The Times UK - 20 best podcasts for parents (and kids) — chosen by our critic

Teenagers Untangled
A 2024 winner at the Independent Podcast awards, this offers more than 100 episodes of relatable, non-judgmental insight. The lead presenter is Rachel Richards, journalist and parenting coach, who has two teenage girls and two stepdaughters. Episodes range from an interview with the social scientist Matilda Gosling, author of Teenagers: The Evidence Base, to tips on helping a shy child, avoiding nagging or discussing adolescent self-image with her own daughter, Phoebe. As a mother letting her post-GCSE son go to Reading this summer, I was grateful for a segment on festival tips, straight from the mouths of teenagers.
