Asian Bitches Down Under

Middle-age women's trope on TV and films


Listen Later

In this week's massive episode, Jess shares her current reading Rodham which leads to an unexpected conversation about how being a man is better, and the lack of attraction by the intellect of women is normalised in our society. Helen shares the strange experience of reading Candy House that really confuses the mind.

On another cultural consumption, Jess confides her hate of legal dramas with Partner Track (Netflix), we also question the relevance (and reasons?!) of Fathers' Day gift by VB, yes, the beer! And what's the real deal behind Leo dating younger women only? Is there a power dynamic reason or just simply his preference? 

Finally, we look into some latest release tv series and ask why a certain trope of middle-aged women continues to play a big part in our entertainment world. 

Helen's list of movies mentioned: Lucky Grandmother, Meditation Park, The 40-year-old version
