I normally love the Scummy Mummies podcast but I could only listen to half of this one as the background noise was so off putting. Disappointing.

Brilliant

I cannot rave about this podcast enough, these ladies crack me up no end. They are relatable and hilariously funny, (laugh out loud funny) I love how they touch on serious stuff all whilst still cracking jokes and making it light hearted. I have genuinely learnt things I never knew before as an adult mother of a 22 and 8 year old and I’ve also found out things to do and places to go which I would never of known of otherwise. I love love love this podcast.Keep up the good work ladies.

Can’t believe it’s taken me so long to try this podcast. It’s easily one of the funniest things I’ve listened to.

Amazing!

1st heard of The Scummy Mummies on Older and Wider and heard that they were touring so bought tickets for my sister and I to see their show in Winchester on 18th December 2019. Much to my delight, have now found this podcast so I’m listening from the episode 1. Am looking forward to your live show. May even bump into you having after show curry!

Hilarious!

The Scummy Mummies are absolutely hilarious! They discuss everything to do with being a parent in a really funny way. Their different guests are really interesting and I love the discussions they have about different topics, always giving me something to think about. But mostly I just love hearing people talk about going through the same thing that most mums are and making me laugh about it! (E.g. tantrums, fish fingers and swimming lessons.) I couldn’t recommend it more!!

Wow brilliant

It’s like listening to your mates having a gossip!!
I’ve been doing data entry for a week solid by myself in a solitary room before doing the nursery run and being “fun” mum and this podcast has saved my sanity and brought me close to almost peeing myself!!! #pelvicfloor

I have binge listened to this since discovering the podcast in July! Honest and hilarious and they cover some really tricky subjects. Great guests! Thank you so much ladies I wish I found this podcast on maternity leave. Should be part of your pregnancy pack!
Update April 2019;

I love this podcast! Even though they’re self proclaimed Scummy Mummies, listening to them over the years has inadvertently helped me be a better mum. When listening, l feel like I’m in the company of my own good friends who despite some of my best friends being a world away.

Love this podcast!

Sometimes in life we need a little lift, a bit of sparkle and sodding good giggle. I find myself commuting like a maniac, snatching moments being a toddler mum, tuning in whenever I can and cracking up in public with laughter. Just very real, relatable but also sincere interviewers. Ace work indeed!

Favourite podcast 😊

Aw Scummy Mummies I absolutely love you both, your podcasts are my favourite and I just wished you had more so I could listen to you every day. Thank you for making me smile even on difficult days, you’ll never realise what a difference you’ve made to so many people by just being yourselves! Also just listened to your Ortis Deley podcast and it was hilarious and possibly my favourite yet.
Well done ladies, love what you’re doing.

Great content but incredibly difficult to listen in places when you constantly talk over the guest in favour of making some kind of lame joke. Let your guest speak.

Hilarious, p!ssed myself laughing whilst out on a run

Thanks very much, you’ve ruined Christmas. Every time I hear Bublé sing in the future I will be thinking of you. Also of him choking down a single malt and choking off something else entirely.

I have been listening to these potty mouthed podcasts for a few years now and love everything about these bi monthly comedy nuggets. My kids are teenagers now but these shows bring back Memories of the tricky earlier days of exhaustion and exasperation. Keep it up scummies

Have started listening on my bus journey to work and am getting a lot of funny looks from my fellow passengers because I am snorting and crying with laughter! Very funny and brilliantly honest banter about being a parent and a woman! Highly recommend.

Scummy mummies, I have only discovered you in the last few months (where have I been?!) and would like to let you know that you are getting me through the daily drudge of being a stay at home mum and I can’t wait to see you on tour next year with my own lovely scummy mummy (seriously, ultimate mum scum right there).

The scummy mummies make my commute, actually quite enjoyable! Who would’ve thought 2 hours on the M25 and M4 to Swindon could be such a joy!!?
I’m sure the other drivers think I’m actually insane as I drive along laughing my head off!!
Thanks ladies - keep doing what you do!!

I've been a big fan of your podcasts since March 2017 having discovered them as an ideal accompaniment to nighttime nursing. I'm a now not so new Mum of a 17 month old. Your podcasts kept me amused (and awake) through the feeds which I managed to keep going for 6 months thanks to your witty support. The breastfeeding has long since finished but I am still very much enjoying your podcasts and long may it last. Thanks for doing what you do, I keep recommending your podcasts to any new mums.

I recommend clenching before laughing, just in case! Cracking stuff.
