In each episode, we skip the small talk and dive into vulnerable and honest conversations about topics like cycle breaking, trauma, race, mental health, parenting, sex, religion, postpartum, healing, and loss. We are glad you are here. PS: The name Robot Unicorn comes from our daughter. When we asked her what we should name the podcast, she confidently came up with this name because she loves robots, and she loves unicorns, so why not? There was something about the playfulness of the name, the confidence in her voice, and the fact that it represents that you can love two things at once that just felt right.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-29T18:17:58.256290+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/robot-unicorn-6878276"},"episode":{"title":"What Parents Need To Know About Grooming: Protecting Kids (Part 1)","slug":"what-parents-need-to-know-about-grooming-protecting-kids-part-1","published_at":"2026-04-13T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/robot-unicorn-6878276/what-parents-need-to-know-about-grooming-protecting-kids-part-1","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/robot-unicorn-6878276","url":"https://share.transistor.fm/s/20ec9d15","audio_url":"https://media.transistor.fm/20ec9d15/6e37675e.mp3","summary":"CW: Abuse, child sexual abuse, grooming In this heavy but crucial episode of Robot Unicorn, hosts Jess and Scott tackle the difficult reality of childhood sexual abuse and the grooming process.
