This episode is an interview with the journalist Sarah Ditum, discussing her book Toxic and her journalism.
The book is about our treatment of famous women in the Noughties, told through the stories of nine women in particular: Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Aaliyah, Janet Jackson, Amy Winehouse, Kim Kardashian, Chynah and Jennifer Aniston. Sarah explained why she wrote it, the evolution of the book, and how it felt researching that period.
We also discussed Sarah's journalism and what it's been like to write about controversial subjects, and the impact on her friendships, commissions and ability to get a book published.
