   22. #EndSARS

   This week Leah and Vivian delve into the recent protests in Nigeria regarding police brutality and #ENDSARS. Following increased violence against protestors imposed by the Nigerian government and paid hoodlums, SARS (Special Anti-Robbery Squad) has been disbanded but there is still work left to be done. In an attempt to find light moments in the world we discuss our existence, housewife duties and how everyone is pregnant!! *Since we recorded this episode there have been protests occurring across African countries, please see the links below to learn more.

   20. Work Woes, WAP & Indian Matchmaking

   Working is hard; WAP is a bop and dating is hard the world over. This week Vivian and Leah discuss how they're feelings about work at the moment; the undue criticism Cardi B and Meg Thee Stallion's WAP received and whether they too would consider using a matchmaker - all with a little catastrophising sprinkled in.
