Phwoooooar, episode 8! Sorry it's a spot late, but the gals have got an absolute corker for you. Chloe and Jo welcome their second chronically fully sick guest, the wonderful and talented Nadine Chemali!! This ep delves into stuff like having kids when you're a spoonie, how much investigative surgeries suck a heap of shit, cultural differences that can exist in the world of pain and chronic illness, and how disgustingly rife the medical industry is with fatphobia (about which Nadine has an absolute CRACKER of a story). Also WOOOO MORE SPOONIE HOTLINE! thanks love you bye
