We’ve all been there—either as the yeller or the helpless victim—hearing the word “MUUUUUM” screamed across a room, a house, or a playground.
Well, one U.S. state has decided to make a sport out of it, adding a “Mum Calling Competition” to their State Fair lineup. Think of it like the viral “Husband Calling Contest” but with a lot more patience involved (because, let’s be real, mums hear it a million times a day).
Inspired by this, Hit1047’s Wilko & Courts thought, Why not bring this glorious chaos to Canberra? And set out to crown the city’s best “MUM caller.”
A bunch of kids called into the show, giving it their all to see who could deliver the best “MUUUUUUUM“
So, how did they do? Who won the title of Canberra’s top “MUM” caller?
Take a listen and find out—warning: it might bring back some hilarious (and possibly traumatic) memories:
