The Teachings

The Teachings is a monthly radio broadcast and podcast, featuring four single Montreal moms dishing out the matriarchal truth — sometimes in English, French and Spanish — over dinner and drinks. Listen to some real talk, and a lot of laughter, about raising kids solo, surviving violence, managing bad baby daddies and smashing the patriarchy on the daily. All this and killer tunes.
