Hi folks, just a quick note from us here! The first and second portion of this episode were recorded a week apart, during which the #SpeakingOut movement began. As such, during the portion we normally read through tweets, we instead had a discussion regarding how our thoughts have evolved in the last week. It wasn't a very easy discussion to have but we didn't feel we could carry on the rest of the episode without addressing what has happened.
