    Guy friends, side friends and friends who take the piss. In this episode, we unpack the many different kinds of friendships, including how to know if you're the side friend and what it all means.

    Plus, a devastated daughter’s warning, the Bridgerton behind the scenes goss you didn't know you needed, and a podcast Jessie wants you to listen to. It’s our recommendations. 

    And, our best and worsts of the week which include a dirty rat, cat-calling and a sick-child’s very adult requests.

    This week, a deadly air strike in Rafah in southern Gaza killed at least 45 Palestinians and wounded dozens of others. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has referred to what happened as a “tragic mishap”, and yet, emerging reports indicate that such an attack has happened again. We discuss the recent horrors of what happened and the world's response.

    And, a woman who ran a half-marathon has gone viral, after her husband ushered their kids into her path just as she was about to win. We unpack how wrong the internet's reaction was and why it reminds us a little of Taylor Swift. 

    Plus, Generation Alpha have officially entered the chat and everything’s "skibidi toilet". Confused? Don't worry, we explain.

    Lizzo's DNA test might have said she was "100% THAT BITCH" but she's also the woman who has decided to take the high road regarding a South Park skit about her. Was it the right call? We unpack the pop star's very public reaction.

    Plus, you might be able to blame your star sign for your "creepiest" habit. An astrologist has revealed all... and we put it to the test. 

    And, what is considered ‘middle class’ in 2024? And can an A-list star be it? Holly, Mia and Jessie have thoughts, after one Hollywood star's class claim.
