It's Five O'Clock Somewhere is a new podcast from authors, bloggers and great friends, Jo Middleton and Gill Sims. In it, Gill and Jo kick back with a cocktail and have a bit of fun discussing random topics including but not limited to, parenting, hormones, menopause, weird nineties sex tips, and relationships. Oh, and we also proffer advice we are in no way qualified to give in our regular problem page slot. Jo Middleton is the creator of the award winning Slummy Single Mummy blog, and the author of Playgroups and Prosecco, and Gill Sims is the author of the bestselling Why Mummy series of books, The Saturday Night Sauvignon Sisterhood, and the Peter and Jane blog. We met at an event several years ago, where we bonded over how much we were missing our pets, but not our children. Subsequent meetings saw us crashing a wedding, starting a party in a hotel bar we had persuaded the night porter to open, and liberating a bottle of tequila from a terrifying sausage conglomeration in Brighton. We have not yet been arrested on a night out, but give it time. Get in touch with us by email at itsfiveoclocksomewherepodcast@hotmail.com, or follow us on Instagram @its5oclocksomewherepodcast, on Facebook It's Five O'Clock Somewhere and even on Twitter @5OClock_Podcast. We don't do TikTok. Our children have forbidden us. Also, it scares us. Produced by James Ede, BeHeard Hosted by LibSyn2022 Parenting & Families Relationships

    This week Jo gets Gill's hopes up with the question 'Should children be banned?' and promptly dashes said hopes when it turns out Jo didn't mean generally banned, just that some establishments should be adult only. Also, Gill shares hairdressing tips and her rather Victorian attitudes to parenting, and Jo reveals some rather niche bucket list items...

    This week we are supposed to be talking about Easter, but our attempt to google strange Easter traditions from around the world takes a slightly dark turn, which would probably go down well in Norway, where apparently Easter is all about crime novels, Gill experiments with an ALCOHOL FREE beverage, and Jo feels the urge to reassure us all that she has never murdered a mink, but apparently believes all furry animals come from Russia. These statements from Jo may have had something to do with the fact she was most assuredly NOT enjoying an alcohol free beverage...

    We're back! After a very long hiatus, we have finally got our act together and returned to podcasting, with our signature brand of day drinking, rambling, and puerile and inappropriate humour. Once described as 'listening in to a chat with your two best friends', we hope you have as much fun listening to this as we did making it!
