The Kitchen is closed for this episode. Instead, you have two strong Jamaican women in the public eye; Rustie Lee and Simone Riley. Simone is a radio presenter for BBC Manchester and she joins Rustie today, discussing their shared heritage and culture, going through their traditional slang and impressions for us, and the important history of the Windrush era. We're grateful for Simone's honesty and openness as they discuss pregnancies, miscarriages and post natal depression.

This one will hit you in the feels for all the right reasons and it's truly inspirational listening to two wonderful women being so honest, open and raw. Always have hope and always speak up.
