Summary

It's shameless plug time, as Ellie and Helen discuss their new Scummy Mummies book! And keeping them in check is fabulous Glamour editor Jo Elvin! The Scummies reveal how they met, how they got their book deal, and how much wine they consumed during the writing process. Plus, find out why they have to keep their famous catsuits in a hermetically sealed bag. It's not all book talk - Helen explains why she hates athleisure wear, and Ellie reminisces about the time she took a pee in the middle of Clapham Common. There's an insightful analysis of the British and Australian education systems, and some chat about shagging. Jo finds out if her Scummy Mummy Confession made it into the book, and Helen and Ellie read out their favourites. We also find out what Jo's own book is going to be about. The Scummy Mummies Book is out this Thursday 9 March, priced at barely a fiver. The Glamour podcast, Hey It's OK, is published every week.
