Alex and Hum are two accomplished, funny, beautiful, and humble professional women, who now spend too much time trapped under babies, scrolling on their phones.
What horrors and delights has the algorithm served them while their children sleep? Whose influence are they under this week and what products are they shilling? And what has the internet done to their gorgeous, gorgeous brains?
Join these tired (but hot) mums as they dissect the insane products that have popped up on their feeds that week, and dive into this strange online world where tech, branding, psychology and motherhood collide.

Tactical Dad Gear with James Colley

How much would you pay for a knitted scrunchie? $10? $20? $60?? What if it promised to make you hot, even while breastfeeding?

Plus, Alex has had an offline experience that has made her mad, when her downstairs neighbours complained about her kids.

Baby Shoes will be taking a break over the holidays and will be back in the new year!

The $60 Scrunchie That Will Make You Hot

How much would you need to be paid to cheat on your partner? It's a question Hum and Alex spend an inordinate amount of time discussing this episode, and come up with wildly different answers.

Plus, we discuss the trend of getting your kid's baby teeth turned into jewellery, and get mad over a parenting influencer stealing her's kid's fun.

A Ring Made Of Your Baby’s Teeth

Today on Baby Shoes we're joined by comedian, writer and pillow enthusiast/hater, Bec Melrose! She shares with us her birth story (there's a twist), why she bought one of the products we have literally made fun of, and whether she kept the umbilical cord.
