Summary

Salena Godden’s Mrs Death Misses Death is receiving rave reviews and has already been snapped up for film and telly by Idris Elba’s Green Door Pictures, so we got Hazel Davis to talk to the poet, author, standup and activist about her oddly prescient debut novel. Meanwhile, Jen fired up the Zoom to chat with Amy Thomson, founder of the Moody Month app and author of Moody: A Woman's 21st Century Hormone Guide. There’s cake AND masturbation, so definitely put the kettle on. Over in Rated or Dated, Mick should absolutely be apologising for her attempts at a Scottish accent and Hannah’s trying to keep it all down as they watch 1996’s Trainspotting. Morally murky? Proper funny? Cool Britannia? All of the above? Ya fuckin’ dancer! Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
