Listen on

Episode notes

Journalist and broadcaster, Cathy Newman, in conversation with Arabella Pike, the editor of her bestselling book: Bloody Brilliant Women. They discuss the slow march of progress for women's rights; some of the remarkable women who are illuminated throughout the book; and how we can learn from the mistakes of the past to build a more equal future. "[in 2019] I think what is so inspiring is that there are so many powerful, opinionated women who are determined to make a difference [...] women who know their own mind and are not going to be intimidated and are determined to stand up for what they believe."
