It’s been a HUGE year, so inside we reflect on the sheer volume of things Em and Michael achieved this year, they also talk their Xmas gift wishlist (which includes several many #TheNorthFace references *wink, wink*). There’s also AI Twilight, Michael's incredible new gig as a 'trophy wife' at Sundance, and the risks of gifting things to Em. Em has learnt much from her recent dating experiences and wants to talk on that, plus the joys of the love of friends and family, and that elusive quest for secure attachment in a world of ‘low effort’ Hinge profiles (don’t worry, the screenshots are being collected for a future stand-up show). We unpack Gwyneth Paltrow's bonkers Goop Holiday Guide, which includes a $105 candle that smells of pasta water…for reals. Then it’s time to BRING ON THE DIVAS! After debuting it last year, Michael is returning with his selection of the Top 10 Diva Moments of 2025.
