First Things First

With it being Mother's Day on the weekend, you might know that Brooke & Matty mother's aren't in their lives anymore and they had a different relationship even when they were. 

However, there is one special lady that helped mould who Matty Mills is by teaching him, giving him a safe space and consistency. Her name is Pip. 

Today Matty dedicates this episode to Pip, and opens up about his family life when he was younger and his Mum's struggles with abuse and addiction. But more importantly, how Pip came into his life as a teacher, but remains today as one of Matty's most influential people.

We're letting loose on those things the irk us by listening and not judging... 
Although when it comes to people who can't pronounce things properly, or those that are just "jumping on instagram" there might be a bit of judgement.
