Join us as we discuss our recent visit to the Toronto After Dark Film Festival and offer insights on two nail-biting thrillers - 'Suitable Flesh' and 'It's a Wonderful Knife.' But that's just the tip of the iceberg. We're also putting a spotlight on seasonal depression, and Ama's sharing her journey reading Britney Spears new memoir, The Woman In Me.
We are chuffed to welcome our guest this week, Lisa Whittington Hill, publisher of This Magazine and author of the new book, 'Girls, Interrupted: How Pop Culture Is Failing Women,' into today's chat! Together, we venture into the jarring world of media treatment meted out to celebrities like Britney Spears, Amber Heard, and Paris Hilton. Lisa's expert insights on how pop culture has been failing women is an eye-opening discussion. Brace yourselves as we dive further into controversial documentaries, celebrity scandals, and gender bias in pop culture.
