Summary

In this week’s podzine Hannah chats to author Anna Cosslett about her new book Your Life As I Knew It, about bringing up her severely autistic son, Huw. We’re joined in the studio by our resident consumer expert and all-round lovely person Vix Leyton to give us the lowdown on bagging a Black Friday bargain and what the Brexit is happening in the world of retail. There’s electoral Wacky Races, questionable gynaecological procedures and some cheeky identity theft opportunities in the Bush Telegraph, homage paid to boxing great Nicola Adams in Jenny Off The Blocks, and quite the buzz (sorry not sorry) about Dunleavy Does Disaster this week as we watch The Swarm.
