Clotheshorse with Amanda Lee McCarty

Amanda shares one of her favorite miniseries of The Department (her other podcast). Kim and Amanda explore the rise (and then fall) of #girlboss, the commodification of feminism, and what it's like to be a woman working in the fashion industry.

Show Notes

Today rather than a new episode of Clotheshorse, Amanda wanted to share one of her favorite episodes of her other podcast The Department. This is part one of two about #girlboss, the commodification of feminism as a marketing story, and the nefarious beast and capitalist rebrand that is #hustle culture. And oh yeah, there's actually a bonus third episode.  Check them out!!! They are a great tie-in to both everything we’ve been talking about here during #CapitalismMonth and May’s theme of Labor. So please give it a listen. And if you like it, please listen to the second half. Maybe it will inspire you to call in with your story for #LaborMonth!
