Anita Anand and her guests explore princesses - delving into their favourite fictional, or historical, princess. From She Ra to Mesopatamian high priestess Enheduanna we get into what it means to be a princess.
Host Anita Anand joins author Damian Barr and podcaster Meff to hear about how the 80s icon She Ra - sister of He Ra - has become a main character.
We hear about how, in her newest iteration, the Princess of Power isn’t just openly gay but saved the world with a queer kiss.
