Okay y'all, be honest - do looks really matter?! In this sidenote session, we're discussing whether looks do/should really matter in your relationship.

In this sidenote session, we discuss the obligation to perform and whether we, as spectators, should have so much of a say in a performer's decision.

Should we applaud them for prioritizing their mental health or is there more of an importance on sticking to your commitments? Have a listen and let us know your thoughts!
