SIM Ep 950 Pod 296 The '70s, the late '90s and right now

If you find watching sport in public a bit intimidating, Set Piece Social will be for you. This week, Jen chats to Naomi Fitzgibbons and Kate Hetherington about their pioneering new project to get women watching women's sport. Hannah's talking to writer Farine Clark about her new play London Zoo, and what inspired her career changes from medicine through journalism and into the arts. In Rated or Dated, Mickey (*screeches to a stop in a 1974 Gran Torino*) has had us watching 2004's Starksy & Hutch (*doesn't run out of fingers on one hand counting female roles*). And in BT, we've got some good news and some more good news and some more good news. Also some bad news. But let's focus on the positive eh?
