It's Saturday Bitchin' and this time our Mick needs to vent about the (inevitable) backlash to the #MeToo movement. But don't worry, she's also solved the problem of the patriarchy – as long as no one (Hannah) gets too distracted by David Bowie's crotch, Friends or He-Man.

SIM Ep 70 Bitchin' 3: Toby Young Jan 13, 2018

Show notes

It's Saturday Bitchin' and our Hannah's getting her tits in a twist again. Know who'd probably tweet about that? Toby (fucking) Young, Titmaster General and all-round ridiculous egg. Since we recorded this, he's stepped down from the Office for Students, presumably to concentrate on tweeting about the lady lumps, but there are many MANY reasons he should never have got the role in the first place. Over to you, Dunleavy.
