 Mildly Informed

Join Richie Firth and Chris Skinner as they dive headfirst into the art of decision-making—whether it’s rating the latest TV shows, dissecting bizarre life choices, or tackling the dilemmas their listeners throw their way. No topic is too big, too small, or too ridiculous. Armed with personal experiences, the news of the week, and an inbox full of questionable queries, Richie and Chris promise to leave you ever-so-slightly wiser… or at least Mildly Informed
