After Work Drinks

Good afternoon to everyone except Chris Dawson! In this episode, we discuss Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas’ insanely OTT wedding extravaganza (#SponCon?) and do a deep-dive into gaslighting and emotional abuse off the back of Mel B’s tell-all book. And, of course, we discuss the arrest of Chris Dawson, who has finally been charged with the murder of his wife, Lyn, 37 years later.
