MUMHEADS

MUMHEADS is THE podcast for all things Philadelphia Mummers. This podcast is designed to discuss the news, ideas, experiences, and the people who make up the culture of the Philadelphia Mummers.

Though the Philadelphia Mummers parade and compete just one day a year, on New Year's Day; there's a deeply rooted culture and history behind this way-of-life hobby, filled with incredible stories and events.

MUMHEADS will get you behind the scenes of the Mummers. From personal stories of friendships, to the much anticipated battle for a club championship on New Year's Day, we're going to take you there.

It's not just sequins and feathers. It's close relationships and heated rivalries. It's creative design of costuming and productions. It's labor intensive construction of scenery. As New Year's Day nears, it's hours upon hours of rehearsal time and building sets. The Philadelphia Mummers presents a lifestyle like no other.

Join us as we talk to the Mummers who make up this great tradition, and the fans who follow along, all year long, leading up to the big day.
