This week, we talk about a very hot-button issue: art! Our main course is the Spectator article Art is Eating Itself by Emma Webb. This discussion leads us through a delectable buffet of Modernism, Feminism, Marxism...and Hannah Gadsby.

NOTES FROM THE EDITOR:

1. We sometimes use incorrect pronouns for Hannah Gadsby. This was not intentional, and we apologize for the error.

Welcome to the first episode of Tender Subject! This week, we're going over the whats and whys of this podcast. Why cannibalism? Why aren't we talking about True Crime? We also talk a little bit about the current cannibal craze in media and why we always need to justify our enjoyment. Finally, we do a show & tell for each other about something we might not do an entire episode on but wanted to talk about anyway.

Media Discussed:

2022 Was the Year of the Cannibal. What Does That Say About Us?

We the Parasites by A.V. Marraccini

Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patrick Süskind
