What took so long? They are pleased but aggrievedIn this episode the Trawl ladies share what happened when Marina went onto LBC to confront Nick Ferrari in an exchange which went viral. They discuss the entire Gary Lineker brouhaha that has got the nation talking and share some prose which Jemma particularly found very helpful when struggling to know how to feel. In an episode which feels more like collective therapy, Marina and Jemma share incredible clips, heart wrenching clips and some very powerful words. This one is for everyone who has chosen to use their voice, their platform, their social media, their time, their energy just to care. It's called The Ache of Being AwakePudding is by the very talented Martin Kerr Thank you for sharing and do tweet us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcastPatreonhttps://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcastYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawlTwitterhttps://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcastBlueSkyhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetrawl.bsky.socialCreated and Produced by Jemma Forte & Marina PurkissEdited by Max Carrey
