The First Ladies of Television

This episode is all about the female powerhouses at the centre of contemporary prestige television and all the different types of feminist storytelling across a whole lot of streaming services. We start off by covering Roar (an anthology series on Apple TV) and discuss it's visually impressive and folkloric take on issues related to womanhood, and close off with a discussion about The First Lady (political drama streaming on Showtime), Gaslit (political thriller streaming on Starz), and Russian Doll (on Netflix),. Other notable mentions we give a shout out to are Candy(on Hulu) and Shining Girls (on Apple TV). As always, we hope you enjoy! Music: Humblux - S.H.E.
