Description
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.

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.
