  • Fine Cut with Alyson: Bryan Holdman

    Alyson and Bryan Holdman (Writer/Producer of shows including Pretty Little Liars, Kyle XY and Our Kind of People and author) discuss the new documentary WHAM! and specifically the final few minutes that cover the farewell concert at Wembley in 1986.  Bryan and Alyson discuss the female and queer gaze and how it applies to this film, WHAM!, George Michael, their careers and the fandoms surrounding both. They also talk about how WHAM! is a love letter to male friendship and allyship and how surprisingly emotional both of them were watching this film. Alyson loves any opportunity to talk to her decades old friend (!!!) and this incredibly wide ranging conversation is no exception. They loved it and hope you will too.

    In this episode, Jess speaks with fellow Femme On host Alyson Shelton about Sylvia Plath’s classic, The Bell Jar. We discuss navigating trauma and identity as a young teenage woman, the tumultuous and heartbreaking life of Plath, and how reading this novel today offers poignant commentary on the terrifying reversal of women’s rights unfolding in the United States.

  • Femme on Creatives: Claire Keane

    Alyson and Claire Keane (artist, illustrator of books including her most recent Little Wonder and visual development artist on films including Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, Tangled and Frozen) talk about finding their creative voices.

How in order to keep creativity flowing and sustainable, engaging with one’s voice (or tapping into the flow) is essential. It’s a fascinating conversation that will resonate with fans and artists creatives. What is it like to create and what’s it like when creating is complicated? Come listen and find out!
