Your Mom's Favorite DJ is the third studio album by Canadian turntablist Kid Koala, released on Ninja Tune in 2006.

Critical reception

Marisa Brown of AllMusic gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying, "as a fun, informative celebration of Koala's decade of work, it's absolutely great." Brian Hull of Okayplayer said, "Your Mom's Favorite DJ is laden with blues, fuzzed out guitars, Dixieland, and more sampled dialogue than most records can boast in lyrics."

David Downs of East Bay Express listed it on his "Best Records of 2006" list.^[2]
