| 0:00.0 | Coming up on Digit. The lodger said to me, is that not an insult that someone goes to a fancy dress party dressed as you and Joe? And I was like, absolutely not. Hey, guys, do you think you could just like calm it down a little bit? And then the next morning, Coco was like, I can't believe you shouted at my friends. Yes, fine, I'm turning the music down. Yes, And then you just get to that point of all of that |
| 0:23.0 | all of that right after this. This episode of Digit is sponsored by QVC. Zoe, do you ever feel like |
| 0:36.0 | this time of year just flies by? Oh, absolutely. One minute |
| 0:39.7 | it's bonfire night, the next minute you're frantically wrapping presents at midnight. There is so |
| 0:44.7 | much to do for everyone else that you forget to stop for even five minutes. Exactly. That's why |
| 0:51.3 | menopause your way at QVC is such a game changer. It's not just shopping. It's |

| 2:09.1 | Digit is sponsored by Stripe and Stair. Can I say, Joe, I think comfort has become my |
| 2:14.5 | number one priority with clothes now, especially underwear. Hell yeah. I mean, life is simply too short to be uncomfortable. |
| 2:23.4 | There are items in my wardrobe. I think maybe there's one thong and maybe there's a couple of crop tops like brawlets, which I really like, that are quite tight because I like to be compressed if I've got a t-shirt on. |
| 3:30.1 | But on the days when I don't need to wear those, I just want to hang loose and I want to have a really nice soft fabric. And that is my ultimate dream bit of underwear. That's why I love stripe and stare so much. Their knickers are unbelievably comfortable. They're soft, they're breathable, really kind to your skin. Yeah, they're made from natural fibres. There are no nasty chemicals. And I think you really notice the difference straight away. And I love that they don't just stop at knickers. Their brawlets are brilliant, no underwire, no digging in. And their sleepwear is so comfy, you won't want to take it off in the morning. Honestly, once you start wearing them, they just slowly take over your drawer. They do, and they do them in lovely colours. It feels like one of those small upgrades that makes a huge difference to your day. Yeah, and also, Stripe and Stair are a female-led B-Corp, which is something I really love supporting. If you want to try them, visit Stripe and Stair.com and use the code DigIt 20. That's DIGG, IT, 20 for 20% off. |
