Parenting Apps, Subreddits, & Group Chats—Oh My!

ICYMI

About this episode

How many apps does it take to raise a child in 2026? Not only are parents navigating countless WhatsApp groups and summer camp platforms, there’s also a whole world of Reels, subreddits, and Facebook groups filled with advice. Often, however, the answers just lead to more questions. On today’s episode, host Kate Lindsay is joined by What Next: TBD host Lizzie O’Leary to talk about the parenting side of the internet, and how understandable anxieties play out online. 


This podcast is produced by Vic Whitley-Berry, Daisy Rosario, and Kate Lindsay.
