Today's episode sees Claire and Lisa discussing how they're doing all the cliched lockdown things, What Hurts Now (the cat's indignation at having no "me time"), the phenomenon of having no news, why they loved the story about Julian Assange having babies and rereading old favourite books. Add in why men are all shaving their heads and a bit of Victoria Beckham's workout -- what more could you want?
