Freeze! The Polyester Podcast had a whole episode planned for our lovely listeners until Sabrina Carpenter delivered us feminist discourse on a silver platter, or rather, on a silver dog leash. On Wednesday, the singer announced her forthcoming summer album titled 'Man's Best Friend' along with artwork picturing Sabrina on all fours having her hair pulled by an anonymous suited figure.Is the cover art a clever continuation of Carpenter's satirisation of female sexuality or are we being conned into embracing misogynistic portrayals of women again in the mainstream? This week, hosts Ione and Gina get into the nitty gritty of the discourse; from pop star sensuality, to ‘puriteens' and the continuing poison of choice feminism on our ability to think critically.Support our work and become a Polyester Podcast member

The Gen X actor on making peace with her absent father, the ghosts of her Hollywood past and nursing Anthony Keidis through his drug addiction while she was still a teenager — a relationship she shudders at today.The 1990s It girl was named for the Scottish island where she was conceived, before her enigmatic folk singer father, Donovan abandoned the family before she was born.A string of stepfathers couldn't remedy Ione's fundamental abandonment and she grew up surrounded by creative types who flowed freely through her mother's house in Los Angeles.Following her beloved older brother into the world of acting and modelling, Ione had an early start in Hollywood and it led her to a full, messy life in which she starred alongside the likes of River Phoenix, Keanu Reeves and John Cusack.When she was only a teenager, she began a relationship with Anthony Keidis, the lead singer of The Red Hot Chili Peppers, who was addicted to heroin. This dysfunctional relationship led to Ione's marriage to the first great love of her life, Adam Horovitz of The Beastie Boys, and a period of time she describes as her 90s daydream.This happy period devolved as Ione joyfully and remorsefully explored her bisexuality and the infidelity eventually ended the marriage.Today Ione is happily married to Australian musician, Ben Lee and has two daughters.Further informationSay Everything is published by HarperCollins.Find out more about Ione Skye and Ben Lee's creative project, Weirder Together.Conversations Executive Producer is Nicola Harrison.Find out more about the Conversations Live National Tour on the ABC website.This episode of Conversations deals with absent fathers, epic life stories, personal stories, cheating, divorce, relationship breakdowns, inappropriate relationships, age gap relationships, intimacy, therapy, Hollywood, Ad-Rock, partying, substance abuse, modelling, child actors and acting.

Last week Kylie Jenner cemented her new identity as a ‘girl's girl' revealing the specificities of her boob job while momager Kris chimed in with details of not just one face lift, but two of them. Are the KarJenners finally letting their guard down about how they crafted themselves in line with the modern beauty standards they've helped craft, or is it all a marketing ploy to win relatability brownie points for the family?In this episode of The Polyester Podcast, hosts Ione and Gina are ripping apart the rampant normalisation of plastic surgery on social media - considering the actual statistics surrounding cosmetic procedures as well as the status of people turning their treatments into consumable content. Is self improvement culture to blame for our warped understanding of bodily autonomy? Has choice feminism poisoned all of our brains?

The writing has been on the wall for a while - Thin is in, pop songs are referencing eating disorders and flexing our ribcages in selfies and fashion content is back full force. In this week's episode, hosts Ione and Gina get stuck into the spectre that has been haunting social media platforms for the past six months and more - the pervasive return of pro ana content, now newly dubbed #Skinnytok.From influencers like Liv Schmidt launching secret members clubs with tips on cutting calorie counts to crunchy teens falling hook, line and sinker for Robert F. Kennedy Jr's Make America Healthy Campaign to hyper focus on their food intake, the internet is riddled in body negative language that stands to harm us all.

Currently trending on TikTok, FKA Twigs is going viral for an interview in which she asks the host and the crowd - "Where are the thinkers?"While internet users raise eyebrows at her question, one that ignores the socioeconomic conditions that affect our ability to create, this week our hosts Ione and Gina use the soundbite to discuss the wider problem at hand - when did pop culture turn into such a flopfest? We deep dive into the continuing escalation of how we consume media - from smashing that 1.5x speed button to the sheer amount of content available - and what effect it has on the creation of meaningful culture.

Erin & Elizabeth talk with Gen-X icon Ione Skye (Say Anything, River's Edge, Zodiac), the actress and author of the NYT-bestselling memoir SAY EVERYTHING. Ione's father is the 60s folk wizard and Sunshine Superman, Donovan. But while Donovan did claim Ione's brother Dono as his own, he referred to Ione since birth only as "the girl," only meeting her for the first time when she was by that point a famous teenager. Ione tells us about how his abandonment affected her early romantic relationships with musicians (Anthony Kiedis, Adam Horovitz), what her husband Ben Lee has taught her about consistency, love and fatherhood, and how the road from rejection to reconciliation is paved with self-protection.  This is a public episode.

In the 80s & 90s - they didn’t come any cooler than Ione Skye. You remember her from Say Anything, the iconic 80s teen movie, or from River’s Edge or Gas Food Lodging or The Rachel Papers…But while Ione was busy making some of the most era-defining films, she was also living the most aspirational 90’s life imaginable - Teenage friends with River Phoenix, teenage girlfriend to The Red Hot Chilli Peppers Anthony Keidis. Young wife of Beastie Boy Adam 'Ad Rock' Horowitz. Welcomed into Madonna’s circle, until she started dating all her female exes. Now, she’s been married to Australian musician Ben Lee for well over a decade, and lives in Sydney. But Ione isn’t defined by the men she’s married or the women she’s loved - she’s the main character of her own wild, beautiful, fearless story - and she’s written it all down in her book, Say Everything - which is a glorious, pent-up outpouring of story and gossip and validation of girlhood and womanhood and romance and sexuality and what was like to come of age in - literally - a different time.

The girlies are going feral across the internet as they reveal during ovulation they get uncontrollably horny. But is it true? Do our hormones control our libidos and cognition or do we have more free will than that? TikTok wellness huns are using pseudoscience to back up their claims, while Twitter feminists take to their feeds to fight back against the dehumanising nature of having our personalities attributed to hormone cycles. In this week's episode, hosts Ione and Gina pick apart the inherent bio-essentialism of ovulation discourse, the alt right's push for focusing on fertility and how these conversations feel like a step back for women.

El Consejo de Ministros ha aprobado el proyecto de Ley para la reducción de la jornada laboral, apuesta personal de Yolanda Díaz a la que le queda un recorrido parlamentario complicado. Junts ha presentado una enmienda a la totalidad, pero dejan abierta la puerta al diálogo. Analizamos la situación política en '24 Horas de RNE' con Ione Belarra, secretaria general de Podemos: "Este Gobierno nos tiene acostumbradas a hacer muchísimos anuncios grandilocuentes que buscan el titular, pero que después no se traducen en nada [...] A la ley de reducción de jornada laboral le queda una tramitación larga". Belarra ha dejado de manifiesto que no se fía del Gobierno de España y cree que "ha entrado en una deriva que apuesta por el régimen de guerra". Insiste en que "le está poniendo una alfombra roja a la derecha porque Sánchez compra las políticas militaristas de la UE".Respecto a la comparecencia de mañana miércoles del Presidente, la secretaria general de Podemos ha criticado que aún no se conozcan las razones del apagón: "Yo creo que es gravísimo que, en un país que se denomina a sí mismo democrático, el presidente del Gobierno y el Gobierno de España no sepan nueve días después qué pasó". Desde Podemos creen que el apagón tiene que dejar dos lecciones: "Se tiene que crear una empresa pública de energía que controle ese sector estratégico y el Gobierno tiene que prohibir que se repartan beneficios en las empresas energéticas hasta que no aseguren que la red eléctrica en España es segura". Para la formación de Ione Belarra "las energías renovables no son el problema porque son la solución a la emergencia climática que vivimos".Escuchar audio

Ione Skye was the ultimate cool girl of the 80s and 90’s. A rising Hollywood star with undeniable talent and a rebellious spirit. She made her debut in River’s Edge alongside Keanu Reeves before cementing her status as a Gen X icon in Say Anything with John Cusack. But behind the scenes, her life wasn’t the Hollywood fairy tale many imagined. From her high-profile romances to navigating fame, Ione’s journey was anything but conventional. In this episode, Ione shares her unconventional upbringing, the pressures of early fame, and the emotional weight of family dynamics. She opens up about exploring her sexuality, partying with Madonna, and navigating addiction, age-gap relationships, marriage, and infidelity. Plus, she reveals how her husband, Ben Lee, found the confidence to pursue her.

Pedro Sánchez comparece este miércoles en el Congreso de los Diputados para informar sobre el aumento del gasto en defensa demandado por la Unión Europea. La secretaria general de Podemos, Ione Belarra, sostiene que el aumento del gasto militar supondrá recortes y que la gente va a vivir peor, por lo que considera que el presidente del Gobierno "se está equivocando" y va a pasar a la historia como "un señor de la guerra". Belarra considera que los líderes mundiales quieren este rearme porque beneficia a la industria armamentística y, para ello, "están infundiendo miedo en la ciudadanía con una amenaza que no se justifica". "Dicen que Rusia podría invadir un país de la UE, pero quien está más cerca de hacer eso es Trump, que sí ha amenazado con invadir Groenlandia [...] Von der Leyen está haciendo seguidismo de lo que pide la administración Trump". Sobre los Presupuestos Generales del Estado, la líder de Podemos asegura que "el PSOE no se atreve a llevarlos al Congreso porque su único socio sería el PP". "Este Gobierno no va a aprobar ninguna cuenta general en esta legislatura", vaticina. "Pedro Sánchez no se va a exponer, van a ir de tapadillo. Irán moviendo dinero de distintas partidas durante todo el año 2025 y esa deuda la pagaremos entre todos a través de recortes en los servicios públicos". Belarra adelanta en 'Las Mañanas de RNE' que, por esa vía, "Podemos no va a pasar".Escuchar audio

Ben and Ione sit down with guest Cameron James to discuss all the things including Kanye West allow daughter North West to be on a track with P Diddy

My guest today is a Gen X legend and someone I've been a little bit obsessed with ever since I saw her star in the definitive (late) 80s movie, Say Anything. Ione Skye. There was a time when It seemed like if there was a hot young actor - John Cusack, River Phoenix, Keanu Reeves - she got to snog them on screen. (I know, shallow, much.) Ione has spent her life in the centre of the Venn diagram of film, music and celebrity. The daughter of 60s superstar Donovan, she famously dated Red Hot Chilli Peppers' Anthony Keidis finding herself both babysitter and breadwinner at just 16. She followed that with an ill-fated marriage to Beastie Boy Ad-Rock (Adam Horowitz). But there is so much more to Ione than all those male name drops. She has starred in some of the most significant movies of their generation. She has worked with the likes of Sofia Coppola, Chloe Sevigny, Lena Dunham and Madonna. She's written children's books, directed short films and is an accomplished painter. Not to mention podcaster. (She hosts the podcast Weirder Together with her partner, Ben Lee.) Oh, and I do just have to say that as a child she only lived next door to the iconic writer Eve Babitz! Anyway It all adds up to one fascinating tumultuous story. One she's addressed extremely candidly in her new memoir, Say Everything. See what she did there? Ione joined me from LA to talk about growing up in the 80s and 90s, being a nepo baby before nepo babies were a thing, having it all, losing it all and getting some of it back, what she's learnt from her Gen Z daughters and finally coming into herself in her 50s. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org, including Say Everything by Ione Skye and the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on buymeacoffee.com. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com • The Shift (on life after 40) with Sam Baker is created and hosted by Sam Baker and edited by Juliette Nicholls at Pineapple Production.

Unfiltered and uncensored, actress Ione Skye's memoir, SAY EVERYTHING (Gallery Books; Hardcover; on-sale March 4, 2025) offers a glimpse into a life lived at the intersection of Hollywood allure and personal exploration. Unlike anything Ione has done before, her memoir blends confessions, desire, and introspection in a way that transcends the typical celebrity narrative. A product of her varied and diverse career, SAY EVERYTHING reveals exactly what's on Skye's mind, intertwining compelling anecdotes from her personal and professional life with profound reflections on love, identity, and the pursuit of self-acceptance. Set against a backdrop of rock royalty compounds, supermodel cliques, and classic late-century films like River's Edge, Gas Food Lodging, and Wayne's World, SAY EVERYTHING is a wild ride of Hollywood thrills as well as a lyrical reflection on ambition, intimacy, and a messy, sexy, unconventional life. Born to the magnetic energy of a 1960s It Girl and the legendary musician Donovan, Skye navigated a landscape shaped by her father's absence and rejection. In her quest for connection, she became entwined with some of the brightest stars of her generation-Keanu Reeves, River Phoenix, Matthew Perry, John Cusack, and Robert Downey Jr.-as well as the rebellious spirit of '90s "bad girls." From her teenage relationship with Anthony Kiedis of the Red Hot Chili Peppers to her breakout role in Say Anything to her marriage to Adam Horovitz of the Beastie Boys, Ione Skye was a Gen X icon. SAY EVERYTHING invites readers to experience a raw and poignant evolution, exploring themes of love, loss, and resilience set against the backdrop of the sex, drugs, and rock-and-roll of the early 90's.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Twitter users went wild on both sides of the coin; one half defending the couple's right to surrogacy, referencing queer families and infertility as reasons that this method of childbirth is an inherent right, the other asking why any of us feel entitled to having kids, especially at the cost of using another person's body to make it happen. In this week's episode hosts Ione and Gina dig deep into the process of surrogacy, the morality behind reproduction as well as the reasons why this conversation is coming up in our current political climate.Support our work and become a Polyester Podcast member
