What does life actually look like six weeks into new motherhood? Grace Rouvray - actor, producer, celebrant, and now first-time mum - joins Kee and Kelly from the thick of the newborn trenches to share her raw and honest experience. From months of relentless nausea to a birth that went nothing like the plan, Grace opens up about the physical toll, the identity shift, the joy, and the grief that all come bundled with a baby. She talks openly about bleeding nipples, formula top-ups, the reality of baby blues, and why she’s calling it: one and done.

The Billionaires Can Get In The Bin
What’s the point of skipping a plastic straw if Bezos is throwing a foam party on a $500M yacht? Kelly sets off a fiery chat about billionaire greed, climate hypocrisy, and the exhausting pressure on regular people to save the planet - one soggy paper straw at a time. With Jeff Bezos' wedding as the jumping-off point (and yes, Oprah was there), the girls unpack the absurdity of wealth worship, the carbon footprint of private jets, and the growing sense of “why bother?” in the face of it all. Is it even possible to care enough anymore?
