About this episode
Namaste Mossies, it's Friday again and this time it's HOT TAKES SZN 2 - go grab yourself a beverage with extra ice because the takes this time are HOT as they come.
We kicked things off with Naina mounting a quick & passionate defence of her opinion from Hot Takes Pt 1 that drew some flak, with a special shoutout to the OG feminist - father Bhan.From there we got into our unreasonably unpopular opinions about the struggles of being drop dead gorgeous, the terrors of being invoice rich but cash poor, and the gaping wealth inequality between influencers and their internet overlords. The girls also wondered about the choice to be childfree, and debated if pets are better than kids (pets - 1, human child - 0, for now). Our studio audience stepped up with some certifiable controversial opinions - that men are the true masters of spreading gossip, and that apparently pigeons deserve justice.
Meanwhile, our listeners were quite UNHINGED with the takes they sent in (NGL we were concerned). We're talking girl code on snitching about cheating friends, and a take on whether gay incest might be... okay?? Hope there’s a mop nearby because your jaw will be on the floor.
Finally: did you know that every time you like comment share follow hype & most importantly SUBSCRIBE to our channel, the gates of heaven open a lil further for you? Go do it and make the angels happy.
