Good Housekeeping, March 1988

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

mercredi 16 octobre 2024 • Durée 59:53

The Mag Hags are back and cooking with gas! This episode Franki and Lucy ponder on some cutting edge household appliances – cordless iron, anyone? Because, yes, Franki is guiding us on a tour through Good Housekeeping, March 1988.

There’s Ovaltine innuendo, shoulder-revealing fashion, and a self-help book extract suggesting that Lucy could be a threat to Franki’s marriage.

Plus, a questionable beauty feature calls for back-up, so Franki speaks to award-winning beauty editor and author Anita Bhagwandas.

Honey, March 1976

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

mercredi 2 octobre 2024 • Durée 53:42

Lucy and Franki are back with more dispatches from vintage women’s glossies.

This week, Lucy is heading to Honey magazine March 1976 – but it’s less Patti Smith and Sex! on the Kings Road, more women named Sue and unequal division of household labour.

We also meet the last of debutantes, contemplate a bath-time workout, and witness a disastrous PR campaign for British Rail.

Meanwhile Franki is underwhelmed by “Strip Monopoly”. And the Mag Hags ponder: did the editorial staff of mid-70s Honey realise they were selling the bucolic lesbian dream?

Cosmopolitan, October 1982

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

mercredi 2 octobre 2024 • Durée 49:52

Welcome to the very first episode of Mag Hags, the podcast that every modern woman should know.

Join Franki and Lucy as they dive into the glossy archives of women’s magazines to find out what's still hot, and what's definitely not.

And where else to begin than the OG of having it all: Cosmopolitan.

Franki has travelled back in time to October 1982, when The Pill turned 21 and publishers were just cottoning on to the idea that women buy books.

Elsewhere, a hapless man gets some Thatcherite therapy and the Mag Hags get some dinner inspo from a truly astonishing advertiser.

Plus, Lucy reveals her daddy issues about His Majesty King Charles III.
