The Scummy Mummies Podcast
Ellie Gibson and Helen Thorn
Recent Episodes
Vasectomies, pornography, dick jokes and poo logistics - we cover it all with the help of hilarious comedian and actor, Sam Pamphilon!
Sam tells us all about what it was like to have the snip, in graphic detail. We hear about the brilliant short film he recently starred in - The Man That I Wave At. And we discuss the sketch we tried out that was so filthy it never made it into the main Scummy Mummies show.
Of course we finish with some confessions, involving language barriers, removal men, and a big old Dad Fail.
IT'S TIIIIME! This week's shows in Chipping Norton are SOLD OUT. But you can come and see us in Chelmsford, Guildford, or Norwich. And we're touring our Hot Mess show throughout 2026 - go to scummymummies.com for dates and links.

Why do people have affairs? What effect does it have on kids? How do you learn to love again after your partner has cheated? Answering all these questions is the brilliant psychotherapist Juliet Rosenfeld!
She tells us all about her fascinating book, Affairs: True Stories of Love, Lies, Hope and Desire. We discuss what is going on in the minds of cheaters and what it's got to do with childhood. We also dig deep into topics such as polyamory, BDSM, and whether a relationship can be resurrected after an affair.
As is the custom, we end with some Scummy Mummy Confessions, this time involving a puffy coat and some Marks and Spencer party food.
Juliet's book is out now. You can follow her on the old Instagram @julietrosenfeldpsychoanalyst.

Imagine taking up athletics in your forties, discovering you're great at the triple jump, and going on to set a brand new record. That's what Emily Murray (aka @pinkhouseliving) did - and she's here to tell us all about it.
We learn about the Masters Athletics Federation, and how they offer people of all ages the chance to compete for actual medals. We discuss the pros and cons of being a super competitive person, and Emily explains how her perspective on winning has changed over the years.
There's also some chat about writing novels, the new Lily Allen album, and whether King Charles is really that much better than the artist formerly known as Prince Andrew.
Of course, we finish up with some Scummy Mummy Confessions - this time involving lube, shouting, and a drunken trip to Sainsbury's.
Follow Emily on Instagram @pinkhouseliving, and look out for her novel in 2027.

How do you get teens to talk to you? Why do they need to sleep so much? And where the hell are they putting all that food? Helping us to answer all these questions is author Nicole Howes!
She tells us all about her new book, Not a Survival Guide. We talk about the highs and lows of having teenage kids, and share our top tips for getting through. Nicole reveals why it's important to manage our expectations, and suggests some ways we can make things easier on ourselves, and our teens.
As always, we share some Scummy Mummy Confessions - this time involving shaving, a leaking swim nappy, and a smoking food processor. Plus: how does Ellie keep spoiling Love is Blind for Helen using just her eyebrows?
You can follow Nicole on Instagram @bynicolehowes.

Time for a cup of tea and a catch up as we share all the big stuff that's been happening lately. Helen talks about what it was like to run the Sydney marathon, and shares an unimpressive celebrity anecdote. Ellie discusses her partial knee replacement, and the thing she did in the hospital that made a nurse go "Oh my God."
We round off with some fantastic Scummy Mummy Confessions, harvested from our live show. Midwife mixups, redundancy revenge plots, women shaving each others' "fairies" - listen in for stories so funny you couldn't make them up.
