5 Podcasts for Curious Kids & Thoughtful Parents (Especially Those in Tech)

Between Slack messages and spilled snacks, modern parenting is chaos. Here are 5 podcasts that help—2 for parents, 2 for kids, and 1 that brings everyone together. Featuring Good Inside, The Lazy Genius, Circle Round, But Why, and Norah & Mama Time.

Parenting in the digital age is wild. Everyone, everything is seemingly fighting for your attention. Crying baby while checking (yet another) URGENT slack message? Checked. Whiny toddler sick at home in the middle of a weekly standup? Checked. Emergency fires to put out at work in the middle of nightly homework reviews with your grade-schooler? Checked.

It's understandable, hence, that many parents have turned to tech as a crutch—handing over tablets at dinner, scrolling while supervising bathtime, answering emails during bedtime stories. Convenience becomes survival. But over time, we trade real connection for digital noise.
