The Mom and Son Podcast

Dee and Jay

The Mom and the Son Podcast is an honest, funny, and thought-provoking conversation between two people who share a bond—but not always the same perspective. Hosted by Jay, a 20-something navigating adulthood, and his mom Ladedra, a single mother redefining life after raising her only child, this podcast explores what happens when two generations sit down to truly listen to each other. From mother–son relationships and parenting across life stages to careers, relationships, culture, and society, Jay and Ladedra tackle real topics with openness, humor, and mutual respect. Expect conversations about dating, career decisions, college vs. trade school, generational wealth, workplace culture, AI, pop culture, and the everyday Black experience—along with the occasional debate, side-eye, and laugh. They don’t always agree—but they do always aim to understand. By sharing the conversations that shaped their relationship, Jay and Ladedra invite listeners into a space where perspective matters, growth is encouraged, and connection comes first.
