  • Unpopular opinions- Do you Agree or Disagree?
    Welcome back to our SpeakEasy podcast, with our guests Ali and Ouday for this weeks episode, we take our turn on some popular unpopular opinions like soggy cereal or going out of your way to buy cartons of milk as a drink of choice. We loudly agree that Christmas should not be mentioned until December, to at least let your pumpkins die off first, let alone putting up a tree in your living room. We question why taking compliments can be so hard as well as whether wearing fake tan is okay or is that somehow culturally insensitive to people of colour and different ethnicities who don’t always find it easy growing up due to their naturally beautiful skin and much more, enjoy ;) !
