We need teen guests on the podcast!

Big Mama’s House Podcast is a podcast for teens hosted by Jesse Weinberger - Internet Safety Speaker for schools and students. 

Teens who share their story (completely anonymously*) could be helping someone else going through the same issues. Whether it's general life pressure, school stuff, mental health concerns, tech related drama - we want to hear it, and so does our audience. 

*NOTE: Any appearance on the audio-only podcast is completely anonymous. We will give you a different name/location for the interview. All interviews are recorded - even if you accidentally reveal personal details during the recording, we will remove them in post-production. We're *super* concerned about your privacy, and will NEVER reveal any of your personal details.  

If you're at least 13-years-old and would like to be on the podcast, fill out the form below.

Season 02 : Episode 00 Pilot: Moist dudes in basements & parents who don’t pay attention

Too many parents either don’t engage or don’t believe that their teens are suffering. That’s why Season 2 will be focused directly to teenagers. If we’re going to make even the slightest dent in digital safety we need help from a population who doesn’t need to be “convinced” that there’s a problem in the first place.

Beginning with Season 2 – Big Mama’s House Podcast will be a podcast for teens

It’s taken forever, but season 2 is finally going to be released this week.

Focusing on Teens

I went back and forth for a long time – trying to craft the best possible way to reach a much larger audience. (I can only spend *so* much time traveling before I snap.) After much deliberation, I’ve decided to reformat the podcast.

Big Mama’s House Podcast is now for teens (13 years old and up).

While covering true crime, tech issues, social media issues, bullying, sexting, etc – I’m also going to explore the latest discoveries in mental health, as well as topics exploring the immense amounts of pressure impacting teens.

(Insider info: Based on the episodes already recorded, I can guarantee that you’ll learn something new and laugh along in the process. Some of my guests are the teeensiest bit unhinged. My favorite.)

Useful to parents & schools too

As an added bonus, the teen-centric content will be a useful resource for parents and school districts. If you’re a parent or an educator and you’re not sure how to begin a conversation, feel free to use the episodes as the starting point for “real” conversations.

If you’ve landed in this space as an adult, you’re welcome to stay and participate. Just beware that we’re going to have some stuff to say to you too. Like, don’t ask your kids to put their phones down at dinner, while YOU have yours in your hand. Seriously. Enough is enough

Bottom Line
Season 1’s intended audience is adults and school districts
Season 2’s (and future season’s) intended audience is teens
