Should you stay in a situationship?
In this Thursday episode of The Romesh Ranganathan Show, Romesh and Shanthi tackle your problems, from forgetting your neighbours’ names to dealing with the annoying aspects of parenthood.
We also discuss Diane Morgan’s new show Ann Droid, and get into a debate on robots and their possibilities from household help to sex robots.
Elsewhere, Romesh recommends Modern Family as a must-watch show and Shanthi gives her opinion on secret situationships, plus we visit a good old family memory of when Romesh and Dinesh set the sofa on fire. It's another classic Ranganathan family episode - don't miss it.
A Ranga Bee Production in partnership with Platform Media.
