2025/04/21

You can't make a Tomelette without breaking a few Gregs. (IYKYK).It's our fiftieth episode! We ask ourselves how did we get here? Both logistically and emotionally... and we talk you through the newest genre bending story from Olivie Blake, which sends us both into a bit of an existential crisis when we look at value judgements based on children that shape their identities. Heavy sh*t - but there's also a bunch of non serious avoidance after that! Here's to the next 50!
