Shownotes

What do you say when your 8-year-old walks in on you in 'the act'?

Romesh and his mum Shanthi take on your questions and family dilemmas, even though they remain thoroughly unqualified to do so.

This week, a listener needs help after their son caught them in the middle of the night, and Romesh and Shanthi try to work out the best response. A role play that quickly goes off the rails...

Got a dilemma? Send us a voice note or email, and we might answer it on the show. Nothing is off limits (we really mean it).

A Ranga Bee Production.
