“I really enjoyed these podcasts in the first series or so. Now it’s just repetition of slightly different versions of the same giggly, largely superficial chats between Anna and Lily. Poorly researched, no insight or even vaguely incisive analysis, and no attempt to use their significant combined reach and platforms to address important topics relevant to their audience (of which there are many - eg gender equality, me too, women’s safety, anti racism, white privilege). Such a shame, as Anna and Lily seem like thoughtful, caring, strong women. It would be great to see them put the work in, do some thinking/research and use their reach to extend the conversation beyond make up, clothes, what they’re reading/watching etc. Occasionally they touch on their ‘industry’ and how it works but that seems only ever to be the more surface stuff - not some of the more interesting, challenging issues and how bloggers or people with big SM followings can harness their presence for good not just selling.”
