The Bush Telegraph: The (G)rapes of wrath

About this episode

Mick and Jen discuss positive stories related to rape amidst troubling statistics on domestic violence and suicide.

If the thought of a rapist having his cock mangled by very sharp plastic teeth is your thing, have we got news for you. We have! In fact, Mick and Jen have got not one, but two positive stories about rape for you this week. Albeit served with a shit sorbet of some truly horrible stats around domestic violence and suicide. In SOTW, Mick (49-year-old mother of none) is choosing not to judge Cameron Diaz and inviting you to join her, while in JOTB, Jen’s chatting darts, swooning at Allyson Felix and sharing the most Trumpesque demand not to be made by Trump. Rape Crisis has a 24-hour support line: 0808 500 2222 or online https://247sexualabusesupport.org.uk/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
