Parenting is messy, chaotic, and full of surprises—and now, there’s a podcast that embraces it all. Baby Talk, the latest from 9Podcasts, is hosted by new mums Tayla Broad and Lana Murphy, who are bringing their unfiltered, laugh-out-loud take on motherhood to a wider audience.

What started as their own two-person mothers’ group is now an open invitation to anyone navigating parenthood—whether you’re a new mum, a soon-to-be mum, thinking about motherhood, or just curious about what really goes on behind the Instagram filters. Baby Talk dives into the highs, the lows, and the inevitable messes, with honesty, humour, and zero judgment.

9Podcasts Content Manager, Richard Stansbury, said: “We’re very excited to have Tayla Broad and Lana Murphy on board to launch a very authentic and refreshing new podcast. The genuine relationship Tayla and Lana have formed since becoming mums is undeniable and, as soon as parents hear them share their often opposing experiences of parenthood, we’re certain they’ll be turning to their friends saying “that’s just like me and you.” In a world filled with so many experts and the pressures of being a modern parent, Tayla and Lana are here to be real, cut through the noise and help other mums, mum.”

Tayla Broad added: “As cliche as this sounds, Baby Talk has quickly become our child. Of course, we love our actual kids slightly more. We have created this podcast for mothers, others and friends of mothers, longing to be mothers, expecting mothers, or those curious about motherhood. Our podcast bridges the gap between Type A and Type B parenting, offering a refreshing, down-to-earth perspective on motherhood.”

“We know how lonely being a mum can be at times, and not everyone has access to a mum bestie as I do with Lana, so we thought, why not create a mother’s group that everyone can join without even leaving the house? Baby Talk offers a genuine, relatable take on parenting, filled with humour and heart.”

Lana Murphy, 9News journalist, said: “Like many, since having a baby, my world and identity has been flipped on its head. I’ve gone from being a busy career-focused girlie to… well… an even busier mum. Part of me is still in denial, and I often find myself searching for the real adult in the room. But what I have learned is that motherhood really is nothing to be afraid of. In fact—it’s actually quite fun.”

“The key is having the right people around you. The ‘village’ is a term new parents hear often. It’s imperative—not just for survival—but to thrive. I am so grateful that I have one, with family and friends who really get it. But not everyone does. Not everyone gets to stumble upon a 10/10 mum friend like Tayla.

“So—we’ve decided it’s our duty to expand our village, to create a space where people can laugh and cry and whinge and moan with ZERO judgement and ZERO PRESSURE to learn the lyrics to the Baby Sensory songs.”
