Baby Talk Radio

In this special International Women’s Day episode of Baby Talk Radio, Courtney and Vivienne dive into the viral world of tradwife content—an aestheticized online movement romanticizing traditional homemaking roles. They break down who these women are, why their content resonates, and how social media algorithms fuel the trend. Through an engaging mix of cultural analysis, humor, and media literacy, they explore the intersection of nostalgia, gender roles, capitalism, and internet virality. From sourdough starters to subliminal messaging, this episode unpacks the appeal—and the potential implications—of the tradwife phenomenon.This episode was created as part of KPFA’s International Women’s Day special programming.
