It's Only Blood
from The Hotbed
The Hotbed podcast is back for series two! We hope you've had some good orgasms since we were away. And now we're straight in at the deep end again, talking about periods: period shame, period education, period sex, period poverty and period politics. It's a good one! The Hotbed Collective (that's Cherry Healey, Anniki Sommerville and Lisa Williams) also manage to reference Love Island, cult horror film Carrie, and Cherry's show Inside the Factory. We also interview Anna Dahlqvist about her book It's Only Blood. It's worth a listen. Period. Our episode sponsor is Honour Your Flow. We speak to Anna Dahlqvist, the author of It's Only Blood, which you can buy from Waterstones here...
