Standard Issue Podcast

It's Sunday Chops time again and this week we've a bit more from that cracking interview with Anglia Ruskin University's Dr Terri Simpkin. We asked the expert on Impostor Phenomenon to fix Hannah and she gave it her best go. And dished out some interesting facts and handy tips while she was at it.

In this episode, team Noonan, Dunleavy and Offord do a metric shit-tonne of learning. Seriously. Dr Terri Simpkin explains all about imposter phenomenon (and why it's not a syndrome) and cures Hannah (crikey!); career coach Sheila Chandra and actor/theatremaker Lisa Hammond, aka EastEnders' Donna Yates talk being disabled creatives, how government rhetoric, not to mention cuts, is making life harder for people with disabilities and reminisce about Grange Hill; travel writer Laura Jackson shares some corking tips for birds flying solo, and Cambridge cox Sophie Shapter talks the Boat Race. Obviously.

Jizzclowns abound in the Bush Telegraph and Netflix gets the starring role in Sexism of the Week. Also, there is A LOT of Phil Collins. Like, A LOT. Brace yourselves for Dunleavy Does Disney's Tarzan, kids – you can feel Phil coming in the air tonight. Oh lord.

For this Chops, we were lucky enough to be joined by writer Helen Walmsley-Johnson, whose new memoir, Look What You Made Me Do, is a devastating account of domestic violence, specifically focusing on coercive control.

It's Saturday Bitchin' and this time our pal Gabby Hutchinson-Crouch is rightly furious with Khloe Kardashian calling her app to keep your house tidy Khlo-C-D. THAT'S NOT WHAT OCD IS! says Gabby – but much more articulately and with jokes about bears.

In this episode, team Noonan, Dunleavy and Offord chat to author Helen Walmsley-Johnson about her new memoir, Look What You Made Me Do, a devastating but brilliant account of domestic violence and coercive control. Language enthusiast Kathy Salaman joins the team to discuss all things swearing and finally put to rest the question of whether profanity's a sign of low intelligence or being really fucking cool (place your bets now, kids), and Our Future Our Choice co-founder Lara Spirit talks about the youth campaign aiming to democratically stop Brexit.

There's ass-kicking birds, evil laughter and Trump ridiculousness in the Bush Telegraph, makeup and Kate Middleton in Sexism of the Week, sportsings in Jenny Off The Block and Dunleavy Does Disney's Up.

Oh, and though we don't usually do a warning and cuss like sailors, this week, we are particularly sweary-ass motherfuckers. Join in – it's fun!

It's the day we celebrate mams, so we decided to ask the excellent Molly Sheridan of Reek Perfume back on the podcast for a chat with her mum – and business partner – Sara Sheridan. Heather Pearson of The Grantidote asks the questions, as Molly and Sara give us the lowdown on what it's like to be part of a smelly mother-daughter enterprise: the highs, the lows and the inter-generational differences in their respective takes on life. 

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy International Women’s Day – up the women!

To celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women, we’re running a series of interviews with some kick-ass broads. Ayesha Hazarika talks to us about politics, comedy and how the two can go hand-in-hand; Laura Bates chats about her new book Misogynation and some truly startling facts and figues about everyday sexism. Historian and Newnham fellow Dr Gill Sutherland explains the important role Millicent Fawcett played in the suffrage movement and England rugby captain Sarah Hunter talks sport in general and rugby in particular. 

Here’s political advisor-turned-standup Ayesha Hazarika telling us how women in politics are doing better than ever before but there’s still a long old way to go. 

It seems exactly the right time to big up some charities doing excellent work for women, but desperately in need of your cash, should you have some to spare: Refuge, Rape Crisis, the Abortion Support Network, the Homeless Period, Women in Sport, The Samaritans and just putting a few extra items, including sanitary hygiene products, in your local food bank.
