The High Low20 Loka 2020

Cow Hugging, Daddy by Emma Cline & An Exclusive Clip from Joan & Jericha

Today we discuss a love story in Venice, the new "wellness" trend of cow hugging, Matt Hancock's personal app (???) and listeners tell us what they think makes "a good deed". And some things we've been loving, including the feel good Love Life on Netflix. Plus! An exclusive, filthy extract from Joan and Jericha's new book, out on the 29th October.
