About

In It's Terrible the Things I Have to Do to Be Me, Philippa Snow gives us a radical study of female icons through pairs of famous women.

In It's Terrible the Things I Have to Do to Be Me, Philippa Snow gives us a radical study of female icons through pairs of famous women.

It’s full of the glamour and debauchery of Hollywood, just like Ione Gamble’s The Polyester Book of (Bad) Taste: a deep dive into the joy and power of personal pleasures, quirks, obsessions, and bad taste.

Join the duo’s discussion on pop culture, exposure, punishment, and the gruelling demands of femininity and fame.

Chaired by Tomiwa Folorunso.
