In this episode, Izzy and Grace drill-down on Lena Dunham: Is she the self-absorbed narcissist the media insists on painting her as? Or is she a victim of a sexist culture that holds women to a higher account than men? Plus, a deep dive on the concept of ‘emotional labour’ in the wake of Gemma Hartley’s new book ‘Fed Up’. Plus Plus, Izzy has found Gossip Girl 2.0 (kinda) and how Grace lost her mind on Black Friday.
