FTFO about Summer Obsessions -
This is a one-off summer special and hopefully a bit of light-hearted relief from the relentless heat. They cover the weather, Love Island and the World Cup...so a real mixed bag and hopefully something for everyone. Why have we spent the hottest summer of our lifetimes watching good looking single people in a villa in Majorca? What is gaslighting? Why do we start to care so much about football tournaments? And is it ok to fancy Gareth Southgate?
