Off Air... with Jane and Fi
There's no Brexit in space
Ep. 239
•
Jane and Fi are wondering how they'd cope with getting the ick on the International Space Station. And whether they can get away with saying the word 'ick'? Is 'peng' a step too far?
They're also joined by author and Sunday Times columnist Hadley Freeman to talk about her memoir 'Good Girls: A Story And Study Of Anorexia'.
If you've been affected by any of the issues in our chat with Hadley then please get in touch on feedback@times.radio and we will point you in the direction of the resources you need.
