Acerca de Women of Contradictions

Women of Contradictions is a weekly podcast discussing the inherent contradictions within a bevy of topics from cancel culture to body image, feminism to beauty trends. With curiosity as our north star, we will hold the contradictions in ourselves and in culture - which we wish to be celebrated, not criticized. Women of Contradictions is a combination of educational and intellectual, frivolous and irreverent, but above all entertaining and thought provoking. We hope listeners walk away with the same feeling one has after having two martinis with their best friend.

The Contradictions of our 20s

This week we take a look back at life in our twenties. The highs, the lows and what we wish we knew at that age. Wear more sunscreen! Don't worry too much, but maybe worry a little.

episode The Original Fashion Influencers artwork

The Original Fashion Influencers

Yes, it's us, talking about fashion again. This week Britt tries to restrain herself from giving a full history of fashion, but dives into the world and influence of "Haute Couture". We continue our discussion of celebrities, and their relationships to fashion houses, going back to early film stars. We also ponder if these luxury houses are starting to lose their artistic and prestigious appeal when so much of what is now created is for mass consumption and appeal. Britt's Three Things  1) The French are trying to stop fast fashion.

Film Criticism with Lainey Gossip’s Sarah Marrs

This week we had the pleasure of speaking to Lainey Gossip’s Sarah Marrs [https://www.laineygossip.com/Movie-Reviews-and-Previews/Category/1115] about film criticism and Hollywood. We dive into what film criticism is, why it’s important and how it can be improved upon.

episode Good Grief artwork

Good Grief

Like the title implies we are talking alllll about grief today. And particularly now necessary and good it is to properly grieve. Veronica feels right at home, Britt would rather grieve (and probably have this conversation) in private. We chat about how our society shuns grief and Veronica reflects on her own grief these last 18 months. Britt's Three Things:  1) Very happy Emma Thompson married a good one. Greg Wise on grief in The Guardian [https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2024/mar/24/actor-greg-wise-on-the-death-of-his-sister-and-how-grief-shapes-you-as-a-person]. 2) We discussed the latest developments with the Princess of Wales and this article [https://www.vogue.co.uk/article/kate-middleton-misogyny] encapsulates my feelings perfectly. And this [https://www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v35/n04/hilary-mantel/royal-bodies] is the Hillary Mantel essay that is mentioned. 3) Is this actually the end of TikTok? The Atlantic [https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2024/03/tiktok-bytedance-bill-national-security-risks/677860/] and the Financial Times [https://www.ft.com/content/3603b4d2-ce38-4d2c-a21b-baae6ea1921e] weigh in. Veronica's Three Things: 1) Esther Perel and Brené Brown on the New AI - Artificial Intimacy [https://brenebrown.com/podcast/new-ai-artificial-intimacy/]. 2) The most phenomenal obituary on Martin Greenfield. [https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/20/fashion/martin-greenfield-dead.html]  3) New York's trash problem  [https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/03/02/upshot/nyc-trash-rules.html]and what they're trying to do about it.
