Podcast Overview

Women of Contradictions is a weekly podcast discussing the inherent contradictions within a bevy of topics from cancel culture to body image, feminism to beauty trends. With curiosity as our north star, we will hold the contradictions in ourselves and in culture - which we wish to be celebrated, not criticized. Women of Contradictions is a combination of educational and intellectual, frivolous and irreverent, but above all entertaining and thought provoking. We hope listeners walk away with the same feeling one has after having two martinis with their best friend.

The Contradictions of our 20s

This week we take a look back at life in our twenties. The highs, the lows and what we wish we knew at that age. Wear more sunscreen! Don't worry too much, but maybe worry a little.

The Original Fashion Influencers

Yes, it's us, talking about fashion again. This week Britt tries to restrain herself from giving a full history of fashion, but dives into the world and influence of "Haute Couture". We continue our discussion of celebrities, and their relationships to fashion houses, going back to early film stars. We also ponder if these luxury houses are starting to lose their artistic and prestigious appeal when so much of what is now created is for mass consumption and appeal.
