The Sleepover Club: What Makes Good Advice? With Tavi Gevinson


Listen Later

This week we're joined by Tavi Gevinson! The actor, writer, and founder of Rookie will be chatting to us about what makes good advice. Inspired by her new podcast, Life Skills By Rookie, we're discussing how the advice we give and receive must be informed by the socio-political context we live within, what we're missing in discussions around self care, how Instagram infographics are warping how we view advice, and much more. Tavi, Ione, and Olivia will also be chatting about whether the emotional catharsis from sharing online is helpful or harmful, the pressure to constantly be creating, and why it's powerful to take a step back.


And of course we had to ask about Gossip Girl!!


The Polyester Podcast is brought to you by Polyester's founding editor in chief Ione Gamble (@ionegamble), and co-hosted and produced by Olivia Graham. Polyester is a self published culture zine exploring intersectional URL feminism in the IRL world. Have faith in your own bad taste!
