“This lifestyle and this group is beyond toxic and I would not recommend it to anyone…Toms struggles to have a midlife crisis with his embarrassing gang and Raquel has faked her way to the top trying to do something with his life arranged”. stepping on anyone to get there starting with James.

‘Sell the lame type s**t. Let’s all remember that Raquel was a fan of the show before all this. Does anyone pay attention?
