Really! As a mom of 2 boys and a girl, as a teacher, as a partner to a man. Simply and plainly VITAL information for any human who interacts with other humans.

Just listened to the last episode where 90% of it is about the host/guest’s biased opinion on what’s happening in the Middle East. What a waste of time.

As a parent and mental health professional who works with children I generally find the ideas presented in this podcast to be current and spot on. However the last episode on competitiveness references all ‘he’ and ‘his’. I know the question involved a boy, but it became very irritating. C’mon,...Read full review »

When I work up wide awake and saw that it was only 11:44pm, there was nothing else to do but stay up. I “stumbled” upon this podcast and found it helpful for a few reasons. First, unity in parenting is important. Addressing behavior appropriately is equally important (redeeming v. punishing)....Read full review »

Interesting to hear a little of the brain science behind certain behaviors. Love that they take listener questions and really do a deep dive for that person, but also make it relatable to all listeners. Looking forward to hearing more.

For me, this podcast has been enormously helpful on a number of topics. As I raise three boys under 10 years old, the information and insights have been practical and helpful to this chapter of life for me. Please continue to keep up the important work. Thank you!

Not worth your time. There doesn’t seem to be much science backing this up. Primarily the same parenting advice from a generation ago: boys will be boys, put them in time out, etc.
Anna 28806 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/21
Not sure how episode 131 is going to inform or help parents in any way. I’m a mom who was looking for something interesting and refreshing to listen to. I thought the topic was suiting for me as a mother of a 9 year old doing virtual learning but their advice was just redundant. I don’t care to...Read full review »

I am currently reading Michael Gurion’s book, “The Wonder of Boys”. I heard him on a podcast previously and loved his perspective on raising our boys—was super happy to find this podcast. It’s refreshing to listen to someone that is an expert in his area and does not seem to be as extreme as...Read full review »

I’m elated to see this podcast still going. It’s educational, entertaining, and something I like to refer to when I need some perspective on a new situation. Excellent resource suggestions-people, books, etc.
AlexaBorota via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/13/21
I really enjoyed listening to a few episodes until I heard the one on spanking. Shocked and disappointed in the promotion of healthy “spanking” and how to do it right by surprising the child. I will search for more parenting podcasts that treat and view children as worthy of basic respect.
valeriesobus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/10/21
Outstanding. I have learned so much, from every episode. With two boys, and today’s societal challenges, I find this podcast more than helpful- it offers a glimmer of hope for the future generations of young men. Thank you Tim and Michael for all you do.
nki13 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/21
I am loving this podcast! THe hosts pack every episode with tons of amazing content, guests, and interviews that will motivate, uplift and inspire you. I highly recommend!
Stacey Shapiro via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/10/20
I enjoyed this podcast with some skepticism until I reached an episode that is very clearly denouncing feminism as being anti-male. If you think this, you clearly have no idea what feminism stands for. It’s not anti-male, it’s anti-toxic masculinity. It’s not asking a lot. In the same couple...Read full review »

As a scientist, I certainly appreciate the evidence-based intention behind this podcast, and the effort it takes to break research down in a way that can be discussed on a podcast. However, I listened to several episodes where the hosts seem to minimize experiences and perspectives of maligned...Read full review »
Hotcocoabuns via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/20
I was interest in this podcast until you started talking about removing gluten from a child’s diet. This is dangerous advice. People don’t always know how to do a major diet modification like that while still providing a balanced diet. Not to mention it’s expensive, difficult, and there really is...Read full review »
lms89000 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/07/20
These two male hosts are extremely focused on traditional gender roles, speaking almost exclusively about gender differences in every episode and using the podcast as a platform to push their personal gender-essentialist views. They use “brain research” to reinforce their opinions that boys and...Read full review »

extremely male driving podcast. they make some valid points but if you have a daughter this is not the podcast for you
Packersfan03 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/29/20
I found a lot of helpful info in this podcast but I was really turned off when a guest said we are living in an “anti male era”.

Thank you Michael and Tim for motivating me to get down to my son’s level and re-see the world through his eyes.
DohaAlex via Apple Podcasts · Qatar · 01/20/20
The very first episode I listed to told me: there is no one right way and there was a need and a place for both me and my spouse’s way of parenting. It was a huge relief! It helped us see each other and our children as individuals and how we need to parent them as the individuals they are. In a...Read full review »

This is a tonic - it’s a must listen! We need to help boys develop and not let them get lost in a word that doesn’t want boys to be “men”. These two men share reason and insite in to the hard wiring of our boys brains. Thank you thank you
SaraSparks via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/04/19
I’ve only listened to a couple episodes so far, and I’m really liking their approach to the topics they bring up. Nothing about this podcast has seemed misogynistic to me, but I’ll update my review if I hear something that is.
[Just a nameless soul] via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/21/19
Had this recommended to me by a friend. But started in on the “traditional masculinity” episode and was very disappointed. They obviously have no respect or understanding of feminism but are intent on saying they’re wrong. Spent the first 10 minutes just saying that rather than going into the...Read full review »

I’m not surprised to see all the review that say this is a gender biased podcast. For me this podcast, while having some definite biases, offers some new ways of thinking and understanding issues of parenting. It is not as scientific as the name suggests, though they occasionally quote a study or...Read full review »

Not much science here, just two men resentful of women’s progress.
sophie246810 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/13/19
After browsing through the reviews, obviously most are very positive but then some give 1 star ratings, which I think are very unrealistic. Here are my two cents: Listen to more than one episode before making an opinion. Yes, the show is broadcasted by two slightly older white guys, so yeah,...Read full review »

As a scientist, I am disappointed. This podcast seems to present opinions as science.
ace564race via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/06/19
The potty training episode was very confusing. There weren’t any answers to potty training. A lot of talking in circles
taylor09292016 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/19
I really wanted to like this. I want a science based approach to understanding my kid but they just kill me with the “moms parent this way and dads this way”. Just not my experience as a mom or as a daughter.
Pjvawyvk via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/12/19
As a father of two boys I’m sometimes concerned that boys are underperforming in school at every level, and our culture seems afraid to acknowledge this out of fear of risking progress made with girls. This podcast gives great actionable advice for parents of both boys and girls, paying...Read full review »

Bummer, I wanted to like this. It was the episode on Children’s’ Brains and Screen Time that helped me decide. Claims that the future of university education is under stress because due to our “safe space culture”; specifically that less men will go to University out of fear they will be accused...Read full review »

Excellent evidence based podcast. Every parent should listen to this.
GiYiRi via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/04/19
The title says it all. I love the backing of scientific evidence on their positions, and what they advise is based on realistic expectations for families. I have recommended it to all of my mom friends!
Chasingchase via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/02/19
My favorite parenting podcast! I’ve tried so many different ideas and the science based approach feels most true to me. I also wrote in a question and had it answered on the podcast! I appreciate everything these two do!

I don’t usually review podcasts but I had to write a review for this one. As a separated parent I have struggled with knowing if my way of bringing my children is good. This podcast shows me I am not the only guy who parents kids this way and gives me the confidence to keep doing the right thing....Read full review »
boddyb via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/01/19
Some good stuff here, but ultimately a very biased. I have an issue with people presenting things as scientific facts, when really they’re little more than opinions. There are a lot of claims here that aren’t really backed up by evidence. Or have conflicting research and aren’t as clear cut as...Read full review »

Mrs. Ols via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/25/19
Love this podcast. They get to the point, use scientific information to back up their reasoning, and it’s just like nothing else out their. I really enjoy and love it and share each episode with my husband!
jackiegon23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/23/19
I love this podcast! They talk a lot about the brain science behind normal and abnormal development in boys and girls. It’s educational but presented in such a way as to be easily understood and relatable. There is so much out there about the nurture aspect of raising kids and this focuses a...Read full review »
jamisenz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/19
The information in this is so so valuable, there’s so much information online for parenting, it gets so overwhelming and you really don’t know what’s right and what’s wrong. So to hear scientific information behind parenting has been so eye opening as a mom of a 4 year old boy, who’s full of life...Read full review »
M.Rosexo via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 05/27/19
I have two boys and it’s really great to know that it’s okay for boys to behave the way they are. That they are biological engineered that way and to let them emote their own way (instead of sitting and talking - coz it didn’t work for me!) It helps me to understand my boys more and ways to...Read full review »
marykrum via Apple Podcasts · Singapore · 05/12/19
Good information from a scientific angle but it’s clearly male research because you can see the bias. It also isn’t as helpful if you don’t have a traditional family
L3ir3123:) via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/11/19
I am only a few episodes in and am really enjoying the podcast so far. Learning more about how children’s brains work, and the difference between boys and girls brains, is really helpful. This is just what I have been looking for. I have four kids (two boys, two girls), a boy and girl in upper...Read full review »

As a mom of two boys I really enjoyed this podcast. I like that the science base on which they develop the themes and I found the inside into a male perspective into parenting very useful and interesting. One thing is that I would like the episodes to be longer, or at least come to a more...Read full review »
