Everything in Conversation: Lola Young And The Hunt For Nepo Babies

Everything in Conversation: Lola Young And The Hunt For Nepo Babies

Happy hump day EIC heads! As a reward for making it halfway to the weekend here’s a brand spanking episode of Everything In Conversation for you- and it’s a doozy.


This week we’re discussing a new branch of the nepo baby discourse that sprouted after 24-year-old singer and Messy internet sensation Lola Young was “outed” as being the niece of mega-successful children’s author Julia Donaldson (e.g. the creator of The Gruffalo).


This revelation sparked conversations online about whether this connection was enough to open doors, if we even should be labelling Young a nepo baby, and what having a rich or high profile relative can mean when navigating a career in the arts. Armed with a pile of brilliant listener messages we try to find some answers, as well as getting stuck into the complications of the UK class system, code-switching, the sexism inherent in the term nepo baby and what we think we should all actually be talking about instead.


Thanks so much for listening and/or taking part in this In Conversation episode. If you want to be a part of next week’s discussion just follow us on IG @everythingiscontentpod. We’d also love if you could leave us a rating or a review or even share us on socials- it means the world and helps us grow!
