January 30, 2019 025 - Kid Drag Queens, Six Nations & more
Sleepy Ash joins in with Matt to talk about subscribers topics which include Kid Drag Queens such as Lactatia and Desmond Is Amazing - at what point is it too much? The two peas talk about some of the stories that have been making low impact on the news... including these kid drag queens dancing in bars and being photographed next to "naked" adult men! Next topic, is the six nations - not much to go off at this stage as teams have not been announced, but will be a good tournament for sure - with Ireland taking the lead! (hopefully)...

We also tried some new recording software, so hopefully that makes a massive difference :)
