We’ve shamelessly stolen the title of this week's podcast from our guest, writer and columnist Lucy Mangan whose book Are We Having Fun Yet? is out today. You will have read her TV column in The Guardian, you will have nodded in vehement recognition at her columns in Weekend and Stylist, and now here’s her first novel, a frank and fizzy look at family life – it’s funny, heartfelt writing with sharp corners that you bump into and go ouch, yes! That’s me! We talk about the female load, feminism, all the FFSs…we had fun and got furious…just the way we like it.

PLUS There’s some bonus pelvic floor wisdom from psychologist Dr Meg Aroll

PS: This podcast was bravely brought to you by pelvic floor trainer Innovo. They are offering listeners £55 off the full kit using the code MIDULT55. Time to give ‘Inner Strength’ a whole new meaning.... https://www.myinnovo.com/uk/the-midults/
