Rethinking farming: mental health, loneliness, and breaking boundaries… with Clarkson's Farm's Harriet
48:55||Ep. 175Harriet Cowan is not your stereotypical farmer.British farmers are under pressure and are often misunderstood. Harriet is making it her mission to change our perception of farmers and farming. Not only does this woman run two farms with her boyfriend - she also works five days a week as a nurse - we're pretty sure she's one of the hardest working people in the country.She came in to tell us all about the fascinating, relentless farming industry - what it means to take over a family farm, the pressures she and other farmers are under and the mental health impact of loneliness amongst farmers. We had a lot to learn from Harriet - she’s an incredibly passionate, driven woman - and she taught us so much about this vital industry. Follow @harrietcowan_x on InstagramYou can watch Harriet in action on series 4 of Clarkson’s Farm. The first four episodes are available now on Prime Video and the next four episodes will be released on May 30th and June 6th.

37:02|Guys, a miracle has happened - Al is happy with the weather today!On today’s episode we’re discussing Em’s food poisoning *situation*… which miraculously didn’t actually originate in the Light household. We chat about sports bras - and how much of a barrier boobs can be for women getting into exercise. And we discuss the internet’s reaction to Blue Ivy - why do people feel like they can speak about a 13-year-old child in the way they do online? And if you’re curious about the shared vibrator… we will never reveal our secrets.

Dismantling the media spin on male violence
45:24||Ep. 174Words matter and the way we use them can either uphold or challenge harmful systems.This week we’re joined by Sydney - the co-founder of This Ends Now, a not-for-profit dedicated to preventing male violence against women and girls through reframing conversations. Sydney tells us how language plays a powerful role in shaping our understanding of sexism and male violence and how changing the words we use can help dismantle the patriarchy.We dive into their powerful ‘Red Pen’ campaign, which calls out the victim-blaming, misogynistic language too often used in headlines and police reports and corrects them to advocate for responsible reporting.Our chat with Sydney was fascinating, and really opened up our eyes to how simple changes to the language we use can make a huge difference - and felt particularly important off the back of our conversation with Laura Bates last week. Do go back and listen to that episode if you haven’t already.

38:22|Greetings loved ones! Happy Al’s Got A Fringe Day to all who celebrate!It’s been a big week for us - not only has Em’s had a man look up her drain - but we’ve also been loving seeing your comments on Monday’s episode with Laura Bates. We’ve decided to continue the conversation on this Monday’s episode with a very exciting interview… which seems especially pertinent in light of the Gérard Depardieu being charged for sexually assaulting two women - and Cannes Film Festival announcing their new red carpet nudity ban. Why is the landscape for women becoming more and more difficult - and how can our use of language help us to overcome it?

Cyber brothels, AI girlfriends and misogynistic algorithms: Laura Bates on the new age of sexism
53:25||Ep. 173The Netflix show Adolescence opened up the conversation about male violence and the radicalisation of young boys online into the mainstream. But how much do we really know about what young boys are viewing online and the effect is has on them? This week, we're joined by someone whose work has shaped the conversation around gender, power, and the internet for over a decade - writer, activist, and founder of the Everyday Sexism Project, Laura Bates.We were so thrilled to welcome Laura back on the podcast to talk about her brand new book, The New Age of Sexism - an examination of how misogyny is evolving in the digital age. We spoke to her in light of the rise in incel culture, the mainstreaming of online radicalisation, and the links between toxic masculinity and real-world male violence,This conversation touches on some upsetting themes - specifically violence against women and sexual abuse. But Laura gives us practical advice on a personal and policy level to help us eradicate this new wave of gendered hate. We learned so much from this conversation and we hope you will too.Follow @laura_bates__ on InstagramThe New Age of Sexism: How the AI Revolution is Reinventing Misogyny is out on 15th May 2025.

33:11|This week, we’re discussing all things adulthood: the good, the bad, and the “oh god, no one’s coming to rescue me.” From the never-ending responsibilities to the realisation that the buck officially stops with you, we’re discussing all what it's like to be a responsible adult (spoiler: it’s exhausting)We’re also reminding ourselves - and you - why it’s so important to prioritise yourself. Al’s long-overdue facial is officially on the agenda.Plus, we dive into a listener email with a relationship dilemma and do our best to offer some honest advice (with minimal chaos).
