Girl Dinner explained // Bush To Bowl healing experience // Egg freezing: fad or future?
Description
(aired 22/07/2023) - This week on Backchat, we're kicking things off with an explanation of the latest phenomenon borne from social media - Girl Dinner. You may have seen it bumping around your socials feed, but what does this tell us about gender roles in 2023? Our host Tanita Razaghi is leading this explanation with help from producer Libby. Next, we're exploring Bush to Bowl - a social enterprise aimed at creating a healing space & platform through First Nations knowledge, by connecting to country and their traditional foodways - providing experiences near Terry Hills. One of the founders of Bush to Bowl, Clarence Bruinsma, is on the line to unpack his work. Finally, egg freezing has entered the mainstream - taking centre stage on social media as females take to the apps to share their experience. But is this really productive or just adding to pressure women already feel about their bodies and life more broadly? Backchat producer Libby Hopper got chatting with fertility specialist Dr Giselle Crawford and finfluencer, Jessica Leung from the leung way to crack into it.
This episode of Backchat was produced by Tanita Razaghi, Nic Huntington, Libby Hopper Jostina Basta, and Eamonn Snow.
