Today&aposs guest is the delightful Bibi Lynch, a frequently requested guest from our listeners. I now know why. Bibi is pure truth.

Bibi is a journalist, writer and broadcaster. More accurately, she&aposs a controversial journalist, writer and broadcaster. She presents a weekly show for BBC Radio Sussex and BBC Radio Surrey (she also co-hosted Sussex and Surrey’s ‘adult’ show After the Watershed and fronted their Bibi Lynch’s WHIPs series) and co-presents Good Sex Bad Sex — a podcast for metro.co.uk.

For ever 25 years, she&aposs written for many titles and sites, including the Guardian, Stella, The Telegraph and Metro.  She’s a regular on TV, presented the What Men Want series for Living; co-wrote Graham Norton’s ITV late-night quiz Carnal Knowledge; and created Living’s hit series Dead Famous.

She’s also the "stupidly proud" creator of the acronym WHIPs (Women who are Hot, Intelligent and in their Prime – or Primark if times are tough), and was voted one of the HuffPost’s ‘50 Funniest Women on Twitter’.
