    Hosted this week by Sara Crichton along with co-hosts Esther and Sam. In store for you guys this week is Lockdown Loneliness - 3 very different accounts, emotional conversations, more from our weekly fave feature - ‘Would You Rather’ - albeit more reserved than last weeks antics! A very open and honest discussion around mental health! See a more serious side to the girls this week! A must listen for anyone who is feeling down, out of control and who wants to be happy! As always - laced with laughter, profanities and sarcasm! **Disclaimer - Do not listen in front of children as there is discussion around a very specific adult secret you won’t want the kids to hear!

  • Episode 2 - Don’t be a dick!
    Hosted by Sam Sisson, joined by Esther and Sara. It’s WORLD Breastfeeding week! We introduce our first ever guest - the lovely Louby - and discuss how we each fed our babies - a mix of breast and bottle between us all! A giggly little game of ‘WOULD YOU RATHER’ which leaves Sara red faced, finished off with talking about our post pregnancy bodies and how we feel there is pressure from society to look a certain way which somehow moves on to being ‘kind to oneself’! As always there are some profanities, a whole load of laughter and plenty of sarcasm! You got this ladies! Enjoy!
