Listen now
Description
Another day another seemingly innocuous trend borne from TikTok style videos - this week Ione and Gina are using mob wife glamour to get into the nitty gritty of hyper specific aesthetics.

Join the two leopard print aficionados on deciding whether or not this resurgence of gaudy glamour is a good or bad thing for the girlies.
