About this listen

Two mums. Too much coffee. And just enough brain cells left to start a podcast.

Join Emma and Chloe every week as they bring you the best of both worlds: magical children’s stories for little ears, and honest, hilarious, and sometimes chaotic mum talk for the grown-ups.

Tuesdays are all about kids — cosy, engaging audiobook episodes that turn Storytime into screen-free magic. Fridays are for the mums — open chats about parenting wins, fails, and everything in between, sparked by the themes in each story.

Think bedtime stories meets mum club — with a side of sleep deprivation, spilled snacks, and plenty of laughter.

So, whether you’re looking for five minutes of peace to entertain your little one, or a friendly voice reminding you you’re not the only one reheating your tea for the fifth time… you’ve found your people
