Justice system reforms, relics of relationships past, affordable sustainable sanitary products & dating age limits.
The ladies discuss if justice can be served through financial payouts following the $12 million settlement paid to the family of Breonna Taylor, a Black woman murdered by police officers, whether you should delete all traces of your ex from social media or have the right to ask your partner to do so, if sanitary products should be made free in the UK and how alternative sanitary products could help fight period poverty, and whether age is just a number when it comes to dating and relationships.
