The First Ladies of Television

<p>This episode is all about the female powerhouses at the centre of contemporary prestige television and all the different types of feminist storytelling across a whole lot of streaming services. We start off by covering <em>Roar</em> (an anthology series on Apple TV) and discuss it's visually impressive and folkloric take on issues related to womanhood, and close off with a discussion about <em>The First Lady</em> (political drama streaming on Showtime), <em>Gaslit</em> (political thriller streaming on Starz), and <em>Russian Doll</em> (on Netflix),. Other notable mentions we give a shout out to are <em>Candy</em>(on Hulu) and Shining Girls (on Apple TV). As always, we hope you enjoy!<br> <br> <strong>Music: Humblux - S.H.E.
