Salt Path Swindlers, Queer Ultimatums & Brad Pitt's PR Machine
Happy Friday EIC-heads, we're back with another dose of content.On Saturday The Observer published an investigation by writer Chloe Hadjimatheou into the bestselling book The Salt Path and the couple behind it. The film adaptation was also just released about 6 weeks ago and stars Gillian Anderson and Oscar Isaac as the couple. The book has been billed by the Guardian as 'A beautiful, thoughtful, lyrical story of homelessness, human strength and endurance' 'Luminescent. A literary phenomenon' by Mail on Sunday and “a beautiful story and a reminder that humans can endure adversity' Stylist. But as Chloe Hadjimatheou discovers, it may also be a little too good to be true...Next up, Ruchira's been utterly obsessed with Netflix’s The Ultimatum: Queer Love series 2 or what everyone actually calls it i.e. Queer Ultimatum. The series brings six couples together. Each of these couples have one person who desperately wants to get married and one who doesn’t. The latter have been issued an ultimatum by their partner I.e go on this show with me and by the end if you don’t change your mind we break up. We discuss!And lastly, we need to talk about Brad Pitt. Allegations against him have been in the public eye for years now, so why is he still, Hollywood's golden boy?We hope you enjoy, and always, thank you so much for listening.

Everything in Conversation: Is It Feminist To Disclose Cosmetic Surgery?
Happy Wednesday and even happier EIConversation day to you and everyone you know. This week we're getting into Kylie Jenner's boob job recipe and what this new spate of plastic surgery disclosures from celebs means for the rest of us. Should we be grateful they're telling us or suspicious that it's not quite the whole story? Could it help keep comparison at bay or simply make it easier for people to spend £££ and risk their health to emulate their favourite famous person? We attempt to get to the bottom of all of this and more with the help from all of you lovely listeners. We hope you enjoy, and as always please do follow + review the show on your podcast player app as it helps others to find the podcast :)O,R,B x Hosted on Acast.
