This week we talk Women; from the strong ladies we have in our lives to dangerous female friendships to global issues like gender disparity and body image. Also, we hope you like the new intro. Bonus points if you know where it's from.
DISCLAIMER:
For topics in this episode of a more serious nature, such as body image and sexual assault, it is an unfortunate fact that they are more common than believed to be. Both of us have personally dealt with both issues. Talking about things in hindsight may have resulted in some cynicism about these topics in the episode. This was not the intention and we apologise, we do understand the weight of these issues and do not wish to insult anyone who is currently dealing with, or has dealt with, these issues in their life.
