Makes me angry, but in a good way!
Having listened to the audiobook, and following Helen (not in a stalker way honest) through the Empire Podcast & Magazine for years, when she launched this solo podcast I was so excited! And then I heard it...it elicits such deep recognition, annoyance and real anger, that I genuinely have to not do my usual of devour immediately when it drops. This is the highest compliment I personally can give to this. It's very well constructed, from the weaving of the guests pov's on a given talking point, to the musical interludes but it's Helen's interrogation of the topics with the guests that get the points across while keeping the tone hopeful ultimately. There is pain, disappointment, and also hopefulness, throughout interviews, speaking well of the questions Helen asks to get to those realities. I genuinely hope Helen and the Stripped Media team find a way to continue these conversations, they are important and needed. TL;DR It's great, and sometimes maddening, you should definitely listen!

Helen is one of the most thoughtful and intelligent film critics around and she brings her usual charm and wit to this podcast. Her guests are equally delightful and the premise of the show is wonderful for this time of year. Enjoy!
