing a child, and preparing for the Seder. And, of course, at the end Jordana calls her mother. Call...Read full review »

This podcast reflects my real Jewish life as a parent and a daughter, and it's so entertaining. I love the guests, the chemistry of the hosts, and the calls to the Moms are like calls to my own. Each topic is carefully chosen and researched and I laugh, learn something new, and feel like...Read full review »

I just love this podcast. I could listen to Jordana and Shannon all day- they are fun but also very good interviewers, and the guests are diverse and interesting even when it’s something I know nothing about. I wish more people knew about this podcast!
JHGordon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/19
It’s as close as you can get to eavesdropping on smart moms weave together stories & topics that are hilarious, thoughtful, and provoking. Really enjoyed listening, made me reflect on ways to up my mom game.
Lindsay Palumbo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/19
One of my fave podcasts in heavy rotation. Deals with relatable, real and important (and some not as important :) issues with humor and openness. I love the breadth of guests they bring on and topics they cover. Always laugh a lot and learn something. Highly recommend!
Abby ; via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/19
Loving this podcast with Jordana & Shannon. Fun and interesting conversations that really resonate. You’ll find yourself coming back to it again & again.
lynnesto via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/19
These are not your mother’s Jewish mothers. Call Your Mother offers a broad, diverse, funny, candid, and compassionate look at modern Jewish parenting with a wide range of interesting topics and guests. Definitely recommend it.
Nat74VA via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/19
Great guests and hosts, no matter what stage of parenting you’re in. And I laugh out loud at least once every episode!
LeslieDRSO via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/07/19
Love this podcast. They get terrific guests and ask all the right questions— and I especially love how well the hosts complement each other. More of this please!
