This episode kicks off with an email that struck a nerve — and judging by the phones, a lot of listeners had opinions.

Niall reads out a message from a wife who’s furious after her husband only mentioned his work Christmas party days before it happens — no partners invited, free bar involved, and all the usual “sure nothing ever happens” reassurances that nobody fully believes.

Is she being controlling… or just realistic?

Niall opens the lines to callers, starting with AJ, who says she’s 100% on the woman’s side. According to AJ, you can’t trust men once drink, hormones and other women are thrown into the mix — and pretending otherwise is just naïve. From there, the debate explodes.

Are work Christmas parties harmless fun?

Or are they a well-known danger zone everyone jokes about — but never admits to?

Is asking your partner not to go a fair boundary… or a massive red flag?

And should anyone be expected to stay home while their other half hits a free bar with colleagues?

Expect strong opinions, uncomfortable truths, plenty of laughs — and more than a few people feeling seen.
