The Unlikeable Woman™ Podcast

Charlie Craggs is one of the kindest women you’ll ever meet, so why is she repeatedly cast as the villain?

Once described as "the clapback queen" for sticking up for herself online, the award-winning trans activist, author and actress was also described as 'the voice of a community’ by British Vogue. With such mixed messages from the media world, how does she maintain her sanity, whilst remaining her hilarious self?

In this episode, Charlie and Amy discuss what it means to be “too political” as a creator, and how brands who once exploited the LGBTQ+ and minority communities have suddenly become very quiet. Known for her international campaign Nail Transphobia, her LAMBDA-nominated book To My Trans Sisters and groundbreaking BBC documentary Transitioning Teens, Charlie also discusses her plans to continue the Grenfell conversation, in honour of her best friend.

No one wants to get on the wrong side of Marina Purkiss. An important voice in the UK, known for her quick wit and uncompromising political commentary, she's adored by the internet and goes viral daily for controversial opinions such as "women should be equal" and "people should be able to afford houses." 

In this podcast Marina and Amy discuss the realities of holding the shady establishment to account, including TV tantrums (other people's), dodgy cab drivers, inappropriate sponsorships and the weird, hellish green room at GB News.  Alongside very candid chats about Jacob Rees-Mogg and Piers Morgan, Marina sets out her vision for more honest politics, and why she's tempted to show everyone how it's done. 

The Unlikeable Woman™ podcast is a love letter to women the world's afraid of. Why? Because we're bold, blunt, political, ethical, ambitious and refuse to "play nice". Every episode social psychologist Amy Kean interviews a woman who's changing the world and ruffling feathers at the same time. It's a mindset! It's a movement! And everyone's SO welcome. (But the more Unlikeable you are, the better.)
