About It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere

It's Five O'Clock Somewhere is a hilarious 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. Hosted by LibSyn

   Pigeons and Productivity

   This week, we attempt to talk productivity and why women are always expected to be busy, and occupied.  Except, we decide to talk about literally anything else instead, including the time Gill nearly joined the Scientologists by mistake, thereby thwarting the patriarchy and their outdated notions for us...

   Literary Chic

   This week we dip our distinctly unfashionable toes into the murky world of fashion, to discuss the latest trend of 'Literary Chic.'  Jo's trousers provide a wardrobe malfunction, and she invents a new word, which leads to Gill having her best day after rummaging in some long forgotten places!  What is Jo's word?  What does Gill's rummaging reveal?  You'll have to listen and find out!
