Wine Special with Knackered Mother Helen McGinn

7/5/2020

1 Comment

 
​WINE TIME! As we all drinking a few more glasses of wine than usual, we thought we would re-release this classic podcast with wine expert Helen McGinn. Helen now features regularly on the BBC's Saturday Kitchen and her book The Knackered Mother's Wine Guide: Because Life's too Short to Drink Bad Wine is now available.
Ever wondered what wine goes with fish fingers? Is it really worth spending a tenner instead of a fiver? And what's the best way to avoid hangovers? We answer all these questions and more with the help of wine expert Helen McGinn. 
She tells us all about her award-winning blog and best-selling book, The Knackered Mother's Wine Club. We find out why Ribena is technically more expensive than booze, and discuss Nigella's recipe for wine soup. Plus Helen M reveals what goes on behind the scenes at The Alan Titchmarsh Show (spoiler: Atomic Kitten like a drink.)
We explain why Prosecco is the Helen Thorn of wines and she tells us about her goon bag. Ellie outlines her idea for a breastmilk-themed drinking game and we test Helen M on her wine label knowledge with an inevitably stupid quiz.
Visit Helen McGinn's blog to sign up for her regular emails. Her book comes highly recommended and you can also followed her on Twitter: @knackeredmutha.
We're on Twitter too: @scummymummies. We love getting reviews on iTunes and reading your Scummy Mummy Confessions - please send in via Facebook or email scummymummiespodcast@gmail.com.

175: Sex, strippers and LOLs with Cat and Nat

14/4/2020

0 Comments

 
Full disclosure: this may be the loudest, fastest, funniest, filthiest podcast we've ever done. We were thrilled to meet the amazing Cat and Nat, and none of us could stop talking the whole time. Definitely not one to listen to with the kids around - pour yourself a wine, lock the toilet door, and strap in...

​This episode starts with a very strong chat about whether we've looked at our own downstairses, and doesn't get any more highbrow from there. We talk about everything from friendship, being in a double act and performing live shows to how often we have sex. How important is it to have a partner who's funny? What do you do if your kids start swearing? And how do you give a hand job that's better than a blow job? We chat about all this and more... #brexspit

For more from these bloody legends, visit catandnat.ca. You can follow them @catandnat, and watch their fantastic videos on YouTube. They also have a podcast and a book, both called Mom Truths.

Clemmie and Anna provide fantastic advice and there are plenty of laughs, too. Cheers Ellie and Helen xx

They share their experiences of anxiety - how it all began for them, how it changed with motherhood, and how they've learned to cope. There are some practical tips for what you can do and what you should avoid if you want to look after your mental health. And, of course, there's a bit of filth and some jokes about pooing.


Anna's book, Breaking Mad: The Insider's Guide to Conquering Anxiety, is out now. The follow-up, Breaking Mum and Dad, will be released in March, but is already available for pre-order. She has also written a children's book, Flo and the Funny Feelings, which is free to download.

Episode 170: Comedy, Gay Parenting and IVF with Jen Brister

4/2/2020

1 Comment

 
It's an eventful episode this week as we chat to hilarious comedian Jen Brister, and accidentally lock her in Ellie's lounge. 


Listen to Jen chat about being a gay parent and mum of twins, while becoming increasingly desperate for a piss. Will we be rescued in time, or will Jen be forced to wee in Ellie's son's fireman's bucket? Tune in to find out and enjoy some exciting cameos. Do listen right to the end for a surprising twist.
Jen tells us what it's like to have babies with another lady, and how you decide who gets to be (has to be?) the pregnant one. We also find out why choosing sperm with your partner is even harder than deciding what to watch on Netflix. 


Later on, Jen shares the most honest advice about kids and sleep we've ever heard. Ellie and Helen try to explain what Match Attax is, and to guide Jen through her kids starting school. Predictably they fail on both counts. 


Jen's brilliant book, The Other Mother, is out now. Follow her @jenbrister and visit her website jenbrister.co.uk.

12/11/2019

How do you get over a sex drought? How many women can orgasm from penetrative sex? And does wearing socks in bed really make it easier to come? Answering all these questions are the amazing Anniki and Lisa from The Hotbed Collective! 


We cover an enormously wide range of topics, from getting back into sex after you've had a baby to how often we should be fiddling with ourselves. Along with some practical tips, there's some chat about sex toys for men, perving over Tom Selleck, and what happened when Anniki watched porn every day for a week. 
The brilliant book More Orgasms Please is out now. Follow these legends @thehotbedcollective on all the things.

15/10/2019

Our guest for this episode is the leading feminist campaigner and best-selling author Clementine Ford! We talk about everything from toxic masculinity and dealing with trolls to teaching our kids about consent. 


There's some chat about motherhood, and Clementine explains how the experience of giving birth strengthened her commitment to fighting for abortion rights. We get some practical advice about raising our children to be feminists and the best baby shower gift you can give, plus we discover an unexpected link between Brussesl sprouts and anal sex. 
We also talk about climate change and what we can do to be part of the solution. We finish up with a Scummy Mummies podcast first - a Confession that unravels live during the recording. 


Clementine's books, Boys Will Be Boys and Fight Like a Girl, are out now. You can follow her on Facebook and Twitter @clementine_ford.
