Summary

Everyone agrees that intimacy coordinators are a good idea, but what do they actually do? This week, Mick chats to Ita O’Brien about her work, including in Michaela Coel’s I May Destroy You, to find out more. We're also catching up with Jen on maternity leave to see how she and Lyra are doing. In Dunleavy Does Disaster we watch The Last Sharknado because, well because one of you asked us to. Er, thanks? In the Bush Telegraph, we're talking about how Trump can't actually delay the next election, what the hell is going on with Coronavirus in this country and the "white men not nominated for a Booker" row. And in Sexism of the Week, we're pondering #challengeaccepted. Tuck in!
