88. Laura Bates
Hey you - it's Crushed by Margaret Cabourn-Smith; the podcast about unrequited love.
This episode I interview brilliant writer, speaker and activist LAURA BATES.
Laura is a ludicrously impressive and articulate human and SO FUN despite the fact that her work is generally super serious. Do check out her books, especially the most recent THE NEW AGE OF SEXISM which is a terrifying account of how AI is affecting our lives when it comes to misogyny. I'm not saying it's a fun read but it's absolutely, profoundly important and gripping.
Thanks for downloading and supporting the podcast. If you can bear to go and tap out a 5 star review for us, that'd be dreamy. Or for some harder financial based support, head for ko-fi.com/crushedbymcs It makes all the difference in keeping this baby alive and thriving and if you've already done that, I LOVE YOU.

86. Poorna Bell
Welcome along to Crushed by Margaret Cabourn-Smith; the podcast about unrequited love.
This episode I talk to awesome writer and speaker POORNA BELL.
I'm a big fan of hers and have been trying to track her down for a couple of years since I was too shy (I know) to approach her at Crushed alumnus Dolly Alderton's book launch. My persistence paid off and I loved talking to her and getting an advance copy of her excellent new novel This Is Fine which is out now and highly recommended. I love that instead of doing a reading from that, she read from her teenage diary.

85. Jessica Curry
Welcome to Crushed by Margaret Cabourn-Smith; the podcast where funny people talk about unrequited love.
Today's episode features excellent BAFTA winning composer JESSICA CURRY. Her album Shielding Songs is available now from jessicacurry.bandcamp.com.
She's on insta @jessica_curry_ She's an extraordinary woman and I loved going through some of her mad crushes. I looked up the quote she mentioned, attributed to comic book artist Tim Kreider -
"If we want the rewards of being loved, we have to submit to the mortification of being known."
I might get it on a poncho.
