The Curious Tale of Anna Delvey & Love Island’s Body Problem

It’s a live podcast brought to you from the Möet & Chandon Summer House, in London! This week we are discussing the story gone viral, of party-girl-fraud, Anna Delvey. Are we living through the golden age of scamming? Also today, Love Island and it’s golden homogenised beauty types. Do producers of structured reality shows owe us a more realistic body type; or should we expect nothing less from a show which is a platform for Instagram influencers-in-waiting? BooHooMan awaits. LinksDietland, on Amazon Prime https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/video/detail/B07DDHFPWGHow Anna Delvey Tricked New York’s Party People, by Jessica Presser for New York Magazine https://www.thecut.com/2018/05/how-anna-delvey-tricked-new-york.htmlThe Fiends and the Folk Heroes in Grifter Season, by Jia Tolentino for The New Yorkerhttps://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/the-fiends-and-the-folk-heroes-of-grifter-season/ampScammers: They’re Just Like Us, by Tom Gara for Buzzfeedhttps://www.buzzfeed.com/amphtml/tomgara/anna-delvey-scammers-theyre-just-like-usBonjour Tristesse, by Francoise Sagan https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bonjour-tristesse-Francoise-Sagan/dp/2266195581/ref=nodl_Moi Non Plus, on BBC iPlayer https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0b42wwt moi non plus on BBC iplayer Sex And The City’s Lesser Known Icons, by Caroline O’Donoghue for The Poolhttps://www.the-pool.com/arts-culture/tv/2018/23/Caroline-O-Donoghue-on-lesser-known-icons-of-Sex-and-the-City A History of Sex And The City’s “Splat” Episode, via Vulture http://www.vulture.com/2013/12/sex-and-the-city-oral-history-splat-episode.htmlwww.peoples-vote.uk/marchYou can e-mail us [email protected] or tweet us @thehighlowshow.  Hosted on Acast.
