#49 - Hollie McNish / How to liberate yourself from shame

Toshi was lucky enough to chat with award-winning poet, writer and performer, Hollie McNish, for this episode. We found Hollie after watching a clip of her performing one of her poems, called ‘When I Am Dead, Will You Finally Shut the Fuck Up’ (which you’ll get to hear her read in the podcast). We sat down with Hollie to talk more about her work – the inspiration behind her poems, and how people respond to them, how we can challenge shame through language, sex education, masturbation, and her new book Lobster: and other things I’m learning to love, which comes out on the 14th of March 2024.
