Together, we dive headfirst into your wildest confessions — moments you saw red and snapped. Honestly? After reading these… I’m never crossing any of you.
We also get into the big questions:
Is revenge ever justified when it comes to LGBT hate? Charlie shares her very unique method of dealing with a dodgy tradie who tried to rip her off, and we ask when forgiveness is actually the better option — if ever.

18 November 2025, 8:45 am - 35 minutes 46 secondsDr James Greenwood: Why Aren’t We Talking About LGBTQ+ Prostate Health?
Dr James Greenwood joins us today!
You might know him as BBC Morning Live’s ridiculously handsome vet, but to me he’s a dear friend — and honestly one of the wisest, kindest humans I know. We planned to talk about your questions on queer parenting … but instead we got completely swept into a powerful and deeply personal story James chose to share.
Along the way:
- chaotic coming-out stories (in front of a whole audience, naturally),
- My top tip for marriage that nobody asked for
- and the rarest discovery of all: a gay man with fully intact mental health.
It’s heartfelt, hilarious, and precisely why I love James and think you will too — click play now. Chris x
