The Mental Load

This week, we are having a bit of a chat about the dreaded Mental Load, and why it almost always seems to fall on women?  There is some ranting (especially about people who describe fathers as 'babysitting' their own children), there is some science, and there is (obviously) some railing against the Patriarchy (sometimes we wonder if we should have called this podcast 'F*ck the Patriarchy').   If you are feeling overwhelmed, overworked, misunderstood, and a bit alone, hopefully this episode will at least reassure you that you are not the only one!
