  • Didn’t rate the Sylvia Plath episode

    I found the hosts comments on modern approaches to electro convulsive therapy, Freud and other topics really quite uninformed and lacking of any wisdom. I was surprised as there is so much literature available about these topics and their throw away comments just were odd and ultimately stigmatising.

  • Icons discussing icons

    A celebration of female and non-binary artists, with such an insightful and wonderful outlook by the amazing artists Stauney & Sadie.

    They both are respectful to all perspectives and have taken their time to research, including the queer experience. The podcast is a great way to fangirl over and learn about female and non-binary creatives.

  • Came for the merch, stayed for the facts

    Stauney and Sadie intellectualize every day situations and inequalities and exhibit the facts behind female issues SO WELL.

    I don’t know how they convey feminine rage sans palpable rage so well, but I’m hooked.
