Marian and Tara tackling the problems - large or small - of their listeners. Our inbox is always open and we read all submissions. Contact: marianandtara@bbc.co.uk

This week's first 'ask' doesn't get more serious - a listener wants to know if she should tell her family about having been groomed for sexual abuse as a teenager. Marian and Tara draw on their wisdom to do their best to offer counsel.

They also tackle the topic of breastfeeding in public and help a listener deal with a husband who unrepentantly returns from a park run bringing half the park with him on the soles of his shoes. Talk about a wide-ranging programme...

Marian Keyes is a multi award-winning writer, with a total of over 30 million of her books sold to date in 33 languages. Her close friend Tara Flynn is an actress, comedian and writer. Together, these two friends have been through a lot, and now want to use their considerable life experience to help solve the biggest - and smallest - of the things that keep us awake at night.

We have been inundated with emails since the last series - thank you, everyone - but everything gets read and we're always on the lookout for new questions, queries and conundrums to include on the show.
