Listen to our subscriber episode: An Argy Bargy About Rich People

The noise-cancelling industry is booming. We discuss the surprising way people deal with loneliness ... but the irony is, it’s very anti-social.

Plus, from lighting candles to gentle back rubs, Mia, Elfy and Clare unpack why your partners attempts to initiate intimacy might be making you flinch.  

And… have you ever felt sad during life moments that should be joyful? We dive into “perfect moment syndrome” and why so many of us cry at birthdays. 

The End Bits: 

• Mia's piece on the heartbreaking situation in Israel: What it doesn't feel safe to say
