G7, The Problem with 'Woke' & Another Oatly Saga Two's Company

    • Society & Culture

 
Welcome to episode 9 of Two’s Company, a fortnightly podcast hosted by Sophie Hellyer and Grace Kingswell. In today’s episode, we discuss the recent G7 summit held in Cornwall and our thoughts and opinions around that, a recent Cornwall school’s enforcement of shorts to be worn under skirts to mitigate against up-skirting (and everything that’s wrong with that), plus the man that got swallowed whole by a humpback whale and survived. We also spend some time dissecting the term ‘woke’ and what it means. 
 
There are, of course, some vagina facts (did you know your vagina is like wine?), questions from you in the mailbag, and many laughs and fun-filled moments.
 
For more from us we can be found at: @gracekingswell and @sophiehellyer. If you have questions for our mailbag please email twoscompanyshiz@gmail.com
