The ladies discuss their favourite Christmas ads and whether the Sainsbury's Gravy Song ad is an example of diversity and inclusion or a supermarket trying too hard to be woke, if we’ve become too obsessed with taking pictures and videos to post on social media and lost the ability to be present in the moment or share an unfiltered view on our lives, the Daily Mail’s recent article on footballer Marcus Rashford and how much money we should be donating to charity vs. investing in securing our own financial futures, and whether all pet names for a husband or partner are acceptable, including “Daddy”.
