Hannah Jewell, author of 'We Need Snowflakes: In Defence of the Sensitive, the Angry and the Offended' joined Sean on the show today...

As the US deploys troops to Eastern Europe to support Ukraine, panellists John Everard and Stefanie Bolzen discuss what's next. Plus: propaganda, the Winter Olympics and Hannah Jewell on her new book ‘We Need Snowflakes'.

Six the Musical is currently on stage at the Vaudeville Theatre in London. The show follows Henry VIII's six wives, as they take the microphone for the first time in a ‘Britain's Got Talent' style sing-off. Originally written by two Cambridge University students and showcased at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2017, it has since taken London's West End by storm and has just opened on Broadway. Joining Emma are Lucy Moss, co-director and co-writer of the show, and Tsemaye Bob-Egbe, who plays Henry VIII's fifth wife Katherine Howard in a brand new London cast. Boris Johnson is under renewed pressure after Downing Street admitted staff gathered inside No 10 during the first Covid lockdown to mark his birthday in June 2020. A spokesperson said staff had "gathered briefly" to "wish the Prime Minister a happy birthday", adding that he had been there "for less than 10 minutes". There have been recent suggestions that No 10 would benefit from having more women in high profile roles to sort out what has been reported to be a 'lad's lair'. Baroness Kate Fall was Deputy Chief of Staff for David Cameron while he was Prime Minister, and joins Emma. Are the youth of today oversensitive, mollycoddled and intellectually weak? Is cancel culture spiralling out of control? According to journalist and writer Hannah Jewell, author of new book We Need Snowflakes: In defence of the sensitive the angry and the offended, the term ‘snowflakes' has been used to demonise young people who care passionately about fighting racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia and economic inequality. As Russian troops mass on the border with Ukraine, and NATO warns of a risk of fresh conflict in Europe, Emma speaks to BBC Ukrainian Service journalist Irena Taranyuk about the pressures and decisions facing women in her country right now. The MP Sir Edward Leigh, who himself suffers from rosacea, has tabled a debate on the link between skin problems and poor mental health to be held at Westminster Hall later today. He joins Emma Barnett to discuss his concerns alongside the consultant dermatologist Dr Penelope Pratsou who also speaks on behalf of the British Skin Foundation.

In praise of offence-taking: how snowflakedom can change the world for the better. Is today's youth over sensitive, mollycoddled and intellectually pathetic? Does the scourge of political correctness threaten the very fabric of our nations? Yes, and yes! comes the cry of the incensed politician, columnist, comedian, disgruntled father, and baby boomer. Dubbed the 'snowflake generation', these hypersensitive cowards are up in arms about silly things like bathrooms smeared with faeces in the shape of Swastikas, climate change, and statues of colonisers being kept in their natural habitats of universities and town squares. They make obstinate requests like wondering if a vegan option might be available, or if you could (please) use their correct pronouns. In response to this outrage, writer and Washington Post pop culture host Hannah Jewell has decided to write a book to explain why being a snowflake might not be a bad thing. It might even make the world a better place. Subversive, provocative and very funny, Hannah explains how, shockingly, despising the generation that comes after your own isn't actually a new thing, and why it's good for students (and indeed the rest of us) to kick off. She shows how you can instill resilience in children without having to live through a war or be made to eat octopus; and provides a handy guide to how you - yes, you! - can also become a snowflake and help to make the world a kinder, more empathetic place.

100 de femei afurisite, volum din imprintul de nonficțiune Orion, este o istorie alternativă a unor vieți care-au scăpat, cumva, de destinul unor note de subsol ale așa-zisei istorii mari. 100 de femei în stare să înfrunte lumea întreagă pentru pasiunile lor, chiar și regimuri opresive sau - acolo unde a fost cazul - dictatori în toată regula. Autoarea cărții, Hannah Jewell, spune în episodul #08 din podcastul Books are Magic că nu a încercat cu tot dinadinsul să rescrie istoria, ci mai degrabă să o completeze. Femeile și bărbații deopotrivă au făcut istorie, observă ea pe parcursul dialogului cu jurnalistul Filip Standavid. Întâmplarea face ca vocile femeilor să se fi auzit foarte puțin. Saau, în unele cazuri, deloc.

Olivia Hartley is a sub-editor and podcast interviewer at The Critic magazine. After she interviewed me last week for her podcast she told me that her thinking had completely changed while working there. Obviously, that meant I had to interview her too, to offer hope to humanity - nothing less! -  so we can answer the question, how do we stop thinking like the group and thinking independently? We chatted about some of her epiphanies and how she moved on from being a self-appointed 'Covid Marshall'. . Her freethinking recommendation is '100 Nasty Women of History' by Hannah Jewell

Hannah Jewell, author of She Caused a Riot, joins us to share how writing about women in history has shaped how she views life today, how she's cultivated her sense of humor while tackling serious topics, and the huge importance of creating what it is you want with abandon.

While I do love books that deal with important and often heavy issues, several people in my family are battling major health issues that are pretty heavy. So I’m looking for a book to escape from all that when I need a little pick me up. I recently read The Invisible Library and loved it! Where’d you go Bernadette, Ready Player One, The Night Circus, and Harry Potter are some of my favorites. I want something I can spend some time with so please no short stories or graphic novels. I can’t wait to hear what you recommend! --Jessica   2. For a trip in April! Hi, Get Booked! The orchestra I perform with is going on tour to Peru, Argentina and Uruguay next month and I’d love to read a novel or two set in the countries where we’ll be. I’m also writing my dissertation, so lighter, fun reads would be appreciated. Nothing supernatural please. Thank you! --Sarah   3. Hi, I’m looking for a good trilogy to read. I’m participating in a Litsy Reading Challenge and one of the categories is read a trilogy. It can be YA or not, preferably not. I really liked The Grisha trilogy. I tried the first in Blood of Eden series (The Immortal Rules) and didn’t care for it. I’ve read all the popular YA ones like hunger games, divergent, etc. My favorite genres are fantasy, mystery and Historical fiction. Thanks in advance! --Mikala   4. I'm participating in the read harder challenge and I'm a bit anxious just thinking about the true crime book. Could you recommend a nonviolent true crime book for anxious wimps like me? Maybe a heist or something? --Emily   5. Hi Ladies! My best friend's birthday in in three weeks and I'm stumped. I've exhausted my knowledge of big-gothic-isolated-house-psychological thrillers (her FAVORITE in all caps). I've given her Rebecca, The Haunting of Hill House, The Silent Companions, The Woman in Black, The Essex Serpent and most of Wilkie Collins. Creepy and / or serious is great, but odd or quirky is okay - her favorite movie is Clue, so an Edward Gorey vibe is great too. Thanks so much! --Madeleine   6. TIME SENSITIVE for EARLY APRIL. I’ll be going to the French Quarter in New Orleans for an academic conference this April (Fun fact: the academic conference coincides with both WWE’s Wrestlemania and the city’s French Quarter festival, so I can only imagine who my neighbors at the hostel will be!!). Could you recommend any books or authors to check out if I wanna get to know the city ahead of time? Personally, I don’t know where to start because Nola ticks so many of my interests: jazz, mysticism/magic (vampires, voodoo, graveyards tours etc.), black culture & history, French Creole & Cajun culture, great food…all wrapped up in a small city that remains to be beautiful post-Katrina. Thank you for answering everyone’s questions every episode!! --Jess   7. URGENT!!!! Please help! My brother in law is going on a month long rafting trip down the Grand Canyon and I want to get him a book to bring. He's a fan of Cormac McCarthy, Edward Abbey, western/mountain man stories, the classics. I think he would also enjoy interesting non-fiction. I would love to get him the perfect book to accompany in this adventure. Thank you!! --Joana Lau   Books Discussed Blood of a Thousand Stars by Rhoda Belleza The Beauty by Aliya Whitely The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness Death Going Down by Maria Angelica Bosco translated by Lucy Greaves The Hare by Cesar Aira Shades of Magic by VE Schwab The Broken Earth trilogy by NK Jemisin (trigger warning: harm to children) The Orchid Thief by Susan Orlean Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt White is for Witching by Helen Oyeyemi Horrorstor by Grady Hendrix Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice Post: books set in New Orleans Voodoo Dreams by Jewell Parker Rhodes Red: Passion and Patience in the Desert by Terry Tempest Williams Half An Inch of Water by Percival Everett

Hour 9 – Bright Light Bright Light, Isatta Sheriff, Annabelle Knight, Hannah Jewell, Amanda Star, Eartha Pond

Matt Granite has a beauty deal, Hannah Jewell talks about her book "She Caused a Riot: 100 Unknown Women Who Built Cities, Sparked Revolutions, and Massively Crushed It" and Adam Rodriguez shares his experience directing the latest "Criminal Minds" episode.

The garbagemen Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@milo_edwards), and Hussein (@HKesvani) are joined by leftist journalist and author Hannah Jewell (@HCJewell), whose new book 100 Nasty Women of History came out last week! We talk with her about labour organising and feminism in the digital age AND in history (both!), and also a bunch of other dumb internet nonsense. DUMB INTERNET NONSENSE includes, but is not limited to, the Bin Laden files, the Antifa attack that wasn't (or at the time of recording, was not to be), liberal morons sanctimoniously reinventing philosophy, and the antinatalism of the British royal family, and whatever else I can't remember. Like and subscribe fools! (PS: we've had to cancel the show next week due to scheduling issues - but stay tuned in January!) Link to Hannah's book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/100-Nasty-Women-History-completely/dp/1473671256/ref=sr_1_1/259-8804536-2881939?ie=UTF8&qid=1509983333&sr=8-1&keywords=100+nasty+women+of+history

Hannah Jewell is a pop culture host at The Washington Post, and a former senior writer at BuzzFeed, where she became known for her humour writing - she presented BuzzFeed's live 2016 election night show, which was watched by nearly 7 million people.She has also now written a book called 100 Nasty Women of History. All about brilliant, badass and completely fearless women everyone should know.The book is about women in history who were deemed too nasty for their times. When you learn about (the very few) women in history, it's hard not to wonder: why do they seem so prim and proper? The truth is, (mostly male) historians keep glossing over the real details, or leaving out the women who threatened their idea of what a woman should be like. They’re intelligent, ahead of their time, some overthrew empires, and some just wanted to have a good time – obviously none of which were acceptable at the time.It’s sort of history the way you’d tell it to your friends at the pub – full of the salacious, the mind boggling and downright brutal happenings, as well as plenty of modern day judgement.
