From balloon popping to ripping paper, to famous celebrities that enjoy the brown stuff a little too much!! ..... we found it all! What a crazy episode this was haha.

This week on DTM, Barney’s off, which means Jamie’s bringing her bestie on to co-host! It's been a month, and we’ve missed you all. After six weeks abroad and juggling a night-shift job, burnout has been real.

Tune in as presenter Shanie Ryan (or Sinclair, now a year into marriage) shares her experiences raising her 4-year-old son, River, as a vegan in a world full of judgment. She’ll also delve into the challenges of freelance parenting and the transition from toddler to full-blown child. Barney, we miss you, but trust us, this is an episode you don’t want to miss!

We're back with a brand-new episode of "Don't Tell Mum" after a brief (and much-needed) hiatus! Jamie returns fresh from Bali, and Barney is back from Saudi Arabia for a quick pit stop before heading off again for another three weeks. We catch up on all the travel tales, parenting challenges, and everything in between.

One of the biggest updates? Rokit’s big move to a "big boy bed!" We chat about how this milestone went down, the highs and lows of the transition, and why it’s such a significant step for both parents and kids. Plus, we’ll explain why we missed an episode or two—sorry about that! Life’s been a bit of a whirlwind, but we’re thrilled to be back.

We also rave about our latest parenting hack: the Ollie the Owl Clock from Tommee Tippee. If you’re struggling with early risers, this might just be the solution you need—it's been a total game changer for us.

In this episode, we're also focusing on keeping our facts straight. We tend to talk a lot of nonsense, so don’t hesitate to fact-check us as we go! And, of course, we’re sharing what’s on our summer reading list, including Britney Spears' The Woman in Me and Colleen Hoover's It Ends With Us. Plus, we couldn’t resist diving into a Deadpool review—complete with spoilers!

Join us for a fun mix of travel stories, parenting insights, and some great summer reading recommendations. We’re glad to have you back with us!

This week on Don't Tell Mum, things are getting a little... colorful in our vocabulary department. Rokit, our adorable (but increasingly vocal) toddler, seems to be developing a speech impediment alongside a surprising fondness for some not-so-kid-friendly words. We'll delve into the world of toddler speech development and how to navigate those awkward moments when your little one drops an F-bomb.

But wait, there's more! Jamie, has discovered a newfound fascination with true crime documentaries. Should barney be worried?

Just remember, what happens on the podcast, stays on the podcast... right, Mum?

Hey parents, we're back on track and ready to dish! This week, we're diving deep into YOUR hilarious parenting fails (because let's be honest, they're all gold). Plus, are we raising tiny dictators? We're freaking out (low-key) about the signs of a narcissist as apparently it starts as babies and apparently the parents are the reason!!

Speaking of meltdowns, the Bluey obsession in our house is REAL and we delve a little deeper into the origins of this beautiful show. And in a desperate attempt to feel young again, we challenge ourselves to a 10-year-old knowledge showdown. Will our adult brains triumph,or will our egos get stomped flatter than yesterday's pancakes? If anyone saw Jamies instagram story

Join us for laughs, confessions (the good, the bad, and the oh-so-embarrassing), and a whole lot of fun!!!
