In our 110th episode of Beyond the Bump, we do a bit of a recap of what we've been up to over the festive break.
We asked you guys to send in any stories of your festive season. There were highs, there were lows, there were gifting disasters, there were all sorts of things.
So, know that if you had highs, you're not alone. If you had lows, you're not alone. If you had COVID, you're definitely not alone because there was a lot of that.
And yeah, we hope you absolutely LOVE this episode!

Just a quick warning, in this episode, we do talk about the mythology of Santa! There is also a lot of piss and poo talk too. So yeah, if you're feeling generally queasy, maybe steer clear!
