About this listen

After losing their mothers to cancer, two washed-up comedians, Charlie and Michael, set out to explore their own stories of love, loss, and grief — and to find a way to honour the memory of the women who raised them. Through candid conversations with incredible, everyday mums, they discover the quiet power, resilience, and nurturing spirit that mothers bring to the world. As they draw out these stories, they also hope to unlock more memories of their own lost relationships. Mumma’s Boys walks the tightrope between grief, and humour, shining a light on just how extraordinary mothers truly are.Michael Argus and Charlie Ranger Social Sciences

  • Episode 6 - Claire Sara and Nina McCann
    Jun 7 2025

    Two Mums for the price of one (that price was $0—we can’t afford to pay our guests).

    Claire Sara and Nina McCann aren’t new to sharing their story. They’ve documented their entire IVF journey on YouTube, helping to demystify the process for so many others.

    In this episode, we have a fun, open, and refreshingly honest chat about IVF, postnatal anxiety, sexual identity, and building a family.

    We know these two will warm your hearts like they did ours.

    In this powerful conversation, counsellor and family therapist Katherine Prefol shares her deeply personal journey of parenting through pain.

    She explores what it means to raise children while navigating the wounds of a difficult childhood — and the grief of losing not only her parents, but her daughter as well. Katherine speaks with honesty and warmth about holding space for both love and loss, and what it means to keep mothering through it all.
