She was recently a guest (for the second time) on the Decoding the Gurus podcast. I can’t remember if it’s come up here before, but DtG is interesting — an anthropologist and a psychologist dissect various online gurus and try to understand the appeal, etc. (It is, however, ridiculously long, as episodes routinely run over 2 hours, in part because they play a lot of excerpts from the podcasts they’re discussing. It’s very much a “have on in the background while I’m doing other things” kind of podcast for me.)
Predictably, someone in the DtG subreddit is quite cross at the hosts and thinking about unsubscribing because they failed to challenge Lewis on her alleged TERFdom.
Looking forward to checking out Lewis’s program.

Wow. Those are great. Thanks for sharing.
