    Women Unfiltered #1 - Angry Women are Free Women

    Welcome to Women Unfiltered, your new favourite feminist podcast - keeping you informed, inspired and empowered on all things feminism!  Join Steeley and Liv for our first episode in which we explain why we've started this podcast and why we need these conversations around feminism. This week we're diving into key news stories from November, specifically addressing Donald Trump's re-election, Gisele Pelicot's trial in France as well as the viral moment from Saoirse Ronan's interview on Graham Norton. We discuss Mona Eltahawy's book 'The Seven Necessary Sins for Women and Girls' touching on the importance of women expressing anger and this notion that 'Angry Women are Free Women', before rounding off with some mythbusting in which we aim to challenge stereotypes and taboos surrounding victims of sexual violence. Enjoy! TW: This episode contains mentions of abortion, reproductive rights, sexual violence, gender based violence and misogyny. If you feel you will be triggered by any of these topics, please do not listen. You can get your daily dose of feminism from anywhere and we encourage you to put your wellbeing first.

    The Legal Besties #2 - Housing, Cartels, and TV Licences

    In this episode of the Legal Besties Podcast, we dive into an unexpectedly rich mix of topics: housing, cartels, and TV licences. Join us as we explore the power imbalances between landlords and student tenants and how we can reclaim some of that power back. We'll discuss how meat packing cartels may be the reason why the McDonald’s saver menu is not saving us much money anymore. Finally, we unpack the student requirements for needing a TV Licence,  because you may be breaking the law without even knowing it!
