Question of the week: Brand loyal or bargain hunter?

from The Rise and Hive · host Liane and Melissa

This week’s Question of the Week is more divisive than you’d think…Are you loyal to a deodorant brand… or are you just following the price?We get into it, from the reality of “natural” deodorants (good for the planet… questionable for anything else), to the absolute unenjoyment of a roll-on (why is it so wet?), and the quiet rage of the pink tax.Melissa also makes it known… she loves the smell of man. Make of that what you will.Elsewhere, the biscuit chat continues as house chocolate enters the conversation, and we uncover a revelation… how are you actually supposed to pronounce Blue Riband?Short, snappy, and full of opinions you didn’t realise you had.
