Brummie Mummies: Laudable’s brand new parenting podcast!
Laudable is launching a brand new parenting podcast and we’re all super excited about it! Here’s why you should be too...
Those of you based in the Midlands will no doubt already be familiar with the Brummie Mummies name.
Since 2015, it has been a much-loved hub for parents in Birmingham, known for bringing families together both online and at sell-out social events.
The incredible parenting community has been a lifeline for many - especially over this difficult year - sharing the best ideas on things to do with the family, along with lots of top tips and handy guides for mums and dads with children of all ages.
And the Brummie Mummies podcast is now here as a welcome addition to the Brummie Mummies brand.
The show will share inspiring stories from Birmingham mums and dads, and it is brimming with useful advice and suggestions on all things parenting.
The podcast will be packed full of tips from real Birmingham parents as show host and Brummie Mummies founder Zoe Chamberlain chats to mums and dads of all backgrounds about how to juggle family life and all that comes with it.
The Brummie Mummies podcast is a Laudable production brought to you by Birmingham Live and Brummie Mummies, and is produced and edited by Laudable’s Matt Millard.
You can listen to the trailer for the new series below and the first episodes will be landing at the end of this month!

The North in Numbers is back!
The North in Numbers - the podcast that looks at the human stories behind the statistics - has returned for a second series! Here’s what to expect from episode one of series two…
Annie Gouk, deputy editor of data and multimedia at Reach, is back to examine the figures that affect the region, speaking to experts and those most affected to get their take on the issues facing northern communities.
In the opening episode of the new series, Annie explores the state of pubs and bars across the North - from the long-term decline of drinking establishments to the recent boom in major cities.
And of course, The North in Numbers also looks at the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on our favourite boozers.
In the past decade, the North has lost one in every nine of its pubs and bars - with some regions being impacted even worse.
Speaking to publicans and business owners, Annie learns how drinking habits have changed over the years, and why it may not be all doom and gloom.
You can also listen to the previous series of The North in Numbers on all major podcasting platforms, including Apple and Spotify.
The Steamie: full steam ahead to the Scottish elections
It’s full steam ahead with the Scottish elections on the horizon. The new episode of The Steamie takes us one stop closer to May 6th…
Things are ramping up with only weeks before Scots go to the polls to select a new government in Holyrood.
Working with political journalists from The Scotsman, our podcast guides you through the changing landscape of Scottish politics, from Scottish independence to education and everything in between.
This week, hosts Conor Matchett and Gina Davidson speak to Douglas Ross, the leader of the Scottish Conservatives.
Mr Ross discusses his party's approach to the independence question, why he believes unionism has not broken through decisively, and the alleged “hypocrisy” around the inquiries into Nicola Sturgeon and his own party's behaviour while in government.
Alexander Brown, The Scotsman's Westminster correspondent, also makes his debut appearance, and discusses how Mr Ross is viewed by his colleagues and the UK government's approach to the union.
Look out for brand new episodes of The Steamie every Tuesday!
Exciting times at Laudable HQ!
There’s plenty of new episodes of our favourite shows to listen to - and brand new podcasts on the way.
Have a lovely weekend, and as always, stay safe, stay positive, stay informed, and stay tuned!
