Look, we are deep in the bowels of winter, so it's understandable if everyone is a bit MEH. We say that, because that's exactly where we are, so if you're in the zone for some sort of uplifting hour then I'm sorry we're not that this week (lol). But, in saying that, we do give 2000% to our discussions around trashy TV. Are we bad for watching Love Island and Sex/Life or are we simply allowed escapism? We vote the latter.

So many of you have been writing in recently with amazing career questions.

Enter the wonderful, smart and just damn fantastic Cassie Roma.

There is a whole lot of raging happening in this week's episode... Some of it we're blaming on the weather, some of it we're blaming on the government, some of it we're blaming on ourselves.

We sit down with Matt and Jack (well over a Zoom haha) to talk fa...
