SIM Ep 872 Pod 263: Painting, doomscrolling and whale riding

If you've not heard of 17th Century artist Artemesia Gentileschi, you're not alone. The good news is that Mickey's been on Zoom with author Elizabeth Fremantle to find out about Gentileschi's incredible life, what her beautiful but brutal paintings reveal about her story, and Elizabeth's new book Disobedient. Jen's chatting to journalist and author Paula Cocozza about her new book Speak To Me, and a lack of connection in an overly-connected world. In Jenny Off The Blocks, we'll be looking ahead to the Women’s World Cup, which kicks off on Thursday. Hooray. In Rated or Dated, will there be blubb(er)ing as Hannah picks one of New Zealand's most famous films, Whale Rider? And in BT there's sexism, more sexism, ageism and a bit more sexism for good measure. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast. Hosted on Acast.
