Olga Loitsenko joins Olly to discuss the topic of the week - Lockdown Lessons! What have you taken away from the seclusion caused by COVID-19? A year ago, Olly and Olga were living in Melbourne and preparing for the Comedy Festival when the virus wreaked havoc on the world, causing Olly to flee home to Europe while Olga stuck it out down under. The pair compare their experiences of the pandemic, and reflect on what it has taught them. Olly also discusses the new Tracy Beaker series 'My Mum Tracy Beaker' and it's nostalgia-inducing storyline, as well as his thoughts on gender reveal parties.
