Get A Grip with Angela Scanlon and Vicky Pattison
Smutty Books Have CHANGED My Sex Life
It's weirdly educational in the studio as the ladies dive into some mind-blowing facts sent in by the Gagglers, including one about Cleopatra that sends Vicky into full-on mansplain mode. There’s also a big old “f*** it” moment from listener Liz, who’s taken a leap of faith, plus a spicy message about smutty books that might just transform your sex life.
