SUNDAY SPECIAL: Mia, Holly & The Attack On Teenage Girls

Last week, Prince Philip died, at 99 years of age, with his wife, The Queen, by his side. Among a sea of tributes, are there some darker truths being ignored? How has the world reacted to the loss of the Duke of Edinburgh? Plus, you might have seen headlines today that schools in some parts of the country are banning the use of the terms “Mum” and “Dad.” Is that true? And, is it possible to hack happiness? The World Happiness Report is out, and there are four things we can learn from it.

You might’ve seen or read about a picture of Khloe Kardashian doing the rounds online this week. It's after the juggernaut Kardashian PR machine worked tirelessly to remove all traces of the image, which was apparently posted without Khloe's consent. The whole debacle has us wondering, have the Kardashians created a body and beauty standard even they can’t live up to? Plus, what is a 'digital leash'? Unions are pushing to let workers untether themselves from the job after hours, but is that a good thing? And, it's been 20 years since Bridget Jones's Diary hit cinemas around the world. How do we feel about Bridget, two decades on? THE END BITS Recommendations: Jessie wants you to listen to the podcast Sentimental Garbage. You can find it here.

You might have read about a big ship over the last week. A very big, very stuck ship. On Tuesday of last week, a 400 meter long, 200,000-tonne ship became wedged across the Suez Canal, in Egypt. So why is this a news story? And why can't we stop laughing at the memes it's generated? Plus, a couples counselor claims that the most common reason couples fall out of love and stop being intimate is because of a pursuer-distancer dynamic that develops over time. So what does it mean if you're the pursuer or the distancer in your relationships, romantic or otherwise? And, is botox the new baseline of beauty standards?

For what feels like the last 100 episodes, we have led the show with the topic of sexual assault. And we’re sick of it. We’re not sick that women are talking about it, but we’re sick of nothing changing. So what next? Plus, Prince Harry has a day job. It's his first office gig, which has left us wondering, does he know how to use email? Make a spreadsheet? Will he have regular catch-ups with his manager? Can you even IMAGINE having Prince Harry as a colleague? And, what is ‘brain octane oil,’ and why is it part of Orlando Bloom’s morning routine?
