Podcasts about she wants it

This week we dive into the TV masterpiece, It's a Sin, that has swept the nation and has been recommended to us on multiple occasions (thank you listeners!). It's A Sin arrives in all its glory and we are in love. 
Synchronicity emerged in our reading this week, as Alex was consumed by Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters and Rhiannon sank into She Wants It by Joey Soloway. Both books offered incredible insight into the journeys and pluralities within transitioning. Alex shares another comedy song contribution, which is happening so frequently that it's almost ready to become a feature. Rhiannon drastically shifts the tone of the podcast by discussing cricket - we're as surprised as you are - and won Alex over with the drama of the Australian cricket team's journey to redemption, in the Amazon Prime series The Test. Finally, Alex shares her podcast hot tips, after listening to a fascinating discussion on Good Ancestor about white supremacy and erasure in yoga.

In this episode, Emma, Amy, and Abbe chat about the books they're reading right now. Abbe speaks with Transparent creator and author Jill Soloway to talk about their memoir, She Wants It. Finally, the co-hosts discuss Michelle Obama's best-selling memoir Becoming.

In conversation with Hannah Gadsby The Emmy and Golden Globe-winning creator of the Amazon series Transparent, Jill Soloway is the director of the feature film Afternoon Delight, creator of the series I Love Dick, and was a writer and executive producer for Six Feet Under, How to Make It in America, and United States of Tara. They are also the author of Tiny Ladies in Shiny Pants and founder of the activism groups 5050by2020 and East Side Jews. Pondering the #MeToo movement, gender dynamics, and the nature of inclusion, She Wants It draws on Soloway's own unique truth, including their experience in the entertainment industry and their metamorphosis from a married mother of two to identifying as queer and nonbinary.

Did you know that a synonym for women’s genitalia has its root in the Latin word for “shame”? This is one of many intriguing observations that emerges from Tina Brown’s conversation with Jill Soloway, creator of the groundbreaking series Transparent, that was inspired by Soloway’s own parent, Harry, coming out as transgender. During the Amazon show’s acclaimed run, life and art formed a double helix of awakening in Soloway, who now identifies as genderqueer and nonbinary. That newfound clarity and freedom permeates She Wants It, Soloway’s intimate new memoir about love, identity, family and toppling the patriarchy.Tweet me @tinabrownlm #TBDwithTinaBrown and if you liked this episode, please rate, review and subscribe, it helps us spread the word.

The blue urine trickle has swept our nation, but we have yet to see whether it’s up to the challenge posed by right wing internet-obsessed terrorists. Jeff Sessions has been ignominiously forced to resign, and we’re celebrating while many liberals are bizarrely distressed by this news and have taken to the streets to voice their concern. In the tech world, MAGA chuds have been forced into the darkest reaches of social media: LinkedIn. Cars are making the hard decisions, like whether a large woman deserves to die in an accident more than a criminal or a dog. In pop culture we’re discussing the golden stream of two awful online shows, Pod Save America and Making A Murderer season 2. We’re also discussing death metal and a pair of books that will make you want to die: Jill Solloway’s She Wants It, and Jomny Sun and Lin Manuel Miranda’s G’Morning G’Night. Dan closes us out with a classic yet portentous tale of 2011.

The High Low inbox was full of people asking us to cover the media coverage of Carrie Symonds, the former Tory comms director accused of having an affair with Boris Johnson. We discuss the ‘scarlet woman' trope, historically embodied by Monica Lewinsky, the then intern who was globally shamed for her affair with Bill Clinton (if you haven't watched her 2015 TED talk yet - DO IT.) Let's stop with the ‘tabloidese' whereby women accused of having affairs with famous, married men are party-loving sluts designed to attack the patriarchy. Here's a thought: let's cover women in the same way we do men?Also today, we celebrate the 18 year tenure - yes, 18 years - of Big Brother and Celebrity Big Brother. Whether 'civilian or celebrity' (our new favourite phrase), Big Brother was once a pop-culture phenomenon, at the vanguard of the zeitgeist. Rather than examine where it all went wrong (nothing lasts forever) we dive into the nostalgia and share our favourite bits plus YOUR favourite bits, as garnered from Twitter. Plus, Dolly interviews an ex story producer of MIC, ex head writer for TOWIE and culture journalist, Ed Cripps, to discuss the BB phenomenon in more detail.E-mail us thehighlowshow@gmail.comTweet us @thehighlowshowHadley Freeman on Serena Williams https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/sep/15/give-serena-williams-break-working-mothersSophie Heawood interviews Lily Allen https://www.theguardian.com/music/2018/sep/15/lily-allen-brazen-behaviour-didnt-care-sophie-heawoodThe Pursuit of Love, by Nancy Mitford https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pursuit-Love-Nancy-Mitford/dp/0141044012Episode 59 of Fortunately with Fi and Jane, with Susanna Reid https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p06f8njnKilling Eve, on BBC iPlayer https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/p06jy6bcFran Yeoman on Carrie Symonds for iNews https://inews.co.uk/inews-lifestyle/people/boris-johnson-carrie-symonds-affair-allegations-sexism-media/Monica Lewinsky's TED talk, ‘The price of shame' https://www.ted.com/talks/monica_lewinsky_the_price_of_shame/up-next?language=enNadia Petschek Rawls, Director of Social Media at TED, on Monica Lewinsky's TED talk https://ideas.ted.com/want-to-help-prevent-online-bullying-comment-on-facebook/She Wants It by Jill Soloway: https://www.amazon.co.uk/She-Wants-Desire-Toppling-Patriarchy/dp/1785032844 Tiny Ladies in Shiny Pants:
