I enjoy this podcast. I look forward to it dropping in my feed. The patreon is a bit too spicy (price-wise) in these current times, however, I do try an endure the adverts so they get some money for their hard work. I have to say though, as embarrassing as it is, I do break out into spontaneous dad-dancing when the intro music comes on. It happens with the pointless theme tune too. Good work ladies.

Brilliant….You’re on fire as always 🔥 . Love you girls. Listened since day one. Thank you for all the work you put into The Trawl. Keep doing what you’re doing 🙌
… but please please remove the awful genocide-supporter Starbucks ads! They’re top of the boycott list!
