SIM 459 Pod 139: Resisting, rethinking and remaking a perfectly good dress

SIM 459 Pod 139: Resisting, rethinking and remaking a perfectly good dress

January is a good time to try to get on top of your finances, so Hannah's been on the Zoom to author and podcaster Selina Flavius to talk about her new book Black Girl Finance and why we should all talk a bit more about money. There's a preview to this week's cracker of a Chops, as Mickey catches up up with political commentator and activist Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu to talk about dismantling structural racism, the big problem of performative allyship, and handing Piers Morgan his arse on a plate. In Jenny Off The Blocks, Jen's bidding a fond (ish) farewell to Phil Neville and we chat Grenfell Tower, the Irish Mother and Baby Homes Inquiry, and "flawed" Phil Spector in BT. Plus, grab your linen suit and try to remember where you left that fully-loaded bifter, because in Rated or Dated we're watching 1986's Pretty In Pink.
