    Josie Long and Jen Lamacq: Screen time, sanity & the social media myth

    In this episode of Funny Mummies, Hatty catches up with old friend and regular guest Josie Long — the award-winning stand-up comedian, writer, filmmaker, BBC Shortcuts creator, author, and mum of two girls. Basically, one of Hatty’s favourite humans. They’re also joined by returning guest Dr. Jen Lamacq, child psychiatrist and educator, who helps us all feel a little better about that never-ending debate: kids and screen time. Together, they get honest about the guilt, confusion, and myths around social media and parenting — from “10-second Instagram advice” to the pressure of constant content. Jen helps unpack what’s actually true, what’s just oversimplified nonsense, and why we can probably all stop beating ourselves up about it. Mum Watch ; As always, you’ll also get TV Picks from your favourite TV watcher — Hatty’s sister Tracey, who does all the hard viewing so you don’t have to. Just sit back, crack open the bickies (or the Vickys ), and find out what to watch from the archives.

    Kelly Rickard: No shouting, no snobs

    In this episode, Hatty Ashdown sits down with comedian, singer, and Welsh national treasure – the working-class pocket powerhouse Kelly Rickard (Winner: Best in Class 2024, Edinburgh Festival Fringe). At a time when we really need this Kelly chats about her background and the self-consciousness that can come with being working class, but why you really can’t say the wrong thing to the right person. Together, Hatty and Kelly dive into why so many mums are drawn to stand-up comedy, juggling gigs with kids, and what makes a “working-class mum” in contrast to the world of middle-class gentle parenting influences. It turns into a big, honest, and funny conversation about class, culture, and motherhood – from the differences (and surprising similarities) between a Welsh upbringing and a Kent one, to the influence of soaps we watched as kids (when we really shouldn’t have been!). As always, you’ll also get forgotten TV gems in Mum Watch with Hatty’s sister Tracey. You can also watch the episode on YouTube https://youtu.be/HxqgcUXvHOg ✨ Produced by Natalie King
