My my my it’s a busy week for the patriarchy. Hannah and Aphra discuss icky defections from Tory to Labour, Eurovision, Palestine and pinkwashing, a controversial breakthrough in gene therapy and an update (a nice one!) to a previous story covered on the pod. Digressions include Aphra forgetting how to speak English and Hannah’s Gay Abandon.
