It’s made by Perspehonica, behind Miss Me? With Miquita Olivia and Lily Allen and Dua Lipa: At Your Service. The show says that it will cover topics beyond what you hear Zoe and Jo typically talk about on the radio, with the format covering their 30 years of friendships along with “life, kids, health, grief, gardening, interiors, food and everything in between.” There’s also no scripts.
