Mason Greenwood was a young up & coming footballer who was making a name for himself at Man United football club over the last 2 seasons before  a disturbing voice note of him allegedly being verbally aggressive and sexually forceful towards his partner was leaked on social media. This resulted in his arrest and his suspension from the club. But in February 2023 all charges were dropped. Chris Brown was charged in 2009 for his assault on his then girlfriend Rihanna - he went to plead guilty, completed 5 years of probation, community service as well as a domestic violence course. But this was 14 years ago - so why is he still being a associated with a single incident when he was just a young man? Should Man United sack Mason Greenwood due to public opinion? Why is society so selective when it comes to forgiveness? Join the conversation and don't for get to leave your comments.

A prenuptial agreement or prenup is a legal document signed by 2 people before they get married setting out each persons share of assets among other things. But why are prenups so controversial and why do women hate them? Doesn't it make sense to have your affairs in order incase something goes wrong in the relationship or is even the thought of a prenup a sign that you are preparing your relationship for failure?

Award winning music producer turned rapper turned fashion icon Kanye West is in the spot light once again and once again its for all the wrong the reasons or so you might think. With his now familiar tirades against his ex wife Kim Kardashian, he has added the likes of Adidas and GAP to his list of frenemies. In one of his latest controversial stunts he decided it was a good idea to dress both himself and his models in 'White Lives Matter' T-shirts igniting an old social media debate on what the BLM movement was all about to begin with and whether or not those words should be taken so lightly by applying them to other races. But was this sequence of events down to the poor condition of YE's mental state or was it just a coincidence that he so happened to be releasing his latest line at paris fashion week and this stunt enabled him to became one of the most trending topics on social media which in-fact would make him a marketing genius? We discuss in episode 61.

Andrew Tate is the former kick boxing professional turned social media influencer has in recent times been cancelled. Although there is a case to be made regarding the impact of his cancellation on his freedom of speech that discussion is for another day. Today we discuss his controversial language and whether or not as an influencer with a large following he has a responsibility to his listeners to ensure that the message they receive from him is not left to interpretation simply because of the use of lazy language. If a man looks after a woman, by being her provider does this make her his property? we discuss in episode 60.

Given the history of male dominance of all things powerful, it may come as a surprise to some to know that the 3 longest serving monarchs in British history have all been women. But no one has rocked that throne like Queen Elizabeth II aka Queen Lizzy or is expected to ever do so again. For 70 years Queen Elizabeth has performed her duty as head of state of the UK with the upmost focus on service and duty. For most of us she is the only monarch we've ever known since she has been present for most the major events over the last nearly 100 years. As head of state she has appointed 15 Prime Ministers from the giant that was Winston Churchill to the current and 3rd female prime minster Liz Truss. She both witnessed and served during World War 2, was present during the UK joining of the European Union, 911, Brexit, Covid-Pandemic and many more historic events in-between. But it hasn't always been smooth sailing during her reign - the loss of princess Diana had a major negative impact on the royal family and the recent family drama with Prince Harry and Meghan Markel as well as that of her favourite son prince Andrew only added to that strain. Her successor prince Charles now takes on the reigns as King Charles III, how long he will reign and whether the royal family continues over the coming generations we do not know. But whether you loved her or loathed her for whatever reason, what can't be denied is that for 70 years she has been the constant that we've all come to know and her exit from the big stage will leave some vary big shoes to fill as her commitment to public duty was unparalleled. So join us in the episode where we discuss the end of the 2nd Elizabethan Era.

After years of protests and rebellious acts of militancy by women in the UK, the Equal Franchise Act of 1928 finally allowed women over 21 to achieve the same voting rights as men. The Equality Act of 2010 gave both women and men the right to equal pay for equal work, with women and men being legally entitled to be paid at the same rate for similar work and work of equal value. With all this said in 2022 it could be argued that not much has changed when it comes to women's equality and they are still under valued and underpaid when compared to their male equivalent. Despite the slow change, it is believed by some men that women are changing tact and are now focusing on attaining positions of power such as CEOs or board member seats in order to amplify their influence over men. And to some men this is proof that the feminist movement is no longer interested in seeking equality with their male counterparts but instead seeks to be superior. But are these concerns well founded or do they simply represent the thoughts of men who are used to it being solely a man's world and are just in fear of becoming redundant? We discuss in episode 58.

Roe vs Wade was a landmark legal ruling by the US supreme court essentially enshrining a woman's choice to have or not have an abortion as a fundamental right. On 24 June 2022 the US supreme not only revisited the initial ruling but over ruled the judgement essentially removing this right and protection from all women across the country. It is no secret that some states have been ready to immediately criminalise abortion as soon as this ruling came to pass. But what is the fundamental question? Many women believe that when it comes to pregnancy it is a woman's body and so it should be her right to choose whether or not to have the child, while others would argue that there is the life of the child to consider and that should be prioritised as it is defenceless. 6 out of the 9 judges were men and so it is not suprising that this ruling went against the 3 women's wishes. Should men have a say on a woman's pregnancy decision? And where does morality fit in all of this? We discuss all this and more in Episode 57.

When it comes to relationships - Whats the difference between settling and compromising? Have you compromised to be with your partner or did you settle because it could be worse? It could be said that how much a man or woman compromises depends on an individuals age and their stage in life. The older a man gets the less reason he has to compromise because he could always date younger ladies while having a successful career. The older a woman gets the more she is willing to compromise because she is on the clock. But are either of these true? we discuss in Episode 56.
