Season 2

This week, I’m joined by author and beauty culture commentator Ellen Atlanta to explore how tweakments, filters and social media are reshaping not just our faces – but the way we see ourselves.

Season 2

Monday, September 8, 2025 • Duration 49:43

We're back! To kick off series 2, I’m joined by the one and only Miriam Margolyes - actor, national treasure, and unapologetic truth-teller. Beloved for her outrageous honesty and infectious humour, Miriam has spent decades stealing scenes on screen and stealing hearts off it. We get into what makes her speak without filters, why shame is a word she never entertains, and how she stays completely, authentically herself. There are conversations about sex, aging, Jewish identity, and exactly why she refuses to hold back even when others might wish she would. Miriam also shares stories that will make you laugh, wince, and maybe even blush - reminding us all that life is richer when lived with courage, mischief, and a healthy disregard for other people’s rules. This is a raw, outrageous, and utterly joyful conversation that will leave you feeling braver, lighter, and inspired to stop apologising for being exactly who you are.
