Welcome to Unsolicited Advice With Mum, hosted by us, Jenny and Zoë Ottaway. And look, we use the word 'advice' very loosely here. This podcast is basically just us sitting at the kitchen bench gossiping. We're talking about everyday dramas, dating and bridging our generational gap over all those hilarious, unfiltered life moments we probably shouldn't be sharing with the internet. But here we are. Hit follow and hang out with us!
