It’s a proper kitchen-table catch-up this week as Terrie and David go from Irish surnames and dodgy glasses, to the absolute headwreck of top-up phones, loud chewing, and trying to get five minutes’ peace in a house full of kids and dogs. They recap the Stellar Awards (arriving last, of course), share the “good news segment” about pets finally being allowed on public transport, and get into the big one: social media for kids, digital footprints, and why platforms should be doing more. Plus, Miles’ first birthday teddy bear picnic, and Terrie’s thought‑provoking message from a single mam that turns into a lesson in grace — before a maddening NSPCA waiting-room story that explains exactly why shelters are bursting.
