The gals are away enjoying the Christmas and New Year. Enjoy some of our fave episodes from 2022!This weeks episode has been a long time coming (and had to be recorded twice to get it perfect) and it's all about when/ how/ and IF you can separate the art from the artist.

The gals are away enjoying the Christmas and New Year.
