Today we spoke about ourselves (introductions), new inventions the waterproof swimscarf, I May Destroy you Michaela Coel’s excellent series on bbc iplayer, Wiley’s antisemitic tweets, BLM what’s happening now, and the UK vs America as regards racism.

Fact Checking:

Nancy references ‘Bubble gum’ as Michaela Coel’s first series, it is ‘Chewing Gum’.

Brown girls do it too podcast- there was no beard Nancy remembered incorrectly. The Veganism section still to fact check.

There is no evidence that Wiley has mental health problems, the opinion was based on the tweets alone which is not a mental health care professionals’ diagnosis.
