Norah and Mama Time - Podcast Mẹ và Con Tâm sự
Ever wondered what a kid really thinks about big topics like life, death, or friendship? Unsure what to say beyond “So… who did you play with at recess?” Or caught yourself muttering, “Why won’t my kids listen? Why can’t I just do something I actually enjoy for once?” Enter Norah & Mama Time — a cozy, heart-to-heart podcast that puts an 8-year-old’s perspective front and center… and is fun for parents, too. Hosted by Norah Smooke and her mama, Linh, this show features real conversations between a mother and daughter who happen to be best friends. From school drama and silly stories to book obsessions, dance class, food cravings, and growing up between Colorado and Vietnam — we talk about it all. We believe kids are full of clarity, humor, and wisdom. And we’re here to prove that the most meaningful conversations can come from the smallest voices. Our goal? 30 episodes of real, relaxed, giggle-filled chats. New episodes every week this summer. Come hang with us 💛

They discussed potty humor 💩, plot twists, character redempt...
I love you but I don’t like you… sometimes. Anyone with a sibling can probably relate — and even find this mindset helpful.
In this second episode of Norah & Mama Time, 8-year-old Norah opens up about the highs and lows of life with two younger siblings. Together, she and Mama talk through the hard parts of being an older sister, share tips for handling tricky sibling moments, and even swap stories from Mama’s own childhood wit...
