“I realize this is an old podcast. However this year (2023) I became a mom and I really enjoyed listening from the start those first few months.
Like most media endeavors after 2015, the content has more of a slanted-‘progressive’ view which I honestly find boring. One of the reasons I enjoyed...”Read full review »

“I listened to the episode with Ina May and was disappointed to hear how much baggage Hilary has against the interviewee. It sounds like the host during her narrations isn’t actively listening or being objective and instead taking everything very personally which doesn’t make a good...”Read full review »

“I am here from the Ina May Gaskin Episode.
You quite literally said “labor was manageable until I got Pitocin” AKA you didn’t fail because you got an epidural, you failed when you decided to give birth at a hospital.
This is why she harps on fear. If you had no fear you would have birthed at...”Read full review »

“Holy moly. As a first time mom in the thick of newborn life, this podcast is SO amazing - I feel so seen and understood, and I know I'm not the only one dealing with these things. It's refreshing hearing the specific reflections/struggles of early parenthood by parents who have some...”Read full review »

“I listened to the late term abortion and it was Heartbreaking. While I don’t have words to speak to this familiy’s loss, I will say that there are some points that were missed. First, Donald trump was speaking to Ralph Northam statement(from cnn.com) “ infant would be delivered. The infant...”Read full review »

“This was my favorite podcast for a while. At some point the interviews stopped being about that first year of parenthood and the show really lost its poignancy. So many gimmicky episodes, and the storytelling felt lacking. I’m still giving it 3 stars for those first episodes though, if I was...”Read full review »

“This podcast got me through pregnancy and being a new mom with its great stories and relatable and honest host, but since it switched hosts, I rarely listen. I tried, I really did, but I cannot understand why someone without a child would be chosen to host this show. The show tried to tie in...”Read full review »

But the producer’s child grew up and she was no longer invested in early childhood so she left. She was replaced by...”Read full review »

“The Longest Shortest Time has been a stable podcast of mine for four years, and I only became a parent two years ago. I don’t believe you have to be a parent to host, a guest, or a listener. This podcast is about family, and it has evolved over time to portray a rich variety of relationships....”Read full review »

I was lucky to find someone who made me want to get married and is now changing my mind about children. I have only...”Read full review »

Has turned into a nonstop...”Read full review »
